Hi! My name is Haley. I currently live and work in Austin. My entire family is dedicated to education and so am I. My education has opened so many doors to me and I want to help open even more doors for the students I tutor. As my education at The University of Texas at Austin has taught me, what starts here changes the world.
My name is Mohima Sultana and I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a BSA in Biochemistry. I have experience teaching a wide range of subjects and working with individuals from various ages and backgrounds with a specialized background in teaching middle school students. I enjoy teaching math, English, and of course all the sciences! I love languages and love to teach English and Arabic! I love helping students reach their goals and develop new skills! Over the years I have really discovered the importance of individualized learning. We each have our own style, methods and ways of learning and I think it is super important to utilize these individual needs when learning and retaining information. That is why I am super enthusiastic about helping you find the techniques that fit with your needs and making them work for you in reaching your academic goals! As a medical student myself, I have had to find ways to learn and retain information and I can use my experience to help you excel and pursue the knowledge of your dreams!

I am good at teaching GMAT Quantitative and have helped a number of students earn higher scores on this platform. I have also taught primary school children in India before as part of an NGO and helped my near and dear ones succeed in school and college with my guidance.My philosophy is "Learning can be fun" and there is always a new thing or two that one can learn in every day of his/her life in every little thing that he/she might encounter. I look forward to interacting actively and maybe learning a bit from you too. Education is bliss!
I am a graduate from The University of Texas at Austin. I received my bachelors and masters in accounting and have experience working at public accounting firms and technology companies. I have been both a tutor and teaching assistant for the department of accounting, helping many students better understand complex topics and prepare for exams. I am a firm believer in understanding over memorization. Whether its accounting, mathematics, or writing I believe it is effective to consider the "why" instead of skipping to the answer. I will soon be moving to New York to start a new position at a public accounting firm. Until then I plan to explore the greater Seattle area and discover the best food and activities.
I am currently a Teaching Assistant for a Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 class at the University of Texas, where I work with smaller and larger groups of students to correct misconceptions and deepen understanding. Before moving to the area, I was a full-time math teacher in Boston for 4 years, where I was in charge of writing and developing differentiated lesson plans based on students' learning types and abilities, while creating an atmosphere that is conducive to student learning and fosters confidence both socially and mathematically. I am able to transfer this to one-on-one tutoring sessions and find the best way to help my students reach their full potential. I am confident in my mathematical knowledge, but even more so in my ability to use hands-on lessons to create an untapped love of mathematics.

Hello!My name is Chris and I am an experienced math and science tutor of all levels from graduate engineering to elementary school (ages 10-80). Not only do I enjoy teaching but I have a gift in relaying abstract concepts to people of all ages and backgrounds. My skills encompass (in no particular order and levels ranging from elementary school to graduate) biology, chemistry, physics, statistics, algebra, trigonometry, geometry, business math, and calculus I, II, and III.I have provided 5 years of private tutoring undergraduate/graduate students, a year of tutoring students in a Dallas County Community College math center for 27 hrs/wk, and 2.5 years of teaching engineering concepts to elementary and middle school kids.As a tutor, my methods work for all ages and backgrounds. I first explain concepts in a broad scope, briefly connecting them to what was talked about previously and to what will be discussed in future sections. Next, I dive into practice problems and discussions to identify strengths/weaknesses. Overall, I adjust to my student(s) needs, looking for better ways to shed light on concepts. My tutoring approach allows us to spend time wisely on the appropriate sections.I am flexible to meet online or in person! Much of my private tutoring is accomplished across Texas via Skype or Google Hangouts.I am highly experienced in math and science as both a student and a teacher. Please do not hesitate to contact me about an in-person or online tutor soon!Thank you and sincerely,Chris R.
I'm a sophomore undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biology!

My goal is to help you get where you want to go, whether it is across the stage or across the country to Cambridge. I specialize in mathematics, Newtonian physics, and logic.I am a graduate petroleum engineering student at The University of Texas at Austin. My graduate research is focused on modeling friction losses between the drill string and wellbore during drilling operations. I did my undergrad at UT as well and majored in petroleum engineering and Plan II Honors (an interdisciplinary honors liberal arts program).
