Award-Winning Biology Tutors in San Marcos, TX

...where I worked with struggling students one-on-one. I then transferred to Texas A&M University, where I earned a B.S. in Psychology (with a minor in Neuroscience) in 2013. During college, I tutored several 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...

...Biology and 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.

...I was born in Louisiana and moved to Austin, TX in 2000. I enjoy working out, running, reading, movies, music, and concerts. My tutoring style focuses on identifying a student's strengths and weaknesses and explaining problems that cater to student's learning style. I strive to create a fun, encouraging and collaborative environment so that students feel comfortable tackling material, asking questions, and identifying goals and challenges. I am excited to help students and families achieve...

...program for 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...

...no one needs the advice, "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...

...mastered it. I was really impressed by the difference his patience made and I love tutoring because it helps me do that for other people. I am currently a student at Rice University, majoring in Cognitive Sciences, and I plan on attending medical school afterwards. Between my major and pre-med track, my coursework varies from philosophy to statistics to linguistics to biochemistry and more! My own personal interests vary greatly and so do the subjects...

...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 also work as an emergency room medical scribe,...

...what an individual's most effective learning style is. Ideally, this means that each student would come to me and tell me exactly what works for them and what doesn't. However, many students don't know exactly what works best for them, and may not even be aware that they prefer one teaching style over another. That is where listening and being patient become very important aspects of my job, and is why one on one time...

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!...

I am a student at University of Texas at Austin studying Health and Society. I enjoy learning the natural sciences and I'm looking forward to being able to work with you.

...deeply knowledgeable subject matter expert in a range of scientific disciplines. I can also help you prepare for standardized tests by reviewing content and helping you implement effective test taking strategies. You may also want to work on developing broader academic skills in addition to mastering the subject matter at hand.

I am currently a Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin. I am Pre-med and also hoping to receive my teaching certificate for composite science in the fall. Outside of academia, I enjoy rock-climbing, hiking, and music. I love taking my pup on adventures throughout the Austin area and just being outside in general.

...of the student. This is so important because it establishes an environment where both the student and the tutor feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings about the material. In a tutoring session, a student should feel open to ask questions and express concerns. Outside of academics, I enjoy sports, specifically triathlon. I competed on UT's club triathlon team for four years, and I absolutely enjoyed it. I also play tennis when the weather cooperates....

...the course and with your degree and listen to how much you know about the subject. I then offer advice on how to study for the course you are in, work through various problems with you to make sure you understand the concepts, and i guide you to the right answer with breaking down tough concepts to be more understanding through real life examples, my own experiences, and jokes. My overall philosophy when it comes...

...students interests, and goals. My teaching philosophy also includes, presenting a subject or concept in different ways to help reinforce the student's understanding. I also give amazing tips/life hacks on how to get the most out of studying and improve memory. Knowing that people love to hear how smart they are, I never fail to let my tutees know, while objectively letting them know ways they need to improve. positive reinforcement / affirmation - it...

I am here to help.

...medical school in 2019, but before then I plan on helping students exceed their goals in the classroom or on standardized tests like the MCAT, ACT, or SAT. I scored in the top 1% on the MCAT, ACT and SAT and I can teach you valuable techniques to achieve your testing goals. I'm also very familiar with high school and college-level science and math classes. Outside of academics, I enjoy playing basketball, volleyball, golf, and...

...passion for improving the lives of students craving success. My goal of tutoring is to help students overcome academic challenges and lead them to autonomous or independent learning. It is a special kind of teaching that is different from the teaching performed by teachers, friends, and parents. My personal mission for every student is to discover new techniques, build confidence, and create a road to success. Together, we can build that road.
