Astrophysics PhD and Data Scientist tutoring Physics, Math, and CS.

Daniel C.

Hello! I’m Danny, and I’m thrilled to offer tutoring services in physics, astronomy, mathematics, and programming in Python. I hold an undergraduate degree in Physics from UC Berkeley and a PhD in Astrophysics from UCLA, where I focused on advanced research in the field. In addition to my academic qualifications, I have professional experience as a Data Scientist, specializing in new sensor technologies, which allows me to bring a real-world perspective to my teaching.

I have over 6 years of experience in education, with a strong foundation in both classroom and one-on-one settings. As a Teaching Assistant throughout my graduate studies, I assisted in more than 8 college-level courses in physics and astronomy. I conducted 1-on-1 office hours for each of these courses, helping students understand complex concepts and succeed in their coursework. My background also includes 10+ years of Python experience and scientific computing. I greatly enjoy breaking down abstract and challenging topics into simpler, more digestible explanations.

In addition to my college-level teaching, I have experience tutoring math at the elementary and high school levels. I’ve worked with students ranging from basic arithmetic to calculus and algebra, and I love helping younger learners build a strong foundation in math. My approach focuses on building confidence, improving problem-solving skills, and tailoring lessons to each student's unique needs and learning style.

Whether you're seeking help with basic math, understanding the wonders of the universe through astronomy, tackling physics concepts, or solving advanced technical problems in Python, I am here to help you succeed. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your academic goals!
