Amazing Tutor

Steve has been nothing less than absolutely amazing in helping our daughter learn Spanish. Not only is he patient, a great listener, sincere and kind in his style of teaching but his pace and understanding of how my daughter learns is what has helped her grow through each lesson. Steve has a wealth of knowledge and sincerely cares about what he teaches. We knew from the start that he was a great fit for our daughter and look forward to how this will contribute to her future. Thank you Steve for all your help and attention to helping our daughter. We appreciate you very much!

Patient and thorough

My son loved this tutor! Steve was very patient, consistent, and communicative. My son is normally a really shy guy but he opened up with Steve. My son said that Steve made a really big difference in his understanding of practice in a really short time. We will use him again.
