Excellent tutor
Eric is absolutely superb. He knows his material well and is able to explain the concepts clearly, precisely, and in simple terms. I highly recommend him. I had him for college level genetics and could not have done this course without him. He made every lesson easy to follow. He helped me comprehend even the most difficult material easily. You can’t go wrong with Eric. He is patient and smart. I highly recommend Eric as a tutor.

Superb communicator with tremendous knowledge
Eric is simply superb. He is working with my high school daughter on honors chemistry and advance pre-calculus. Eric is able to see macro as well micro perspective of learning. He quickly identifies which areas to beef up and which areas are strong. Working with a young smart teenage girl is not necessarily easy, but he has been an effective communicator and quickly earned her respect. I highly recommend him as a tutor in math and chemistry.

Super Knowledgeable and Creative!
Eric is a great resource for anyone doing pre-med or medical school applications. He is intimately familiar with the length, format and style used in standard medical school personal statements. He is also great for brainstorming anecdotes and topics to see how things flow. He's honest about what stereotypes and topics to avoid! More importantly, he will help you tell your story creatively!

Helpful with residency apps!
Eric took the time to listen and get to know me/my professional aspirations. He guided me in writing my personal statement and answered any questions while I was filling out my ERAS CV. He was helpful (giving concise/relevant advice), approachable, and always willing to make time to answer my questions.

Quickly and accurately identified several issues I was doing wrong
Eric is amazing, he was able to find several things that I was doing wrong while doing practice questions with him. He was able to explain that the Step 2 test really examines how well you answer Step 2 questions. Thanks Eric!
