So knowledgeable and helpful

Daniel is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and helpful. Explains concepts and makes sure you understand them thoroughly instead of just spitting a million words at you. He was extremely helpful in my undergrad 300 level Physiology class. I will definitely be using him in the future. Well worth the money!! Thanks, Daniel

Great Tutor for Clinical Neurology

Sought out an online tutor to review clinical neurology cases with and found Daniel to be a kind, patient tutor. The medical training environment can sometimes be harsh with the nonstop pimping and difficult personalities in the hierarchy of physicians and medical trainees, so I think med students often find themselves second guessing themselves or afraid to speak at times. I've never tried online tutoring but I'm glad I got connected to someone who is knowledgeable and encouraging. Talking through the Neuro cases helped me feel more comfortable about doing this online clerkship course that my school set up (during COVID-19 social distancing context) and since I have to take the standardized tests as well as online assignments, Daniel was very helpful in pointing out what you typically see in test questions and what you'd also see in clinical practice. Will definitely continue to seek his help during my medical training.
