“I worked with David last semester for both Chemistry and Physics. I was so impressed! You can also throw almost any challenging problem from Intro to Chemistry or Physics his way and he will be able to guide you through the solution with different approaches. I would start a session feeling very lost and end the session with confidence. David's positivity, encouragement, and patience made learning the material an enjoyable experience!”

“David really knew pathophysiology incredibly well. He was able to explain processes to me that I was struggling with. He was an excellent tutor not only because of his thorough knowledge, but also because of the way he broke down difficult concepts into smaller, more understandable parts. He also often had me teach these concepts back to him, a study method that I found to be extremely helpful. I came to David with a failing grade in this course and, with his support, I was able to pass my class. Thank you for your support, David!”
