Steve

Steve has a great way of breaking down the lessons step-by-step. After only three sessions, my son's grades are on the upswing. Nice, positive, and calm approach.

Steve arrived right on time and got established quickly, getting right into the heart of the material with my son. After an hour and a half, my son felt more confident about the difficult problems they'd covered. My son is looking forward to more sessions.

My daughter has worked with Steve for 2 school years now, for Honors Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra 2. She has been able to keep her grades at a high level, and her confidence in her math ability is high. Steve has helped her in her thinking about math and problem solving, her technique and skills especially in word problems, and in preparation for many tests. I hope that my daughter will continue to work with Steve during her Junior year for Pre-calculus and Statistics/Probability courses.

Steve has been a terrific math tutor for our son. According to our son, "Steve is kind, very helpful, he guides me through the problems in a gentle way, and makes me feel successful." Math has always been difficult for our son and has caused a lot of frustration. Now, he willingly and happily heads over to Steve each week. We are thrilled!

Steve tutored our son for pre-calc during his junior year in high school. He was great. Steve was extremely patient and always spent as much time as was necessary to help our son master the material. He was reliable and extremely flexible when schedule changes were necessary. We felt lucky to have found him through Wyzant.

I am extremely pleased with the help Steve has been able to give my daughter in Geometry. He explains the material thoroughly, is extremely patient, and in a very short time, we have seen very positive results on her tests and work at school! He is very responsive, even was able to schedule additional sessions before a test. Clearly, Steve made a difference for our daughter!

Steve stepped in at a time when I suddenly lost my existing tutor and was in dire straights as my kids really struggle in math. He righted the ship immediately. Within one session he has my kids organized, focused, understanding and ready to succeed! I strongly recommend Steve!

Cheryl M. from Acton, MA

An excellent teacher and tutor! Steve is able to focus in on where I need help, explain things so I understand them, and seems to have a thorough understanding of math topics. Recommended!

Steve did an excellent job this year with our son on 9th grade honors algebra. Steve identified the areas that our son had not mastered in the first marking period and did a review and teaching of that material to get him understanding and up to speed. Steve then aligned his weekly work with our son to match the lessons and materials that was current in school (Steve got a copy of the text book on his own to prepare the weekly tutoring session.) He also set up a home study plan for our son. In total Steve did about eight tutoring sessions (one per week with our son). The result has been that our son went from a D in the first marking period to a B in the second marking period. He also has become more motivated to succeed in his math, and as a result Steve and we agreed that we could stop his tutoring sessions; but if he has any difficulties in the future we will certainly utilize Steve again. Steve was very flexible and accommodating to schedules and length of session as needed, and is a very nice guy. Highly recommended.

Steve is a great tutor and we are very lucky to find him. He is very patient and experienced. He found out my daughter's problem after first class. He helped my daughter become more mindful when doing math work. He also helped her going through SAT prep sessions, which greatly helped her improve her SAT score from 700 to 760. We were very happy about the result. Thank you Steve!

Cassie M. from Sudbury, MA

We used Steve for two years as a math tutor. My son was initially reluctant to use a tutor, but Steve made him feel comfortable from the first session. He is very patient, and methodical. My son's math grades rose dramatically, and he actually enjoyed doing math with Steve. We highly recommend him as a tutor.

Sandhya D. from Acton, MA

His methodical, thorough and calm teaching style is really taking the fear and frustration out of tackling some of the hard problems.

Peter H. from Bedford, MA

Steve was fantastic. My son actually came away saying he felt good that we contacted him and feels like he will finally be able to understand Geometry.

Oscar M. from Concord, MA

Steve takes a sincere interest in helping our son. He has an expert knowlege of the material. He is also very good at diagnosing his strengths and weaknesses which enables him to make suggestions how we can get additional help for him from scooll since our son has an IEP. Highly, highly recommend him.

Marya T. from Littleton, MA

Steve is patient and knows how to work with teenagers. He can quickly pinpoint where the trouble areas may be and then works with the student to strengthen those skills.
