Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT English tutors in Houston, TX
"I enjoy tutoring a wide variety of subjects, but I particularly like reading and writing. I have had experience with private tutoring in several math subjects and have previously taught a chemistry class at a summer enrichment program in my hometown. My past experience has been primarily with middle school and high school aged students, but having younger siblings has equipped me with the skills to relate to students at any age. The style I use when approaching tutoring is to approach problems from several different angles."

" I tutor a wide variety of subjects, but I especially love to prepare students for standardized testing and college entrance exams. I've learned that success on standardized tests depends on the strategy with which the student approaches the test. I have taken many standardized tests on my way to becoming a National Advanced Placement Scholar and National Merit Scholar; I love to share my successful test-taking strategies with other students. I find that these strategies give students the confidence to succeed."

" I've been assisting others with Math and Latin from my sophomore year in high school, and have since been very active. I strive to be more than a simple talking textbook, and work patiently and personally with my students to come to a deeper understanding and appreciation of their subject matter.

"I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I pursued a degree in sound engineering and recording technology with an emphasis in Pre-Med and Pre-Law. I plan on attending an institution where I can achieve a medical doctorate simultaneously with a degree in jurisdictional prudence.
Five years at the UT has taught me how to take in complicated information, process it and teach it to fellow students. In a more professional atmosphere, I have helped students achieve their academic goals through tutoring on a high school level."

"in History (concentration in European History), I spent two years doing a Post-Bacc in Biology at the University of Houston. However, I think that my experience in two vastly different fields is a positive because it makes me better able to tutor a wide variety of subjects. In my free time, I love reading, cooking (I’m currently working on the perfect chocolate soufflé), yoga, and traveling (Costa Rica and Amsterdam are the plan for this summer). I have been tutoring since 2002 and my experience encompasses a wide range of clients, from middle-school students to college students. In addition to tutoring subjects ranging from ...

"While I have excelled throughout my academic career, I myself have struggled with test anxiety and with "keeping up" in more advanced classes. I know what it is to work HARD for a grade! I believe this makes me a better tutor, as I can truly empathize with my clients and their struggles. I believe many students lack confidence in their own abilities and give up discouraged if they don't "get it" as quickly as their peers. I enjoy helping clients realize their own abilities and talents and seeing their confidence levels rise.."
