Personal Statement

I am a patient tutor with almost twenty years of experience teaching science, math, and data science. Over multiple years, I have consistently been among the top 1% of tutors on Wyzant.

The majority of my tutoring is teaching graduate students and professionals computer programming, statistics, and database development. I also help high school and undergraduate college students with science, math, and computer programming. I specialize in data analytics for business and all sciences as wel...

Reviews

Eric has been tutoring and coaching me on using R for various analyses I have to complete for my PhD program. He is exceptional because he has the rare combination of deep expertise and great communication and teaching skills to help a novice like me understand the concepts and coding. He is also very patient. I am very glad I have Eric as a guide on my academic journey.
- Felicia J. from Merrillville, IN
I am learning R code and starting from square one. Eric has been helping me through an assignment. He gives thorough explanations that I can understand. Highly recommend.
- Johanna G. from College Station, TX
Eric is an awesome tutor. He knows R very well and he prepares in advance for each session so we are able to make great progress. He's a great communicator and teacher too. I never feel like he is talking down to me, even when I get confused about a point that is probably so simple to him.
- Felicia J. from Merrillville, IN
Eric is an amazing tutor because he takes the time to actually explain concepts and make everything make sense. I came into statistics knowing nothing about R studio or having any grasp on codes and once I began lessons with Eric, I actually started understanding rather than just attempting to copy and paste. I do not think I would have made it through my semester of graduate statistics if it were not for Eric so I would highly recommend him to any perspective students having difficulty that could use someone incredibly knowledgable and patient.
- Shana S. from Lynbrook, NY
I had no coding or R experience before meeting Eric, but through our lessons, I was able to learn the basics of R, how to re-organize data into the appropriate format, how to conduct statistical analyses (e.g., ANOVA), and so on! Eric is really knowledgeable and competent with the material he is tutoring in. He is also flexible with the lesson plan based on your needs, goals, money/time situation , and so on! Highly recommend!
- Jae K. from Nashville, TN
Eric has been so patient with me and explained things in a great detail to help my understanding. He is so knowledgeable to resolve any difficult issues in R. He is a great tutor, and I highly recommend him. :)
- Sam K. from Royal Oak, MI
Eric is a terrific tutor! His approach is exactly what I was looking for - to get a deeper understanding of R specifically with very big healthcare databases. Very flexible with session dates and times, and accommodating longer duration sessions. Highly recommend
- Marianne R. from Asheville, NC
Eric helped me review some basic functions in Rstudio and was clear in his explanations. As a new student to coding, I have learned more from Eric in one hour than I have learned from my self studies over the past two months. He is a good match for my requirements to learn RStudio and I will continue to use Eric in the near future for additional lessons. I highly recommend Eric.
- Mimi L. from San Jose, CA
Eric is an awesome tutor and explains things clearly. I met with him based on the recommendation of a classmate for a Programming I class taught in R and I can already tell he will be a great asset for me in this class. Highly recommend!
- Amber F. from Washington, DC
Eric is a very knowledgeable individual in the space of R programming. Combining this with his patience and wanting to help you understand something before you move on; he is a fantastic teacher.
- Connor U. from Phoenix, AZ
Great foundational lesson in R, explained in simple terms. Eric was flexible with times and scheduling, very well prepared. I will be continuing to work with Eric throughout the semester.
- Paul F. from Durham, NC
Eric has been invaluable in teaching me not only R, but also statistics. He is patient and always willing to address questions in a precise and thorough manner. I appreciate him taking my learning as seriously as I do.
- Daniela F. from Silver Spring, MD
Eric went through same fairly basic fixes to my ggplot coding and data frame (tibble) structures that were confounding my efforts to create graphs. He took the time to find out my level of expertise to coding (newbie!) and reviewed my data structure and code prior to the session. Eric identified problems and walked through how to fix the data. He showed me useful tools to speed up and automate my work flow. Eric is very precise and well spoken - his instructions are very clear. He also helped my think through the next steps in my R journey. I would definitely use him again.
- Jim S. from Apex, NC
I learned how to create a function, folders and save work on RStudio along with other necessary coding instructions. He was able to teach me other means to run a code.
- Exeario B. from Chicago, IL
Very helpful, was able to help with what I needed assistance on with on a research project using R Studio. Booked another lesson with him to further discuss what we worked on last time.
- Michael K. from Arlington, TX
Except Eric makes the process faster! That great when you don?t have much time or money. Thanks Eric for all the help!
- Leonard G. from Loxahatchee, FL
What Eric taught me - was seek out professionals when you need help. I had a technical issue that I couldn?t resolve - getting an older version of R to work with tidyverse. Due to company policy and firewall structure, I couldn?t upgrade to a later version of R. For 3 weeks I struggled- ?Enter Eric - problem solved?. He got older version to work and I got my project completed.
- Leonard G. from Loxahatchee, FL
Eric is brilliant. He is patient, kind and flexible. He takes time to explain things and challenges me to think on my own. I'd highly recommend him for tutoring. He has a calming non-intimidating voice. Eric offers very clear and concise instruction.
- LISSA G. from Santa Fe, NM
Clear instructions, flexible tutor, and knowledgeable about R. Makes it really easy to learn coding online as Eric provides in depth explanations. Ensures that you come out with independent skills.
- Elizabeth A. from New Providence, NJ
Eric taught me how to develop chi-squared tables for multiple variables. I had unsuccessfully searched for a solution for this need in many platforms. Eric had shown me how to do it 30 minutes. He was very patient with me as I fumbled around with my code. I am a newbie and my experience with him encouraged me to soldier on. He is a great tutor!!
