TUTORING
Steve Sorrenti
Tutor
Steve's tutoring approach can help your child improve both their grades and their self-confidence.
Steve's experience as a youth worker means that he understands that not all students are motivated to do their school work, and that frustrations arising from learning disabilities can lead to poor self-esteem. Steve creates a fun, relaxed learning environment for students. He works with their parents, teachers, and other professionals to create a learning plan best suited for successful outcomes.
Steve has worked for 8 years supporting students in both elementary and secondary schools in Vancouver, including working as a Student Support Worker for the Vancouver School Board.
