Introduction: I take a holistic and foundational approach with my students. I understand that no two students operate the same way, and so I tailor my lessons and instructions towards the best style for my students. I take great care in developing an empathic relationship with my students. I find out what their strengths and weaknesses are and help them build from there. I serve to highlight their strengths and shore up their weaknesses. I like empowering my students and helping them discover the inner confidence and resiliency necessary to succeed in any academic endeavor.

My daughter has had two ACT sessions with Denny. He is patient and is completely understanding of her needs. Denny is not only well organized, patient and thorough, but he also goes beyond in providing lesson plans; he assigns her home work daily to help her avoid procrastination. Excellent tutor! Professional, well prepared! Extremely smart, but still very patient, positive and encouraging when someone doesn't understand a concept. Highly recommend him for ACT prep!!!!

We all know when it comes to the SATs there is guaranteed to be a lot of stress. As a sixteen year old high school student going through the SAT process, I can vouch for this. My anxiety began months ago. I admired people who had started their SAT prep a year before, while envying students who were just naturally good test takers, scoring 2000 and up; however, when you dont fit into either of those categories you start wondering what now? At that point an SAT tutor seemed like a good idea. Enter Danny Ahn. The first time I met Danny, I was unsure what to expect. He understood my confusion and began to structure a plan of action. He soon established the level I was at in English and Math, and then focused in. After a few sessions I began to understand the kind of approach required of me. I have worked with Danny Ahn weekly since around late October or early November, 2013 and our work is ongoing. It is now Feb. 17, 2014. I have found Danny to be a good communicator and listener. He is dedicated, nurturing, focused, and hardworking, going beyond his allotted time with me to help me achieve my goals. He genuinely cares about my mental well being as well as my academic standing. He is readily available on the phone and via text, and has proven to be accommodating with regards to scheduling. I believe that Danny is pushing me in the right direction and I am feeling increasingly more confident with regards to the dreaded upcoming SATs. Danny has an excellent understanding of the SAT requirements and I feel that with his continued guidance I can achieve my goals.

They were able to zero in on exactly what my son needed (a particular topic for the Regents exam) and explain it in a way my son understood. Also gave him extra homework! All in all a very smooth and easy process. Super expensive, but I went this way instead of broader approaches because we needed something specific.

Details: 8th grade • Algebra • 14 - 17 years old • Learn new topics and techniques • Once a week • On an ongoing basis • As soon as possible • Evening (after 6pm) • Late afternoon (3pm - 6pm) • Not available Saturday - Sunday • Need some more information before hiring • Phone or internet (no in-person meeting) • I travel to the math tutor

Danny is really great. I am working with Danny to take the CLEP exam in Algebra and it has been many, many years since I have been in school, so I remember very little about the subject. Danny is very knowledgeable and warm and immediately puts me at ease. He is dependable and calm and always manages to lift my spirits when I get discouraged. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

He helped my daughter really focus on areas of weakness in relatively short period of time. She increased her SAT score 130 points. Really lovely fellow.

FAQs

What types of customers have you worked with?
Most of my clients are high school students who are preparing for the SAT/ACT test. They come to me feeling anxious about the test, feeling the heavy weight of its importance for their future. My goal is to assuage these feelings of anxiety while equipping my students with the tools and the self-assurance necessary to conquer the test. I equip them with a standard strategy to do the test normally, as well as a "panic" strategy to use if they get into trouble or are running out of time. My students have achieved great success using both, and I look forward to working with others who wish to excel.
