Steve G. received his BS in electrical engineering from Montana State University and his Master's from Utah State University in environmental engineering. Steve recently moved from the Washington DC area and now resides in the Salt Lake City area. In his professional career Steve has worked on a variety of programs from groundbreaking handheld software programming to cleaning up superfund sites for the EPA. Steve discovered his teaching and mentoring skills in college and has continued to work with youth to assist them in getting all they can out of their education and hopefully projecting that positive attitude and self esteem into all aspects of their lives. He especially enjoyed tutoring his sons to foster their interests in math, science, and sports; his goal is to make tutoring fun and interesting. A firm belief of Steve's is that there is more than one way to teach a student and he can customize his teaching methods to fit a particular person. Steve loves to hear about progress from his students and has recently had one student double their SAT math score after being tutored - a very rewarding surprise on his part. In his spare time, Steve enjoys hiking in the mountains, kayaking, and keeping up on fascinating trivia and facts. You never know when it will come in handy!

I have mentored and tutored students for over 15 years. I have taught study skills to freshmen entering college and have helped them to achieve lofty goals.

All three are in computer science and the oldest son graduated from MIT with a double masters in computer science and electrical engineering. I use time management and various aids to help students look at studying in a positive light.

Steven G. has provided information and guidance that helped my son right away. His test scores have increased, not to mention his confidence with Algebra 2. The tutoring sessions with Steven have proven to be a great investment for my son and his future. He doesn't come home from school stressed out from frustration anymore. We are very please with Steven's tutoring.

Great tutor

Steve gave us some great suggestions before the first tutor session. He worked well with my son and sent us home with homework to work on what he taught. He is very flexible and easy to work with!
