About Daniel


Bio

I taught for seven years before changing to training hospital staff on their EMR. Being able to work with a student and help them build their understanding of a new topic makes my day. I've taught Physics, AP Physics 1, Chemistry, Algebra 1, Geometry, and a number of science electives.
I believe that all students are capable of success, but also that not every explanation works with every student. In our tutoring sessions, we'll find the types of explanations that best help you to...

I taught for seven years before changing to training hospital staff on their EMR. Being able to work with a student and help them build their understanding of a new topic makes my day. I've taught Physics, AP Physics 1, Chemistry, Algebra 1, Geometry, and a number of science electives.
I believe that all students are capable of success, but also that not every explanation works with every student. In our tutoring sessions, we'll find the types of explanations that best help you to understand the material.

My background in physics gives me a useful perspective on math: it's a useful tool that allows us to do so much. My focus is on the practical value of the math, with an emphasis on real-world applications.

Much of high school chemistry is focused on understanding the way the atomic world works. My background in physics gives me strong training in how to approach new material from a systems perspective. I can show you how to apply that to chemistry so that it becomes more than just a set of strange words to identify.

I look forward to hearing from you and would love the chance to help you grow your understanding of math and science.

Incredibly Thorough and Encouraging

Two of my daughters have been tutored by Daniel -- in physics and in math. He has been unwaveringly patient and supportive, leaving not only long, detailed reviews about what the girls should study next, what their relative strengths and weaknesses are, and also recommending additional reading and/or resources they can independently pursue between lessons. He keeps my children engaged and teaches them, what more could you ask for? We are so incredibly grateful to have Daniel as the girls' tutor!

Christina, 42 lessons with Daniel

Great at explaining concepts

My son needed some help with 11th grade Physics, and Daniel did an excellent job. My son was feeling lot more confident and prepared for his test after his session with Daniel.

Ryan, 2 lessons with Daniel

Absolutely fantastic, incredibly helpful!

My tutoring session was very productive, and I feel much more confident in this subject after receiving Mr. O’s help! I definitely plan to schedule another session when I need it!

Daisy, 1 lesson with Daniel

Very knowledgable
