Maths Tutoring (focusing on creativity and problem solving)

My goal is to help student build their own mental framework for navigating mathematics. The key is learning to synthesize new information while also gaining skills necessary for advancing in mathematics. I strive to help students build a mathematical intuition by using teaching techniques such as geometric proofs and story proofs. My hope is that students will not simply learn to complete assignments and find the right answer, but rather that they would develop a "healthy relationship" with maths based on understanding, exploration, creativity, and imagination.

Ideal for UK students in secondary school and sixth form or American students in high school and late middle school. I am also happy to tutor through SAT and ACT mathematics!

About Me

About me:
Hi there! I'm Daniel, a graduate of St. Andrews university with a degree in Mathematics and Philosophy. I now study pure mathematics with a focus on logic. I discovered my love of mathematics and logic later only after I began university, so I believe it's never too late to 'become a math person.' All it takes is the right teacher/tutor who makes the ideas 'click' for you! I would love to help you understand math and logic better! I can tutor anything from middle school math to calculus. I especially love tutoring logic: Aristotelian, first-order classical, modal... you name it!

My Approach:
My goal is to help students build their own mental map for navigating mathematics. I strive to teach students to understand how the various aspects of what they are learning fit together. The primary way I do this is through visual/geometric proofs and aids that illustrate and motivate the equations and formulae. However, since not every student will connect with my preferred explanation, I like to slow down and find what works for each student. I will often give a student specific examples to work through that help me discover his pattern of reasoning. That way, we can see clearly how to improve a student's problem-solving skills. I want my students to develop a relationship with mathematics based on exploration, creativity, and competence.

My qualifications:
I hold a first class degree from University of St. Andrews, one of the top ranked universities in the UK for mathematics and for philosophy. In my studies, I especially focused on algebra (group theory, ring theory), logic (classical, non-classical, model theory), and set theory (specially ordinal numbers).

My Experience:
I have been tutoring on-and-off throughout my studies for the last 4 years. I have previously tutored both high school and university students in small in-person sessions as well as one-to-one online. Past examples of tutoring include: SAT math, AP calculus, and university-level logic.

Student Testimonials:
"I highly recommend Daniel as a tutor, due to both his expertise and disposition. Not only does he understand the material well, but his patience in explaining the subject matter helped me enormously. He can explain things well for every kind of learner, which I found especially helpful as a visual learner myself. If in need of help, I would definitely recommend Daniel!!" -- Havana (undergraduate at University of St. Andrews)

Education

B.A. in Economics and Business Analytics, Patrick Henry College, summa cum laude.
Joint Honours in Mathematics and Philosphy, University of St. Andrews, first-class

Experience / Qualifications

I have experience tutoring mathematics (up through calculus and linear algebra) and logic .

Salah Eddine
Math tutoring for high school students
As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material! We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition. The sessions generally take place according to the following stages: 1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps. 2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises. 3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach. 4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively. 5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course. I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach. In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.
