Kyle's career working with youth spans over four states and over two decades.  His experiences range from settings as diverse as youth choir director, independent study leader, classroom teacher, and educational administrator.

Kyle's former student, now a student at Cornell Law School, writes of him:

Throughout all educational institutions I have attended, ranging from secondary education to law school, Kyle stands out as the most pragmatic educator, whose pedagogical effectiveness and genuine concern for students’ academic needs were rarely matched by others.

Students sing in Kyle's living room as part of one of his famous "Ribs and Karaoke" events.
Kyle has an infectious ability to push students outside of their comfort zones and to explore new things, whether that's sharing with them his passion for the art of bonsai . . . or simply goading them into singing karaoke at his famous "Ribs and Karoake" events.  A parent of a former advisee writes:

I wanted to give you a sense of Mr. Jones beyond his amazing academic pedigree.  He is an educator who puts his students first.  He is able to share his knowledge in ways that can be easily understood and he has a keen sense of identifying a problem and solving it.
