Very experienced and straightforward teacher, knows all USACO questions so well. We will definitely continue our lessons with Steven throughout my son's competition in USACO. Strongly recommend!

This was excellent time spent with a great Tutor that has teaching experience. Unless you have been a formal educator you are in deficit as a tutor. Steven provided everything I expected to learn. Thank you Sir!
- Richard C. from Indianapolis, IN
Steven is a phenomenal teacher! He has an incredible knowledge of computer science and can teach any level from high school through college. We highly recommend him!
- M P. from Ponte Vedra Beach, FL
Steven has done an amazing job helping me with a project I felt was impossible. He?s helped me in almost every step of my php html web design project and instead of doing the project for me he walks me through it and is extremely patient with all the questions I have. Very knowledgeable and doesn?t make you feel bad for what you don?t know or understand. Highly recommend.

- Wesley M. from Knoxville, TN
Awesome instructor! Super knowledgeable on the topic, walked me through the explanation of why things work the way they do and used references or additional explanations to explain the topics clearly. Answered every question fully and made sure I understood everything we covered at the end of the lesson. Super grateful and appreciative for the time!

My son is new to USACO and he had gotten stuck with some USACO Bronze problems. Steven guided him through those problems, and gave him useful tips and tools that will greatly help him when working on other problems. It was a great tutoring session!

Steven is absolutely the best teacher! He is patient and understanding. He has a vast knowledge of various computer languages and greatly helped me with Java. I highly recommend him.
- Adrienne O. from Newnan, GA
Steven knows a lot about CS. He is too advanced but slows down to break it it down into steps so his student understands. He is very positive, supportive and consistent. Thank you Steve.
- DIVYA A. from Costa Mesa, CA
Steven was EXTREMELY knowledgeable and we accomplished so much in an hour. I highly, highly recommend working with him. He definitely helped me understand some pretty complex algorithms that I needed clarity on.
- E A. from Eden, AZ

- Adrienne O. from Newnan, GA
He helped my daughter with learning python when she was in a bind. She said he was an excellent teacher. He got on Zoom right away to help her. I highly recommend him.
- Aldith L. from Fort Myers, FL
Helped with with algorithms and walking through the different steps needed. I don't have a huge CS background, but working with Steve made some of the concepts I was learning much more clear.
- Anonymous A. from Houston, TX
Steven helped me with a c/c++ programming assignment which I struggled on. He first explained there were different ways we could solve the code for the program, and went through each one and helped me gain more confidence as I struggle with coding. Listening to him teach helped me understand more, and get my assignment finished at the same time.
- Azza L. from San Diego, CA
Patiently and clearly explained Python code for card game assignment and helped instill confidence in my son. Very flexible in being available, even on short notice. First class tutor. Thank you.
- Ben O. from Beverly Hills, CA
I found Steven 2 years ago. I wish I had used him back then. I was trying to be cheap. That will never happen again. While most tutors didn't understand the classes my son was taking, Steven did. My son was very excited, and so was I. My son turned his project in a week before the due date. Yes, Steven may cost more than some tutors, but believe me, he knows his stuff.
- Cherilyn D. from Morrow, GA
Steven was patient and helpful. He took his time to help me figure out what I was really trying to do. He was available when I needed him and easy to schedule. His communication on his hours was great. I highly recommend Steven.
