Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Algebra tutors in Houston, TX
"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 have found that when a student understands a problem holistically they are better able to apply the knowledge to new challenges." ...

"Ever since, I've had the opportunity to help students in Math, English, Test Prep, and even getting organized! I love helping students in their academics as well as helping them find scholarships and the right college! Personally, my favorite subjects in high school included Algebra 2, Calculus AB, World History, and Spanish 3 Pre-Ap. These subjects really intrigued my mind and kept me thinking. Because I was taught in a variety of different schools (public & private) and because I myself have been tutored, I feel that I can better relate to those trying to improve their skills or trying to leap ahead. Practice, understanding, and ...

"Since the beginning of middle school, I've worked with students from sixth grade to college. I enjoy teaching math, but I am also experienced in SAT/ACT preparation, chemistry, biology, physics, mandarin Chinese, grammar, and writing. Practice is the key to excel in any subject, especially math and science. More importantly, academics require one to think logically and to enjoy the solving process.
In my free time, I am a part-time magician creating memorable entertainment for all ages and events."

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 realize that my ability to excel in an academic setting is a blessing, and I love to shared my gifts with others looking to succeed through tutoring." ...

" 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 first started tutoring as a volunteer for middle school students who were struggling in math. Over the years, I've worked with students on various subjects ranging from Spanish (my mother is from Mexico City) to history.
I've always enjoyed working with people, and I love being able to instill confidence and hope!
In my free time, I like to explore Houston and the globe! My next trip will hopefully be to South America in the Spring!."

"My goal in tutoring is to present the material in a creative way that engages the student. In my opinion, when it comes to mathematics, a student's biggest enemy is low self confidence. Once a student finds that he or she has the ability to solve a problem, they are much more receptive to the subject and can retain more information.."

"My tutoring career started in 2008 with a local community college; There I helped others learn the fundamentals of Computer Science, logic and software design. I also learned that I love tutoring. Since then I have had internships with a few professional software development firms: an experience which has taught me valuable lessons about the industry. In my spare time I tend to play sports, read, play video games and help my friends understand math a little better."
