Steven is a super-talented, professional teacher. He has a special ability to explain more difficult words and concepts in terms of easier, simpler words that the student already knows. Steven is positive, patient, and extremely knowledgeable about French literature and history. I like that he corrects my word choice, grammar, and pronunciation. Thank you for teaching, Steven!

What an amazing teacher Steven is. I’ve just had a 60-minute lesson with him and it was interesting, fun and rewarding. Steven is easy to talk to, extremely kind and patient, and gives you plenty of constructive comments to help you improve. He is a diamond of a teacher.

It's always so fascinating and fun to talk with Steven. He's very skilled at deftly correcting my mistakes without slowing the flow of the conversation, which I think takes considerable skill!

Steven is a wonderful teacher. He has a calm and insightful demeanor and explains complex topics in a straightforward manner which are easily digestible. It is a joy to talk with him on a variety of topics and I would highly recommend working with him. I have no doubt that your French will improve.

Steven is absolutely capable of providing a structured curriculum and has done so early in our association, but because my goals are to keep my mind engaged in learning and to discuss (as best I can) aspects of French literature, we have arrived at a pattern of reading and discussing examples of different periods and genres. My conversational level is improving (I think - today was one of those days when the words weren't always there) and my mind is thoroughly stimulated every time. Well worth the time and the very small investment.

Steven is the best!