I am a recent high honors graduate from the University of Texas at Austin with a BA in International Relations and Global Studies. I have a general knowledge of most of the world, however my focuses include Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.I know about both history around the world and current events! To supplement these area studies, I studied Mandarin Chinese every semester during my four years of undergraduate studies, along with one year of intensive Arabic, and received excellent grades in all of my language courses. Specifically, I have studied and worked for a brief period in China, where I also lived with a Chinese roommate, and which provided me with invaluable cultural and linguistic knowledge and practice. I also speak Spanish and have ESL tutoring experience with a native Spanish speaker.This student was struggling in his high school courses and falling behind because he didn't understand what was being asked of him in many of his classes, and at the same time, he was wanting to prepare for the SAT. We worked together to figure out what his teachers were trying to convey during his class time (in various subjects, from math to history) and what exactly he was being asked to prepare and complete for various tests, homework, and projects. I used minimal Spanish, only when it was necessary, and I believe that this truly pushed him to learn out of his comfort zone, and he eventually became much more comfortable and confident being surrounding by English, in addition to being able to better understand what was being asked of him in his classes. Once we reached this point, he was better equipped to prepare for the SAT (reading & writing sections), which we did using practice material that he had purchased and brought to our sessions. We worked through some problems together so that I could help him understand the nature of the types of questions that are often asked in such standardized testing, and then he worked on these questions independently, asking questions when he ran into serious confusions or was unable to understand specific material.While I currently only have experience tutoring a Spanish-speaking ESL student, I would also love the opportunity to tutor any foreign-language speaking ESL students! I love studying languages and any opportunity to interact in different languages! In addition to the subjects surrounding my major, I also have a minor-level background in Linguistics.Not only do I offer ESL tutoring, but I also after tutoring for students who would like to start learning Mandarin, Arabic, or Spanish! I am likely to go about this tutoring in ways that are similar to they ways that I began learning, and continued to learn, each language in school because these methods have proven effective in my experience. I have learned that covering reading, writing, and speech evenly is highly important when maximizing your linguistic abilities in another language, and so I intend to practice each aspect with my students. Each language is very different, and therefore requires different approaches in its teaching method. Additionally, some students move more quickly through languages than others, and so I am open to tailoring language tutoring to and individual student's needs.Moreover, as a Liberal Arts major, I developed strong reading and writing skills, along with important analytical skills. I am confident in my ability to help others improve their reading, writing, and analytical skills. Throughout my undergraduate studies, I personally excelled in all of my courses that involved reading and writing. I have an excellent command of the English language, abundant experience peer-editing students writing, and knowledge about a variety of citation formats, such as MLA, Chicago, and APA.I also understand the importance of tailoring edits and feedback to each individual writer based on their level of ability, reasonable goals, and the purpose, or focus, of each specific piece of writing. In addition to general reading and writing improvement, I am also able to assist students in preparing for specific testing formats. Concerning standardized testing, specifically the reading and writing portions of the PSAT and SAT, I have personal experience taking and succeeding in these. Therefore, I understand the preparations that are required to do well on such tests, and I am confident in my ability to teach my students the skills that it takes to be successful.Lastly, I would like to say that I love learning and helping others learn! I don't know you yet, but I am already excited about the prospect of getting to teach you! I understand that each student is different, and so I am flexible and adaptable to all levels of ability and goals.
Hello, my name is Miguel. Thank you for browsing my profile. I hope to inspire confidence in whatever subject matter we approach together, boosting student confidence in academic areas and beyond.My teaching philosophy is to use extensive questioning to help students forge their own pathway. Naturally, questions from students are encouraged and valued during all of my sessions. I emphasize a strategy based approach to studying, and keep an updated list of strategies that my students are finding helpful. I prefer to test mastery of material via a role reversal in which I see if the student can teach me how to correctly solve problems and arrive at the correct answers. In my opinion, there is no better way to assess the depth and breadth of one's knowledge than to try to convey it to others.The study habits I hope to pass on to my students are ones that have benefited me throughout my educational career. I graduated salutatorian of my high school and won third place overall in Academic Decathlon state competition my senior year. My academic performance allowed me to attend both Rice University and the University of Texas at Austin, the latter at which I earned a 3.7 GPA, a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, and a Bachelor of Arts in English.As for pertinent work experience prior to Varsity Tutoring, I have tutored middle school aged children in English for a year as a part of the PAIR program and helped graduate students from foreign countries practice their conversational English.Please feel invited to contact me and/or ask me your questions. I am able to travel to most of Philadelphia and its surrounding suburbs, and my schedule is flexible. I look forward to finding times that both of us can work together. Best regards, and may you achieve your educational goals.
