About Daniel


Bio

Ever been in a lecture that made sense at the time...but when you sat down to do your assignment, you didn't have a clue where to start?

Overwhelmed by the relentless onslaught of math concepts / formulas / theorems / techniques / facts?

Feel like you're treading water instead of having true mastery of the subject?

You're not alone, and for good reason.

Most people seek to learn just enough to get the problem right. But the truly great ones follow a system that makes it impossible...

Ever been in a lecture that made sense at the time...but when you sat down to do your assignment, you didn't have a clue where to start?

Overwhelmed by the relentless onslaught of math concepts / formulas / theorems / techniques / facts?

Feel like you're treading water instead of having true mastery of the subject?

You're not alone, and for good reason.

Most people seek to learn just enough to get the problem right. But the truly great ones follow a system that makes it impossible for them to get the problem wrong. It's taken me years to hone this system, and now I use it with great success for both my students and myself:

1) Deep dive to identify weak spots
2) Break down weak spots into underlying concepts
3) Explain the concepts so that it "clicks" for the student
4) Practice, practice, practice until it's second nature
5) Build back to the original weak spot equipped with a mastery of the fundamentals

So if you want to approach every assignment, quiz, and test with confidence, poise, and mastery instead of dread and anxiety, schedule a first session with me backed by Wyzant's Good Fit Guarantee.

To your success,
Daniel

Exceptional and dedicated math tutor!

"Daniel is an exceptional math tutor! He's incredibly dedicated and takes the time to truly understand where a student's confusion lies. He went above and beyond to help my daughter grasp some challenging concepts in trigonometry, even sending a helpful follow-up message with extra explanations. Kayla's confidence has soared thanks to his guidance. Highly recommend!"
