MATHStat Tutoring
About
My name Dave Duff. I am a former math professor and currently professional musician. I also own a music manangement and booking company.
I graduated from Drexel University with a Bachelor's degree and went on to obtain my Masters in Applied Statistics from West Chester University.
I have a unique teaching style that enables math phobic students to achieve comfortability quickly enabling them to move past their anxiety and straight to learning. I create a comfortable, anxiety free environment for students to learn in.
I have been playing guitar for 30 years, bass for 10 years and mandolin for about 5. For guitar and bass students I utilize in person training, homework assignments and videos in between lessons to create a comprehensive lesson plan.
If you'd like to get a sense of my personality feel free to check me out on Facebook!
I love to teach. I am a natural born leader and I take great enjoyment and pride in watching the look of relief pass over a student's face when we have reached the point that they understand the concepts and the joy they feel in knowing they can move forward with a new grasp of mathematics.
I truly enjoy removing the fear and anxiety from the word math.
