Bio

I don't want to clutter you with the many subjects that I CAN teach. I want to tell you about the subject I'm an expert at: SAT and ACT. I help high school students increase their scores so they can get into their schools of choice and get top scholarship money, which saves their parents potentially thousands on the cost of college.

I've worked with one of the top tutoring companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that...

I don't want to clutter you with the many subjects that I CAN teach. I want to tell you about the subject I'm an expert at: SAT and ACT. I help high school students increase their scores so they can get into their schools of choice and get top scholarship money, which saves their parents potentially thousands on the cost of college.

I've worked with one of the top tutoring companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that to you at a much more affordable rate.

My scores were
ACT: 34/36 (I would no doubt get a 35 or 36 if I took it today)
SAT: 2400/2400 superscore
(My scores helped me get into Duke University, earn a full tuition scholarship to Colgate U and a Full-Ride (Tuition and Room & Board + free laptop) to The College of New Jersey)

I've also received 800's on the Math IIc and Physics subject tests, and 11 perfect scores on Advanced Placement Exams, so I'm a test taking pro.

In addition to this, I integrate valuable life lessons rarely taught or even mentioned in primary school and college that help students become more successful and balanced people in the real world. My students continually come back to me and thank me for showing them these quick and simple tools in stress management and productivity.

I call it the Holistic Approach or Whole-Person Centered Tutoring.

Get a FREE SAT & ACT consultation so we can learn more about each other and you can learn why these tests offer the easiest way for juniors to get into college and the easiest way to get top scholarships!

My students have earned scores that helped them get into the Ivy League, and they have earned scores that earned them full-tuition scholarships!

I consistently score above a 700 on this section and have achieved the coveted 800 before. I've worked with one of the top companies in NYC who would charge $400/50 minute session. I learned a lot from that experience and want to bring that to you at a much more affordable rate. My approach breaks down questions by difficulty level so you gradually progress to harder problems. There's many ways to study vocabulary. I've sorted the various approaches and picked out the best resources for each approach.

Truly Amazing

Dan is an amazing ACT tutor! I have worked with a few ACT tutors, but none compare to Dan. He truly cares about the student and clearly prepares well for his lessons! I look forward to continued work with Dan, and I can already see huge improvements. I would HIGHLY recommend Dan, he is extremely knowledgeable,helpful, and professional!

Patience is a virtue

You do not have to text with Dan many times to learn that he is very intelligent and knows the material pertaining to prepping for the ACT. I was searching for someone with that talent and happy to have found Dan. I explained him that I knew that he had tutored many people to raise their ACT scores but could he be successful with a student that had ADHD and little dyslexia. That would require a lots of patience. Dan rose to the ocassion and exercised patience and understanding pertaining to the difficult situation we had with my grandson. I want to thank Dan he wss great and I would recommend him to anyone. Dan thank you for your help.

great SAT tutor

Dan was a great tutor and picked up perfectly where our last tutor left off. We were in a bind with losing our tutor just over a month before the SAT and Dan was able to help prepare Chris the week before. I plan on continuing to work with Dan to get Chris prepared for his next attempt at the test, very easy to work with and breaks things down for easy understanding. Plus provides good tips for navigating the exam. I cannot thank him enough.

Excellent Tutor!

Dan took the time to speak with me at length before we decided that he would tutor my son for ACT Test Prep. He is very patient with my son, very knowledgeable, always accessible and even gives study guidance outside of the lesson time. We look forward to working with Dan weekly to achieve the optimal ACT score for my son.

Robin, 16 lessons with Dan

Respectful, knowledgeable, personable, as well as relatable tutor to an 18 year old.

Dan gave detailed feedback about his sessions as well as my grandson's progress and learning difficulties and progress. I appreciated his honesty and directness about the sessions. My grandson really respected Dan and valued his expertise and advice.

Knowledgeable, patient, and an overall great tutor

From reading the other reviews I had high expectations for Dan. By the end of the first meeting I knew I chose the right tutor. Dan is very knowledgeable and explains topics until you feel comfortable moving onto another topic. I would recommend Dan to anyone who needs a good ACT tutor for a low price.

Great ACT Test Prep

Dan has a wealth of knowledge regarding the ACT test. I like how he focused on each subject per section to help the student master and review concepts before moving on. He is extremely patient and thorough with what he is teaching. I will continue to use Dan for his tutoring to help my son increase his ACT scores.
