Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I have been tutoring ACT Math for nearly 10 years, and have raised the grades of kids, and helped them get into their top choice colleges including Cornell, Georgetown, University of Michigan, and others. I have edited and cowritten 8 test preparation books. Here is one of many testimonials I have received: "Just wanted to let you know that Brian will be attending Cornell University (College of Human Ecology) in the fall. He chose it over UCLA and U. of Michigan. Thank you for your help in getting him there. It really made the difference." Frank McGovern
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have tutored Algebra I both for public school and private for nearly 20 years. I have written a book, "Graphs for Algebra I: Understanding the "Y." I have a degree in Geophysical Sciences from the University of Chicago and a degree in Atmospheric Sciences from the University of Maryland. I also have a Masters in Education from Johns Hopkins University.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have 13 years of tutoring experience in algebra II. I know the Montgomery County curriculum. I have written a book, Graphs for Algebra I & II, Understanding the "Y." I am the author and editor of five test-prep books, including "SAT Math 800: How to Master the Toughest Problems," and "Math SAT 800: Challenge Yourself to the Perfect Score."
Calculus

Calculus

I have over 20 years of experience tutoring calculus, helping students strengthen their conceptual understanding and improve their grades and exam performance. I tutor AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, College Calculus I and II, and Calculus with Applications. My approach emphasizes understanding concepts rather than memorizing formulas, enabling students to solve unfamiliar problems with confidence. Every student receives personalized one-on-one instruction tailored to their strengths, learning style, and academic goals.
Praxis

Praxis

I have tutored the Praxis I Math since 2000 and have had many students pass the test thanks to our work together. I have actually written the book, "Praxis I Math: My Private Tutor," one of the only published books on the Praxis I Math test. I am in the process of writing a new book that covers the material for the new 2020 Praxis Core Math exam.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I have been tutoring pre-algebra for 20 years and know the Montgomery County curriculum as well as private school versions. I emphasize understanding rather than memorizing. I like to lead the students to the answer rather than tell them what to do. This keeps them focused and learn faster.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I have been tutoring pre-calculus for 20 years and know the public school curriculum. I focus on helping the student understand the material rather than memorize things. In my education I have taken 20 courses that include trigonometry from calculus to physics to physics lab and meteorology courses such as fluid dynamics and thermodynamics as well as physical meteorology, remote sensing, synoptic meteorology and atmospheric chemistry. I know a lot of application problems including finance and economics, which makes the subject more interesting.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I specialize exclusively in SAT Math and have over 20 years of experience helping students improve their mathematical understanding and test performance. I am the author and co-author of multiple SAT Math preparation books, and my tutoring is highly personalized. Every student receives an individualized learning plan that is continuously refined based on progress, along with AI-enhanced lesson reviews, customized homework, and proven SAT Math strategies.

After only a few sessions my daughter is steadily improving in Algebra 2. Very impressed with Dan's level of knowledge and professionalism! The proof is seeing her confidence increase steadily. Looking forward to seeing her become even more confident!

Quick Help

Dan quickly assessed the situation and helped my son identify his weak areas. We look forward to working with Dan again. He knows the subject very well and also did a good job relating to my son.

Lynley, 1 lesson with Dan

Great tutor

I had a wonderful time re-learning some of the math basics that I had forgotten over the years (exponent rules, PEMDAS, etc.) He is kind and encouraging. Would recommend! Thanks, Dan!

Alex, 1 lesson with Dan

Wonderful tutor!

Knowledgeable, patient tutor who is very perceptive in figuring out students' learning styles and identifying what exactly is holding a student back. He figured out an underlying deficiency in my daughters math skills that really helped unlock the reason she hadn't been "getting it!"
