Dan

I love the moment when students begin to enjoy math

I studied Mathematics at the University of Utah (as well as Business Finance and Russian Linguistics). I offer a unique approach to mathematics that is relatable and easy to understand. I believe many professors forget how simple math can be and can easily leave students feeling lost. This usually happens when they use what I call Nerd Speak. I focus a lot on methodology. My general belief is that when you understand what a problem means, the "how-to" part is actually quite simple. I ...

Russian

I served a 2 year mission in St. Petersburg, Russia. After 4 months I was fluent. After 1 year I was chosen to translate for large groups, and for live feeds during church meetings. Since my mission, I have completed everything needed for a degree in Russian Linguistics. I stay up on my language, and practice often. The trick to a language is to fully think in that language, to get to the point where you dream in the language, and you don't even realize its foreign.

Joshua A. from Springville, UT

Dan has helped me with the ACT Math guide and with Math 1050. He is excellent and I love the online format.


Sara A. from West Jordan, UT

Dan is very easy to communicate with and is good at talking on my level. He knows what he is doing and has a good attitude.


Tami S. from Salt Lake City, UT

Dan was very flexible and easy to work with. He took an interest in how to best approach my sons learning style and meet his needs.


Chanse F. from Salt Lake City, UT

Initially skeptical about online tutoring, Dan changed my mind during one session. The technology he utilizes made things a lot easier to collaborate on and helped me to learn the concepts in a more organized fashion. Dan was patient, informative and extremely pleasant to deal with. Strongly recommend him for math students of ANY course to give him a shot. He won't disappoint.


Logan D. from Ogden, UT

Very knowledgeable and is willing to work with your schedule. I studied for 6 hours with him before my mid-term test and and went from feeling hopeless to confident.


Ali A. from Overland Park, KS

Dan is very smart person. He teach me discrete mathematics and he was helpful to answer my questions and explain them very well. I really recommend him. Thank you Dan


Leeyanna G. from Monterey, CA

After one hour with Dan I felt so much better about an up coming exam. He is patient and was able to teach at my level. I actually found calculus fun after just one session.


Sanjeev C. from League City, TX

My son who is a freshman in UT Dallas took "Differential Calculus" lessons from Dan and was very impressed. He ranked him as the best mathematics teacher he has ever come across. Dan was very well prepared and has a unique skill to make it interesting by giving real life example. Dan made my son realize the importance and utility of these concepts in solving real life problems. I know my son and he is very difficult to be motivated to like mathematics. We have decided to have Dan as our "Go-to" tutor for all the years my son stays in college. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone who would not only like to learn but also enjoy the concepts in mathematics.


April M. from Salida, CA

Laine was struggling with about four concepts on an upcoming calculus test. Her teacher had been out of town, and her usual resources for help weren't working out. We scheduled this session with Dan, and had a good experience. After her session, Laine checked her understanding by doing some problems, and found she had a better grasp of the material than when she had started. We'll know more after the test!


Mckay C. from Salt Lake City, UT

His online technique is similar to a live version of Kahn academy which is amazing and helps me absorb the information so more throughly.


Jasmine C. from Lakewood, CA

Dan is an amazing tutor! He helped me with problems that I alone would probably not be able to grasp. He explained things well and I also really liked his tutoring method. I definitely recommend him as a tutor!


Bailie S. from Tower City, PA

My daughter had her first lesson with Dan last night...afterwards she came to me in tears of excitement...."I understand, I understand".!!


Leigh M. from Chandler, AZ

Dan has done an excellent job tutoring my daughter in precalculus. While vacationing out of country she was able to arrange two tutoring sessions to help her with her online test. She passed her exam with flying colors.


Sherise D. from Saint George, UT

Dan is a wonderful tutor. He has brought so much confidence to my son. His communication online has been excellent. So grateful for his help! :)


Ryan K. from Prescott Valley, AZ

Dan is, without a doubt, the best tutor I've had. At first, I was very skeptical of doing a tutor session over a phone call using an app as a blackboard. After trying this method, though, I've found that I now much prefer it over face to face sessions. It is far more convenient, and I actually found the Jot app to be much better than an actual dry erase board (Due to functions such as drag-and-drop, quick erase, etc...) I've now used Dan for over a semester, and I've never understood a subject as well as I do calculus.
