Award-Winning Middle School Tutors
serving Houston, TX

Middle schoolers often need someone who can move fluidly between math homework, a science worksheet, and an English essay in a single session. Anne's engineering honors curriculum at Texas A&M keeps her sharp across all three areas, and she approaches each assignment by first figuring out exactly where a student's understanding breaks down before moving forward.

A finance degree and a current grad program in computer science mean Mira moves comfortably between the quantitative and verbal sides of middle school — pre-algebra one moment, essay structure the next. Her broad tutoring range across math, science, English, grammar, and history lets her handle a full evening's homework spread, and her own experience navigating two very different academic disciplines gives her a practical take on the study skills and organizational habits middle schoolers are just starting to need.

Engineering grad school means Christi spends her days bouncing between calculus, physics, coding in MATLAB, and writing technical reports — so when a middle schooler needs to shift gears from a math worksheet to a science project to an essay draft in one session, she's wired for that kind of subject-hopping. Her mechanical engineering undergrad also gave her a habit of breaking big, intimidating problems into smaller mechanical steps, which is exactly the skill most middle schoolers are still learning to build when homework suddenly multiplies across six classes.

I am a multi-subject polymath with great and depth in what I teach who always places the needs, desires and dreams of students first. A Lifelong Scholar focused on Excellence, my praxis seeks to empower those I I teach by infecting them with passion for critical thinking and awakening and nurturing their "I know I can! Let's do it!" energies. Comfortable with technology, I strive to continually improve teaching and learning processes so my tutees become adept at turning information into knowledge. Champion, then, of scholars' growth both individually and communally/collaboratively, I guide them to learn where, when, how and why to take control individually and when to trust the team. At the core of my methodology is the ability to listen: My students, then, can become adepts at PEARLS (Partnership, Empathy, Apology/Acknowledgment, Respect, Legitimation, and Support), not only "listening to" but "hearing" interlocutors in this increasingly multi-vocal/valent world. Consequently equitable, suitable, ethical and sustainable solutions with clear benefits for all stakeholders in the learning transaction can emerge. And because "we" this includes me the Champion and Guide willingly created this result, "we/they" willingly accept and acknowledge the outcome, willingly "owning it." It is "our buck."

Though I enjoy working with all subjects, teaching Math is my passion. I know that everyone has the potential to understand Math. My goal is to make sure that every student that I work with realizes their own potential, becomes a more confident mathematician, and is ultimately able to reach whatever level of success they aspire to.
