Bio

Hey! My name is David and I'm a 5th year medical and business student (MD/MBA) at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton School. Prior to Penn, I was certified as a NYC Math teacher and taught 6th grade math at NYC's elite middle school, IS 187 (Christa McAuliffe).

Hey! My name is David and I'm a 5th year medical and business student (MD/MBA) at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton School. Prior to Penn, I was certified as a NYC Math teacher and taught 6th grade math at NYC's elite middle school, IS 187 (Christa McAuliffe).

As a tutor and teacher with over 10+ years of experience, I have helped a variety of students ranging from grade 3 to undergraduates in college. While I was a senior in high school, I started tutoring children privately and in small groups, helping them unlock their potential or achieving their success on standardized tests. I have extensive experience in tutoring for the SHSAT, PSAT and SAT, both in their new version and their previous version. In NYU, I was a teaching assistant in the ULC (University Learning Center), where I tutored undergraduate students in a wide range of subjects including Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, Chinese and Writing. I also tutored ad hoc for Kaplan Test Prep, TA numerous undergraduate and graduate classes at Penn and have mentored dozens of students.

As a tutor, I am flexible, versatile and extremely perceptive of my students' needs. As every student is different and their goals are varying, I differentiate my teaching strategies to best align with my student. For students who are looking to improve in school or perhaps to get ahead, I focus particularly on deep conceptual ideas and an inquiry-based system of learning. I believe that the best form of education is not only informative and also fun and will incorporate student interests to inspire and stimulate curiosity. For students who are looking primarily for test prep, I will utilize specific test strategies to best improve their score. Most importantly, in all my sessions, I incorporate educational psychology theories and concepts in order to find the most efficient and effective way to deliver the material.

Excellent, conscientious, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and inspiring tutor

David was able to motivate my son to produce excellent work under his guidance, which he never did in the past for Math, as this is a subject that was challenging to him. I can highly recommend David who has an excellent approach to teaching. He is quick to determine the areas of weakness of the student and knows how to make the best of the student's strengths. In two sessions my son has gained knowledge of all the basic algebra and arithmetic concepts which he was quite uncertain about in the past. Now for the first time my son is enjoying Math and he loved his tutoring with David. David is a highly personable, reliable and patient fellow who exhudes confidence and communicates confidence to students. This makes the whole difference as the student gets inspired by a teacher like David. Last but not least, David is courteous and punctual and always responds to messages, emails/phone calls promptly and complies with appointments as scheduled.

Knowledgeable and Thorough Tutor

David is very knowledgeable and verbally interacts with my daughter in helping her with SAT prep. He explains thoroughly allowing my daughter to get an easier understanding of the questions. I would highly recommend him!

Excellent Tutor

David was able to clearly and articulately explain everything that I was having trouble with. He made it really easy to understand and even fun to learn about. I highly recommend him for all subjects! He's truly the best!

Patient and personable and knowledgeable tutor

David tutored my daughter in Chemistry - he was very knowledgeable and patient and explained everything very well. Would definitely recommend. Looking forward to another session!

Barbara, 1 lesson with David

Patient with student and working to deepen understanding.

David was good at figuring out why Noey was having a hard time and is worked with him closely. In only one session his confidence and ability grew because David noticed why he was having trouble with certain aspects of algebra.
