Award-Winning Science Tutors in Austin, TX

...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 are, and move forward from there.... Music lessons always...

...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 can always learn something, I wish to help others learn and do better as well. My hobbies include exercise,...

...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 University of Texas at Austin. While in this program, I volunteered in several reverse-inclusion courses for adults with intellectual...

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.

...raised Austinite and recently earned my Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from Texas A&M University in May 2015. I mostly tutor high school/college math and science courses, as well as SAT/ACT and MCAT prep. My favorite classes to help students with are biology, physics, biochemistry and statistics! 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...

...to college students, 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...

...was an active member all four years of high school. During my time in MAO, I competed and placed in a number of math contests and competitions both locally and nationally. My other experiences in math include Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, SAT Subject Mathematics: Levels 1 and 2, Multivariable Calculus, and Differential Equations. My past teaching experience consists of in-person and online tutoring. I used to tutor students at my local...

...the GRE exam and scored a 337/340, with a perfect 170 score on the quantitative section. While my number one priority for students I work with on standardized test prep is a thorough understanding of the material covered in the scope of the test, I also understand that scoring well on standardized tests often requires more than a firm grasp of the subject matter under examination. It requires a commanding understanding of test taking strategies,...

...and their own abilities and knowledge. One of the key ingredients to doing well on homework assignments and exams is to be confident in oneself. Confidence leads to perseverance and tenacity, but it is often the first quality that is lost when a student is having trouble in school. I believe that by helping my students realize just how capable they truly are, I can help them rebuild their confidence when they study, do homework,...

...a teacher certification program at Judson University. I have several years of experience working with students from pre-K to high school in the areas of Reading, Writing and Language Arts, as well as Math and ACT/SAT preparation. I have worked with students of varying abilities, including those with learning difficulties and gifted students. I grew up in Chicago, but was born in Ukraine, so I speak Russian fluently. I also speak Spanish--I learned it in...

...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 carry it forward in my interactions with...

...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 soccer, traveling, and playing the piano.

...I had a talent for teaching; I understand concepts very easily, 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...

...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...

...in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. I have experience teaching college-level science labs as well as freelance tutoring. I began tutoring because I wanted to help students find success and enjoyment 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...

...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 can be incredibly empowering!

...experience in revising and writing questions for these tests. Lastly, I am a TA for anatomy and physiology at my university and this has been my favorite teaching experience. My favorite subjects to tutor are math (anything from geometry and SAT math to calculus) and science- particularly biology and chemistry. I love subjects such as anatomy, neuroscience and organic chemistry, which make you form images in your mind and learn using spatial skills. I find...

...graduate of The University of Texas at Austin, where I studied Plan II, Biochemistry, and Radio-TV-Film. I hope to share my passion for the arts and sciences by way of teaching and making movies. Back in high school, I volunteered at the local library as a free tutor for low-income students. I find that genuine human interaction is one of the best ways to learn and achieve a shared understanding. In addition to tutoring, I...

...to provide you an experienced perspective on your attempted course work. I prefer that students come prepared to a tutoring session, with written questions about their text and/or class notes. It also helps to bring a first written attempt at any of their homework or other course assessments. If needed, I can teach a math topic from scratch, but that often involves more time used than what the student budgeted. For my education, I earned...

My name is Jason and I love to tutor. I have experience working with elementary school students as well as tutoring Economics, Sociology formally as well as everything under the sun informally. I enjoy using creative references to get my point across.