I'm a full-time high school math teacher who teaches juniors and seniors. This is my 5th year teaching. I'm looking to tutor after-school and on the weekends. I attended the University of Texas, majored in Mathematics, and graduated in 2011. During my time in Austin, I tutored part-time while going to school.It's been a while, but I want to get back into it. I want to make extra money doing something that not only someone would find useful but that I also find personally rewarding. Mathematics can be a difficult subject, and I want to help others understand it (try to!)I'm a laid-back person in general, but I take tutoring very seriously, because I want to respect your time. I will try my best to help you reach your goals and make our sessions together worthwhile and pleasant. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
I attended the University of Texas at Austin for my undergraduate studies, where I found my passion for the natural sciences. As I found ways to make the material more comprehensible, I was able to help my classmates and eventually decided to tutor. After spending over two and a half years tutoring in college, I went to medical school at UTMB and started tutoring first-year medical students during my second year. My passion for tutoring comes from seeing the confidence that I can help bring out in the learners I work with as I see them take a previously confusing or challenging topic and make sense of it. I particularly enjoy the natural sciences because of the elegantly consilient way that different subjects intertwine.If you find yourself not quite understanding the material as much as you would like for topics such as biology, chemistry, or physics, I may be able to help you. Furthermore, I also have experience tutoring for the MCAT and would be happy to spend some time discussing what I've learned applying to medical school and residency afterwards. I moved to Chicago for residency training with a dual specialization in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, currently in my third year. And although it's different in some ways from Austin, I love exploring Chicago and finding fun new and fun things to do!
I am a graduate from the University of Texas, where I majored in Applied Learning and Development. Currently, I am attending the University of Nevada - Las Vegas for my masters degree in Multicultural Education. I have been teaching children and adults of all ages since I began tutoring in high school, through working at a daycare throughout college, tutoring adults learning English in the El Puente program, and as an elementary teacher for the last three years.
I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Biology with a cellular, molecular, and developmental concentration. I grew up in Houston, TX and started tutoring during high school for students struggling with the math and science portions on the TAKS test. I discovered quickly that I really enjoyed working with others and can creatively think of different ways to explain key concepts to make them easier to understand. I continued this passion when I went to Austin for college, working as an undergraduate researcher, mentor, and preceptor for biochemistry. I worked with my professors to organize and conduct weekly study sessions and reviews before exam days. Following graduation, I decided to postpone my plans of going on to medical school to become part of the AVID program. As an AVID tutor, I work work closely with disadvantaged students in grades 6-12 to help them with various subjects such as algebra I/II, geometry, calculus, physics, chemistry, and biology. In my free time, I enjoy checking out new restaurants with friends and trying new recipes with (huge foodie here!). I also enjoy long distance running, kayaking, camping, hiking, road trips, and photography.
With four years of STEAM teaching and experience tutoring middle and high schoolers, I've learned that tailoring lessons to each student and being consistent is what helps students understand concepts and get results!
Not many people can say that they have a view of another country from their back yard, but I can! Being born and raised in El Paso, Texas, many cultural doors were opened for me at a young age. I grew up with a love for enchiladas, chilaquiles, horchata and Spanish. I have been speaking Spanish since I learned how to speak. I took bilingual classes all through my elementary and middle school years and took advanced Spanish classes in high school. I now aspire to share my knowledge and love for the language with others. I look for fun and creative ways to help my students internalize the language. There are so many ways to practice a foreign language and I would love to share my special techniques with you! Being bilingual has enriched my life in so many ways. I hope that with my help, this beautiful language opens doors in the future for you as well!
I really enjoy working with others and providing people with more resources to become academically successful. Throughout this pandemic, I have seen the consequences of not being able to seek help in person such as feeling overwhelmed and not knowing who to reach out to. Therefore, I want to extend my help virtually to make up for the lack of face-to-face interactions.I am currently a second-year biochemistry major at the University of Texas at Austin, and I am also a pre-medical student. Due to my passions in STEM and the natural sciences, I feel very confident in tutoring areas in Math and Science. I am very enthusiastic when I tutor and love to reassure others of their efforts.

Hello!My name is Lauren, and I'm currently a Public Relations major at the University of Texas at Austin. I'm originally from Houston, Texas- popularly known as the birthplace of Beyonce- where I attended 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 fort. When my mom picked up on this fact I was promptly placed into dance class, which I liked because it was indoors. My approval of air conditioned dance practice eventually evolved into a real passion and appreciation for the art form. Dancing (and now, cheerleading!) provides the platform to develop the strong, committed, and confident personality that defines me today.A little bit about my experience:- I worked with the Breakthrough Houston School Year Program as an English Teacher from 2013-2016. (I maintained a classroom of 12 8th grade students a couple of Saturdays each month)- I worked as a Summer School Tutor for high school students at Cristo Rey Jesuit high school during the summers of 2014 and 2015, focusing primarily on essay building and English.- As a freshman college student, I consider myself to be well-versed in the college application arena. I have a plethora of tips and tricks stored in my arsenal to facilitate a smooth application experience.- Scholarships: I am currently attending UT through the generosity of the Texas Exes Forty Acres Scholars Program: UT's only merit-based full ride.In addition to teaching middle school English throughout high school- I have a passion for reading/writing and a knack for personal voice.Thanks for taking the time to visit with me! Don't hesitate to contact me with any inquiries. If you are ready to schedule an appointment, feel free to shoot me a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. See you soon!

