Hello! I'm Daniel Ekoko, a passionate educator with a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science. I am committed to making math accessible, enjoyable, and understandable for learners at all levels, from elementary school to college. My expertise spans subjects such as Elementary School Math, GCSE Maths, Algebra, AP Calculus AB, and more. My teaching philosophy revolves around breaking down complex concepts into simple, digestible steps to help students truly understand the 'why' behind mathematical principles. I use a combination of real-life examples, interactive activities, and customized learning approaches to adapt to each student's learning style, ensuring that lessons are not just informative but also enjoyable. I believe that every student has the potential to excel in math with the right support, and my goal is to build their confidence, strengthen problem-solving skills, and cultivate a positive attitude toward learning. In my lessons, I foster an engaging, supportive environment where students are encouraged to actively participate, ask questions, and think critically. By working together, we can make math fun and rewarding, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth. Let's tackle those equations and build your skills to achieve your academic goals—one problem at a time!

Class overview
As an experienced math tutor for elementary, high school, and college students, I follow a structured yet flexible approach that adapts to the unique needs of each learner. My teaching methodology is built on the principles of interactivity, engagement, and fostering a deep understanding of math concepts. I believe that every student learns differently, and therefore I customize a learning plan that best suits their strengths, challenges, and pace. I emphasize a hands-on, problem-solving approach where concepts are broken down step-by-step, making complex topics accessible. Visual tools such as diagrams, digital whiteboards, and interactive online resources are key components of my lessons, helping students grasp abstract concepts through concrete examples. I use a pen tab for a seamless virtual experience, ensuring that each problem is solved clearly in real time, with opportunities for students to ask questions as we progress. To reinforce understanding, I incorporate short quizzes and practice problems tailored to each student's learning level. These exercises help solidify concepts and identify areas that need further exploration. I encourage my students to think critically, ask questions, and apply what they've learned to real-world situations. By relating math to everyday life, I make lessons more relatable and enjoyable. Above all, I strive to make math fun, engaging, and stress-free. By building a supportive learning environment, I help students boost their confidence, overcome challenges, and achieve their academic goals. Together, we turn math from a source of frustration into a subject of fascination.

Daniel and a student from Stanton College Preparatory School in Jacksonville reviewed L'Hôpital's Rule, limits, and derivatives, including power rule and trigonometric derivatives. The learner practiced applying these concepts to problems from an exam worksheet, including those involving absolute values, conjugates, and limits at infinity. Daniel assigned a follow-up breakdown of a tangent question for later review.
Power Rule for Derivatives
L'Hôpital's Rule
Derivative of e^x
Limits with Absolute Values
Limits with Conjugates
Daniel and a learner from UCLA reviewed French A1 concepts, focusing on verb conjugations, question formation, and vocabulary related to daily activities and preferences. They practiced conjugating verbs in the present tense using an interactive platform and described their weekend and vacation plans in French. Daniel assigned additional verb conjugation exercises to reinforce the concepts covered in the lesson.

In this calculus lesson, Daniel assisted Fiona in reviewing limits, continuity of piecewise functions, and an introduction to derivatives, covering the power, constant, sum, and difference rules. Fiona then practiced applying these derivative rules and was assigned additional problems for practice. Daniel recommended that Fiona seek clarification from Bridget if she had any questions.
Limit at Infinity
Power Rule
Piecewise Function
Continuity (using Limits)
Derivative of a Constant
Daniel and a student practiced French possessive adjectives, telling time, formal and informal pronouns, and verb conjugations, specifically 'aller' and 'avoir'. The student, who attends Fordham University in The Bronx, worked through practice questions to reinforce these concepts.
