Our Testimonials
Michael W. - Former Student
" Eric is a natural educator, understanding that it is more important to repsect the students, than to simply teach the topic at hand. Imploring humor and a positive attitude, Eric was able to reach students who never before excelled in a given subject, walking them through every step until they succeeded. "
Nate R. - Former Student
" Eric is a dynamic, engaging and personable educator with a strong command of mathematics. He has a remarkable talent for connecting with others and uses this ability to mentor his students while simultaneously making classroom learning more enjoyable (by no means an easy feat). I recommend Eric highly and without hesitation. "
Cara K. - Former Student
" Mr. Sigman was a great high school math teacher. Math was a tough subject for me, but he helped me overcome my obstacles and learn math more effectively. "
