Dave Becker
Professional Tutor
Award Winning Teacher
Trained for SAT/ACT Prep
From Kristen, Palm Beach FL
Dave is patient, funny, and encouraging. And he really knows his stuff. We have struggled to find a tutor who is really very versed in mathematics--and Dave has that in spades.
Dave encouraged my son to focus on what he DOES know and begin to work a problem. This is a very empowering way to teach, and has helped my son see math problems in a brand new way.
First lesson free if not fully satisfied.
Understanding, friendly, and patient, my knowledge of the teaching and learning of mathematics is extensive. I've been successfully teaching and tutoring mathematics for over 30 years and I strive to make learning enjoyable.
In addition, I have written and edited mathematics textbooks for over 20 years as an Executive Editor at a major publishing company and as a freelance writer and editor.

Makes Learning Fun
Dave helped our daughter better understand some Geometry concepts. She felt much more confident after he her lesson w/him. He cleared up a lot of confusion in such a short period of time and he makes learning fun! She is well-prepared for a test she's taking today. We'll most definitely use him again.

Encouraging and Inspiring
My son was discouraged with his online geometry course. Dave B. was so encouraging and inspiring to him, helping him find his own way to the answers and reviewing the processes with him, restoring my son's faith in his abilities, and renewing his interest in math. THANK YOU, DAVE!

Improved a Letter Grade
I have twins in the 11th grade. They are taking calculus and have been struggling. I found Dave online. He has been wonderful. Both my kids have improved a letter grade. He is able to explain the concepts in terms they can best understand. Both my children think he is the best. Their improvement is going to lead to expanded college choices for both of them. I would recommend Dave to everyone.

Skilled at Explaining Complicated Mathematical Ideas
When I was searching for the right tutor for my daughter ,I knew I wanted a real math teacher- many folks clearly know math but knowing math and knowing how to teach math is totally different. Dave is an experienced math teacher, skilled at explaining complicated mathematical ideas using different approaches to meet the student where she or he is. I would strongly recommend Dave.
