Testimonials
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!
Robert F. from Marlborough, MA 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.
Christine D. from Stow, MA 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!
Elaine K. from Sudbury, MA 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!
Mary Kay M. from Berlin, MA 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.
Michelle J. from Acton, MA 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!
Yang L. from Acton, MA 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.
