About Us

Thank you for your interest in Comstock Educational Services. I've developed my business model and accompanying teaching methodology based upon my own experiences as a Davidson Young Scholar and a profoundly gifted learner. This approach is a culmination of what I would have liked to have available to me when I was growing up.

Like many Davidson young scholars, I craved deep intellectual engagement in a wide variety of subjects. College-level instruction was hard to come by. My parents had to knock on professors' doors and we were turned down many times. Occasionally, a professor would understand and invite us to their lectures, but these opportunities were few and far between.

Even finding online courses advanced enough was a challenge. Most, if not all, online vendors of enrichment courses had age limits for their courses that matched the age ranges of similar courses for high school and college students.

The busy work was also an issue. Having to work 30-45 problems, when I would usually master the concept after just 5 problems, was another source of discouragement. Moreover, when homework problems were inevitably missed, the grade was final. It would have been more productive to have been given the opportunity to correct what was missed in order to learn.

Many courses require payment in full for the whole semester. There were many times that I started a course just to find out that it covered material at the beginning that I already knew. I wished that I could only attend the last third of the class to be exposed to new material. Other times, I'd start the class to discover that the format of the class was not for me. In each case, my parents had already paid for the whole semester incurring great and, I feel, unnecessary losses.

All of these issues needlessly hinder gifted learners from accessing the enrichment that they so desire. I hope to remedy all of this in my business model and teaching methodology.

As far as my background, I am currently a 4th year PhD candidate in aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech, and I earned my Master's degree in AE from Georgia Tech in 2024. I am an Hispanic Scholarship Fund Scholar, a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow, a Goizueta Foundation Fellow, and a lifetime member of Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honor society.

It is my sincere hope that Comstock Educational Services is able to provide the best educational opportunity for your student so that they may feel enriched and satisfied in their quest for deep knowledge.

What our parents say



Eric Comstock’s courses are truly exceptional. My 11 year old son took both Orbital Mechanics I and II with Eric and is clamoring for more. His classes are engaging, interactive, and intellectually rich, providing students with ample opportunities to ask questions, explore ideas deeply, and truly understand the subject matter. Unlike many instructors who limit the pace of learning, Eric provides an uncapped learning experience, making him an ideal teacher for gifted students who crave depth and challenge.

One of Eric’s greatest strengths is his kind and encouraging teaching style. He fosters an environment where students feel comfortable taking intellectual risks. Even when a student answers incorrectly, he guides them toward a deeper understanding rather than simply providing the right answer. His use of Python-based visualizations is particularly effective—he masterfully creates informative graphics that clarify difficult orbital mechanics concepts, making abstract ideas tangible.

Another standout aspect is his ability to break down complex material without compromising its rigor. He doesn’t assume prior knowledge but instead ensures that students build a strong mathematical foundation alongside the physics of spaceflight. If an advanced concept requires calculus, he seamlessly integrates it into the curriculum, reinforcing key ideas rather than leaving students to struggle on their own.

Beyond his teaching, Eric genuinely cares about his students. He makes himself available outside of class, responding remarkably quickly to questions and offering additional guidance. His dedication and enthusiasm make his courses an incredible experience, not just for the depth of knowledge they provide but also for the love of learning they inspire.

For any gifted student looking for an unparalleled deep dive into aerospace engineering and orbital mechanics, I cannot recommend Eric’s courses highly enough. His passion, expertise, and ability to connect with students make him truly one of a kind.

Our daughter had the opportunity to take both Orbital Mechanics I and Orbital Mechanics II courses with Eric Comstock, and it has been one of the most enriching learning experiences she’s had. Eric is an exceptional mentor for young students. He is patient and deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in nurturing curiosity among bright young children.

He brings remarkable organization to his teaching. Both courses are thoughtfully structured, with lessons that build naturally week over week and assignments that reinforce concepts in a very intentional way. The material covers a remarkable breadth, from basics in physics, vectors, finite difference methods, calculus, orbital mechanics fundamentals all the way to satellite navigation and interplanetary trajectories. Despite all that Eric makes even the most complex topics approachable and engaging. These courses do take effort and the more you give into them the more you will gain out of them.

Most importantly, the kids have fun learning with him. He brings a lot of enthusiasm for aerospace and problem-solving, and that motivates students to think deeply and creatively. The final project for Orbital Mechanics II was a lot of fun as well. The goal was to design a Python model to find optimal satellite constellations to provide GPS coverage across the Earth and it was a highlight for our daughter. It brought together all the concepts covered over the courses, combined technical rigor with imagination and gave our daughter a sense of real accomplishment after she finished it.

Eric is a rare combination of a brilliant engineer and a gifted teacher. We are incredibly grateful for the time and care he devotes to mentoring young learners and would enthusiastically recommend his classes to any student who enjoys math, science, or just exploring how the universe works. We greatly appreciate the time he invests in teaching these courses and is a great role model for young enthusiastic kids.

My already heavily tasked son was a bit concerned about having this Orbital Mechanics Online Class with Eric Comstock. We were concerned too, since we did not know what to expect. Well, the class was definitely unlike anything my son had taken. The first couple of weeks were really a challenge since my son has not yet taken Calculus and is in the middle of a Pre-Calculus class.

Mr. Comstock did a great job of presenting the challenging material and giving opportunities for feedback and interaction. Within a couple of weeks my son went from sitting quietly, not interacting, and trying to research answers on his own, to coming out of his shell and actually interacting with Mr. Comstock. As a result of this, he has gained a lot of confidence in his math abilities. Mr. Comstock taught him how to apply Calculus to the various lessons that he had. This is really helping us to better plan our son's classes next year when he becomes a [high school] freshman. These short online courses, which last only a few weeks, can give a lifetime of momentum. We listen in sometimes, especially early in the process, and we can appreciate the kind, understanding way Mr. Comstock interacts with his students.

Like I said, this has become a large step in the long path that our son has to take in to becoming a functional adult who is able to handle these highly intellectual pursuits. We had trouble making time for this class, which was found by an engineer family member and recommended to us, but we are seeing results, and we can truly say it has been worth the investment. Thank you, Mr. Comstock.

For the last 6 months, Eric has been teaching my 14 year old son a weekly enrichment class on aerospace engineering, and my son has loved every minute of it. Eric taught him the Python coding skills as well as the math and physics he needed to compute the path of a space shuttle launch and return. Eric was able to explain advanced topics in a way that my son found very accessible and he was always great with answering questions. My son's comments about the lessons are "I learn a lot and they are really fun." He also regularly finds applications for what Eric taught him in other academic areas, such as math class and Mathletes competitions. Working with Eric is definitely a highlight of my son's week and has solidified his ambition to study aerospace engineering in college.
