About Steven
I have always loved the outdoors. Nothing was more interesting to me than spending time in the natural environment, and I used my 30+ years as a university professor to work in many of Earth's most amazing landscapes. The most important lesson I learned is a basic one - everything is connected! The connections and patterns in the natural world are a source of wonderment and the basis of my entire approach to learning and to sharing knowledge. I have taught, worked and conducted research in forestry and geoscience and related environmental fields. I use examples from my practical work in wetlands, water quality, habitat mapping, soils and agriculture. My PhD study applied GIS and remote sensing to ecological analysis in a high mountain environment. I have written two books highlighting the innovative use of geomatics in forestry and geomorphology.

My teaching strategy is focussed on your needs. First, I work with you to identify the topics and areas of interest. Second, I develop an effective strategy to deliver the content through discussion, exercises, and engagement techniques. I prepare appropriate material tailored to different types of learners. Individual tutoring is based on my 30+ years of academic teaching and practical hands-on, real-world experience in forestry, geoscience, ecology and geomatics courses. You will learn and share meaningful insights in the expanding and exciting natural science and management areas. My tutoring will help high school and post-secondary level students in BA/BSc and MA/MSc natural science and environmental studies programs.

Excellent preparation and a thoughtful presentation!
I met Steven back in 2016 when he accepted to be my supervisor at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. Back then, I had the chance to take Steven's courses. He is extremely well educated and knowledgeable, but most impressive is his ability to connect with his students and understand what they need to progress and succeed. Steven is a fantastic professor, extremely trustworthy. His teaching style is strength-based, meaning he has a lot of patience, never shames you for not understanding a concept, and motivates you to continue working hard. You can learn a lot out of a one-hour session, I’d really recommend taking classes with him.
Steven's years as a university professor have honed his teaching skills and demonstrated his ability to mentor and to inspire his students. He combines extensive knowledge with an ability to explain concepts and complicated material in an understandable way. Steven's sense of humour and genuine caring nature make him a great choice for any student in search of a tutor.
As a former student and co worker I can attest to Dr. Franklins ability to teach and perform at the highest level. Steven has been teaching for decades and has always been a faculty favorite by his peers and students. His knowledge of his teaching material is always current and accurate. As a pure academic Steven excels in transferring his knowledge to his students and encourages them to ask questions. Great person and great teacher!
