David is a former instructor for University of California at Davis, and was consistently rated by students there as one of the best. He founded End Your Math Stress in 1991, and other than a couple of years working in the computer graphics industry, he has been teaching math as a full time profession ever since.

Nicole is a former instructor for University of Michigan, and was also consistently rated by students there as one of the best. She has been teaching math since 1992 and joined David at End Your Math Stress in 1994, where she has also been teaching math as a full time profession ever since.  Together we have helped thousands of students turn their math frustration into math success (see Our Guarantee).

In 1998 we developed a way to teach one-on-one, interactively, and in real-time over the Internet, so that we can help you in between sessions with the same effectiveness as in the sessions themselves (and we provide help in between sessions at no additional cost as part of our service). This also gives you a perfect record of everything we cover.

Our online system is TOTALLY equivalent to the in-person experience. It has nothing to do with zoom; we don't like zoom and would never use it to teach. And our system does not involve cameras, typing, clicking, pre-recorded videos, or any kind of computer program that does the teaching for us. We were the first ones in the country to teach interactively online at the university level, so we do have a system set up that is both unique and impressive (see our Teaching Method).
