About Dan

Bio

I don't want to clutter you with the many subjects that I CAN teach. I want to tell you about the subject I'm an expert at: SAT and ACT. I help high school students increase their scores so they can get into their schools of choice and get top scholarship money, which saves their parents potentially thousands on the cost of college.

I've worked with one of the top tutoring companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that...

I don't want to clutter you with the many subjects that I CAN teach. I want to tell you about the subject I'm an expert at: SAT and ACT. I help high school students increase their scores so they can get into their schools of choice and get top scholarship money, which saves their parents potentially thousands on the cost of college.

I've worked with one of the top tutoring companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that to you at a much more affordable rate.

My scores were
ACT: 34/36 (I would no doubt get a 35 or 36 if I took it today)
SAT: 2400/2400 superscore
(My scores helped me get into Duke University, earn a full tuition scholarship to Colgate U and a Full-Ride (Tuition and Room & Board + free laptop) to The College of New Jersey)

I've also received 800's on the Math IIc and Physics subject tests, and 11 perfect scores on Advanced Placement Exams, so I'm a test taking pro.

In addition to this, I integrate valuable life lessons rarely taught or even mentioned in primary school and college that help students become more successful and balanced people in the real world. My students continually come back to me and thank me for showing them these quick and simple tools in stress management and productivity.

I call it the Holistic Approach or Whole-Person Centered Tutoring.

Get a FREE SAT & ACT consultation so we can learn more about each other and you can learn why these tests offer the easiest way for juniors to get into college and the easiest way to get top scholarships!

My students have earned scores that helped them get into the Ivy League, and they have earned scores that earned them full-tuition scholarships!

*** My cancellation policy is as follows: ***
48 hours notice cancellation
24 hours notice for rescheduling
--Rescheduling means you will rebook your lesson sometime that week. Cancellation means you don't want to see me at all for that week. I won't be a meanie about it and will let it probably slide once or twice. I just ask you to respect my time and I will respect yours.

I consistently score above a 700 on this section and have achieved the coveted 800 before. I've worked with one of the top companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that to you at a much more affordable rate. My approach breaks down questions by difficulty level so you gradually progress to harder problems. There's many ways to study vocabulary. I've sorted the various approaches and picked out the best resources for each approach.

Truly Amazing

Dan is an amazing ACT tutor! I have worked with a few ACT tutors, but none compare to Dan. He truly cares about the student and clearly prepares well for his lessons! I look forward to continued work with Dan, and I can already see huge improvements. I would HIGHLY recommend Dan, he is extremely knowledgeable,helpful, and professional!

Chris, 2 lessons with Dan

Respectful, knowledgeable, personable, as well as relatable tutor to an 18 year old.

Dan gave detailed feedback about his sessions as well as my grandson's progress and learning difficulties and progress. I appreciated his honesty and directness about the sessions. My grandson really respected Dan and valued his expertise and advice.

Marise, 5 lessons with Dan

Knowledgeable, patient, and an overall great tutor

From reading the other reviews I had high expectations for Dan. By the end of the first meeting I knew I chose the right tutor. Dan is very knowledgeable and explains topics until you feel comfortable moving onto another topic. I would recommend Dan to anyone who needs a good ACT tutor for a low price.

Great ACT Test Prep

Dan has a wealth of knowledge regarding the ACT test. I like how he focused on each subject per section to help the student master and review concepts before moving on. He is extremely patient and thorough with what he is teaching. I will continue to use Dan for his tutoring to help my son increase his ACT scores.

Michael, 7 lessons with Dan

The knowledge and advice i needed

Excellent test strategy advice, he was very knowledgeable about all the subjects and very patient while helping me understand what he was explaining.

Griffin, 1 lesson with Dan

Excellent Tutor

I was a little skeptical about tutoring on line, but you don't pay for a lesson if your not happy. Well, I worked out better than in person. Dan was able to show the work on my sons computer and give input on the answer. My son said he could focus on the lesson visually instead of looking back and forth for guidance. It may not work for everyone, but my son was happy with it:)

Jacob, 4 lessons with Dan

Excellent tutor

Dan has worked with our son on preparation for the ACT test. Within a few weeks, he was able to raise his score from the 25-27 range to the low 30 range by working with him on test taking strategies. As important, he has given our son the confidence to know he can attain the higher scores.

Alex, 26 lessons with Dan

Great Tutor

I am reviewing on behalf of my son. He is thorough and seems to know what he is teaching. My son feels he is a good teacher. I will definitely recommend Dan.

Outstanding!

Danh has been tutoring my daughter in preparation for the ACT test this fall. Not only is Danh a gifted teacher with a remarkable repertoire of techniques and experience, he is genuinely invested in her success. His organization and pacing has kept her on track which has boosted her motivation to do well and helped her gain confidence as the test date approaches. Since working with Danh, my daughter's practice test score has increased by an amazing 5 points! This is a tremendous increase, beyond my daughter's initial goal! I am highly recommending Danh to any parent who wants their child to have the absolute best college testing preparation.

Sam, 12 lessons with Dan

Excellent and Knowledgable Tutor

Dan is an excellent tutor. He has now tutored both my daughter, who is graduating college this year, and then my 2nd daughter for her ACT's. Both my daughters have found Dan to be professional, knowledgeable, and well informed on all entrance exams for the college. We have also used Dan for other tutoring needs and he is proven to be an excellent tutor on all levels. We shall be using him again for my 3rd daughter.
