About

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, usually immediate or within minutes for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available through voice and a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving.

We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with fundamental learning. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results.

We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

ABOUT ME:

I'm a graduate of UCLA Engineering with a passion for explaining how the physical world works through math and physics along with 16 years of tutoring experience in those subjects, test prep, and computer skills. The teaching strategy I believe in emphasizes subject fundamentals, a powerful and necessary tool for higher problem solving. This strategy has proven very effective regardless of the student's educational background or mental ability. Besides being knowledgeable, I am motivating, caring, and patient in guiding your student to academic success!

    Dan was a life-saver! My son was up against finals in Physics and Math, we found Dan and he was working with my son within 24 hours and explaining concepts that had never been effectively taught.. My son walked into his exams with more confidence and understanding and for that we are very grateful.

    I feel compelled to share a great find we made last year. School had only been in session for two weeks before my kids came home lamenting that their AP Physics teacher left them totally confused and stressed out. Switching to a less demanding schedule wasnt an option so I decided to look for some help. Lord knows, it wasnt going to come from me or my husband! I found Daniel, a 2012 UCLA engineering grad who has been tutoring for many years. After the boys first meeting with him, the level of stress in our household plummeted and the boys did well on their first physics test. Weve decided to have him come regularly, just to make sure the boys understand the material and keep them confident. The boys ended up with As in the class and doing well on the AP test. Daniel was able to help them with anything they didnt get in their calculus class as well. So as you stare the next school year in the face, if your child has any difficulty with their studies, especially in math or physics, consider talking to Daniel. Hes a lovely young man and the boys really responded to him well.

    Daniel is an excellent tutor! He has taken daunting topics and broken them down, explained them thoroughly, and ultimately made them much simpler. He is very flexible with scheduling and is very easy to reach. With his help I raised my grade in math from a D to an A. I highly recommend Daniel for anyone looking for tutoring at any level. He is very qualified and effective.

    Daniel has tutored me through 2 years of college math including, calculus 2, calculus 3, linear algebra, and differential equations. He helped me on a weekly basis with homework assignments and preparing for tests. The way he taught cleared up all of my questions from lecture and changed my approach to math for the better. Thanks to Daniels methods and thorough explanations, I earned As in all my classes. If you seek a solid understanding of math and a professional tutor, I highly recommend Daniel.

    I was struggling with calculus 1 at SMC and felt very intimidated before Daniel came along. He helped me understand what calculus was all about and always explained new concepts clearly. Daniel went above and beyond his duties and was always on time. I ended up with an A and would highly recommend Daniel to any student with math needs.

    Very flexible with time, schedule. Tailors tutoring to students needs. Our son was taking Calculus 2 and he was just beyond patient with our son. His exam grades increased and on his final exam he aced it. Our kiddo became much more confident in understanding the material and learning more effective strategies. Highly recommended 👌
