I love helping people! Whether it's learning math, writing, reading, etc. or playing sports, I really enjoy seeing others succeed via my assistance. I try to relate to students in whatever they enjoy and in doing so, apply concepts to our like interests to work through difficult subjects as well as to help foster a good, professional relationship. I have tutored 100s of students in math, science, standardized testing, and English in the past and they have enjoyed resounding success and continue to reach out for my assistance. I look forward to working with and meeting many students and parents while helping them succeed in any way I can. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy playing sports (golf, basketball, softball, volleyball), playing with my dog, and hanging out with my wife. In addition, I work as a meteorologist and oceanographer following my graduation at Penn State University with a BS in Meteorology. Finally, I earned a Master's degree in Physical Oceanography from MIT and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution while researching how hurricanes affect the ocean below.

I have been tutoring for a few years, love assisting others, and am ready to help. I hope we can work together. Thank you!

Within the U.S. Navy, we rely on the use of Microsoft Outlook as a critical means of communication and planning. As such, I have a strong background in email, calendar usage, and more as I have used this program for my 12 years in service. While it is challenging to navigate at first, it is a powerful tool that I can help anyone to become comfortable using.

Elementary Science

As a meteorologist and oceanographer in the U.S. Navy, I have the field and academic experience and passion to be able to instruct key concepts to students. In science, there is nothing more valuable than relating concepts to idea individuals can grasp. For example, in meteorology, the pressure gradient force is a challenging concept for some, but everyone can relate to squeezing a balloon, where the air wants to move from your hands (high pressure) to the other side of the balloon (lower pressure). Connections like this can make the difference in students' understanding of all concepts, from the basic to the advanced!

Expert and compassionate tutor

Stephen was so great in a lot of ways. Firstly, he is an expert in his field. He took time to understand my needs and then proceeded to help me find what I was looking for and then taught me by explaining in layman terms that could help me understand. Coming from a background of limited meteorology knowledge, this was the best I could hope for. Thank you so much Stephen.

Great tutor with a human approach to the ASVAB

I came into finding Stephan through Wyzant.com to learn as much as I can about the ASVAB. He made learning the equations, and understanding the steps very easy. He has his own equations that he can explain with you or you can bring your own from various Apps. He's well rounded and available. I passed my ASVAB with a 35 point boosts because of him!

Knowledgeable tutor

Stephan is very patient and works through all the problems to bring an understanding of that topic in a way that is easier to understand. He is very thorough.

Mandy, 8 lessons with Stephan

Great Teacher

Stephan starts a plan at the beginning of the session to evaluate where you need the most help in. Throughout the session we found weak spots which were strengthened in that one session. He goes through problems, let’s you try to figure it out on your own. Then helps you throughout the problem. He is a great tutor especially if you are trying to raise your score on the asvab.

Stevie, 4 lessons with Stephan

Excellent Tutor

Stephan is an excellent tutor. He's very understanding and unashamed to admit a mistake but also work with you through the "problem." Stephan is also great at explaining the method in getting to the resolution, as well as the easier path to getting the answer.

I have been working with Stephan for three years and he is a great tutor for earth science and paper writing. He really knows how to make complex ideas in the science field understandable. Thank you so much for everything you have done for me since we met. You made my college journey so much easier. I will not be able to get straight A's without your support!
