Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at Austin

Hey! My name is Baoyi and you can call me Rita. I studied and graduated at The University of Texas at Austin. I am an outgoing, organized, friendly and responsible person. I am fluent in Mandarin and English, and I'd love to help more people to know and learn about Mandarin. Most people think Mandarin is hard, but I will say it is super beautiful, interesting and worth learning. I hope you are interested in it and thank you for visiting my profile:)

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics with concentrations in French and Spanish. As the daughter of an educator, I have always had a personal passion for academic success, and have actively engaged in helping students grow into their potential. I was a volunteer peer tutor as a high school senior, always helped my fellow undergraduate classmates, and tutored members of my church community after graduation. After a corporate career, I worked as a high school math and science teacher with a focus on algebra, PSAT prep, earth science, and chemistry. Many of my students were years below grade level, but I found ways to meet them where they were and teach them in ways they could understand. As a parent, I homeschooled our daughter from pre-kindergarten through second grade and have continued to nurture her curiosity for learning. While an area of study may not be every student's favorite, we can all learn something from every subject that helps form us into the people we are destined to become. I hope all my students--no matter their age--learn that they CAN do hard things! In my spare time, I enjoy crafting, cooking, watching documentaries, singing, and listening to music.

Personal Facts and Style: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Native English Speaker and No Accent (These are important to some students) Patient and Friendly Like to explain things step by step and write a lot on the white board! ALWAYS open to questions and suggestions from students and parents Background: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have always enjoyed teaching new concepts to people, whether formally or informally. To paraphrase an old TV series title, I would say "Have books, will travel" to describe my passion for teaching. Of course, now these "books" are often online, and we travel with laptops and tablets. But learning will always be associated with the word books, in my opinion. My experience includes all levels of mathematics, including calculus, business calculus, and multi-variable calculus. I also love teaching the fundamentals such as algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. I am very comfortable in teaching computer-based topics such as Cloud Computing concepts as well as specifics for Amazon Web Services (AWS) Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Tutoring Approach: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When tutoring, I first try to understand the student's specific goals and needs. Maybe it's help with HW. Maybe it's general concepts. Perhaps it's a standardized test such as AP, SAT, GRE. What does the student need and what are his/her goals? How can I help? That's my approach. I try to make sessions interactive to make the learning process interesting. This also helps reinforce student learning. For 1-1 sessions, this is relatively easy to do. For group sessions, I try to ask students if they understand, and I give them time to solve the problems that I present. Subjects of Interest to Me (not a complete list) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Science is awesome right? From the biochemical reactions inside of our cells to the extreme biological adaptations of deep-diving sperm whales to the long distance migration of some birds, nature never ceases to amaze me. I love Biology (especially Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Cancer Biology), Chemistry (especially Biochemistry and Organic Chemistry), and Physics (Classical and Modern). I enjoy tutoring in these subjects as stand-alone or as part of the MCAT exam. Current Endeavors ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am currently working on Machine Learning (ML), and specifically neural networks. I use Python (with the Tensor Flow and Kera packages) and Jupyter Notebooks. I also use various tools in the cloud, and I set up billing alerts and cost constraints to ensure that I stay within my prescribed budget. I am also analyzing data such as my own Apple health data (XML format). There are many tools available for data analysis. I like using Microsoft Fabric along with the Azure Cloud, as it provides a good end-to-end solution.

I attended UT Austin for my undergraduate degree and majored in biology. I am currently a fourth-year medical student. I had the opportunity in undergrad to be a learning assistant at UT Austin in general chemistry, a Peer Mentor in genetics and a tutor at the Sanger Learning Center at UT Austin for general chemistry, biology, cell biology and genetics. I enjoy tutoring students and helping them to avoid the frustration and stress that often comes with learning new, challenging material by breaking it down into easily understood pieces. Outside of academics, I enjoy playing tennis and taking puppy on walks!

I'm committed to serving students in order to support them in their success by helping them explore and learn in ways that are more engaging.

Hello, my name is Shona, and I am a Behavioral and Social Data Science major at UT Austin. I have experience tutoring young children, and I scored a 4 out of 5 on the AP Calculus AB exam in high school. I enjoy helping students understand math concepts and building their confidence in problem-solving. I look forward to working with you!

Hello! I'm Rebecca Black, a junior at the University of Texas at Austin, currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Humanities Honors. With over 3 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in subjects such as Algebra, Psychology, including AP and Developmental Psychology, as well as chemistry for high school and college students. My teaching philosophy centers around creating an engaging and supportive learning environment where students feel confident to explore and solve problems. I employ a "try it yourself first" approach, encouraging students to tackle challenges independently before we collaborate on solutions. I believe that incorporating humor and personality into lessons not only enhances understanding but also fosters a genuine connection with students. I am passionate about empowering learners to develop critical thinking skills that will benefit them academically and beyond.

Life is like music. With proper technique and daily practice there's nothing you can't do.My favorite thing about science and math is the ability to solve a problem in radically different ways to achieve the same result. There's some way to make sense of it all for everyone! My goal is to find out what makes sense for you!

