About Me
I have been tutoring since 2011 when I retired from developmental optometry, a specialty in which I saw the same children and adults on a weekly basis, using many of the same concepts that are used in tutoring. I have always enjoyed math which is necessary to understand optics and optometry and now I am pleased to watch my students' "aha" moments when they discover the joy of math.

Q&A with Daniel
Learning should be fun and interactive. I structure my lessons by imparting some basic knowledge and then asking leading questions so that my student can try to figure out the answers. I encourage my students to use visualization skills to picture math concepts in their mind's eye.
