Stephen was able to teach my significant other about multiple topics ,including inverse functions, finding the vertex of a parabola, graphing functions, and several other important topics in the College Algebra course. My significant other had previously failed the first time he took the College Algebra course, and this time around, he passed his final with an 83, without having studied at all before Stephen! Stephen was an absolute lifesaver.
