Wonderful tutor, great to work with
We highly recommend Steven for tutoring in English: writing, editing reading comprehension, literature. He is superb! Steven has worked with our high school son and on occasion our college daughter. He has helped with all kinds of writing for different classes, English, vocabulary, grammar, SAT, ACT, college admission essays, presentations, editing, resumes, building self confidence and more. Spending many hours with Steven, in person, on the phone, and online, we can vouch for his excellent character as he is kind, patient, knowledgeable, honest, dependable, and really takes an interest in his clients. He has gone the extra mile for our son. We have used many tutors over the years and Steven by far surpasses all of them. He has gone beyond our expectations. Our son who always hated writing and English said, "Writing is fun." and "I've learned more this semester from Steven than in all my years of school in English." Steven has made himself completely available to our children 24/7 and they feel extremely comfortable calling on him. Our children will continue to call on Steven for help through college and through their journey in life.

Extremely Knowledgeable and capable tutor/teacher
He helped me raised my English ACT score from a 22 to a 34. He is an amazing teacher and very professional in all aspects. I have a lot of positives I could say, but I would rather just let the numbers do the talking.

Excellent Tutor
My daughter has taken Eight lessons from Steven and so far so good. My daughter says that she learns a lot from revising her own writing under Steven’s instructions. I also want to thank Wyzant for letting my daughter have the chance to learn from such an excellent tutor.

Patient tutor
My son isn't a big fan of English class but has enjoyed his time with Steven. He's finally gaining an understanding of how to properly write an essay and how to express his thoughts. I appreciate the literal line-by-line approach of working through a writing session. My son who was apprehensive in the beginning now looks forward to his lessons.

Steven did an excellent job as an academic coach and tutor for my son. He immediately was able to assess his needs and guide him appropriately on an assignment that he was struggling with.

Exceptionally Knowledgable
In my first meeting with Steven as we kick off a more thorough and in-depth course of study, he very effectively summarized the high points of literary history necessary to get me current to our starting point. With simple detail and choice language he not only covered significant substantive ground, he made the lesson interesting and memorable. I'm sort of snobby and I was very impressed. I am looking forward to working with him much more.

Knowledgable and caring.
Steven is an amazing tutor. His individual lessons blend together to provide an overview on the building blocks of writing. His analysis and examples help my son understand how his own voice can be found and put down on paper.
