Namaste! Hello, students and parents! Thanks for visiting my profile!

PLEASE BE SURE TO READ ABOUT TUTORING POLICIES BEFORE CONTACTING AND SCHEDULING.

Tutoring students is my passion and my career; I love it. I honestly cannot imagine doing anything else with my life! :-)

Prioritizing quality over quantity is essential in educational services. After a decade of teaching math and language nationally and internationally, my passion for helping individuals understand these subjects has grown mature and refined. I am committed to helping students improve their math skills and achieve their full potential. My collaborative tutoring approach guides the student to become independent and resourceful learners. During the sessions, students can feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as they learn from both the communication/translation in the session. Additionally, I aim to assist my students in developing a robust foundation of mathematical knowledge and critical thinking skills.

As an experienced educator, I've worked with students of all ages and levels and tailored my teaching techniques to meet their unique needs and learning styles. Ultimately, my goal is to inspire and empower students to become confident, self-sufficient/independent learners and researchers, ready to tackle any challenge inside and outside the classroom.

Language proficiency and speaking, reading, writing, and doing mathematics are all vital for your academic success. Are you ready to begin your learning journey?

The Best Tutor I ever had

Stephen started with me at the beginning of the semester to help me get through College algebra since this was my first time taking it online and I can proudly say that by the end of the semester not only did I finish the class with a 93%(A) but I was able to find this interest for the subject itself. Stephens ability to go over and beyond for the people he is tutoring by not only offering google classrooms where he will post all the material he goes over with you but by also projecting his love for math into the lesson as well is truly great and the best I have experienced so far through tutoring services. Instead of making the lesson about getting the answer and that's the end of it, Stephen finds a way to bring more life and sometimes comedic tendencies to what you are learning to the point where if you have enough sessions with him it'll feel more like solving a game/puzzle and less like a problem that the majority of people are used to. I honestly don't know how well I would've done in the class if it wasn't for the countless hours and time Stephen made for me to ensure I pass this class to the best of my ability. 10/10 tutor rating and would highly recommend to anyone!

Very knowledgeable and patient

Stephen knew from the beginning how to work with my son. I have had several math tutors, and none of them seemed to engage him. Now, my son looks forward to learning from Stephen. I can hear Stephen asking questions and my son responding. It's a wonderful turnaround. I would highly recommend him.

Maritha, 7 lessons with Stephen

Amazing tutor

Stephen helped me work through my online Pre-calc course. He was very helpful and knowedgable in all of the units. He was able to help me though every problem I faced. He was also very patient and nice. Definitely I will use Stephen again if or when I need a math tutor. I highly recommend Stephen as a tutor.

Sonia, 17 lessons with Stephen

Great tutor!

Stephen is a very knowledgeable and patient tutor who helped my son immensely in preparation for his finals. My son has not only developed a strong understanding of complex mathematical concepts but has also grown in confidence, thanks to his supportive and encouraging teaching style. Stephen explains challenging topics in a clear and engaging way, making the subject both accessible and enjoyable. My son always feels comfortable asking questions, knowing he will receive thoughtful and respectful guidance. I 100% recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a tutor.

Kind and Understanding College Algebra Tutor!

Stephen tutored my boyfriend, helping him prepare for his College Algebra final—my significant other struggles with ADHD, as well as difficulty when it comes to consistently studying. 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.

Great tutor for high school math.

My son was looking for a brush-up in Pre-calculus ahead of his finals. Stephen was able to jump in over several weeks, helping him work through a series of problems and getting my son up to speed in the class. Stephen is patient and diligent, genuinely caring about his students. Highly recommend!

John, 5 lessons with Stephen

Super patient and flexible tutor!

Stephen tutored my son for several months to help him survive his math class. He was engaging, flexible, great at communicating what they worked on, individualizing lessons based on teacher communications and working with schedule changes. My kid only survived math because of Stephen and by the end of the year he was actually confident about taking his final exam. Stephen saw his strengths and struggles and figured out how to play to his strengths and help with things impacted by learning disability. There are no words to fully communicate how appreciative we are of Stephen’s help this year! Best tutor ever!

Christine, 23 lessons with Stephen

Best Tutor

Stephen has helped my son tremendously since the very first lesson. We wasted months with another tutor and was fortunate enough to find Stephen! He is patient and very clear with his teachings and helped my son recognize the confidence he already had. We are so grateful to Stephen!

Jeanette, 7 lessons with Stephen

Very helpful

Stephen worked with my daughter on her Honors Algebra work that she was struggling with. He was able to break it down and explain it so she understood. She was able to complete the problems and provide explanation after her session with Stephen.

Candice, 7 lessons with Stephen

Super patient and flexible tutor!

Stephen was flexible about setting up a time, patient with a not so organized kid, and got through a ton of material in just the first lesson! We are so appreciative of the help!
