Bio

If you had told my 15-year-old self that I’d one day be a physics tutor, I wouldn’t have believed it. Like many students, I once struggled with subjects like math and physics. But over time, I realized that it wasn’t about being "bad" at these subjects—it was simply that I hadn’t heard the right explanation yet. And that’s the approach I bring to every student I work with today.

I believe that anyone can excel in math and physics. To me, learning STEM is like learning to dance—it’s all...

If you had told my 15-year-old self that I’d one day be a physics tutor, I wouldn’t have believed it. Like many students, I once struggled with subjects like math and physics. But over time, I realized that it wasn’t about being "bad" at these subjects—it was simply that I hadn’t heard the right explanation yet. And that’s the approach I bring to every student I work with today.

I believe that anyone can excel in math and physics. To me, learning STEM is like learning to dance—it’s all about finding the rhythm that works for you. With the right guidance, patience, and explanation, I truly believe every student is capable of success.

Over the past 6 years, I've worked with more than 1000 students—many of whom have told me that they never thought they’d enjoy math or physics until our lessons. I once helped a student improve from a C to an A in just six weeks, and 98% of my students have gone on to pass their classes with Bs and As.

I graduated with distinctions from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, one of the nation's top 10 physics programs, and I’m currently continuing my journey at the University of Chicago (#5 in the world). With a track record of academic excellence (5/5 on AP exams, 31/36 ACT score, 3.9/4 GPA), I know the path to success—and I’m here to help you find it too.

What sets me apart is my individualized approach—I tailor every lesson to fit your learning style, ensuring that we work together in a way that makes sense for you. Our lessons will be a conversation, where I guide you, ask questions, and encourage you to think critically so you gain confidence in every topic.

As a full-time tutor, I’m fully available for last-minute help or ongoing sessions—learning doesn’t have to feel like a solo journey. Let’s make math and physics something to look forward to!

Feel free to reach out, and we can connect over phone or text to see how I can help you on your learning journey.

The best tutor in the world

Danylo is an amazing tutor and anyone who is considered him should definitely not let this opportunity pass them by! Out of all the tutors I have worked with, he is the most committed to my success as a student. His hours are very flexible, he is great at teaching the material to me, and he has lots of patience. Anyone who is considering him should simply book him, you wont regret it he is worth every penny.

Excellent tutor!!

My daughter has been struggling with Physics and Algebra 2 this Spring semester. She studied and worked hard but was still not passing exams. Finally, with just a couple of sessions with Danylo there has been amazing progress and she is doing so much better on exams. I wish we would have found Danylo sooner!

Elizabeth, 3 lessons with Danylo

Great teacher

Danylo is a very good teacher and has a good setup through zoom where he can teach you what u need to know. Even though it is online his setup makes it seem like it is in person. He knows how to break down the topic and get you involved so u can fully understand it.

Excellent job on first session

Danylo was my tutor for Algebra 2. He was able to help me immediately in the first session. He spent the time to gain a level of my understanding. I would highly recommend!

Cade, 6 lessons with Danylo

Thorough and Knowledgeable

Danylo taught Physics to both my kids. One a junior in high school and another a junior in undergrad. He is thorough, organized, professional and knowledgeable. Both of them clearly understood what he was teaching and benefitted from it. I would highly recommend him as a Physics tutor.

Saritha, 5 lessons with Danylo

Amazing!!

Danylo is an amazing tutor! I come to our tutoring sessions completely confused about what I have learned in class and leave our session feeling very confident! He takes great notes to look back on and does practice problems to help! Highly recommend.
