Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors in Austin, TX

...with the student playing the music and his or her teacher listening carefully. The teacher doesn't look for mistakes, because 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...

...degrees in Accounting (BBA) and Finance (MS), and am currently taking advanced math classes to pursue a PhD in Economics. I am an Adjunct Professor teaching Accounting at community college, and I love teaching! I got my undergrad and masters degrees in 5 years combined with a GPA of 3.4-3.5, and scored in the 90-95th percentiles on my SAT, GMAT, and CPA. Whether I'm teaching undergraduate accounting classes, training staff accountants, or explaining concepts to...

...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 my rugby team, fellow classmates and friends. Regarding the subjects I have taught- I am familiar with math all the way up to Algebra 2 (including ACT and SAT Math),...

...and explanations come easy as well. The goal that I work towards for my students is to bless them holistically, both through my academic skills and through any relationship that I am able to build with them. I believe in teaching my key patterns of thinking; teach them how to fish instead of giving them a fish, as it is said. I am best at Math and Science, and any of the high-school level subjects...

...and often contributes to their discouragement and their writing off of entire subjects like math and science. I attempt to give students the ability to think critically, relish the problem solving process, and come to solutions on their own. To this end, I attempt to speak clearly and concisely, to make high-level concepts accessible to students of all ability levels, and to create strong personal relationships with my students. I am currently accepting students in...

...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 know not just the 'hows' but also the 'whys' behind what they're doing. This distinction is what I think turns a problem from something complex to something logical and simple....

...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 their current skill level in a class. Having a great teacher or tutor won't help if the...

...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 previously intimidating topic...

...of Columbia University in New York City and studied Applied Mathematics and Philosophy, while also pursuing pre-medical studies. In NYC, I gained a wide variety of teaching and tutoring experiences in classrooms, with private clients, and via community service work for non-profit organizations. Currently, I work at a middle school in Chicago teaching middle school math, as well as tutor for city clients. I am most passionate about math, but am comfortable working with students...

...tutor is to show my students how exciting learning can be. Through enthusiasm and a genuine love for math and the sciences, I hope to influence my students to adopt this same passion for learning so that they are motivated to continue learning new material during their high school and college years. I have been tutoring for years and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience I have gained and the friendships I have made with other...

...outside of the classroom! Cookie cutter lessons are so mundane and simply encourage students to memorize answers rather than truly learn the subject. I challenge my students to think outside the box in order to unlock greater comprehension and, more importantly, better grades. I got my Bachelor of Arts in the David Letterman School of Communications at Ball State University where I got to produce full-length albums for local bands and make fun short films...

...with students, finding 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...

As a Ph.D., I love teaching, tutoring and working in academia.

...University in St. Louis with a Bachelors of Arts and Sciences. While at Washington 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...

...Austin, Texas. I eventually decided to go to the University of Texas at Austin . I graduated with a bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering . During my time at UT I spent 4 semesters working as a tutor for chemistry, calculus, and physics. I also tutored my friends in whatever subjects they needed help in. I find tutoring to be a very rewarding experience and one of the best feelings is helping someone learn.

...and math students to teach. In this program I developed a passion for working with students both in and out of the classroom. I strongly believe in inquiry-based instruction, which consists of leading students to develop solutions 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...
