Tutoring Services and Experience
Math PhD. My tutoring is usually problem-based, although I have many suggestions to improve mathematical proficiency generally and I can teach to the curriculum.

I was contract academic staff for 3 1/2 years at the University of Alberta Math Dept. before moving back to my hometown Calgary.

I am very attentive to what my students say and work very hard to incorporate their ideas into a solution to the problem at hand.

“Both (my children) were struggling to find consistency in maths and we were worried that their grades would deteriorate. David took on the task of helping our children through this difficult period and without question he has helped guide them and given them additional skills to do better. Since David has been giving one-on-one help to our both our children their grades have improved with the consistency that we were looking for. David has a unique gift, not only does he know math's he is a great teacher and developed very quickly a positive bond with our children. They both enjoy visiting David who has made them feel very comfortable in a home environment.” -- Martin

“I have nothing but good things to say about David and his math and teaching skills. If you need a math tutor without hesitation or a second thought I would recommend David, and thank him over and over for all his help.” -Jeffrey

“I've been tutored by David for the past few months for calculus. He has different approach then most, David figures out your strong and weak points and creates a way of teaching from there. He also relates the material to the student and gets to a level in which you understand. I recommend seeing David for any help with math.” –Eric

“I would like to sincerely thank you for all your help, I scored a 96 on my diploma exam and a 7/7 on my math IB exam and I believe a large part of this success can be accredited to your help, thank you very much. I have referred you to a few of my friends in grade 11 who are also interested in your help with mathematics, as you were an excellent teacher. It was an honour learning from you.” –Alvin
