Hi! I'm Eric, currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics at Stony Brook University with a 3.61 GPA. What fascinates me most about math isn't just the formulas—it's how abstract ideas connect and come to life in surprising ways. Through advanced coursework in analysis, topology, and measure theory, I've discovered how true understanding emerges when we link concepts across disciplines. This shapes my tutoring approach: helping students explore deep connections between topics like algebra and geometry rather than memorizing isolated rules.
Over the past three years, I've tutored middle and high school students in diverse settings ranging from one-on-one sessions at the High School for Dual Language and Asian Studies to small-group workshops at Brooklyn Public Library. Working with students aged 12-18 taught me that breakthroughs happen when we anchor concepts to their interests. That's why I developed specialized methods like integrating chess strategies to teach probability and spatial reasoning which is a technique that boosted engagement by 60% for my students. Whether guiding beginners through pre-algebra or helping AP Calculus students visualize multivariable concepts, I adapt each session to make abstract ideas tangible.
