Bio

I'm a highly experienced tutor with several years of classroom experience, teaching English to Japanese junior high school students and more than 10 years of tutoring in various capacities. I began by tutoring classmates in Math, Science and Economics while in high school and have continued to do so in volunteer roles as an adult, teaching through the Minds Matter and Colorado Youth for a Change organizations.

I'm a highly experienced tutor with several years of classroom experience, teaching English to Japanese junior high school students and more than 10 years of tutoring in various capacities. I began by tutoring classmates in Math, Science and Economics while in high school and have continued to do so in volunteer roles as an adult, teaching through the Minds Matter and Colorado Youth for a Change organizations.

I was fortunate to attend both the number one college in the country (Williams) and the best-ranked business school in the world (Wharton). I'm eager to impart the same level of understanding and engagement that I enjoy with many quantitative subjects to my students.

I'm currently employed as a finance consultant in the renewable energy industry and eager to fill up my remaining hours with one of my true loves, teaching.

Patient and Honest

He pretty much listened to my thoughts and ideas and helped me process information. Along with helping me guide me towards the direction I needed to go to continue my learning process.

Justin, 1 lesson with Steve

Highly knowledgeable and excellent teacher

Steve taught me complicated finance concepts in terms I could understand. Not only that, but he did so on a expedited basis - squeezing in several sessions before my final exam. He even woke up in the early morning hours while on vacation in Hawaii to tutor me right before my exam! I highly, highly recommend him.

Great Finance Assistance

Steve was a great help in working through a finance case study. He was able to analyze problems, help set up solutions in excel and explain the underlying concepts along the way. I would recommend Steve for any level of finance.

Nicholas, 1 lesson with Steve

Amazing Tutor and very patient

Steve is so awesome and very understanding and patient. I have had a lot of tutors and he really understands how important it is to stay patient and if the student needs further explanation to assist with that. I went to him for the first time this week and I am already going back again! 100% recommend!
