I completed my PhD in math at Indiana University, where I taught undergraduate courses in finite math, algebra, and calculus. Over the last two years I taught high school at Interlochen Center for the Arts, focusing on discrete math with connections to music and visual art. I'm currently a remote instructor at Cleveland State University teaching Calculus I and Abstract Algebra. All together I've spent the past 12 years teaching and tutoring a wide variety of courses and age groups. I like to...

Highly recommend him for complex math topics
Knowledgeable tutor, engages with the student to make sure they understand the topic. Communicates promptly as well. We plan to use him again in future. His availability on the weekends was a big plus for us!

knowledgeable and a patient tutor
He understands my problems and explains them step by step. He is very knowledgeable and very patient with me. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs some statistics help.

Amazing Finite tutor!
Ryan helped me in College level Finite. He was prompt to answer my request , thorough with his teaching and very relatable. I will definitely be using him again as my tutor and highly recommend him.

Excellent teacher
My sons were almost failing Finite math and thanks to Ryan’s fantastic communication and teaching skills, both have raised their grades to a B. Could not be happier with hiring him!

Knowledgable, engaged and patient
Had one session with Ryan so far. It went very well and we have more planned. His knowledge is a given, he has a PhD in math, but he was also patient, engaged, prompt, flexible, and affable. He is also quite accommodating with scheduling and is prepared when the session starts. In his bio he mentions he has 12 years of experience teaching experience and this is quite evident when you work with him. His ability to relate ideas and communicate concepts comes across right away. It was really important to me that the session be enjoyable and it could not have worked out better.

The BEST
My daughter is thriving in Precalculus because of Ryan. She said that because of how simplistic he breaks down his lessons she was able to pass her test by obtaining the highest score in the class. He is always responsive and patient. Book him immediately you won't regret it!

Incredible teacher, nice and patient person!
I thought I had no chance of passing my abstract math final, but I killed it (and graduated!) after a few sessions with Ryan. I've never used wyzant before so I was a bit nervous, but Ryan was able to solve problems on the spot and explain them in a digestable way. He is very knowledgeable, but super approachable and he worked hard to make sure I understood the concepts. I definitely recommend this tutor, thank you Ryan!
Mason, 3 lessons with Ryan
the best tutor around
Ryan is extremely knowledgeable in Haskell, programming concepts and mathematics (and many other things). It was hard to find someone who knew Haskell and could explain it well, and I would have definitely failed my class without him. He is very patient, understanding and kind. 10/10 tutor and person in general. Will be working with him again in the future and would highly recommend him to others.

Good at explaining material and always patient
So far I have completed my second session with Ryan and I can say is that he is a very wonderful tutor. He helps break down complicated concepts and works with you to ensure you understand the topics. He is also very patient with you. With me personally, I can be a bit slow when it comes to math but Ryan recognizes this and does his best to help me. He is definitely my favorite tutor
