Dan
AP Chemistry, Organic and General Chemistry - Years of Experience
As an experienced high school and college chemistry teacher, I have helped many students succeed despite their fear of chemistry, or an unfortunately poor teacher they have. You will be so prepared for class, you will be confident enough to help your fellow classmates. I am very experienced at organic chemistry and college chemistry. You will benefit from my experience and ability to predict what questions will be asked on these tests. I am familiar with all the college texts. As an experi...

tax preparation
I have been an tax preparer at a well-known tax preparation company for 20 years and have received my Enrolled Agent (EA) certificate from the IRS (an EA can represent clients before the iRS, although not in tax court, when a tax attorney is required). My expertise includes anything to do with taxes, from the standard family with W2 income (from 1040) and mortgage and property tax deductions (Schedule A), to those with a Schedule C because they are self-employed, to rental income (Schedule E), to stock sales (Schedule D), to Partnerships (form 1065), and finally S-Corps (form 1120-S). There isn't any type of tax return I haven't encountered because of my many years preparing taxes. My EA designation qualifies me to help you, and represent you, should you need an installment agreement, offer in compromise, or just to reply to an IRS letter. I can help prepare your taxes for you, or show you how to prepare your own using off-the-shelf software.

Dan is a great tutor - my daughters learned so much in a short period of time and so nice and patient.
Guoming Z. from Norwood, NJ
Dan is very knowledgeable in AP chemistry and he is very patient. One of the most important things I would like to mention that is he very responsible for his student by using his own time to solve my son's AP chemistry questions and won't charge extra fee. He is an honest, good, and responsible tutor.
Joyce K. from Clifton, NJ
I learned more from Dan in one review session than I did from my Chemistry professors in one month. He explains things much more clearly and gives plenty of examples for you to go over.
John C. from Millburn, NJ
Dan explains concepts so that I understand completely. He is very good at evaluating my strengths and weaknesses. He believes in my ability to succeed.
Mike V. from Wayne, NJ
Dan was a great organic chemistry tutor! He teaches exceptionally well and turned a terrifying subject into something I really enjoy now. He knows all the little tricks and will help you excel in your studies. Thanks for everything Dan! I really did appreciate all of your help and hard work!
Lisa H. from Caldwell, NJ
Our daughter is as tough as she is smart and focused. Dan is calm and confident. His soft spoken approach gets through and is effective. Friendly, knowledgeable and prepared.
Amanda A. from Clifton, NJ
Dan was a great tutor. I learned a lot from him, much more than I was able to learn in class alone. I recommend him to anyone who wants to learn from a very experienced tutor and a very nice guy. I just wish I found him much earlier in the semester so he could have helped me even more.
Susan S. from Pleasantville, NY
We were pleased with Dan who helped my son succeed with a new level of academic rigor in Honors Chemistry. That's why we were disappointed in December when he announced that he'd would stop tutoring for the spring semester because he is a tax preparer during tax season. It's been difficult to find a replacement and get into the swing of things. As much as I like Dan, I'd want to confirm that a tutor was going to be available throughout a school year.
Patricia D. from Wayne, NJ
Dan is very knowledgeable and able to explain complex concepts in more simple terms that can be easily comprehended. My only regret was that we did not contract his services earlier in the year.
Leony D. from Paramus, NJ
Dan is very knowledgeable in Chemistry. He is very helpful and motivational and has a very flexible schedule. My daughter said that she learned a lot in just one session.
Brian T. from Glen Rock, NJ
My son has been very happy with Dan's tutoring. He is understanding the chemistry concepts for the AP exam and is feeling ready for the exam in May. Dan is very reliable and easy to reach. I would recommend him to anyone looking to increase their chemistry knowledge.
Carol C. from Hasbrouck Heights, NJ
Dan has been tutoring my son in the SAT Math section for the upcoming SAT. My son has a better understanding of the math concepts and how to confidently answer the section. Dan has been flexible, patient and on-time for all of our sessions. I'm extremely satisfied with the caliber of Dan's professionalism and knowledge.
Robert M. from North Arlington, NJ
I had a set of specific items to review, and he dove right in. I feel like I have mastered most of the material and that which I have not mastered I can do so easily with the help given. I strongly recommend Dan B. as a tutor.
Debbie S. from Oradell, NJ
Dan has accommodated my daughter's college schedule and has made himself available for her intersessions and breaks. He is very talented in breaking down difficult material and providing positive support and encouragement.
Fran F. from Bloomfield, NJ
Dan began tutoring my 15 year old son in Chemistry and Algebra II this year. He is patient, flexible, knowledgeable and reliable and will go the extra mile to get the job done.
J J. from Bronx, NY
Dan is an extraordinary chemistry tutor. He is so adept at explaining abstruse material in such a way that you will wonder why you ever found the subject matter difficult to understand. After Dan explains in detail the new concepts, he presents shortcuts that are so practical that even I will have to go to great lengths to forget. Besides his extensive knowledge, Dan is humble. In my book that means alot. Keep up the good work and thank you s-o-o-o much!
Justin D. from Westwood, NJ
Dan showed me various equations and went through the problems in great detail. I enjoyed his teaching, and his enthusiasm for chemistry.
Jen W. from Palisades, NY
Dan is helping my son prep for Chem SATs. First, Dan was early to the session. He also went beyond the time to make sure that my son understood the materials covered in first lesson. My son and I are both extremely pleased and impressed at his knowledge and attention. Thanks, Dan!
Brett D. from Forked River, NJ
Dan gave me a better, broader view of the subject along with some skills. Was very knowledgeable because he has much teaching experience.
Ian C. from Brookline, MA
Dan is a very professional and yet accessible tutor who is devoted to teaching his students in the most understandable way possible.
Danielle M. from Jersey City, NJ
Dan makes the impossible possible! He will explain things in such a way that you actually understand and feel confident!!
Karen R. from Caldwell, NJ
Dan was very helpful in explaining the complex AP Chemistry topics. He was very patient and has a strong command of the topic.
Megan P. from Basking Ridge, NJ
Dan knows organic chemistry extremely well! He looked at my exams from this semester and immediately figured out my teacher's super specific way of drawing molecules & wording of questions and helped me translate not only what she is teaching but also what she is testing us on into a language I can finally understand. He is very encouraging but most importantly can pick out your strengths and weaknesses and guide the session accordingly. Also, when I asked him to create a chart for alcohols to help me identify what happens in certain reactions, he went above and beyond, including every kind of reaction possible. It is not cluttered or too extensive. The material is in front of me and is manageable! I am so grateful to finally, fully understand orgo. Thanks, Dan!
Hector B. from Secaucus, NJ
Dan has been a great help in chemistry, my grades have improved so far. I will keep using him and highly recommend it to anyone needing help in chemistry.
Maria K. from Little Falls, NJ
Dan was an excellent tutor. My child was so confident the next day for her test I also heard them laughing which was a great sign Dan was definitely somebody who enjoyed what he does unlike her chemistry teacher in school she probably learned more from Dan in an hr than a week in her chemistry class
Jamilah B. from Little Falls, NJ
Super caring and plenty of patience. I'm a pretty impatient learner and he helped me no matter how many time I needed to ask the same questions! Awesome guy and very knowledgeable.
