Award-Winning ACT Math Tutors for Students in Austin, TX

...I learned to love helping people fundamentally understand material - the why and how, not just memorization. Teaching is an opportunity for me to continue to engage with the subjects I fell in love with when I was in school, and I hope to impart some of that passion on to any student I take on. I love teaching Mathematics and Physics, but I can be a resource for nearly all subjects up to a...

...cookie jars, comics, collector cards, and more, I've probably have or had a collection of sorts. Many things have even spilled over to my classroom, particularly PEZ dispensers. To sum it up, I believe one can have fun in whatever they are doing, even learning math. I like to tell people that there came a point in my life where I had to either grow up or teach, and I haven't regretted my decision since!

I'm an entering freshman at the University of Texas at Austin to study Computer Science. I''m here to help students grow and prepare for standardized tests like the ACT, AP exams and help out with STEM in general.

...well so that they can tackle any kind of problem relating to math. I try to make math more relatable and interesting so that students can fully grasp the concept behind algebra, calculus, etc rather then simply memorizing equations and plugging in numbers. In addition, I have taught intro Japanese to college students. I am fluent in Japanese, and I believe that I can provide students a valuable time of talking with a true Japanese...

...teaching classes, I tutored individual students and adults in English language arts, and led SAT prep and humanities study groups at the Princeton Review. I love teaching and tutoring and am passionate about what my father, a former university professor, calls "the world of ideas." In particular, I am interested in literature, poetry, and the mechanics of writing, as well as issues related to psychology, philosophy, economics, and history. My long-term career goals include bringing...

I believe that all students can learn to love the process of learning. As humans education never stops as long as we are breathing. Why shouldn't it be exciting and interesting? It is not reserved for a select few. Everyone should have the opportunity to believe in their best.

My goal is to help others grow through both work and knowledge, and when students succeed, I succeed.

...years, I came to Austin to pursue a PhD in Curriculum and Instruction at UT. Working with students on an individual basis is a wonderful opportunity for me to craft a personalized approach to subject matter and techniques. I especially enjoy working with students on their writing, whether personal essays or application statements that they have time to edit and revise, or on-demand writing tasks that appear on tests like the SAT or the AP...

...Psychology and Neuroscience courses. After graduating from Texas A&M, I began a graduate program in Neuroscience at the University of Texas at Austin. While in this program, I volunteered in several reverse-inclusion courses for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, which renewed my interest both in teaching and in working with individuals with special needs. I am excited to work with all students, particularly those with special needs (including G/T). Please contact me with any...

...law school, while I was getting my master's degree, I tutored a variety of high school subjects and the SAT and ACT. I enjoy tutoring immensely, and after nearly eight years of doing it, I have developed a repertoire of tricks that help my students learn more easily. I particularly enjoy tutoring high school math and physics, Spanish, and literature, but I have experience in most subjects. I know many, many words :-)... Almost all of...

...becoming increasingly confident and competent in whatever subject they wish to be tutored for. I strive to not only teach them the concepts and materials, but how to study more efficiently and develop conceptual capabilities that will benefit their academic career in the future. In the past, I have been a writing mentor at my high school and worked with children through a organization called Breakthrough Austin. I was also a leader for a summer...

...a natural choice to pursue an undergraduate major in biological sciences and I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2015. While I immensely enjoyed my time as an undergraduate student, I soon realized that there were other paths I had left undiscovered in my educational journey. Until the age of nine, I was raised in Nepal, a beautiful country but one fueled by political unrest and uncertainty. I always had an interest in global...

...toward this STEM career, I am passionate about my studies in the sciences, particularly those in math and chemistry. Working through my classes I have come to appreciate the value of accountability and confidence I have received from my experience with tutoring services, and I aim to instill those values in my students. Outside of the classroom I enjoy physical activities such as tennis and rock climbing, or playing board games like The Settlers of...

My philosophy is to be patient and help the student become an independent learner (to tutor myself out of a job!). I especially enjoy helping students develop self-confidence through working through as much of the material as they can on their own, providing hints when they need them.

...and also students wanting to enter college, but lacking basic skills. The ability to help such students give me tremendous satisfaction. I have found that most students have a willingness to do well, but lack the understanding as to how to pursue their goals. It is only after winning over these students, and in many cases, even going out of the way to help them, that they are really able to succeed.... First, understand the level...

...in my public library in New Jersey. I ran the class for two years and enjoyed teaching my students the essentials needed for these two tests. As the head teacher I had a lot of responsibilities such as making mock tests, making sure every student understood all the content, Organizing each class day every week, and getting assistant teachers to help me out for free. I know that I am a good teacher because every...

I recently graduated from college with a degree in biology with an emphasis in ecology and evolution. I love to spend time outdoors, play ultimate frisbee and pretend I'm a mad scientist when I do genetics problems.

...my love of education but also challenged me to become a self-taught learner. Using what I learned from AP exam preparation allowed me to become a National Merit Finalist, two-time National AP Scholar, and valedictorian of my graduating class of over 600 students. While my favorite subjects to tutor are high school-level and engineering calculus, I am happy to tutor in a range of subjects, including all-around ACT preparation, high school and college math, chemistry,...

...US to get my doctorate. However, to this day, they say that I not only helped them to learn, I inspired them. After school play dates at our house always started with them doing their homework after a nutritious snack. This always surprised the playmates' parents, they could not believe that the homework was finished or at least halfway done when they came to pick up their children. I helped them to learn the material...

...literally jumped at the opportunity to finally be able to share my knowledge. Throughout the semester, I enjoyed preparing for the sessions just as much as I enjoyed working with her. Because I have been through such similar experiences and struggles with the course, I was able to connect with her on a deeper level. I gave her mini-lectures on subject material she was confused on, worked through her homework with her, and assisted her...
