Award-Winning MCAT Tutors in Austin, TX

...Genetics. Since graduation, I have worked in the biotech industry, lectured in Microbiology and am currently doing research on vaccine development. I enjoy one on one teaching, and just discussing science in general. It's always a thrill when the light goes on for someone. I am a follower of all fields of science and technology, and try to incorporate new ideas into my work at all times. In my spare time, I build computers, read...

...with 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....

...am a great tutor because I have the ability to reach students of various ages and various communication styles. I am a firm believer that learning various subjects in depth makes a person more well rounded and they becomes a more worldly person when they grow up. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions, and I hope you will consider me as you try to find the right fit for your...

...share my knowledge with someone else. I have a strong passion for math and science, which is contagious. When I learn something new and cool, I just have to share it! I love machines, big and small. How they work. Their history. How they could be improved. I've always loved space-travel, and I had the privilege of working for NASA, designing the cooling system for the next-generation of Mars rover cameras. For Cummins, the largest...

...have been informally tutoring peers and my younger siblings from a young age, and continue to do so today. In high school, I was recognized as a National Merit Finalist by the College Board for my PSAT and SAT scores. I took nine different AP exams (World History, US History, European History, Physics B, English Lit, English Comp, Biology, Psychology, and Statistics) and thus became very familiar with how those tests work, as well as...

...level students hoping to matriculate to dentistry school. While in graduate school I worked as a community college tutor in Biology, General Chemistry, Mathematics (up to Pre-Calculus), Microbiology, Nutrition, and Anatomy and Physiology. I also worked with middle school students, serving as a Scientist-In-the-Classroom teaching partner for two years. Most recently I have served as a grader for AP Biology and as a content specialist for the Texas STAAR examination. I am more than happy...

...engineer who's starting his own business in Austin, TX, in educational software and games. When I'm not developing products, I like to help educate others directly, through training sessions and tutoring. If you'd like help with mathematics or English, especially for standardized tests, then I definitely can help you. I have experience directly teaching undergraduates in math and engineering, as well as years of experience training adults in a range of technical subjects.... Everyone can learn. No matter where you're starting out, it's possible to work through challenging topics to increase your knowledge, skills, and understanding. It takes motivation, thinking, and practice to get there.

...help them love to learn! I am a psychotherapist with a Master's degree in Counseling from Texas State University. In my work with teen and adult counseling clients, I teach them that knowing yourself is the best way to get your needs and wants met. This is very similar to how I approach teaching in that knowing yourself is paramount. A student does not "need the answer," they need to know how to find the...

...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 questions you may have, and I look forward to working with you and/or your child!... I find that having a student explain a topic to me (or walk me through a similar problem) works really well to make sure that a student actually understands the topic. I have also learned to ask questions such as "does that make sense to you?" TWICE, since oftentimes a student will answer the first time without really thinking the question through.

...acquisition and learning. Outside the classroom I am very active and adventurous. I like to dance, play sand volleyball and softball, kayak and enjoy nature. I love yoga, camping and hiking too, so I often take friends to explore the beautiful hill-country wilderness sites in and around Austin. I love music and international travel, but when I'm not traveling to a new country and exploring new cultures or languages I like to do that right...
