About Daniel


Bio

I have tutored students privately off and on for over 20 years. I am also a Physics professor in the CSU system (California State University) and am very good at developing a rapport with my students. In addition, I am very patient and always ask about how they are progressing. I try to help elucidate relevance of material with concrete examples where possible.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have been tutoring mathematics for over 15 years and teach physics were we apply the methods of algebra to solving problems.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have worked with students struggling with algebra concepts for over ten years both as a private tutor and when teaching physics.
Astronomy

Astronomy

I work as a teacher in physics and astronomy.
Calculus

Calculus

I have tutored precalculus. Calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, etc… for over 15 years. I am also a part time physics professor
Chemistry

Chemistry

I have tutored STEM for over 15 years, especially physics and chemistry
Differential Equations

Differential Equations

As a Physics major I was required to take two semesters in differential equations. Also, I tutored differential equations during a few semesters as an undergrad. Lastly, Physics is built on solutions to differential equations so I had to have a thorough understanding of them.
Fortran

Fortran

I've been a programmer in Fortran for about 10 years. I am self taught in this language. I feel having to learn it on my own gives me an excellent insight into the subject.
Geometry

Geometry

I have tutored algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus for over 15 years
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

As a physicist I have used linear algebra in a variety of applications. As a student I took may classes that built on the concepts of linear algebra. I believe both of these things have served to deepen my understanding of the subject.
MATLAB

MATLAB

I have programmed in MATLAB for 15 years, both professionally and academically. I have assisted college students struggling with the subject for much of that time. Often students using MATLAB have never programmed before, so it really boils down to teaching good programming practices. Writing top down code and including good documentation.
Physics

Physics

I have tutored Physics extensively since my college years. I have also been a physics instructor at San Jose state and have a masters degree in Physics.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I have tutored precalculus, trigonometry, and calculus for over 15 years. With very good feedback.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I have helped students with the Math SAT many times over the years and gotten great feedback
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I have been tutoring students in trigonometry for many years and also teach some trigonometry as a physics teacher

great examples

Very patient and he had great diagrams. We were able to get through a lot of different topics. Would definitely work with Daniel again.

Donovan, 4 lessons with Daniel

Awesome tutor!

Worked on solid state physics homework. Helped me understand some fundamental concepts, probability density and some statistical mechanics. Would definitely work with again, hope to set up a few more sessions... reasonable price as well.

Clayton, 4 lessons with Daniel

Knowledgeable, resourceful and patient

Daniel is is helping with Mat-lab, very knowledgeable about the subject, resourceful and very patient. Had 2 sessions with him already and scheduling more. Great tutor!

Ana, 2 lessons with Daniel

Quick learner that can explain complicated concepts.

Daniel picked up new material quickly, provided intuitive explanations and was good at debugging code. He was also very focus throughout the entire session. I will definitely work with him again.

Mitchell, 1 lesson with Daniel

Great tutor

My son needed a few calculus lessons to catch up on a few topics that he needed for his physics class (he’s taking calculus concurrently and hasn’t learned the topics yet). Daniel was able to help him learned in just 3 sessions. My son likes Daniel a lot. He said Daniel is very knowledgeable and explains well. Thank you Daniel!

Phung, 3 lessons with Daniel

Highly Recommend Daniel

Daniel worked successfully with class materials. He is patient, able to explain concepts well, and a great teacher. I highly recommend Daniel if you need help!

Justine, 1 lesson with Daniel

Great tutor

Daniel reviewed and helped my son with his math homework. He's very patience, great teacher, good explanation. My son is catching up with the material that he's been learning in class.

Lan, 11 lessons with Daniel

Prepared and very knowledgable

Daniel taught me some of the more complex linear algebra topics along with some vector analysis. He was prepared for the lesson and guided me through teaching step by step rather than doing the problem for me.

Daniel, 1 lesson with Daniel

Great tutor. Passionate on teaching

Mr. Daniel is an expert in Physics and differential equations. Emphasizes on the core concepts. I have a better understanding now with the subject material. I felt that I am getting more with the classes that I am taking because of his help.

Reiner, 8 lessons with Daniel

Knowledgeable and works well with my son.

Daniel is working with my son in both Algebra and Conceptual Physics. So far my son really likes him and understands his explanations well.
