Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at Austin

I am currently a 3rd-year Nutrition major at the University of Texas at Austin with a certificate in Pre-Health Professions. Upon graduating, I am planning on attending medical school to become a physician. Prior to college, I held a job as a primary school instructor at Kumon, where I tutored students aged 5-13 in fundamental mathematics and English. I believe that education is one of the most important proponents of a successful future career, and especially, the foundations of any educational work are imperative to understand and grasp. Growing up, I have had extensive tutoring myself in SAT and ACT, so I am able to bring multiple perspectives on topics other than elementary and middle school math and English. I believe that the student is only as good as the teacher teaches, so I perform my absolute best to be a catalyst for the future generation.

I am a Chemical Engineering graduate from The University of Texas at Austin. Since graduation in December 2015, I have spent several months preparing for a successfully completing the Fundamentals of Engineering (Chemical) exam, which now allows me to hold my Engineer in Training (EIT) certification. I have also spent the months following graduation finishing my 4 year commitment as a volunteer YoungLife leader, which is a Christian mentorship organization geared towards high school students. I am thankful for these past few years around high school students in the many settings we've had because it has allowed me to connect and relate to them better. I am very passionate about making a difference in peoples lives, especially high school students because after high school is when bigger life decisions are made in which I hope to contribute a positive influence. I believe the subjects that I can best contribute to a student are a broad range of math and science, due to the nature of my degree and interest. I will be especially helpful in Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus subjects. In my free time, I like to be outside, go fishing, hiking, exercise, play Ultimate Frisbee, and take a seasonal snowboarding trip. But sometimes I just need that occasional lazy Saturday of books and movies.

I am a fourth year student at the University of Texas at Austin. I am studying Public Health and Business. I have taught students in Math, Science, and Reading previously. I understand what it takes for an individual to gain knowledge and learn to be successful in the future.

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 like to learn, and I am confident that I can help you learn. I hold a PhD in Computer Science and I also have a Masters in English.I have taught first and second year Computer Science at university, along with College Freshman English.

I am a biology graduate from the University of Texas at Austin and after having worked for two years, realized I missed the joy of being a student! I am currently studying to take my MCAT in January and look forward to sharing all of my science knowledge through tutoring. I look forward to sharing the tips and tricks that helped me succeed in high school and college.

I want to help students achieve their personal and professional goals by helping them learn any level math. I want to remove any apprehension towards math and make it relevant through real life examples.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Masters of Education (Special Education; Learning and Behavior Disorders) from The University of Texas. I received my Doctorate in Education from The University of Washington. I have public and private school experience teaching students with learning disabilities and emotional disorders in upper elementary grades and middle school. In addition, I taught 5th grade for two years. I had the opportunity to enter a doctoral program in education at the University of Washington when my family moved to Seattle. I worked as a Teaching and Research Assistant while completing my degree. Upon finishing, I remained at UW for three years to direct a research project in special education and to direct their teacher education program in Behavior Disorders. I taught graduate level courses in two fields, learning disabilities and behavior disorders. Our family made the decision to return to Texas in 1991 when my husband and I both had new job opportunities. I was a Professor of Special Education at TCU in Fort Worth from 1991 until I recently retired. My experiences at TCU included directing the graduate and undergraduate programs in special education. Because students graduating from our program earned dual certification in general and special education, I was heavily involved in teaching college students who were planning to be elementary and middle school teachers. TCU has two laboratory schools, Starpoint School (for elementary students with learning disabilities) and KinderFrogs School, an early intervention program for young children with Down Syndrome and other developmental delays. I was on the Advisory Board for both schools and worked closely with the teachers, assisting as needed. My experiences go beyond the rather bland description of what is written above. I am passionate about teaching children and youth and advocating for their needs. Too often the focus is placed on student deficits rather than student strengths. This leads to a cycle of defeat within the child. Teaching requires meeting student needs. My strength is identifying students' strengths and needs and to teach accordingly. I have over 30 years experience in developing successful learning strategies that assist students in their learning. I am in my 60s and I am still excited about meeting and teaching students. Every student has unique ways of learning. I believe that it is important to establish a strong teaching/learning relationship with each student based on their uniqueness. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I currently live on a barrier island off the coast of South Carolina with my black lab. I volunteer for several local charities and for Meals on Wheels. I love my life!

I love working with students to find the best way they learn, topics they are passionate about in subjects they struggle with, and expanding my own experience in teaching. Excited for us to learn together!

