Award-Winning Middle School Tutors
serving San Antonio, TX

I'm Thomas. I am a graduate from medical school (MD) and have completed my Master's in Public Health (MPH). I've been tutoring all my life and am excited to continue with Varsity Tutors! I specialize in most Math and Science subjects, as well as subjects directly related to medical school (and of course the MCAT). I've always enjoyed learning, and I believe anybody can improve in any subject if it's presented to them in the right way. If you're struggling don't be discouraged!

I am a recent graduate from The University of Texas at Austin, where I triple majored in Plan II Honors, Psychology, and Music. I have always valued education and effective testing taking strategies, especially as an incoming medical student. I am very meticulous, patient, and motivating! I have tutored college students in subjects such as writing, math, reading, and music. Ever since I was in high school, I have enjoyed working with children through volunteer activities and over the years have developed the sensitivity and patience required to instruct children as well as connect to them. I am currently a Youth Market Coordinator for the American Heart Association. In this part-time position, I speak to large groups of elementary school children and educate them on how to live healthy lives while spreading the mission of AHA. Please contact me if you have any questions!

I am able to have fun with my students and make them feel at ease. My students like working with me because they can tell that I care a lot about their success as well as their understanding and enjoyment of the subject matter.

"Make your life a masterpiece, imagine no limitations on what you can be, have, or do." -Brian Tracy. As an educator, I am honored to have the opportunity to share my knowledge in order to contribute to the success of others! I firmly believe in a holistic style of education- one that places an emphasis on the student as opposed to the content. From personal experience, I am aware that every person learns differently from one another and ground my style of teaching in what best suits my students. To me, it is important to empower all students and encourage their desire to learn; after all, exams and grades are only temporary, but knowledge lasts forever!I wholeheartedly enjoy teaching all subjects that fall within the realm of my expertise, but I am especially passionate about biology, chemistry, mathematics, writing, and most of all teaching how to learn! Together, we will cultivate lifelong learning skills and turn your academic goals into achievements. -Chamberlyn

I am currently a sophomore electrical and computer engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin. I helped out as a general subject (math, science, history, etc.) tutor 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 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, sports, and playing video games, basically anything that engages the body or mind!

I am in my final semester at the University of North Texas, majoring in political science, minoring in criminal justice and social science, and recieving certificates in legal studies and Latine/Mexican American studies. I also work tutoring and caring for elementary school students in an extended school day program. I look forward to assisting students learn the subjects that once intimidated me, such as government, politics and history. There is always so much going on in the school day and its beneficial to get more indepth help with subjects when you can. I am willing to provide this assistance so students feel comfortable and confident with the material they are learning. In my free time, I enjoy painting and watching TV or movies.

I am studying for my Bachelor's in Computer Science at the University of Texas. I spend a lot of my time learning, and most of my time in high school, was either studying for the 17 total AP exams I took, or studying for Academic UIL competitions and Science Bowl. I spend a lot of my time in class, or learning outside through self study of what I'm interested in, like other computer science languages, or different real world science and math problems.

I enjoy helping others realize their potential and making the impossible possible. Everyone can reach their goals, and it is my goal to help you reach yours! Math is my favorite subject, and I have even participated in competitions for it. I hope to help others fall in love with math as well.

A Spanish degree from Loyola Marymount and current grad work in digital communication mean Iselee moves comfortably between language arts and analytical subjects — covering math, reading, writing, and science at the middle school level in a single session. Her bilingual background is especially useful when breaking down grammar and syntax concepts that trip up students who've never had to think about how language is actually structured, and her ESL tutoring experience gives her a quick read on where comprehension is genuinely breaking down versus where a student just needs a concept reframed. Rated 4.8 by families.

Between teaching ESL at Pat Neff Elementary and studying global communication across two universities (Rice and Texas A&M), Madison learned to read a room quickly and adjust how she explains things — a skill that matters most with middle schoolers, who can shut down the moment they feel talked down to or lost. She covers reading, writing, math, and Spanish at this level, and her intercultural communication training gives her a particular edge with students who are navigating academics in a language that isn't their first. Rated 4.9 by families.

