My name is Eric Hayes, and I am an experienced educator with 16 years of teaching in diverse international settings, including the U.S., Brazil, and Europe. I hold a Bachelor of Arts from Angelo State University and a Master’s Degree from Buffalo State. Additionally, I am certified in Mathematics (Grades 6-9), Social Studies/History (Grades 6-12), and Special Education (6-12). What I enjoy most about my work is building meaningful connections with students, helping them overcome academic challenges, and fostering their confidence and independence. Whether it’s through personalized interventions, collaborative classroom strategies, or one-on-one academic support, I take pride in tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of every learner.