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin, where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Economics and minored in Mathematics. Upon graduating, I moved to Dallas to begin working as a financial professional with Prudential, a career that allows me to combine my love for problem solving and directly interacting with individuals to help improve their lives. I grew up with a mom who teaches middle school math and she instilled a love for both the subject and helping others that has stuck with me to this day. During my time in college I gained experience tutoring both middle and high school math and economics, along with college level calculus. I enjoy getting to help students overcome struggles in their work, and have found that it is often encouragement and direction most needed to help them succeed. I firmly believe that education is necessary for improving the quality of ones life and enjoy getting to help others in a way that will impact the rest of their lives. During my spare time, I enjoy reading on a wide variety of subjects and genres, along with running, spending time outdoors, and watching basketball, baseball, and football.

Hello! I just graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Astronomy. I have been a teaching assistant at my university for the past 2 years, and I enjoy teaching and meeting new people. I also have experience tutoring one-on-one. I am very patient and encouraging. I think it is possible to make physics, math, and astronomy engaging to you even if you find it hard or tedious. I can't wait to meet you!

Having worked my way up from a small four year college in South Texas to a the top doctoral program in Legal Psychology in the U.S., Psychology and Law at the Graduate Center in NYC, I feel I have a good grasp at what one needs to focus on and train in order to rise the ranks to reach the goals they would like to achieve. That being said, that all starts in the graduate school application. If I can help a student navigate the application process through test-taking tutoring or emotional/social support, I will feel like I have paid it forward to the countless internet services and human beings alike that have helped me get to where I am now. I have a year experience of teaching college students not only the subject matter of Psychology, but the life lessons one learns in college and how to fine-tune skills in order to make them most successful in their individual career endeavors.

I am currently attending the University of Texas at Austin, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Infectious diseases. My goal is to help people better understand basic biology and perhaps attend medical school in the near future.

I am a current middle school reading and writing teacher. I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, where I studied English and was a Plan II Honors student. I have been passionate about humanities and English language arts since I myself was in middle school. I took AP English in high school, as well as European History and Economics. I also served as the editor for my school newspaper in both high school and college. I absolutely love reading, writing, and thinking/talking about books. Helping students find their own passions is of great importance to me.

I am a current undergraduate student studying economics at the University of Texas. My prior teaching experience is with students aged 6-15. I've been a teaching assistant at various museum summer programs but most recently, I was president of a program that taught underprivileged middle school students debate skills and techniques.I tutor various subjects but excel in teaching debate, history, and all things reading/writing. When it comes to reading/writing, I enjoy helping students draft and edit essays as well as tutoring students in the reading section of the SAT.My teaching philosophy is centered around applying simple principles to complicated problems. Whether it's a math concept or a reading comprehension question, that philosophy is often the solution.Outside of teaching, I enjoy mountain biking and reading. I am currently reading Shgun by James Clavell.

I have always had a passion for learning as well as passing what I have learned on to others. I worked as a teaching assistant and as a senior preceptor for different classes 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 question as many times as necessary . I also include a lot of examples and encourage the students to come up with their own example questions when I tutor.

I am a second year student in law school in Austin, TX. I intend to practice corporate transactional law in Houston.I am looking forward to helping you reach your academic and personal/professional goals. As an undergraduate, I studied Finance, Economics, and French -- so I am very familiar with the struggle of just trying to get ahead in a manageable amount of time. Together, we will help you succeed in your class, or on your upcoming exam, or just in the skillset you are trying to develop. I'm happy to work with you at the pace you need, and look forward to challenging you along the way!I hope you will give me a chance to achieve your goals. I am fluent in English, French, and Arabic, and am also happy to tutor in those languages as well.Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

I am a career for-profit and not-for-profit CFO who enjoys helping others learn and grow in their chosen field of study and future professions. I have also taught and tutored GMAT and LSAT courses for a leading test preparation company. I have a BBA in Finance from the University of Texas at Austin and an MBA from Harvard Business School. I have used both Finance and Accounting extensively in my career and enjoy using my deep knowledge of these subjects to help lead organizations. I am also a lifelong learner and am currently completing the few remaining requirements I have for CPA certification. If you think I can help, I would love to set up an introductory call. Best of luck with your studies and all of your future endeavors!

I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Physics degree (Bachelor of Science) in May 2015. I currently live near campus and look forward to tutoring students in the area. I love teaching and helping with math and physics! I also have a strong writing background that comes from independently-publishing a novel, so I am happy to help you with the flow and format of your writing assignments. (I m also a bit of a grammar Nazi.)Interesting things about me: I researched solar cell development in Germany for a summer (ich spreche ein bischen Deutsch), was a quarterfinalist for the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award (2013), and I collect bookmarks. :)

