Daniel - Know your tutor
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.

Mathematics concepts taught by Daniel
The Tutor introduced graphing sine and cosine functions, relating their properties to the unit circle, including amplitude, period, and zeros. The Student then reviewed u-substitution to solve polynomial equations and practiced factoring. The Tutor assigned further review for the upcoming test, rescheduling the next session to allow for more review.
Graphing Sine Functions
Graphing Cosine Functions
Relationship between Sine and Cosine
U-Substitution Technique
Factoring Quadratics
The session reviewed trigonometric functions, unit circle values, and special right triangles in preparation for an upcoming test. The Student worked through problems from a review packet, focusing on exact values, reciprocal functions, and finding missing side lengths and angles. The session included a review of key concepts and strategies for solving trigonometry problems.
Reference Angles
Exact Values of Trigonometric Functions
Reciprocal Trigonometric Functions
Working with Radians
Special Right Triangles: 45-45-90 and 30-60-90
ASTC Rule (All Students Take Calculus)
The Student and Tutor reviewed the unit circle, trigonometric functions, reference angles, and quadrant signs, practicing conversions between degrees and radians. They analyzed patterns within the unit circle to aid memorization and played a game to reinforce these concepts. The student was encouraged to play a similar game assigned by their teacher.
Quadrantal Angles
Patterns within the Unit Circle
Unit Circle Coordinates
Radian and Degree Conversion
Reference Angles
The Tutor guided the Student through a year-planning exercise to set academic, personal, and habit-related goals. The Student reflected on past achievements, identified obstacles, and created an accountability plan with specific consequences. The Student will set reminders to review their goals regularly and the next session will continue with trigonometry.
Accountability and Consequences
Overcoming Obstacles and Asking for Help
Building Effective Systems
Honest Self-Assessment
Setting SMART Goals
Year Planning with Intentionality
The Student and Tutor covered radians, degree conversions, co-terminal angles, and reference angles. The Student worked on problems involving conversions and finding reference angles in different quadrants. The Tutor assigned practice problems to solidify the Student's understanding of these concepts, particularly in relation to the x-axis.
Co-terminal Angles
Radians and Degrees Conversion
ASTC (All Students Take Calculus)
Angles in Standard Position
Reference Angles
The Tutor and Student reviewed trigonometric functions and problem-solving techniques. The Student practiced applying these concepts to word problems involving angles of elevation and depression, and reviewed trigonometric identities. The Student was assigned additional practice problems to complete.
Trigonometric Ratios: SOH CAH TOA
