Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Cedar Park, TX

I love tutoring and helping students! I believe everyone is capable of learning with the right type of instruction. I have had my fair share of disappointments, but with the right kind of help, I have overcome many struggles. I believe learning doesn't happen in a day. But we should struggle to learn a little every day.

..."Don't make that mistake!". The teacher tries to hear what the student wants and then figures what to work on in order to get there. I've been both a student and teacher of guitar, and I try to take that teaching style into my tutoring. I never start by explaining material or by "simplifying" it (because that usually means repeating it again and again!) but by listening to the student and finding out exactly the...

...growth mindset theory of education, encouraging students to learn and grow from their mistakes rather than becoming discouraged and giving up. When I was in high school, I struggled a lot with math, and this caused me to view myself as a failure. Working with my own tutors and teachers helped me realize that I am capable of overcoming difficulties through perseverance, and that's a skill that I want to pass on to the students...

I am an undergrad student looking to help other students of any level to further their understanding of (mainly) writing and English topics. I'm also an avid Ultimate Frisbee player and am currently enjoying the new Fire Emblem game on the Switch.

I'm an experienced teacher and tutor with a Bachelors in English from the University of Alabama and a Masters in Literature and the Humanities from St. Edward's University, looking to help my students share in my love of learning!... The answer is out there. I really do think that, no matter what the problem is, a solution can be found if we all work hard enough!... Discuss what subjects or concepts the student is struggling with, and what study methods just haven't worked for them in the past. That way, we can tackle the problem from a new angle and with a fresh approach!

...variety of math and science subjects. I always strive to set goals with the student and plan a path to meet those goals. Additionally, I always encourage students, especially young children, to be inquisitive and develop an interest in science. There is nothing more rewarding than watching a student have an "ah-ha" moment when the material makes sense to them. In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering with a no-kill animal rescue in Houston and...

...psychology, as well as completed the prerequisites for medical school. I served as a residential advisor for two years and have experience tutoring and counseling students in that capacity. I believe taking the time to listen to and understand others is the best way to find out how to help them. I've always appreciated this in my teachers and mentors and have tried to carry it forward in my interactions with others.... I would want to see how the student feels they learn best, what kinds of teaching strategies have worked for them before, and how they teach themselves. I would also ask them to describe where they feel they are having trouble with the subject at hand. I want to understand from their point of view where the difficulty is.

...My tutoring philosophy partially comes from what worked with me, but it also from my experience working with students. I worked in a high school as an interventionist working with small groups of students. Although, they were considered to be at the same level that did not necessarily mean that my lesson plan would work for everyone in that group. I also tutored these same students and others after school and that was often where...

...and have continued to do so since. I also served as a teaching assistant for a sophomore mechanical engineering class my senior year. The above experiences have prepared me to successfully help students grasp math and science concepts at all levels, from high school freshman Algebra I through to advanced, upper division undergraduate engineering courses. Beyond working with students on STEM subjects, I also work with students in standardized test prep (ACT, SAT, AP Exams,...

...attend graduate school after St. Edwards, in what i wish to be the D.C. area to further my international studies. I am very passionate about education because I do wholeheartedly believe that education plays the most vital role in any persons life. Education is really the key to anything for anyone but its a matter of allocating the right resources. Throughout all of my education languages and history were my strongest subjects. Already knowing English...
