Hi, I’m Joe D. Let me tell you about my tutoring experience. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Physics. I went to a L.A. Valley Community College and received my associate’s degree in physics. While attending I tutored college students with mathematics for four semesters. I tutored in an open setting where student did their homework and raised their hands to get help and I also tutored one on one. I also received the honor to be on the Dean’s list for excellence in mathematics. After graduating I attended California State University Northridge where I tutored university students in mathematics and physics for four semesters. I also had studying time with my classmates, a tutoring collaboration, in which I was at the chalkboard finding solutions to solving problems while my classmates were taking notes along with giving their input. Mathematics and physics are my passion and I enjoy helping students fulfill their needs.

When I work with you, I will work to find the best avenue for you to gain understanding of the subject matter at hand. What communicates with you best, is my job to figure out. There is more than one way to attack a given problem and I will seek the best avenue of communication that best enhances your understanding. I will make sure you have a good understanding of the rules and concepts under consideration. The math and physics courses I’m comfortable tutoring are, elementary math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, algebra/calculus-based physics.

I offer a free consultation to find what best suits your needs. I also require a 24-hour cancellation notice, but will take into account mitigating circumstances.

I always enjoy watching students gain confidence in their performance. I have worked with students who just want to save time with tutoring (not having to reinvent the wheel), to students who have had a sheer hatred for the subject matter. Either way I strive to give you the knowledge and confidence that will keep you going or turn you around. Whether you choose me or someone else, y

Excellent Math Tutor

Joseph is an outstanding instructor, teaching a variety of math topics such as logs, trigonometry, factoring, etc. which greatly benefited my understanding and success in my math class the entire year. He explains step-by-step processes in which he provides short cut ways to make math easier and more efficient to understand where we are more limited in the content we learn at school. Joseph not only made math easier but also made the subject enjoyable. He is great to work with and is patient for students in any level of math. He is highly recommended for higher levels of high school math and will prepare many for their mathematics tests. Joseph is the best!

Fantastic, Intuitive and Accomodating Tutor

Joseph has been tutoring my high school sophomore in math for two years. First in geometry and now in Algebra 2. Joseph has years of experience in tutoring and he knows how to break down and explain difficult topics. According to my son, he proceeds at exactly the right speed for him and they always get a lot accomplished during their tutoring sessions. Joseph is also very accomodating with respect to scheduling tutoring appointments and his rate is very reasonable. Without Joseph, my son would be strugging in math right now. Instead, he is doing very well. We really appreciate Joseph and plan to continue using him to tutor my son in Trig, Precal etc. and in Physics too.

Knowledgeable and makes learning trig more fun

Helps me with my college trig homework and I actually understand it a lot more after our sessions. I hate trig with a passion but he makes it easier and explains things clear :)

A great teacher!

Joseph was so helpful to my son! He clarified many concepts that seemed very complicated. My son came out of the session more sure of himself and relieved to finally understand everything. I hope Joseph is available next time my son needs help!

Dorothee, 2 lessons with Joseph

Efficient and knowledgeable

Joseph jumped right in to help my son regroup after a summer break. My son was reluctant to an online tutor but said after the first session that it was so helpful and so accessible. Joseph’s ability to immediately connect and make a positive impact is remarkable.
