About Eric


Bio

Hello, my name is Eric.

I've taught AP Calculus AB and BC and every AP Physics class (C, B, and 1 -both the Calculus and trig based courses) for 25 years. I have taught college classes and ONLINE ap physics and calculus classes also. In addition , I was selected as an AP calculus exam reader/grader by College Board. I am AP calculus and AP Physics certified by College Board and IB physics Certified by International Baccalaureate.

Hello, my name is Eric.

I've taught AP Calculus AB and BC and every AP Physics class (C, B, and 1 -both the Calculus and trig based courses) for 25 years. I have taught college classes and ONLINE ap physics and calculus classes also. In addition , I was selected as an AP calculus exam reader/grader by College Board. I am AP calculus and AP Physics certified by College Board and IB physics Certified by International Baccalaureate.

Here are a few of my other qualifications:

1. After high school, I spent 6 years in the Navy as a nuclear reactor operator aboard a nuclear submarine I then attended Georgia Tech, where I received a BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering graduating with highest honors.

2. While at Georgia Tech, I spent 2 years as a teaching assistant teaching heat transfer and thermodynamics. This was an experience I enjoyed so much that I eventually became a classroom teacher where i have taught most every math class and some chemistry - but mostly AP calculus and AP physics

3. My AP exam pass rate was 100% for the first 3 years. and every year since my class enrollment boomed to standing room only!

6. In fact, in it's "2007 report to the Nation," College Board recognized my AP Calculus class as "exemplary" and having the most students in the nation pass the AP calculus exam.

I can offer you and your student both the clear explanations of an experienced AP teacher and the expertise of an engineering professional. Students respond well to my humor and straight forward teaching style. In fact, on the website "ratemyteacher” I have the highest rating at my school where former students state "the best math teacher I have ever had in college or high school", and "The reason I became a physics major at Harvard."

I know choosing a tutor - with so many good ones to choose from - is tough. But since I actually teach AP Calculus and AP Physics (for 25+ years), I know the AP Physics and AP Calculus exam and class material inside and out. I have access to all of the AP tests and teacher resour

Calculus

Calculus

I have been teaching AP Calculus for 18 years. I also teach AP Physics regular and Advanced Placement which is Trig and CALCULUS based. My AP calculus class was ranked number one in the nation by College Board. My AP Physics class is also one of the best. I graduated from GA Tech where I received a Masters and BS in Mechanical Engineering. I graduated number three in my class. While in grad school at TECH, I taught Thermodynamics. Also, I was a Physics major at GA State where I earned a 4.0 GPA. Previously I was a reactor operator on a nuclear submarine in the Navy. So how can an engineer be a whiz at calculus? It turns out that every engineering calculation at Tech was a calculus problem! So needless to say, I am extremely experienced and more importantly, extremely good at teaching. I am funny and can explain the most complicated topics in a easy to understand manner. I hate to brag, but teaching Physics and Calculus is what I do for a living and having me tutor you is like having Michael Jordan come to your home to help you with basketball!

First-rate AP Physics C Tutor

Eric tutored my son in BC Calculus, and he received a 5 on the AP test, so of course when he started to falter a bit at the beginning of the year in AP Physics C, we called on Eric, who cleared up his areas confusion right away, miraculously so. My son always says that 10 minutes with Eric is the equivalent of a few hours in class - he makes everything crystal clear. Eric not only helped him maintain an A in the class, but gave him a solid preparation for the AP test, with targeted strategies, efficient study approaches, and effective pointers that helped him achieve a 5. And to boot, my son always enjoyed his time with Eric, ever kind and supportive, and I appreciated that he was readily available to help last-minute with difficult questions (read: panic) before tests throughout the year. We are super grateful for Eric, and recommend him to any student needing an assist in calculus or physics!

Tutor responded:

Thanks so much. It has indeed been a pleasure working with you the last 2 years!

Extremely knowledgeable and explained concepts well!

I reached out to Eric based on his 5 star rating and he did not disappoint. After the session, the first thing my son said was mommy, he didn't even need to read the questions; he literally just started solving. Mind you, we did not send him the assignment beforehand. Still waiting for the result for the test my son took the next day but we know the score is going to be a lot better than what it would've been without the session with Eric. He is definitely the right fit for my son. Thank you, Eric!

Great Tutor

Yesterday was Eric’s first time tutoring my son in Physics. My son said he was very impressed with Eric’s high level of expertise and broad knowledge. Eric was able to answer all kinds of questions with ease, and he truly helped my son understand the material better. On top of that, Eric has a very friendly and approachable personality. I believe he is an excellent teacher, and we are very grateful to have found him.

Great tutor! Can't say enough good things!

Eric taught our daughter implicit differentiation. She found the session very helpful to gain a deeper understanding of the materials. In the end, she was feeling much more confident in grasping the concept. Very happy we found Eric. Will definitely contact Eric for any future help. Highly recommend!

Thorough in AP Physics and Calc BC

Eric spent 20 minutes covering AP Physics and 40 minutes on Calc BC. He has been a great find, !! he provides the needed clarity and explanations my son needed. His confidence has been restored with only 2 lessons. It's perfect that Eric can cover the both subjects my son needs help in.

Knows the subject well and works well with kids

Eric is very engaging and able to teach. He makes the lesson engaging and fun. He uses very practical examples to help kids understand the problems. Nice teacher

Mike, 1 lesson with Eric

Knowledgeable and very helpful tutor!

Eric taught me kinematics and forces for Ap Physics 1. His use of real life examples helped me understand the content! He’s funny, very knowledgeable, and has much experience with teaching physics.

Excellent tutor

Tutored AP Physics C: Mechanics. My child, who is very good at math, was simply lost in how to approach/interpret physics problems and which method to use to answer the problems. Eric was very helpful in going through the fundamentals of "what", "why" and "how". He was upbeat and positive throughout.

Rob, 14 lessons with Eric

Very engaging teacher!

It was amazing how fast he cleared up my misunderstandings without being extra confusing. I really enjoyed my lesson. Can’t wait for the next one.

Catalina, 2 lessons with Eric

Funny and knowledgeable

Eric helped me feel very welcome and that is extremely important for an introvert like me. He seems to have a lot of experience teaching and is very reliable. I also appreciate how he incorporates funny stories that relate to each lesson so it's easier to remember important points. 10/10. Highly recommend.
