Testimonials

“Dan explained topics very clearly and simply. It was worth the months of studying.”
Score went from 500 to 950
Eric Bryan -
“Daniel presents material and examples very well, maintains focus, improves clarity, precision and accuracy in descriptions of phenomena, mathematical representation, etc. Excellent conversation, patience, demeanor coupled with expertise. Great desire to learn and help. Daniel exceeded my expectations for what is an unusual pursuit by me in independent research and acquisition of knowledge.”
Don, Theoretical Solid State Physics Student -
“I have engaged over ten tutors in the past twenty years to help me self-study topology, differential geometry, general relativity, and QFT. All of them were very talented, but Dan is without question the "supremum of the set," in that he is the most knowledgeable and delightful. No question in his broad purview remains unanswered. He furthermore allows you to follow a non-linear learning path, if so desired, and sample any topic in which you are interested at any time. He always avails himself to unscheduled questions that come up as you study. However, the most wonderful of all of his many attributes is the fact that Dan conveys his love, enthusiasm and wonder for the spectacular physical universe around us. In short, Dan is the best. Look no further.”
