I honestly believe that I can help anyone understand mathematics by demystifying it, leaving no questions unanswered and no concepts misunderstood from the most basic level of "what is a number?" I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Notre Dame and am currently an instructor at the University of Miami (Florida).

I honestly believe that I can help anyone understand mathematics by demystifying it, leaving no questions unanswered and no concepts misunderstood from the most basic level of "what is a number?" I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Notre Dame and am currently an instructor at the University of Miami (Florida). I have taught college courses at the University of Notre Dame and college courses to inmates at the Westville Correctional Facility through the Westville Education Initiative at Holy Cross College.

What qualifies me to tutor mathematics, outside of my expert knowledge of the field and its history, are my natural abilities to both communicate effectively with students of all ages and to share my passion for the ideas of mathematics (most people have never met somebody who likes math as much as I, or so they tell me).

So please, let me share with you the secret world of mathematics and open your eyes to the eternal truth and beauty of the patterns we discover!

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Eric established a nice rapport with my 14 year-old daughter, who struggles with math. He was very patient and let her try to explain how she would solve the problem, then kindly explained why that didn’t work, I wish her teacher at school was this good!

Vivian, 10 lessons with Eric

Great experience

Eric is very passionate about math and has a lot experience teaching math.

Tara, 26 lessons with Eric

Knowledgeable and patient.

I needed a tutor for my son in Calculus as he transitioned from high school to college. Eric was an amazing resource with a very flexible schedule. His expertise in mathematics was evident, but his ability to teach what he knew helped my son do very well in the class. I would highly recommend Eric. He's a gem!
