About David

Bio

I've been teaching and tutoring and preparing students for various tests for over 20 years. I have two Master's degrees, one in Physics and one in Math, and have just recently embarked on a journey to earn another degree in Chemistry. I love teaching and it's all I have ever wanted to do.

I am never satisfied with what I know and almost often have a book with me to learn new and exciting things. I won the Teaching Assistant of the Year award my first year teaching and have only gotten better...

I won't make any silly claims that you'll ace every test with working with me or will definitely get an A. I can only show you the path, but you have to walk it. I will be there to guide you along the way but the majority of the work must come from you. You'll have my cell phone and are welcome to text me questions you have 24/7 (which I will respond to as soon as I can). I will also travel to you to make the burden easier. I tutor 7 days a week and sometimes I've tutored past midnight or woken up at 5am to get that last minute session in.

Many tutors have taken a couple of years of math classes, got good grades in them, and have decided to embark on a career as a tutor. I've been studying advanced math for over 20 years. Much of what I have learned won't be applicable but a deeper mathematical understanding helps even for the introductory math classes.

My students often ask me if my tests are hard. I tell them every test is hard if you don't know the material and every test is easy if you do. My goal will be to make all your tests easy.

I won't coddle you. If you are wrong, you'll know it, but more importantly you'll learn why. I currently am tutoring an 11 year old in Physics and a 71 year old in advanced mathematics. I tutor everyone and anyone who wants help. Please contact me if you are interested or have any questions.

David is so great and super knowledgeable.

I had a session before my final chemistry exam. I just took the exam and I feel extremely confident! I definitely knew all of the answers. David is extremely patient and his approach is amazing. Thank you, David!!

Tutor responded:

Carla! Thank you for the very kind words! I'm so glad to hear your final went well! I hope the rest are just as good!

Extremely knowledgable. Explains complex concepts and their applications clearly.

I had absolutely zero knowledge of Physics, and a final exam the next day. David met my needs, and in just 5 hours, he was able to break down an entire university-level Physics 2 course in a way that was clear and easy to understand. Thanks to him, the exam went very well!
