About Daniel


Bio

I will attend college and am currently in a gap year. Despite numerous academic accomplishments, I feel like my ability to convey not only information but methods of thinking set me apart. For instance, I try to fully understand topics rather than do well in school - and my tutoring reflects that. Since freshman year, I have mastery in over 13 AP curriculum (specifically in Calculus AB/BC, Chemistry, Biology, Physics - Mechanics), scoring 5s & 4s on the respective AP tests. Additionally, I...

I will attend college and am currently in a gap year. Despite numerous academic accomplishments, I feel like my ability to convey not only information but methods of thinking set me apart. For instance, I try to fully understand topics rather than do well in school - and my tutoring reflects that. Since freshman year, I have mastery in over 13 AP curriculum (specifically in Calculus AB/BC, Chemistry, Biology, Physics - Mechanics), scoring 5s & 4s on the respective AP tests. Additionally, I scored 1550 on the SAT. My standardized testing abilities were not always there, but learnt, and I hope that I can instill them into anybody whom I tutor.

My first experiences tutoring came in a high school math course where I would help answer basic homework problems. However, as the year would progress, I would help my peers understand the material by synergizing with the teacher's lesson. My peers would end up doing well, and so would I, yet my newfound passion would be what persisted.

Many more experiences with tutoring have taught me many things: communication, empathy, and mastery. Yet above all, tutoring taught me how to learn, for how can you teach without learning yourself.

Reviews

I was initially scared for this upcoming calculus unit, but after working with Daniel, I can say I feel much more confident!

Daniel has a unique approach to academics that I feel everyone needs to experience. He teaches a conceptual understanding that nearly eliminates the need to spend energy on pure memorization.

Great Teacher - AP Physics

My son was really impressed with Daniel’s ability to cover the topics in the best way possible for AP Physics in a very limited time. Would highly recommend Daniel to any prospective students.

Flexible and very patient

He helped my daughter who is really struggling with AP Calc. She said he was super patient with her and didn’t make her feel badly about not knowing concepts. Also, we had to change a few times and Dan was flexible and accommodating!

great teacher

Great tutoring session. Thank you for reviewing tasks for AP chemistry. It was very helpful and the student received stellar scores on the test

Marina , 7 lessons with Daniel

Able to explain why, not just answer a question

I've tried a range of tutors and Daniel is my favorite. He listened before he talked, understanding where my confusion was, and then cleared it all up. We covered a whole range of topics. I learned a lot! I will be scheduling with Daniel again.

My kid likes his AP Chem class

Before the class, I sent Daniel the topics/textbook we need. He sent some youtube videos to preview. He is a professional tutor. My son likes his class, feels more confident about it, and we scheduled more classes.
