"Hello! I'm Daniel, a molecular biologist and data scientist currently working remotely as a Computational Biologist for a biotech startup in Connecticut. I have more than 15 experience in tutoring and hold a PhD in cell and molecular biology. In my regular work as a researcher, I've published journal articles on numerous topics in science, including mutagenics, stem cell biology, gene network analysis, integrative data analytics, and more, particularly specializing in stem cell biology and large-scale data analysis.

I have held numerous tutoring and teaching positions, both with schools as a certified teacher and privately. Among them, I was a science tutor from October 2007 to July 2009 where I tutored all math and science courses at my undergrad university and tutored disabled students through my university and the State from January 2009 to July 2009. Throughout my graduate career (2009-2015) I worked as a TA for the school while continuing as a private tutor. In addition, I worked with Mad Science as a performer, going to school events, parties, and classes for elementary and middle school aged kids.

Since earning my PhD, I have continued to work with students and groups in subjects from elementary to graduate school to curious adult learners, both online and in-person. I primarily focus on assisting with math and science courses, learning strategy assistance, and test prep for AP courses, along with the SAT, ACT, GRE, and more. My students have achieved 5s on AP tests from being on the brink of dropping out, perfect scores on SAT subject tests, improved SAT test scores by hundreds of points, and earned positions in 90+ percentiles of scoring.

I prefer to tutor using the Socratic method. I don't give out answers to students, but instead facilitate the students to let them find answers and lead them in the right direction. While I mostly tutor upper-level students now, I love working with children and have lots of experience tutoring and teaching elementary and middle-school aged children." less...
