python lessons

I am very glad to have found Steven on Wyzant. I hired him to help me in learning python while implementing a project I had in mind. Steven is very knowledgable about programming languages and is very patient and articulate in communicating the main concepts in a very easy to understand way. He is extreemly flexible in tailoring the lessons as per the requirements and comes to the meetings with well defined plans and follow throughs. Would highly recommend him.

Vinay, 10 lessons with Steven

Knowledgeable and experienced tutor

I had a great tutoring experience with Steven. He took the time to help me work through a number of concepts that I struggled with and patiently explained to me the reasoning in the logic when writing code. In addition to his experience with programming and his ability to teach concepts, Steven was a good communicator in my lesson and made me feel comfortable when sharing the limits of my knowledge and skills.

FastAPI -- excellent help

I'm a hobbyist, and Steve is a professional, but the session was excellent. He let me explain myself, and he was able to solve my problem pretty quickly. I learned a lot along the way. The topic was FastAPI, and I learned things from him that seem to be missing from the internet. Perhaps they are not, but this session was a real time-saver,

Great Tutor

Steven was really helpful! He helped me walk through the implementation of a python-based project. Totally recommend working with him!

Munyrah, 1 lesson with Steven

Exceptional Tutor

Thorough, lucid and detailed explanations on a number of topics and great to work with. He obviously knows his subject matter inside and out and has admirable patience as the students (cough.. me) digest and put together the pieces. Definitely recommended.

Peter, 1 lesson with Steven

Clear, knowledgeable and effective tutor.

Steven quickly taught me key areas of Django. As we moved from one point to another, he always offered several ways to cover the material. His clarity and measured pace made the time spent very productive. Steven knows his Django.

E., 1 lesson with Steven

Thorough and patient tutor

Steven worked with my nine year old son to help him learn Python basics to be more prepared for a programming camp. He was very patient and thorough, helping my son complete a homework assignment for camp, and was able to establish a nice personal rapport with him from the very start.

Chelsey, 5 lessons with Steven

Knowledgeable and friendly tutor

Today was our first day. My son Ryan was very comfortable with Steven. Ryan said Steven made things simpler for him. He understood the slides database better. He is very up-to-date and knows exactly what Ryan class requires. Looking forward to see him again.

Sazia, 1 lesson with Steven

Excellent Tutor

Steven is a great tutor. Very patient and has a plan of teaching ready when you start tutoring. If he didn't help me, I would have not been able to understand and complete my assignment for class. He is very knowledgeable and was one of the few tutors that knew how to tutor TCP and UDP Socket Programming.
