  • Hi potential students!
  • There I learned how to be the educator I am today.

About Me

I am an energetic and (at times, depending on how much you love the subject) fun tutor living in Houston TX. I am originally from Connecticut, but moved down to Houston to attend Rice University, where I graduated with a BS in biochemistry and a minor in poverty, justice and human capabilities. After school, I was accepted into Teach for America Houston, and I taught high school physics and chemistry at my placement school, Wheatley High School, for three years. I love working with a wide variety of students, from those who just need a quick push to those who need a complete and total re-education on a subject. I love everything related to science and math, and more importantly I love teaching it in a variety of different ways to a variety of different students. There is nothing I enjoy more than seeing a student light up with an understanding of a difficult topic. While teaching, I not only taught the basic sciences but also helped students through other subjects such as algebra and geometry. In addition, I tutored many students through a mini SAT prep course, and would love to help you succeed in this as well. In addition to teaching and tutoring, I love sports and was the varsity cross country and soccer coach during my time at Wheatley. Convincing students to want to run a 3.1 mile race was a whole other battle, but I enjoyed every minute of it. In 2014, we were the District 22-4A Champions! All in all, what you will get from me is a tutor who enjoys a challenge. I challenge myself everyday, and I will do the same for you in order to help you get wherever you hope to go.

Hobbies & Interests

I enjoy all sorts of athletics. I run, play soccer and Ultimate Frisbee frequently. In addition, I like trying new things out such as guitar or writing fiction.

Q&A with Stephen

Students can learn anything and even enjoy doing it. It is just a matter of how they learn best and how much time they are willing to put into it. It is up to the educator to find how they learn best (visual, auditory, etc.), and it is up to the student to put in the time.
