About the lesson
I like to act as a coach or personal trainer on you academic journey: your successes are my successes as well! We learn from each other and that way we can both be invested in the material.
I have tutored many different people from all walks of life. I have experience tutoring persons with disabilities, athletes, priorities other than school, and the student that want to get ahead.
I am fully integrated to the online platform, and you will receive notes from your lesson after each session.

About Derek
My name is Derek, and I have been a professional tutor for over 7 years. I have a degree in both cognitive science and mathematics from UC Berkeley (CAL) and the University of Oregon (UO) respectively.
I am considered a high energy and empathetic person; and I am able to make any student laugh with me.
Tutoring math (and science) is not only my profession, it is my passion. I love that "ah ha" feeling, and I love having my students experience that feeling the most.
When I am not tutoring or working I enjoy walking my 2 year old black pug, reading, and playing some games.

Perfect! Derek kept checking my son understood the material before moving on to the next problem.

I have known Derek for more than a decade. He has always been a thoughtful, patient, and trustworthy teacher and friend. Anyone who meets and gets to work with him is lucky!
Derek was super great to work with, he worked with me and my busy schedule and was super supportive throughout our sessions. He helped me strengthen my math skills and celebrated my achievements with me.
Derek is an empathetic, intelligent individual who is passionate about math. I had the privilege of working and learning with them at university. They are knowledgeable, patient, and able to explain concepts from multiple perspectives to allow the learner to understand all the necessary concepts. Derek truly makes math approachable and fun!!
First time i understand maths. Thank you so much! Helped me a lot!!
With a fun outgoing personality! Derek makes math it easy to understand, instead of just getting through it. His great energy and out look on algebra kept me engaged and doing well!
I highly recommend Derek as a teacher. No matter your math abilities, Derek will find a way to present the material in an engaging and thorough manner.