Princeton's McGraw Tutoring program put Samantha in front of college students struggling with calculus, but her psychology coursework is what sharpened her read on younger learners — specifically, how a middle schooler's brain handles the jump from concrete arithmetic to abstract pre-algebra thinking. She covers math, science, and writing at this level, and her 4.9 rating suggests she's figured out how to make that transition feel less overwhelming.

A psychology degree gives Katelyn a sharper-than-average read on what's actually going on when a middle schooler shuts down mid-homework — whether it's a confidence issue, an unnoticed gap in pre-algebra foundations, or just the overwhelm of juggling six subjects for the first time. Her math background is especially deep, covering everything from elementary through calculus, so she can trace a seventh grader's fraction struggles all the way back to the root and rebuild from there. She also has experience working with gifted and special needs students, which means she adjusts her approach based on how each kid actually learns.

Growing up as the oldest of five kids gave Nathan a natural instinct for breaking down concepts at different levels, which shows in the range he covers — from math fundamentals and reading comprehension to early science and writing structure. His 5.0 rating speaks to how well middle schoolers respond to his approach of connecting each lesson to a bigger-picture skill they'll use again. He's especially strong at building the organizational and study habits that set students up before high school hits.

A doctorate in physical therapy means Alyssa spends her days mastering anatomy, biology, psychology, and research methods simultaneously — so when a middle schooler needs to pivot from a pre-algebra assignment to a science worksheet to an English essay in one session, she's built for that kind of mental gear-shifting. Her 4.0 undergrad GPA and 35 ACT reflect study habits she can actually teach, not just model, and she's particularly sharp at showing students how to organize material across subjects before test weeks pile up. Rated 5.0 by families.

The jump to managing six different classes at once trips up a lot of students — suddenly there's a math worksheet, a reading response, and a history project all due the same week, and nobody's taught them how to prioritize.

Pre-med coursework at UT Austin means Chantelle juggles biology, chemistry, math, and writing-intensive classes simultaneously — the college version of what middle schoolers face when they're bouncing between a science worksheet, a history reading, and a grammar assignment in one night. Her public health training also sharpens a skill that's underrated at this level: pulling key information from dense, unfamiliar texts and turning it into something organized and usable. Rated 5.0 by families.

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.

Between her psychology coursework at Duke and her role in the admissions office, Sarah spends most of her time understanding how students think and what makes them tick — which turns out to be exactly what middle schoolers need when they're navigating the leap from structured elementary routines to juggling six subjects with rising expectations. She covers math, science, reading, writing, and study skills at this level, and her psych training gives her a quick read on whether a student is stuck because of a content gap or because they haven't yet learned how to organize their own learning.

Hi y'all! I hold my Master of Science in Psychology of Sport and my Bachelor of Science in both Psychology and Applied Human and Sport Physiology. I have many years of tutoring under my belt, working with people of all levels from elementary school through college in hard science subjects (Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics), a few social sciences (History, Psychology, Economics), and language arts. When not tutoring, I love playing soccer and I even coach a youth team. I love encouraging students to learn, grow, and think critically for themselves.

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.

Studying Education & Child Studies and Theatre at Smith College means Jennifer spends her days thinking about how kids actually absorb information — and her theatre training gives her a storytelling instinct that makes even a dry grammar lesson or a tricky word problem feel less like a chore. She's worked with students across a wide range of ability levels, so she's quick to spot whether a middle schooler needs to slow down and fill a foundational gap or push ahead with more challenging material. Rated 4.9 by families.

Training as a Physician Assistant means Joyce spends her days synthesizing biology, anatomy, chemistry, and dense clinical reading — so when a middle schooler needs to bounce between a pre-algebra assignment, a science worksheet, and an English essay in one session, she can shift gears without missing a beat. Her biology degree and biomedical sciences master's anchor the STEM side, but her philosophy minor sharpened the close-reading and argumentation skills that show up in middle school writing and reading comprehension. Rated 5.0 by families.

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.

Middle schoolers are juggling new academic demands — pre-algebra concepts, five-paragraph essays, science fair projects — often for the first time without hand-holding. Ashish covers math, science, and writing at this level and keeps sessions structured enough to build real skills while making sure a sixth or seventh grader doesn't dread sitting down to work.

