Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Georgetown, TX

...teaching assistant for a sophomore mechanical engineering class my senior year. The above experiences have prepared me to successfully help students grasp math and science concepts at all levels, from high school freshman Algebra I through to advanced, upper division undergraduate engineering courses. Beyond working with students on STEM subjects, I also work with students in standardized test prep (ACT, SAT, AP Exams, GRE, GMAT, etc.). I have a strong record in standardize tests. Most...

...University, I majored in an interdisciplinary 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...

...adults. I tutor a wide variety of subjects including math, Spanish, ESL, and test prep. I really enjoy tutoring geometry and algebra or SAT prep. My tutoring strengths include finding multiple ways to explain things for my students and giving real value to the learning process so that information can be retained. Outside of the academic world, I love to listen to and make music. I play volleyball, rugby, and soccer in my free time.

...my B.S. in Computer Science from a top 10 program, and have already had 3 summers of industry experience in Java, C/C++, and Python. In addition, I am currently a Research Assistant working on Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning! In teaching, I focus on working with students to solve problems together. It's important to understand each student's background knowledge, analyze underlying assumptions, and figure out how to approach the subject at hand. Understanding a...

...a result. Helping my peers became a way for me to solidify my understanding of topics. I have found that I enjoy explaining things to others as much as I love learning about the material in the first place. I also discovered that the best way to explain topics is to break the topic down into its base components and to give connections and similarities to other topics. Building a strong foundation is essential to...

...preceptor for different classes at UT Austin during my 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...

...tutoring my peers as part of the requirement for National Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta (math honor society). I enjoy tutoring ACT and SAT test prep, calculus, physics, and computer science because I have previous experience tutoring these subjects. I want to make sure that students I'm tutoring have a strong foundation in the subjects they are learning because a thorough understanding requires knowledge of the basics. Outside of school, my passions include playing...

...that I've learned. I like working 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...

...at Health Careers High School in San Antonio while 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...

...on their own while analyzing their thought process. This allows the student and instructor to discover the student's misconceptions and for the student to correct them. I have found that this method is much more effective than traditional styles because when the student verbalizes their thought process and corrects their own misconceptions, it is something they will remember when it comes time for an exam. I am passionate about tutoring mathematics, physics, chemistry, and ACT...
