My name is Daniel! I graduated with honors from Clemson University (Go Tigers!) with a dual degree in both Electrical and Computer Engineering. I am currently employed and working as a Software Engineer with a background in Cyber Security where I actively use a lot of the skills I teach on the job. I hold both the GPEN certification from SANS and the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) certification.

I specialize primarily in AP Computer Science and College Computer Science offering a wealth of knowledge and expertise to guide students toward success.

Many students struggle with understanding how to approach certain problems and try to memorize problems as opposed to knowing the steps behind solving them. My goal is to help students 1:1 feel more comfortable breaking down complex problems into smaller more manageable pieces and learning the methodologies behind each of them.

With a proven track record of academic excellence with over 5 years of experience tutoring, I bring a deep understanding of both theoretical concepts and practical applications. My tutoring approach is tailored to each student's unique learning style, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of AP Computer Science and mastery of programming languages.

I offer FREE 10-15 minute consultations to get to know you better and help you decide if we are a great fit.

Contact me so that we can schedule a time that works best to learn and grow!

Other subjects include: Electrical Engineering, Career development and technical interview prep, Cyber Security and other various programming languages such as Matlab.

Knowledgeable and experienced

Daniel has accomplished with my son what I hoped. To be more confident in understanding programming concepts. Daniel develop a report with my son. He is experienced, patient and was able to convey programming concepts in a manner can be learned quickly. I highly recommend Daniel.

Computer Science

Daniel is an amazing tutor. His knowledge and understanding for the material that we've covered has been so helpful. No matter when I message him, he is always quick to answer and readily available to schedule a time for us to meet. The way he explains things I'm confused about or helps me debug my codes has been truly valuable. I wish I hired him sooner and would definitely utilize him again if needed.

Flexible, understanding and effective tutor

Daniel is teaching me Linux, and so far he has been exquisitely, I personally had some issues with the class times due to my college lectures, however Daniel has been understanding and extremely flexible. Not to mention the fun and educational out-of-session work he has given to help me if I cant make it often. Would 100% recommend!

Knowledgeable tutor and well prepared

Daniel walked me through concepts for insertion sorts and other types of sorts in C to prepare for practice problems. I’m fairly new to programming so this was very helpful. I’d recommend Daniel’s tutoring services!

Your Next Computer Science Tutor

Daniel is a great tutor; he is very knowledgeable in C programming and Operating Systems. I have him as a tutor for my CS college course, and so far things have been great. Daniel will help you with homework's, programming assignments, and any other relevant coursework. He takes the time to give thorough explanations questions you could have. I also appreciate how flexible he is. Many times I would have to reschedule our meeting and Daniel is always understanding and willing to make accommodations for you. If you are looking for someone with a slow and steady pace to help you with a Computer Science-related course, Daniel is the perfect tutor for you.

Great tutor

My son is hard to please and he felt very comfortable with Daniel. He said he was great at explaining C++. They reviewed an assignment that my son was struggling with and he was able to understand what he did wrong.

Extremely Competent on Subject Matter Requested

I needed some assistance on a specific subject matter for a graduate level technology course. I provided the specifics to Daniel and other tutors that advertised knowledge in this area. Daniel provided a very timely response with confidence that he could assist, when many other tutors (with even higher credentials and reviews) were unsure if they could help, due to the technical complexity. During my first session, which was scheduled for the next day, Daniel clearly demonstrated his preparedness and expert knowledge in the subject matter, as he indicated from his initial response. I highly recommend you give Daniel an opportunity to address your tutoring needs based on his areas of expertise. He will respond with an honest assessment; you will not be disappointed.
