Award-Winning ACT Writing Tutors serving Cedar Park, TX

I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is...

I am a third year student at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science. I have 3 months of online tutoring experience, tutoring both computer science and chemistry. I like the students I tutor to have a hands on approach to learning. The easiest and most fun way to learn is to do. I love watching students use what they've learned to solve real problems.

...philosophy, neuroscience, 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.

...from accounting essays to ESOL student practice. In science, I am most experienced at tutoring genetics and psychology, but my favorite subject by far is neuroscience. In English, I am most experienced at reading comprehension and essay writing. I also have considerable experience tutoring general study skills and organization for academic success. I believe strongly in the idea of self-guided discovery, where I guide my students through the process of figuring it out for themselves.

...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 questions you may have, and I look forward to working with you and/or your child!... I find that...

...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 tutor. Everyone makes mistakes and has struggles, but the important thing is that you can move past those...

...students that are self motivated and want to have a tutor, no matter their current skill level in a class. Having a great teacher or tutor won't help if the student does not want to learn and put in the work. However, I truly believe any student can not just succeed, but excel, if they work hard and have the right support system. Aside from tutoring, I love to cook and play Ultimate Frisbee. I...

...and anything Computer Science/Technology related. I'm qualified to tutor in various academic subjects as well as ACT prep. But based on my past software engineering internship experiences at Apple and Microsoft, I am most confident in tutoring Computer Science topics ranging from specific coding languages to data structures, algorithms and coding projects. Outside of academia, I enjoy working out and staying fit, playing basketball, rock climbing and trying out new places to eat around Austin.

...the Python programming language. In the past I have worked with college students struggling in early mathematics courses such as trigonometry, algebra and elementary statistics. While at my university I also worked with adult students pursuing a GED. Ultimately, mathematics is not about memorizing formulas but about the logical process of arriving at a conclusion. Ideally, my job will consist of reminding the student of the tools at their disposal and they will make the leap...

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.

...love for math and the sciences, I hope to influence my students to adopt this same passion for learning so that they are motivated to continue learning new material during their high school and college years. I have been tutoring for years and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience I have gained and the friendships I have made with other students. My biggest priority is meeting the educational needs of my students in any way possible,...

...a part of the Health Science Scholars Honors program at the University of Texas at Austin. I have experience tutoring high school and middle school students for the past couple of years in a variety of subjects and my favorite ones include sciences such as biology and chemistry, as well as ACT/SAT/PSAT test prep. I firmly believe in the value of good education and hope to inspire that same positivity in others.

...Philosophy, while also pursuing pre-medical studies. In NYC, I gained a wide variety of teaching and tutoring experiences in classrooms, with private clients, and via community service work for non-profit organizations. Currently, I work at a middle school in Chicago teaching middle school math, as well as tutor for city clients. I am most passionate about math, but am comfortable working with students of all ages K-12 (and beyond!) in subjects including chemistry, physics, Spanish,...

...me, language is the key to understanding the world, but more than that, it has allowed me to understand the diversity of people and thought. Language is an amazing and unique tool that has allowed all of us to communicate in some way or another, and it was this passion for language that drove my education. I began by double majoring in anthropology and French at the University of New Mexico, and three short years...

...like the student is the only one learning, the tutor learns a great deal, as well. For instance, with each student I take on, I gain valuable experience that I can then use with another student. In addition, I love being able to assist a student in reaching their goals, be that a higher grade in a class, a deeper understanding of a specific topic, etc. I am a native speaker of Spanish- it was...

...I graduated, I spent a year and a half working as an after-school site director at the YMCA while becoming a Texas certified English teacher. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, especially as it relates to literature (reading and dissecting, as well as creative writing). In my experience, I often see the most success (and excitement for learning) in my students with the games and various fun...

...years later, I caught the travel bug and decided that I wanted to travel and teach English, so I obtained my TESL Certification from Oxford Seminars at the University of St. Edwards in Austin, Texas and moved to Taiwan where I began my ESL teaching career, where I taught ages 7 to 22 years old. During my time in Taiwan, I was awarded a scholarship for a 1-year Intensive Mandarin course. In addition to Taiwan,...

...could perform well if I just put in the work. When I reached college and started experiencing health issues which impacted my attention span, organizational skills, and study habits, I was forced to adapt. With much help from various academic coaches, I discovered novel ways to learn that suited my new needs. I was able to graduate from Trinity University with a Neuroscience Degree, and recently received a certificate in Youth and Young Adult Ministry...

...Archaeology as my field of choice. I have always had a great love for history and am currently trying to turn that passion into a career. While studying at UT Austin, I had the opportunity to tutor and work with children as part of a summer program at the University of Texas of the Permian Basin. Recently, I have been working for Berkeley2 Academy as a tutor and preparatory class instructor for subjects ranging from...

...If you take a look at my interest and hobbies, you can see that my curious drive is not limited to my academics - far from it! I am fascinated with the idea of being a Renaissance Man - a polymath basically - so I am always pushing myself to learn new things and try adventurous experiences. This might mean spending hours learning how to build a portable solar-powered generator or going hitchhiking in central...
