I hold a Master’s degree in Statistics from the University of Delaware and a Master’s degree in Mathematics from Purdue University.

Hello! My name is Eugene, and I have over 25 years of experience teaching and working with mathematics in academic and professional settings. I hold a Master’s degree in Statistics from the University of Delaware and a Master’s degree in Mathematics from Purdue University. I previously taught at both Purdue University and the University of Delaware, and I bring the same clarity and patience to tutoring that I used in the classroom. I also spent many years as a senior analyst and SAS programmer, where I regularly applied mathematical reasoning, statistics, and problem solving in real-world situations. These experiences allow me to explain concepts in a clear, practical way that makes math feel more understandable and less intimidating for students.

My tutoring approach is supportive, patient, and step-by-step. I work with students to build confidence by helping them understand why a method works, not just how to perform it. I tutor Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and introductory Statistics, and I am familiar with North Carolina’s math standards (NCSCOS), which emphasize conceptual understanding and multiple strategies. Whether a student needs help with homework, test preparation, strengthening foundational skills, or overcoming math anxiety, I tailor each session to their learning style. My goal is always the same: to make math clearer, more approachable, and more enjoyable for every student I work with.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

“I specialize in Algebra 1 and teach it in a clear, step-by-step way that helps students truly understand the concepts behind the procedures. My background includes university-level teaching at Purdue and the University of Delaware, and I’m very familiar with North Carolina’s Algebra 1 standards (NCSCOS), which emphasize conceptual understanding, problem-solving, and multiple strategies. Whether a student needs help with linear equations, functions, inequalities, polynomials, or factoring, I focus on making the ideas intuitive and building confidence along the way.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I tutor Algebra 2 with a clear, patient approach that helps students connect new concepts to the foundations they learned in Algebra 1. With university teaching experience at Purdue and the University of Delaware, I explain complex topics—functions, quadratic equations, polynomials, rational expressions, exponentials, logarithms, and systems—in a way that finally makes sense. I’m familiar with North Carolina’s Algebra 2 standards (NCSCOS) and focus on building confidence and strong problem-solving skills.
Calculus

Calculus

I have a strong background in calculus and experience helping students understand key topics such as limits, derivatives, applications of derivatives, and introductory integration. My approach focuses on building conceptual understanding so students can see why methods work, not just how to apply formulas. I work step by step, adjust explanations to the student’s learning style, and help students gain confidence in problem solving. I support students who want to strengthen fundamentals, prepare for exams, or stay on track with their coursework.
Common Core

Common Core

I am qualified to teach Common Core–aligned mathematics based on my graduate-level training in mathematics and statistics and my experience teaching and tutoring students across multiple grade levels. I hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics from Purdue University and a Master’s degree in Statistics from the University of Delaware. My academic background emphasized mathematical reasoning, conceptual understanding, and clear communication, which directly align with the goals of Common Core instruction. In my tutoring, I focus on the Common Core emphasis on understanding why mathematical procedures work, using multiple representations, and developing problem-solving skills. I help students connect concepts across topics such as ratios, proportional reasoning, linear relationships, functions, and algebraic thinking. I adapt lessons to each student’s level and learning style, supporting both skill development and mathematical confidence while staying aligned with Common Core expectations.
Statistics

Statistics

I have extensive experience teaching and applying statistics at both the high school and undergraduate level. I hold advanced degrees in Mathematics and Statistics, and I have used statistical methods throughout my professional career in data analysis and applied problem-solving. My tutoring focus is on helping students truly understand concepts such as probability, descriptive statistics, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, regression, and interpretation of results. I am especially effective at working with students who feel anxious about statistics, using guided questions and clear explanations to build confidence and comprehension. I emphasize conceptual understanding over memorization so students can apply statistical reasoning independently in coursework and exams.
