Knowledgeable and patient tutor for a pre teen boy
Chris, 43 lessons with DavidDavid has been a good tutor for my reluctant 11 year old son. He is patient with my son and finds ways to get him engaged once the sessions get started. Since David has been working with him on his writing structure his school assignments have improved and teachers have noted the progress my son is making in writing. The weekly practice through video tutoring has definitely started moving my son's skills in the right direction
Hello! My name is David and helping students succeed in school is my passion.
I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring English to middle school, high school, and college students. My career began in 2011 as a volunteer tutor for Reading Partners, a non-profit organization that provided tutoring for students struggling with reading comprehension.

My son thought David was very easy to understand and enjoyed his lesson. He thought he provided a lot of structure while still making the lesson enjoyable. Engaging class!

Great writing coach!
David has a great way of guiding students on writing technique and language without overstepping ideas and concepts. He consistently teaches my middle school daughter methods to make her writing less repetitive and more concise. We have seen significant change in her style writing, even after only a few sessions. She loves working with him!

Highly supportive and patient tutor
David is tutoring my 7th grader son. The best thing I like about David is how he open mindedly heard my requirements for tutoring my son and supportively agreed and understood with patience. I am thankful and feel blessed to have found David to tutor and enrich my son's English knowledge which would be of help not even in school but in long term too. He has his own content to explain, discusses and helps with HW or any project and also helps with communication. We have had 5 lessons with David and would be continuing more.

Amazing tutor
David tutored my 10 year-old son for 6 months to help him with reading comprehension and writing. David is patient, engaging, and made learning a lot of fun! The results were quickly noticeable. Even his teachers commented on it. We highly recommend David and look forward to continuing to work with him!

Fantastic English and Writing Tutor
I would like to start by saying that in the 8 month time period that I worked with David, my writing skills, writing knowledge, and reading comprehension each got exponentially better. David is always excited to help you out with schoolwork and other assignments but never will do it for you, which leads to a constructive way of learning. He also has numerous resource sheets that contain valuable information about vocabulary, essay writing, and many more subtopics related to writing. Using these skills, we could see how I improved because every session we would do a quick-write activity, and I would receive constructive feedback on how to write better. Lastly, the activities were not boring, because many of these activities stemmed from books we would read together and in my case, we read Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer. Every two sessions, we would read and discuss a chapter of the book, followed by a writing prompt about the chapter we read. In conclusion, I really liked the way the class was taught, and it worked out well for me because my English skills have improved.

Excellent writing tutoring
David has been tutoring my 11 years old for about 9 month now. I have observed big improvement. She doesn’t struggle as much for ideas or content. She is more confident in writing. David is very patient, positive and knowledge of many subjects. He is incredible guiding how to crafting stories. He brings out the best in her. Definitely recommend him!
