Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...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 fellow students during study sessions, I greatly enjoy articulating concepts and puzzling out the best way to engage learners and convey information in an accessible way. I love seeing...

...currently freshman at University of Texas at Austin pursuing a BS in computer science. I have experience tutoring my peers as part of the requirement for National Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta (math honor society).

Sam: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...Science in that field (Undergraduate GPA of 3.98/4.00). The coursework for my degree gave me a strong grounding in and understanding for the fundamental principles of math, science and engineering. During my time as an undergraduate student, I also began to develop tutoring and teaching skills.

Bipul: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...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 and I address each...

Alex: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...started my first company (I am now on my second). I have always valued education but at times saw that teaching methods did not adapt appropriately to the student. There is more than one way 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...

Alyssa: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...small class sizes for the IB program, as well as the familiarity with the teachers. It was a driving factor in the my college choice. I went to Swarthmore College, a liberal arts college outside of Philadelphia. There, I completed my Bachelor's degree in Latin American Studies. I plan to continue my education and get a Master's in Public Policy. My tutoring philosophy partially comes from what worked with me, but it also from my...

Ricardo: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...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 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...

Lauren: Brushy Creek tutor
Certified Tutor in Brushy Creek, TX
...St. John's School. I am a middle child, a proud Pitbull puppy owner, and an enthusiastic student. Fun fact; When I was five, my mom signed me up for a youth soccer team, where I discovered that running after a ball in Houston’s humid summer heat- or at any time- for that matter, simply isn’t my forté. When my mom picked up on this fact I was promptly placed into dance class, which I liked...

...ages and ability levels--from profoundly gifted students to students struggling with learning disabilities. I believe every student has the potential to succeed, it is just a question of finding the right entryway into the material. Since teachers don't always have the time to work individually with every student, that's where a tutor comes in! I'm a strong advocate for Carol Dweck's growth mindset theory of education, encouraging students to learn and grow from their mistakes...

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
The student just finished reading and discussing a short story in his Spanish class. Although he did not have his official essay assignment, he began writing out some ideas and reflections on the story. We spent the majority of our time practicing oral conversation, though, in preparation for an anticipated oral presentation on various issues related to Mexico, including politics, the economy, history, culture, food, and sports.

The student and I reviewed two of the questions that she had missed on her Chemistry quiz and then worked out problems relating to the remainder theorem so she would be ready for her Alg2 test tomorrow. We solved problems using synthetic and long division with an emphasis on synthetic division since that was the area where she needed more help. Our goal is for her to get an A on her test tomorrow.

We went over the essay portion of the AP in much greater detail. I had her explain it to me and then how she would use it in her paper. We did basically the same thing for the free response questions. I had her outline her arguments for each question she would have chosen. We went through some practice multiple-choice questions as well, just to make sure she has it down pat.

The student and I did problems about circles. Topics included angles of inscribed circles and intercepting chords, tangent, and secant lines and arc length measures. She remembered some things and asked plenty of questions when she needed to. We worked on picturing only the necessary components and she found it made the problem look more manageable.

Today I helped him to study for his science exam which was on the Bohr Model and The Lewis Dot Structure. We focused mainly on the Bohr since that was where his teacher placed the emphasis in his class. I am so proud of the student. He received 85% on his Math exam that was held on May 25th.

We covered reading comprehension. She did very well. She performed so well, I didn't want to waste her time covering things she seems to be grasping well. If she puts in time working practice sections/questions (the best way to improve speed in my opinion), I think she will be able to reach her goal.