Two English degrees mean Binny lives in the world of reading and writing — parsing arguments, structuring essays, unpacking dense texts — which puts her squarely in the wheelhouse of the skills middle schoolers are expected to develop across nearly every class. She's especially strong on the language arts side, from grammar mechanics to organizing a coherent five-paragraph essay, and her background in psychology and human development gives her a practical sense of how eleven- and thirteen-year-olds actually process new information.

The jump to middle school often isn't about harder content — it's about suddenly needing to keep track of math homework, a reading response, and a history project all due the same week. Ankit's business coursework means he lives that kind of juggling daily, and his broad tutoring range across math, English, reading, and writing lets him cover a full evening's assignments in one session without losing steam. Rated 4.9 by families.

Having worked as a nanny and tutor to families across the DFW area, Alexandra knows the particular chaos of middle school — the night-before science poster, the math test on fractions the same week as a book essay draft. Her dual focus on Spanish and Creative Writing at UNT gives her real range across the humanities side, while her 33 ACT and broad subject list mean she's equally comfortable jumping into pre-algebra or basic science when the evening's homework demands it. Rated 4.9 by families she's worked with.

Middle schoolers are juggling new expectations — multi-step math problems, longer writing assignments, independent reading — often without anyone explicitly teaching them how to manage the leap. Sanjana covers everything from pre-algebra fundamentals to paragraph structure, adjusting her approach based on what each student needs that week. Her biology and math background means she's equally comfortable with a life science worksheet or an English book report.

Venkata's engineering coursework at Texas A&M keeps him immersed in math and science daily, which means he can break down pre-algebra concepts or a tricky science assignment with the kind of fluency that comes from actually using this material — not just remembering it from years ago. He also covers reading, writing, and grammar, so when a student shows up with a mixed bag of homework across four subjects, he doesn't need to punt on any of it. Rated 5.0 by families.

Coming straight out of the Texas Academy of Math and Science — an early college program where she earned an associate degree alongside her high school diploma — Jaishri knows what it's like to handle college-level coursework at an age when most kids are still figuring out how to keep a planner. That experience makes her a natural fit for middle schoolers navigating the jump from single-subject simplicity to juggling math, science, English, and history all at once. Her psychology training also gives her a read on the motivation and confidence issues that tend to surface right around sixth or seventh grade.

Between her Future Teacher Internship, classroom assistant work, and current role as an AVID tutor, Sarah has spent most of her college years so far embedded in real classrooms with students navigating the middle school grind — juggling reading logs, math homework, and essay drafts in the same week. Her Literary Studies major and Psychology minor at UT Dallas give her a dual lens for the language arts side and for understanding why a seventh grader shuts down when a task feels overwhelming, so she can adjust her approach before frustration takes over.

A double math-and-business major who scored a 35 ACT, Alison brings genuine numerical fluency to the subject middle schoolers tend to dread most — but she also covers reading, writing, and study skills across the board. Her French concentration adds a second layer of discipline around grammar and language structure that sharpens her ability to explain why a sentence works or doesn't, not just mark it wrong. She's still close enough to her own middle school years to remember what actually made concepts stick versus what just felt like busywork.

A microbiology and environmental biology background means Adeyemi has spent years translating dense scientific material into clear, digestible pieces — a skill that pays off when a middle schooler needs help connecting what they're learning in life science to how they write about it in English class. He covers math, science, writing, and grammar at this level, and his graduate training in research methods gives him a structured approach to teaching study habits like note organization and breaking long-term projects into weekly steps.

Financial mathematics at UT Austin means Neel lives in the overlap between analytical thinking and real-world problem solving — which is exactly the gear middle schoolers need as pre-algebra, essay writing, and basic economics start showing up in the same week. His computer science minor adds a systematic, step-by-step logic to how he explains everything from fraction operations to paragraph structure, and his 5.0 rating suggests that approach lands well with younger students.

As a senior Mechanical Engineering student who tutors math, science, and English, Chahat covers the full range of middle school academics under one roof. She's especially effective at showing students how skills connect across subjects — how the logical thinking in math applies to structuring an essay or interpreting a science experiment.

Between a math degree, years in gifted and AP coursework, and a 5.0 client rating, Allison brings genuine academic range to the middle school level — she covers math through pre-algebra, English, writing, science, and study skills without needing to fake comfort in any of them. She's also an oboist and a writer, which means she gets the reality of a twelve-year-old trying to practice an instrument, finish a book report, and study for a math test all in the same night.
