Mentor & Math Tutor, Dr. Eva Zabric
Eva earned both her MS and PhD in Mathematics from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1992. Since then, she has held teaching positions at many colleges and universities across the country, with her last 18 years spent as an instructor at SJSU. Past courses she has taught include: algebra, trigonometry, finite mathematics, pre-calculus, calculus, differential equations, discrete mathematics, statistics, and linear algebra.
Eva is very devoted to expanding opportunities in math for all young learners, and as a graduate student she participated in the Upward Bound program for minority high school students at the University of Illinois at Chicago. At SJSU she also led workshops for the Expanding Your Horizons conference, a yearly event with the goal of attracting more elementary school girls to careers in mathematics and science, and volunteered for yearly math competitions for early enthusiasts.
In her almost 30 years of experience teaching and offering one on one help and guidance to her students, Eva has developed a great deal of insight into the different ways that students think. As a result, she offers a wide range of step-by-step approaches to problem solving, catered to the individual learning style. She has also accumulated a career’s worth of helpful study and practice materials from her time as a teacher, which she is happy to share with her students now.
In addition to math and teaching, Eva likes to run, hike, rock-climb, read, and volunteer her time in a local community garden.
