About Me

I am currently working towards a Bachelor's of Arts in History, focusing on historiography, specifically Sovietology. I tutor all the humanitarian topics, including the SAT verbal and writing, English, essay composition and editing, world and U.S. history, and the whole spectrum of the REGENTS test. I like to break things down to their fundamentals and learn from the bottom up, so that it's easier to see how all the pieces of a topic fit together. A ten page paper might seem intimidating, until you break it down into a list of bullet points and ideas. Patience is a virtue and I exercise it dutifully. I'm comfortable tutoring all ages; a bit of empathy can span even decades, I believe. In my free time, I love surrounding myself with books and scraps of paper with inky pens, but when I do escape from between the pages I swim and play volleyball. I'm also fluent in Russian.

Q&A with Danil

I like to break things down to their fundamentals and learn from the bottom up, so that it's easier to see how all the pieces of a topic fit together. A ten page paper might seem intimidating until you break it down into a list of bullet points and ideas. Each person learns in their own way, so it's often very hard to find another person's wavelength right off the bat, but if you just begin by introducing the most basic pieces, the student can show you how they see them fitting together. I think that's very important for a more intuitive and thorough understanding of any subject.
