Cameron Ko

Hi, my name is Cameron Ko. I started tutoring with Kid By Kid in the 6th grade in 2020 and founded the KidBy Kid chapter at Black Mountain Middle SchooI. When I first found out about the program, I was most excited about working with students from underserved communities and sharing my passion for learning. I am grateful for the guidance provided by founder Dax Gutekunst and feel fortunate to have received an award as a top tutor with over 80 individual lessons.As I enter 9th grade in the fall of 2023, I am on the Leadership Team of Westview High School’s chapter of Kid By Kid. I look forward to helping new tutors get started as it wasn’t long ago that I was shadowing a senior KBK tutor. I currently meet with my learner weekly to help reinforce English and math concepts that they are learning in school and need more practice with. During lesson breaks, I like to keep things fun by playing online educational games with my learner. Outside of KBK, I am a competitive swimmer and water polo player who enjoys traveling to new places,exploring different cities, and trying out local cuisines. I have also contributed to my former school by being a leader on campus as an Associate Student Body officer for two years. My favorite subjects in school are math and science and I plan to pursue engineering courses in high school. My interests include playing the trumpet and playing chess with my friends. My experience at Kid by Kid has been extremely rewarding and I would highly recommend it to others!
