About Darrell


Bio

"I wish I would have known the things that I teach." I have taught at two universities, three community colleges and one liberal arts college. My strategy is to teach strategy, not facts. In my tutoring, I use a researched technique called "Fading." In this technique students are started with solved problems and gradually "faded" into solving problems themselves by removing more and more of the solution. This technique has been reported in several peer-reviewed journals and I have employed it...

"I wish I would have known the things that I teach." I have taught at two universities, three community colleges and one liberal arts college. My strategy is to teach strategy, not facts. In my tutoring, I use a researched technique called "Fading." In this technique students are started with solved problems and gradually "faded" into solving problems themselves by removing more and more of the solution. This technique has been reported in several peer-reviewed journals and I have employed it in my classroom teaching as well. Teaching your student the tools to succeed going forward is my goal. In addition to covering material that may be given by their teacher, when applicable we will used demonstrations (especially sports, I love sports) to help gain better understanding of scientific principles. I can help your student succeed in science and math.

Awesome tutor

When I first found WyzAnt.com, I emailed Darrell and he was very quick to get back with me to coordinate a time. Darrell arranged to be at my home the next day to tutor my son in CHM 130. He arrived about 7:50 and stayed until they covered 4 chapters. He was very patient and he was easy for my 19 year old son to relate to. He is very nice, professional man and I would recommend HIGHLY Mr. Darrell to anyone needing a chemistry tutor.
