ABOUT ME

My name is Erik Dunham.  I am currently a High School Mathematics teacher at Cairo American College, located in Maadi, Cairo, Egypt.  

​

I have been teaching for ten years.  I earned my B.A degree from Lewis and Clark College in Portland, OR in Mathematics.  From there I started out as a primary school para-educator for a special education class, and also worked as a one-on-one with special ed students at summer programs.  After that I went to grad school to earn an Macc (Master's Degree in Accounting) from the University of St. Louis-Missouri.  From there I had planned on entering the financial sector, but an opportunity to teach high school mathematics came up and I took it.  I moved to Qingdao, China and never looked back.  

​

While in China I taught all levels of high school mathematics, including AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB, and AP Calculus BC.  I also taught AP Macroeconomic and AP Microeconomics.  From China I moved to Cairo where I am currently teaching high school mathematics.

​

In addition to teaching I am passionate about basketball, arts, and theatre.  For three year I helped run the Maadi Community Theater where I was a director, stage manager, sound designer, and also an actor.  I am also the currently head coach for the CAC Varsity Girls basketball program.
