Amazing, patient tutor

Steven is an amazing, patient tutor who is talented in what he does and explanation of complex topics. For what I thought would cover an hour for our tutor session, Steven covered it in 50 minutes due to the excellent explanation and in depth coverage he was able to complete, leaving no room for extra questions as he covered above and beyond, giving me complex insight into the topic.

Patient

I appreciate that he takes things slow and check for understanding. Explains things on my level which is a beginner level and uses real world experiences to relate physics which can be a very hard class for some.
