"Hi, I'm Dan, I've been tutoring Pre-Algebra through Calculus and math SAT for many years in Montgomery County, DC, and Northern Virginia.

I Edited and co-authored 8 test preparation books including 2 Math SAT books, Math SAT 800: How to Master the Toughest Problems and SAT Math Prep 800: Challenge Yourself to a Perfect Score. I have a BA in Mathematics and Geophysical Sciences (University of Chicago) and a Master in Education (Johns Hopkins University). I also more recently earned a BS in Atmospheric Sciences from the University of Maryland/CP
I keep the student focused by guiding the student to the answer rather than lecturing. Learning is a process of discovery, and students benefit from analyzing their mistakes and practicing problems multiple times to avoid careless mistakes. I help students understand why things are true, rather than having them memorize. I have expertise with children with ADHD/ASD/Dyscalculia/GT.
One of my greatest joys is seeing a student improve their grades and get into their first-choice college. I love to see students surprised that they are good in math and gain confidence and self-esteem, knowing that they can do things they never thought they could do.
Let me help your child achieve their academic goals." less...
