About Steven


Bio

I have been teaching and tutoring more than 20 years in mathematics. I use good listening, simple language, and a sense of humor to make difficult subjects easy to understand and fun by using everyday language and real-world examples. I also have a love for the creative use for technology which allows me to make instructional videos for student remediation.

I have been teaching and tutoring more than 20 years in mathematics. I use good listening, simple language, and a sense of humor to make difficult subjects easy to understand and fun by using everyday language and real-world examples. I also have a love for the creative use for technology which allows me to make instructional videos for student remediation. I have benefited from extended time with a large variety of student populations, from College, to high school AP students, to at-risk student populations. I did this to be able to learn how to help all students, not just the high achievers. I firmly believe anyone who is willing to learn can. I always take time to help students learn and not just how to learn math. I will be more than willing to help you learn how to save time and frustration by learning how to correctly take notes and study. This, believe me, is half the battle in making learning fun again. As long as you are willing to learn and make it a priority, I guarantee your success. I hope to hear from you.

Fantastic!!!!

Steven is phenomenal! We contacted him desperate for help on a short time frame. He went above and beyond to accommodate us. He motivated my son and gave him confidence that was astounding. I have no doubt we will use him in the future. His passion for what he does is obvious. Super professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot thank him enough!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for the kind words. It makes a tutor's job much easier when you have a willing student and a thoroughly supportive parent. It's a perfect world for education. You and Austin are both exceptional.

Execellent Tutor

Thank you Steve for assisting my son in preparing for his college algebra exam. He ended with a B in the class! You broke it down in a way my son could understand and remember. I highly recommend Steve as he is dependable and easy to work with and very effective.

Great Instruction

Steven helped me prepare for the college PERT exam. He was extremely professional and helpful. He explained the methods used to find the answers in a way I could easily understand and remember. I have no problems recommending him as a tutor.

First week has been a success!

Steven has been helping my junior with her online pre-calculus course through Florida Virtual. Thus far my daughter has been very happy with the tutoring, she is more confident in the class and her grade is already improving. It was very hard for my husband and I to provide the help she needed with pre-calculus as it had been so many years since we took the class. It's been a great help to us all and we look forward to working with Steven throughout the semester.

Steven was able to break down difficult concepts quickly and simply!

My son was able to complete several complicated algebra problems, that have many steps, without difficulty after his sessions with Steven. He was much more confident and relaxed about algebra than I have ever seen him. Thanks Steven for offering to help my son develop a good habit of doing daily practice problems. This is just what he needs in order to maintain the skills he has gained while he is in between tutoring sessions. I recommend Steve if your child needs help in Algeria 2.

A great tutor, knowledgeable and amazing use of skype!!

My son is very happy with the calculus BC lessons he receives from Steven. He clearly explains all concepts and never wastes his time. My son sends him the problems he has beforehand and Steven works them out so that during the lesson they are moving as quickly as possible. Also, Steven sends him useful review sheets through email when the lessons are over. I highly recommend Steven as a tutor for Calculus!
