Award-Winning Microbiology Tutors serving San Marcos, TX

I have spent numerous summers counseling children from ages 7-16 (both male and female) and am extremely comfortable talking to and relating to this age group. I am a great tutor because I use analogy, mnemonics, and memorization tricks. I find the easiest way to reach an understanding that will "stick" in a student's brain is in terms of something they are already passionate about.

...independence in their own abilities so that they will be better served in the entirety of their academic careers, not just with the subject in which I am tutoring. I work hard with each student to help not only myself but help them assess their strengths and weaknesses for each subject. My approach is not "one size fits all." Instead, I listen carefully to each student and work with them on reviewing and completing their...

"When one teaches, two learn" As a science student, I am an eternal learner. The field changes every day and it requires an eager and open mindset. It is my passion to understand it and help others do the same.

...complex formulas and equations, and with little in common with what we see and do everyday. I'm here to tell you that doesn't have to be the case! Almost everything can be broken down into small pieces and understood in a simple, intuitive way. Even mathematics, which doesn't always seem to translate to the real world, can be used to describe things such as how fast cars move, what profit a company can make from...

...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 history and science fiction...

I am currently attending the University of Texas at Austin, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Infectious diseases. My goal is to help people better understand basic biology and perhaps attend medical school in the near future.

...Trinity University with a BS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, I have an in-depth knowledge and love for sciences. I also recently took the DAT, the dental admissions test, which focuses on math, reading, biology, and chemistry, which continued to keep my brain focused in the sciences after graduation. Although my love for learning and sciences is strong does not mean these subjects come easily to me. I work and study extremely hard to meet...

...improve and understand concepts better, I will gladly use creative problem solving to find a way to relate a concept in terms the student will grasp. I have completed research projects involving wildlife and antibiotic resistance and even giving concrete the properties of steel. I served as a peer mentor to the LSU College of Science freshmen and led weekly seminars on study skills, time management, scheduling, and preparing and presenting multimedia projects.... I rely heavily...

...Bachelors and Masters Degrees in Chemistry as well as a 14 year career as a Research Scientist at a R & D company. As a stay at home parent, I am always looking for opportunities to tutor and stretch my mind and help students do the same! Because of my career as a scientist, I focus on the importance of understanding fundamental concepts, not just studying to take and pass a test. My goal is...

...tutor with years of experience. I provide support and guidance for students in many subjects and specialize in test preparation, teaching study skills, and ensuring a deep understanding of all material. My background includes a Graduate Degree in Environmental and Resource Economics with honors, and a Bachelor of Arts in Economics, with honors. I have tutored students at all levels of mathematics, prepared students for high school and college, and taught graduate level econometrics and...

I am here to help.

...and pre-cal. I am a part of the Imperial Scientific Association (ISA), a group of NASA certified educators. During the week I am assisting with clinical research. Weekends will be an ideal time to meet. My tutoring style is best described as unwavering patience. I explain until there is understanding. I've spent years teaching my younger sister the ropes in science and math. I have the patience to explain the big fundamentals from start to...

...and college, ranging from answering simple homework or study questions to having weekly regular sessions. I tutor a broad range of subjects, including math (through calculus level), sciences (general life sciences, chemistry (general, organic, physical), biology (including microbiology), biochemistry, anatomy and physiology), ACT test prep (all subjects), and PCAT test prep. While I enjoy helping students in all areas, my favorite subjects to tutor are math and chemistry, as there's so much room for growth...

...tutoring math in general since I took those courses during my high school and undergraduate career. To me its like a puzzle and thus I enjoy helping students piece together the knowledge. I like to start off tutoring by establishing a basic foundation so that we are on the same page and use a step wise learning system that builds upon the foundation we just built. Outside of tutoring I enjoy playing basketball, fishing, traveling...

...hurried home the first day to start reading my textbooks. But there was a problem. The textbooks were not exciting at all. They were also barely comprehensible. Science was taught in a language I did not initially understand. As your tutor, I can help translate the language of Science to one you can understand and master. I can also teach you useful study habits and techniques that will help you succeed in a competitive academic...

I have been teaching middle school life sciences for 4 years now and I love it. I got my degree from the University of Texas at Austin from the School of Natural Sciences. My goal is to help any student understand and enjoy science because science is all around us. The connections are there! ... Learning science should be fun and interactive, but also offer insight and purpose.... Ask them what they do to prepare for...

...as it is of utmost importance for everyone to deeply understand the subject. This will help us to make sound decisions on how to avoid becoming conspicuous consumers and to lead a planet-friendly lifestyle. When I interacted with students, I realize that students are not getting the right kind of education about environmental science. Students take the subject lightly and insignificant. Current education system discourages associative learning and teaching methods are compartmentalized. I foster 'learning...

Dedicated to helping students discover the joy of learning!

...I took 14 AP classes in high school, and retook many of the math and sciences class in college. I think this helps with tutoring because I learned the material multiple times and from many great teachers, so if a student doesn't understand a concept at first, I can hopefully explain it in another way that I've learned. I like working with students that are self motivated and want to have a tutor, no matter...

...taken all the prerequisites necessary for teaching and have a probationary teaching license from the state of Texas. I know how important tutoring can be in helping a student improve his or her grades and confidence. I have dyslexia/dysgraphia and benefited from tutoring when I was in school. Because of my learning disability, I understand that each student has a unique learning style. In the past, I tutored students from elementary school up to college....
