Hi, I'm Erik! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering from The Ohio State University, graduating cum laude with a 3.6 GPA out of 4.0—an honor that placed me on the Dean's List for academic excellence. My studies span a wide range of computer science topics, from high-level programming in Python, Java, and JavaScript to lower-level systems work in C++ and x86-64 assembly code. I also gained hands-on experience in web development, particularly with Ruby on Rails,...
Hi, I'm Erik! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering from The Ohio State University, graduating cum laude with a 3.6 GPA out of 4.0—an honor that placed me on the Dean's List for academic excellence. My studies span a wide range of computer science topics, from high-level programming in Python, Java, and JavaScript to lower-level systems work in C++ and x86-64 assembly code. I also gained hands-on experience in web development, particularly with Ruby on Rails, giving me a well-rounded foundation to help students at all levels. Not to mention, my specialization for my major is Databases and Data Analytics (SQL, Data Science).
For two years, I worked with high school students online, guiding them through AP Computer Science A, Computer Science Principles, and introductory college-level programming courses. Then, I tutored middle school students in math and science in person for another year. I've found that students thrive when sessions are thoughtfully planned, so I always provide practice materials ahead of time and tailor each lesson to meet their specific goals. I also hope that the student can provide me with his or her class materials ahead of time to be well prepared. One-on-one tutoring gives me the chance to really connect and adjust my approach to fit each student's learning style.
Whether you're tackling a new programming language, prepping for an AP exam, or just trying to make sense of your class notes, I'm here to help. My goal is to make complex topics feel manageable, and even enjoyable, so you can grow your skills with confidence. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!
