About Daniel

For over two decades I have been helping students achieve their academic and personal goals. Although I make sure to prepare students for imminent exams, my larger goals are to help students best understand the course content, gain confidence, and learn to be professional students.

In general, I prefer to use a modified Socratic teaching method and urge students to be highly interactive. However, every student learns differently, so I constantly assess how I can best be of help. Students with whom I meet regularly are encouraged to contact me, within reason, between lessons to answer questions that they may have.

I primarily teach math and science, and help students prepare for the SAT and/or ACT. Almost all of my AP students earned a score of 4 or 5. One of my PSAT/SAT students received the National Merit Scholarship. My regular students generally report a sustained improvement in test scores and graded assignments within a few weeks.

If applicable, all or almost all laboratory experiments, including those that involve a computer-integrated sensors, and demonstrations can be performed – safety – without any charge for materials (extremely few exceptions).

My major at UCLA was Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology. I have about a decade of biomedical research laboratory and instructional laboratory experience, was a TA at UCLA for an organic chemistry course and a biology lab course and have completed most of an MD/PhD program. I have been a full time scientist or engineer at 2 major biotechs, but have been working at a small, not-for-profit biotech for the past 3 years.

Please call me at any time if you have any questions.

Really, at any time.

Thank you,

Daniel

About the lesson

My goal is to develop a relationship of mutual trust with each student. This enables me to better identify, and then overcome, learning barriers. I teach students to teach themselves and show them how to become professional students.

I ask students to provide me with regular feedback so I can make every effort to best help each student

I have worked with students in public, charter and private schools throughout California. Many of my students generally do well in school, but require my help for a particular problematic course.

Some students may be looking to better understand course material to ensure that a course grade of A is earned.

Some students contact me when the odds of passing a course are low and want me to pull a rabbit out of a hat. I usually produce that rabbit. Many of my students have had course grades improve from F to A. In these cases, I generally assess the feasibility of grade improvement and discuss possible and likely outcomes before proceeding. If substantial grade improvement is possible, I can usually make it happen.

Many of my students have diagnosed and undiagnosed learning disabilities, including ADHD and ASD. I have also met with homeschool students 5 days/week and was their primary teacher for math and science.

Look for someone that knows the relevant subjects and has teaching experience. Tutors and teachers with experience know how to quickly identify the specific needs of each student and have practiced a variety of ways to teach each concept.

As a scientist in an academic laboratory, a teaching assistant at UCLA and a tutor, I have experience teaching concepts in a manner that is best fit for each individual student and can explain how math, physics, biology, chemistry and other sciences are used in practice.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students, parents, and everyone involved in one's education should feel comfortable speaking with a teacher about any issues that may alter one's ability to learn.

If a teacher cares about your education, he or she will show it.

Sharing information about a student's needs with their teachers is very important.

Perfect! Daniel is an absolutely incredible tutor - not only brilliant, but also able to teach concepts quickly and effectively. He is actually the best tutor I have seen in math/sciences/SAT prep. He is helping both my son and daughter and they feel that he manages to make sessions genuinely entertaining as well. We would highly recommend Daniel as a tutor in SAT prep (all areas)/math and science courses!

Perfect! Daniel is great to work with! He really helped us out in a pinch and was able to work around our schedule and be flexible in providing as much time as my son needed. Daniel is responsive and able to understand different learning needs in a short amount of time.

Perfect! Daniel is fantastic! He’s highly communicative, flexible, and has kept me informed as a parent.

He is a wonderful tutor! He is patient and keeps my daughter engaged in test prep. She actually looks forward to the sessions (which says a lot for a teenager!) and has made significant progress.

Perfect! Daniel is committed to having his students learn and succeed. He spent countless hours engaging an otherwise unengageable Chemistry student and breaking down the subject matter. Undoubtedly, my daughter was on her way to flunking chemistry when Daniel came aboard. His instruction and patience made all the difference. Can’t believe she got an A. I would recommend Daniel wholeheartedly.