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 passionate about helping students succeed in math and intro to coding by making tough concepts click. I love guiding students through problem-solving and helping them gain confidence along the way.

I also teach first- year composition at UT-Austin.I enjoy working with students on an individual basis as we engage in the labor and joy of writing together. I especially enjoy working with students on college application essays, whether personal essays or applicationstatements, and I am also experienced with on-demand writing tasks that appear on tests like the SAT or the AP Exams. With seven years of classroom experience and three years of experience working as a grader for the International Baccalaureate program, my unique blend of both teaching and professional writing experience allows me to effectively help students reach their full potential.

I combine my academic and professional experience, as a creative writer and freelancer, to offer students advice, and help them develop the skills that will aid them in any academic/professional situation.

Education has always been a journey of discovery and resilience for me. I earned a bachelor's degree from Texas A&M and then attended UT Southwestern for medical school. I am now a resident physician with an MD and MPH working at a large county hospital. My experience as a tutor has been shaped by both my academic background and my own learning challenges. As a tutor for medical students at my school, I have found fulfillment in breaking down complex subjects like physiology, pharmacology, and pathophysiology in ways that make them more accessible. Having navigated my own educational path with a diagnosis of ADHD, I understand that learning is not one-size-fits-all. My approach is centered on meeting students where they are and equipping them with strategies tailored to their unique strengths. Whether through active recall, visual learning, or problem-based approaches, my goal is to help students unlock their full potential in a way that feels intuitive and sustainable for THEM.

I am dedicated to fostering a supportive environment where students feel motivated to excel, and I look forward to helping them achieve their goals. In my free time, I love reading and exploring new ideas that enrich my teaching methods.

Hi! I scored a 525 (100th percentile) the first time I took the MCAT in March 2026, with perfect scores on B/B and P/S, a 131 in C/P and a 130 in CARS. My unique, results-driven strategy is how I was able to achieve these scores and informs my approach as a tutor. I'm happy to say my students tend to experience a several point increase in their MCAT scores (both on official practice exams and the actual MCAT). To suit your needs, I can create and refine a study plan with you, explain difficult science concepts with easy-to-understand visuals, teach advanced test-taking strategies for both science and CARS, and hold you accountable to your study plan. My approach includes constant reflection and improvement of study strategies for efficiency, prioritizing a good understanding of material, and maximizing the learning students get out of practice problems. I've done research on the wide variety of MCAT prep resources out there and can guide you towards which will work best.

I am currently pursuing a BSA Biology degree and just finished my freshman year at UT Austin. At UT, I am a counselor for Camp Kesem, an officer for the American Medical Student Association, and I research with a lab on campus. Camp Kesem is a week-long camp for kids whose parents have cancer. I really enjoy working with kids and also volunteer at a children's hospital. I am super passionate about the sciences and math and am open to tutoring, biology, chemistry, calculus, algebra, writing, english, and psychology. I can't wait to help others learn and pursue their own personal passions! Outside of academics, I love to bake, sketch, take long walks, and play with my dogs!

I am a certified science teacher with a passion for learning

I'm a medical student at UT Southwestern. During my time at UT, I have been very involved in various clubs. I have chaired a case competition and have been the VP of External Affairs for the UT Austin student chapter of the Biomedical Engineering Society. I am an active part of Central Texas Model United Nations and have served as either Crisis Director or Crisis Staff in multiple conferences. I also volunteer every Saturday as part of my university's student chapter of Lions Club and am an active member of S.E.E.K, a program that connects students from underprivileged school districts to student engineers to get them excited about STEM and college in general.I tutor for the MCAT and draw instruction from my own experience with the test. I believe that there are best practices for studying for the test that make for more effective and efficient studying. These skills are a must when studying for a 7 and a half hour test that covers two years worth of material . In my spare time I enjoy wandering through forests, trying new restaurants, and hanging out with my friends.

I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin in May 2016 and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, with a sub-option of Neurobiology. I started tutoring 2011 while I was still attending high school, mainly for middle-school and high school math. I also have experience working with elementary school-aged children so I am used to breaking down larger concepts into more bite-sized pieces. My current focus is in the natural sciences, particularly in Biology, which most of my undergraduate education focused on. During my time as a college student, I went through many different trial-and-errors for academic success. I found that the most effective way to learn and memorize a large sum of information in a short time was to make the essential connections between the subject matters. I hope to teach in this manner, helping to connect the dots and impart these habits so that my students can continue to be successful in all academic ventures.

I am especially passionate about teaching English Language Arts and Reading because strong reading and writing skills form the foundation for learning in every subject. I enjoy helping students strengthen reading comprehension, analyze literature, and develop writing skills that allow them to clearly express their ideas. My goal is to help students move beyond simply completing assignments to truly understanding and engaging with what they read. My tutoring style is patient, encouraging, and adaptable. I believe every student learns differently, so I work to meet students where they are and break challenging concepts into manageable steps. I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence in their abilities.

I help students develop a metacognitive reflective lens for current and lifelong study. I constantly ask students to ask themselves: What am I doing well? And how can I keep doing that? I believe a strengths-based approach is best for learning. I am a board certified art and early childhood-6th grade ESL classroom teacher.