One of my favorite things about teaching is getting students excited to learn with fun and engaging lessons. This enables them to be successful, to feel good about themselves, and to want to learn more. As a lifelong Spanish speaker who lived in Mexico for 5.5 years, I love teaching Spanish. I graduated with a BA in Drama from UT Austin, and received my MA in Educational Psychology and Counseling from UTSA. I am also certified to teach Drama and Spanish, have taught both subjects, and have tutored children and adults in Spanish.
I grew up speaking English and Spanish. I obtained my Bachelor's of Arts from the University of Texas in 2003. I majored in Spanish and minored in English. I also obtained my TESOL in 2018. I first started tutoring English when I was in college. I worked on campus in their tutoring center. I really enjoyed this. Next I worked as a Bilingual Substitute Teacher with the school district. I did this for many years and have extensive experience in many grade levels. For a while I also worked as a Spanish and Portuguese teacher for a language school. Recently, I have been teaching ESL online for almost three years. With smaller children I try to be more fun and engaging. I like to adapt to a students personality. Some are very outgoing and others have a more quiet nature about them. It is important to make them feel comfortable.
I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts in Japanese and a minor in Anthropology. In 2016 I was lucky enough to study abroad in Sapporo, Japan, where my interest in participating in our international community began. I'm currently studying in preparation for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, or JLPT at the N2 level. While I can help students with any subject, I am most passionate about helping students learn grammar structures and verb conjugation. My teaching philosophy is flexible, and I like to try several teaching methods to find what students respond to the most because all students are individuals and don't learn the same way. Language learning can be frustrating, so I also hope to reassure students that any progress is positive. When I'm not studying or teaching, I enjoy watching movies, skateboarding, and going on bike rides.
I love working one-on-one 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 degree in Computer Sciences, and am currently finishing a master's degree in Community Counseling.
I have worked as a teaching assistant since 2015, helping students struggling in class get the extra push they need to succeed. I have also tutored students at my school and volunteered at my local Boys and Girls club. I have tutored students in subjects ranging from Calculus to Chemistry to Language Arts, but I specialize in teaching Math and Science.As a tutor, I love to see students improve themselves, and I strive to create those "aha!" moments when everything begins to make sense. When I teach, I find it is most effective to find out how a student approaches a problem and rationalize it in their mind. Although memorization is necessary at times, it is better to learn how a concept is derived from other ideas to truly make the knowledge your own.
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!

Hello! I am a Brazilian/American Francophile, who have been a language teacher (English/Portuguese/French) for over 25 years. I was educated at an International School and I have worked at various Berlitz Language Institutes around the world, including the Centers in Rio de Janeiro, Lisbon, Berlin and Austin, Texas. I now live in Florida. In the past, I also taught languages at Oil Rigs (Petrobras and TransOcean) off the Brazilian coast, teaching English to the Brazilian crew and Portuguese to the foreign one. That was super exciting and I got to ride a helicopter to go to work every two weeks! I have an Associate's degree in French ( I have lived in Paris and travelled to France various times) and a Bachelor's in History and Anthropology from the University of Texas. I love to enrich my classes with cultural, geographical, geopolitical and current events related to the language we are studying. After all, language is culture!! Most of my students are business professionals, as well as worldly tourists, who need to learn a foreign language fast, usually for a future trip or stay abroad. However, in the past, I have also taught youngsters (between 10 and 15) in private homes as well as virtually. My methodology has an emphasis on conversation, little grammar, some reading and writing, plus all the cultural background related to the language/countries in question. I like to think of myself as a " citizen of the world" , a "cosmopolitan" (in fact, my favorite drink!). I love to meet different people, from different cultures and backgrounds. Besides being a language instructor and enthousiast, I am also a world traveller and an Indie writer, with three novels published on Amazon under the name : Isabela Pamelli Martins. " Copadrama" , the first one, (published in 2009) is a fun, satirical Rio romantic story. " Bye Bye Brasil; Hello America!" (available only for Portuguese readers) is inspired on true stories of Brazilian immigrants in the U.S. Finally, " Pamelli's Accelerator" is designed specifically for Portuguese Students. Tchau! Au revoir! Bye for now!!
Hi I'm a senior at UT Austin studying biology pre-med with a certificate in business foundations. I remember high school being tough and teachers couldn't really help me one-on-one, so I'm here to help you with anything you may be struggling with!
