Award-Winning Geometry Tutors in Austin, TX

...I was a junior and senior as part of National Honor Society. My strong academic subject areas are math, particularly calculus, trigonometry, and algebra; although I do tutor up to all high school levels of math, computer science programming in Java, Python, or C, electrical engineering topics like circuitry or programming, and mechanical physics. I really enjoy helping other people out because my motto is "ancora imparo," or "I am always learning." So if I...

...tutoring approach because everyone is unique. My number one priority with every student is to understand their individual academic and learning needs and to tailor my approach to maximize their understanding and retention of the material. Through this, I work to ensure every session has the right balance of challenge, rewarding accomplishment, and growth for the student. Ultimately, my goal is for the student to leave our time together with the satisfaction that comes from...

What's up! I am a recent graduate of WashU with a major in Biology with plans of applying to medical school. I am an expert in mathematics and the natural sciences, and love helping students discover these subjects. I am cool, down to earth, and funny, and enjoy making connections with students.

...undergraduate years. I understand that books can be hard to decipher quite often due to the lack of tone and author's preconceived notions about the student's background. Therefore, when I tutor I build the framework from the ground up and depend a lot on visual aids (diagrams and charts) rather than formulas and numbers. I believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question and I address each question as many times as...

...in general, and will hopefully soon be pursing a graduate degree in Political Science. I have a large amount of experience tutoring students in late elementary through high school in one-on-one settings. My students have ranged from highly motivated individuals wanting to go from a B+ to an A to students having difficulty passing a tough class, and I strive to match my style and depth of instruction with the knowledge level of the student....

...Community Award. I attended an early college high school program (the Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science) and volunteered in a local middle school, 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...

...deals with high school level math and science and standardized testing. All the time I see Math and Science get kind of a bad reputation and its a shame because I really have a passion for these subjects. In my experience, it isn't that these subjects are inherently more difficult but rather they're often taught in a very cookie cutter, 'memorize this' format. And while this can work for some I believe a student must...

...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 student already knows and what his or her strengths...

...am now on my second). I have always valued education but at times saw that teaching methods did not adapt appropriately to the student. There is more than one way to learn material. Because of that I hope to spend some time with students, helping them get the test scores that will allow them to get into their dream school. Throughout my high school and college career I gained extensive experience in tutoring members of...

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.

...fell in love with teaching others and decided to spend a year teaching English in China after graduation. It was the best decision I've ever made and I learned so much, about myself and about teaching. It was also exciting to travel and see the world. Since I've returned, I have been teaching and tutoring in the Austin area. While I have tutored a wide range of subjects including English, Chemistry, Physics, Social Studies, French,...

...in conventionally challenging courses like math, science, and writing. I tutor college-level chemistry through Organic II, college-level physics through Electricity & Magnetism, and any and all math classes from middle-school math through college-level calculus. In my free time, I find myself exploring Austin, swimming at the green belt, learning to play guitar, and hanging with my friends. I always enjoy meeting new people and look forward to helping students build confidence in their studies.

...lot of time in my physics sessions sliding, spinning, dropping, rolling, skidding, pushing and pulling themselves, non-breakable objects or even the occasional family member. Don't worry, I leave the family pets out of it! Although those of you online may see my cat in a few demonstrations. My tutoring style looks more like a coach and less like a teacher. I believe that students must be guided towards reflecting on their own learning, communicating their...

My best subjects are most maths (Algebra, Geometry, Statistics) and sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Ecology, Earth Science, Environmental Science). I have also been on the receiving end of tutoring, so I will try to make the process as stress-free as possible.

...a level and an approach that works for each individual. I have several years' experience as an independent math and test prep tutor, working with students at a variety of levels and ages, including adults. For math students, I work to engender a real understanding of the underlying concepts, rather than just memorization. Under test pressure you may forget what you memorize, but you won't forget what you understand. I have an advanced degree in...

I am a Masters in Pharmaceutical Sciences Graduate from Campbell University, NC and have over 10 years of experience in tutoring Mathematics to middle school, high school, undergraduate and graduate students.

After attending UT-Austin where I worked with the women's basketball team, I have been teaching and coaching for over 25 years. I love teaching English and Math and coaching basketball and track! I was in charge of a credit recovery program for the past thirteen years, so I understand the concept of "everyone can learn." Students all have different abilities. The trick is finding each student's strengths and building success from there!

...generation of scientists and engineers. After a successful four years as an educator I transitioned into a more direct application of my engineering education and I am currently in the engineering industry. Although I enjoy the engineering industry, I still yearn to teach, and I am excited to be tutoring with Varsity Tutors! I was engaged in the revolutionary UTeachEngineering Program at The University of Texas at Austin. During this time I studied and implemented...

...in classrooms around Austin, and was a student teacher in a 7th grade mathematics classroom. I truly love learning new things. The reason I pursued a teaching certificate was so that I could help others find a passion for learning as well! Additionally, the one-on-one environment of tutoring allows a student to learn in a way that best suites them. So, I am excited for more opportunities to tutor students in a wide range of...

...published papers in the field of epigenetics since my freshmen year of college. Even though I consider myself to have an expertise in languages, I decided to teach areas in the field of natural sciences because those are the subjects that I am most passionate about. I was born in Taiwan; however, even before I learned how to speak, I moved to the States. Hence, my first language was English. In third grade, my parents...