Hi there! I'm Aishah, a student at the University of Texas at Austin on the pre-med track. I know firsthand how demanding math and science courses can be, and I'm here to help you conquer them with confidence!

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'm Jay! I'm currently going to college at the University of Texas at Austin. I am majoring in fine arts and I am also in the pre-medical program. Even though I'm not done with college, I have already published papers in the field of epigenetics since my freshmen year of college. Even though I consider myself to have an expertise in languages, I decided to teach areas in the field of natural sciences because those are the subjects that I am most passionate about.I was born in Taiwan; however, even before I learned how to speak, I moved to the States. Hence, my first language was English. In third grade, my parents decided to move back to Taiwan to aid in my education of the Chinese language. Of course, learning Chinese as a second language is as difficult as it sounds. With some hard work and the right learning strategies, I was able to get a good grasp on the language and even winning third place in a national writing competition four years after moving to Taiwan.Although I learned a new language during the time I was in Taiwan, I slowly lost my English speaking, writing, and reading abilities. When I moved back to the States in 9th grade, my English was not fluent enough to be put into a classroom with the other native speakers. I worked hard, and I was able to get out of a two-year ESL (English as a Second Language) program in just a semester.I have tutored students since I was in high school in English, Chinese, mathematics, and most subjects in the area of natural sciences. I don't want to just teach my students the subjects themselves. I want to teach them my strategies and SECRETS to learning quickly and efficiently. I am easy to reach and will provide fast responses. Feel free to contact me with questions or to schedule a lesson.I can't wait to speak with you soon!

I am so excited to help you on your academic journey. I am a freshman at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biology on the pre-med track. During high school, I spent much of my time outside of school as a teacher. I taught piano lessons during my summers, taught Taekwondo to younger students for 4 years, and spent my senior year as an academic tutor. I focus on teaching math and science courses, since those are the main subjects I took in high school and am taking now as a freshman at UT. I will focus on teaching biology, chemistry, and math from pre-algebra up to AP Calculus. As a tutor, I place a high emphasis on ensuring that my students are able to understand concepts from a variety of angles. I tailor my teachings to the students' specific learning style and will focus on explaining concepts in a variety of ways until the student understands. I believe that practice will solidify the content, so practice questions will be crucial. I will also help students in improving their SAT and ACT math. I understand the importance of having a strong teacher when learning, so I will do everything I can to help every single one of my students. In my free time, I enjoy lifting weights at the gym and playing the piano.

I'm a graduate student and teacher passionate about three things: music, education, and technology.

I would love to get to know you and your learning style to allow me to aid your learning as successfully as possible!

I firmly believe in the importance of education as a foundation for the future. That being said, the way public education is handled often leaves many of those it intends to help in situations where they are struggling and cannot quite find the help they need from their teachers.Hopefully, that's where I can be of assistance. Everyone in this country deserves a quality education and when the public education system doesn't quite get the job done, tutoring is a great way to fill in the blanks or break things down and really help make complete sense of a concept or question.I will do my best to help each individual client and make sure I provide them with the tutoring style that best fits their way of learning. Everybody learns in different ways, and it's my job to find out what works best and implement that.

Hello! My name is Reigne ("rain") and I am currently a freshman at the University of Texas at Austin. I am a biology major with a focus of going to medical school. I've taken various college courses from psychology to British literature while in high school, so I understand the need to switch to different learning and studying styles with each subject. My personal strengths in subjects include math (algebra 1 & 2), biology, and writing as well. I took a total of 3 college writing courses in high school and also wrote a strong personal statement for my current university, meaning I can help with high school essays, but I can also help guide students to create a strong admissions essay that portrays who the are in a short amount of words. I truly believe that in order to teach, especially with individual students, we as tutors need to listen to the needs as well as adapt to how the students learn.

I have a PhD from Michigan State University in English with a special focus on African American Literature and History and Philosophy of Science. I have taught extensively at large research universities and small liberal arts colleges, covering wide ranges of subjects in writing, literary studies, critical theory, and philosophy of science. I am most proud of my work with STEM students, guiding them through writing classes and humanities and helping them make the most of their studies and develop transferable skills in qualitative analysis and written communication. Finding middle ground between different disciplines and skillsets has not only helped me work with a wide variety of students, but help them thrive in many different environments, as they enter industry, graduate school, medical school, or any future goals. Similarly I have a great deal of experience with GRE prep and applications more broadly, synthesizing the work students do in many disciplines into presentations of their skills and aptitudes.

I am currently a pre-med student at the University of Texas at Austin completing a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Health. Although I enjoy teaching other subjects such as math, I am most passionate about teaching science courses since that is what I am currently studying as well. Since I am completing my undergraduate degree, I still remember what it was like to be in high school. I am confident that I will be able to explain concepts in an easy way to understand, as well as give tips on how to succeed and apply to college.

As a current full-time math teacher, former professional thermal engineer, and mechanical engineer by training, I'm deeply passionate about STEM fields, math education in particular. I find math has an enriching way of looking at the world when it is understood through the correct lenses. My goal is to share my fascination with my learners, to allow them to see it for themselves, because that is the only way in which they will truly understand it.
