My daughter has taken Eight lessons from Steven and so far so good. My daughter says that she learns a lot from revising her own writing under Steven?s instructions. I also want to thank Wyzant for letting my daughter have the chance to learn from such an excellent tutor.
- Lynn H. from Ada, MI
My son loves his tutor and enjoys studying further with Steven. He is very experienced and knowledgeable to help teenagers to fall in love with reading and writing. My son got a higher grade in writing recently and feels more confident that he can write quickly with rich resources. I think confidence is the first step for a good writer!

He helped me raised my English ACT score from a 22 to a 34. He is an amazing teacher and very professional in all aspects. I have a lot of positives I could say, but I would rather just let the numbers do the talking.

I love steven he has great stories, funny accents, and is an awesome person. Also very talented and passionate. Steven and I have been working on English essays and SAT and he helped me score over 600 on the English section of SAT and I have started really enjoying the writing process. -Keller

My son isn't a big fan of English class but has enjoyed his time with Steven. He's finally gaining an understanding of how to properly write an essay and how to express his thoughts. I appreciate the literal line-by-line approach of working through a writing session. My son who was apprehensive in the beginning now looks forward to his lessons.
- Kimberly G. from Holly Springs, NC
Steven did an excellent job as an academic coach and tutor for my son. He immediately was able to assess his needs and guide him appropriately on an assignment that he was struggling with.
- Jenn V. from Caldwell, NJ
Steven is a wonderful English tutor. He has helped both of my children with writing, vocabulary, and grammar. His knowledge has made a remarkable difference in their school work.
- Amy P. from Mc Lean, VA
In my first meeting with Steven as we kick off a more thorough and in-depth course of study, he very effectively summarized the high points of literary history necessary to get me current to our starting point. With simple detail and choice language he not only covered significant substantive ground, he made the lesson interesting and memorable. I'm sort of snobby and I was very impressed. I am looking forward to working with him much more.
- Lindsay P. from Jarbidge, NV
Steven is an amazing tutor. His individual lessons blend together to provide an overview on the building blocks of writing. His analysis and examples help my son understand how his own voice can be found and put down on paper.
- Jonathan J. from Woodland Hills, CA
My daughter was happy after her first lesson with Steven. He is enthusiastic and encouraging. He takes her interests into account for his lesson plan. I am glad that my daughter has the chance to learn with Steven
- Tram D. from Sunnyvale, CA
We reached out to Steven to help my daughter during college application process. First off he is very prompt and accommodating when we requested his time. His skills as an English tutor are excellent - organizing content, revising, editing, proof reading are top notch. He polished her drafts with such good recommendations that my daughter who is a perfectionist, was totally happy. We definitely recommend Steven as a tutor.
- Neelima M. from San Jose, CA
Steven is an excellent teacher, and my son quickly got into the state of class. After the class, he told me that Steven taught very well and he was very willing to continue the following courses.

Steven exceeds my expectations every time we call upon him for tutoring. He is engaging, technical, and theme focused. Could not ask for more. Thank you, Steven.
- Alicia M. from Dupont, WA
Excellent beginning,Made the process simple. Thank you very much. I certainly hear trepidation about even starting the writing process but now I?m more confident to this process
- Naomi K. from Macon, GA
Steven has been working with our son who is a junior at college. He needed work on reading comprehension, organizing and planning papers, and strengthening his writing ability. Steven has made an enormous difference and our son is not only learning quickly but showing marked improvement in his work. He has been getting great grades and receiving strong, positive feedback from his professors. Steven is flexible, available when needed, and has formed a wonderful working relationship with him. Our son feels he is learning every time they work together. I cannot recommend Steven highly enough. We feel lucky to have him a part of our son's college life and helping to prepare him to be a really excellent writer once he is out in the working world.
- Sally O. from Wayland, MA
Steven is a very professional, determined English teacher-professor. Not only he reviews regular SAT passages, he also helped our son in Scholastic and JFK award essay competition.

I am glad I found Steven K. on Wyzant. I appreciate Steven's extensive knowledge and feedback, and the online format to work with him. I think anyone looking for help in his area of expertise will enjoy working with him.

My class with Steven was great - he was very thoughtful, fun and well prepared to suit my needs. I will continue to take additional classes with Steven for sure. Thank you very much!
- Summer K. from Palo Alto, CA
Writing a paper and getting a professional critique is extremely helpful. Steven's knowledge of grammar and writing gave me ideas on how to make a paper flow. I know it will come in handy when writing future papers. Very professional!