I am a second-year graduate student in the Steve Hicks School of Social Work program at the University of Texas at Austin pursing a Masters in Social Work. I also attended UT-Austin for my undergraduate years, where I majored in psychology, minored in sociology, and received a creative writing certificate. I have worked at the University Writing Center at UT for the past year, where I tutor undergraduates in writing skills. I review papers in all subjects and of all types, including research papers, lab reports, persuasive essays, creative writing, and post-undergraduate school applications. I also worked with Communities in Schools at a Title I elementary school on writing, grammar, reading, and comprehension. Writing and English are my favorite subjects to tutor because I love to see the satisfaction on a student's face when they can finally take all of the puzzle pieces of ideas floating around in their head and put them in a tangible form. Getting those thoughts on paper proves to a student that their words are worth being read and heard. My teaching philosophy is taking a collaborative, non-directive, and non-evaluative approach in helping my students cultivate writing skills and confidence that they will have for future writing endeavors. Outside of academia, I love movies, theater, playwriting, basketball, and anything outside!

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 received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Philosophy at The University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX. I then went on to get a Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin. I worked as a social worker for the State of Oklahoma Department of Human Services for ten years. I also worked with mentally ill inmates at the Mabel Basset Correctional Center for Women. I had to take early retirement due to health problems but what looked like a tragedy at the time, has allowed me to follow my childhood dream of being an author. I have sent my first crime novel, A Massage to Die For, to an editor. Before I turned to fiction, I published in several professional, psychological journals including the Journal of the Oklahoma Criminal Justice Research Consortium and the Southwestern Psychological Association. I want to be able to share the knowledge I have gained during this journey with my students.

I am a graduate from the University of Texas at Austin in Petroleum Engineering. I am very passionate about teaching and would like to complete my teaching certificate in the near future. I have a lot of experience tutoring students in math classes ranging from middle school math to advanced math topics such as calculus. I don't see tutoring as a means to finding an answer, but rather an opportunity to learn and visualize the problems and learn more about the problems themselves. I have always enjoyed math because it is one of the only subjects that you can always prove your answer to be correct with concrete evidence. I am a very patient person and won't give up on my students because I know that everyone is capable of solving the problems they are given. It is a matter of how the students will learn it and I believe that if the students don't understand a problem, I am not doing a good enough job and will constantly adjust my teaching style until my student masters their subjects. In my free time I love doing a variety of different activities. One of my favorite things is food! I love cooking and baking different items. I also love hiking outdoors and playing different sports. I also love music! Whenever there is a music festival near me, I will definitely attend! And when music festivals aren't around, you'll definitely find me singing along at a karaoke place with my friends. Lastly, I am in love with movies. I love all genres and enjoy watching how beautiful the motion pictures turn out.

I have 3+ years of private tutoring experience and I also worked at a charter school. I was able to help ALL of my students improve their grades.I am very passionate about education and I know in depth about how people learn and the different learning theories. I focus more on my student's learning than me teaching. I am very flexible, open minded, and patient. Let me know how I can help you.

I recently graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in geology and a certificate in business Spanish. I am a life-long learner and natural teacher. I come from a family of educators, and I worked as a tutor throughout all of high school and college. I have experience with students of all ages and have most recent teaching experience in math and Spanish. I believe learning should be enjoyable; I am passionate about finding creative and effective ways to learn. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy reading, being outside, and going on walks with my dog.

Hi hello! My name is Phoebe and I earned my BSA from The University of Texas at Austin and my MS from the University of North Texas Health Science Center. I'm currently working towards applying to medical school and a good part of that decision is because I love the STEM field so much. Throughout my education, I've personally always learned best by teaching my friends and classmates. Science and math is tough - but I wouldn't be where I am today without the help of teachers and peers who have patiently helped me understand the material. My goal is not only to help you learn the material, but equip you with the tools you need so you can be successful in future classes!

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 was born and raised in France. When I was 13, my parents, siblings and I moved to the U.S.(Austin, TX). It was quite a culture shock! It is 20+ years later now, and I am so glad we moved! I visit my extended family in France as often as I can, but I am so happy to call Austin home. I still speak French with my immediate family (it is my first language), and try to teach it to my children. I love sharing the language and culture with others. I have experience and am comfortable working with all ages. I try to make sessions as laid-back, fun and engaging as possible.When I am not busy being a mom to my two girls, I enjoy reading, traveling, running and recently started participating in triathlons.I look forward to hearing from you!

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.

Hello. I'm Sam. recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelors Degree in Economics. I have minors in both Mathematics and Electrical Engineering. I am taking time off from academics and am filling that time with tutoring.

I am a junior at UT Austin studying computational biology on the pre-med track. I currently work as a teaching assistant for Introductory Biology Lab. I have also worked as a research assistant practicing molecular cloning of various diseases. My GPA is a 3.98 and I have extensive experience with any topic related to biology, chemistry, or lower level math. I made a perfect score on the SAT math portion, so I can also tutor in that area. In general, I love to help students discover their own interests and succeed academically!

I currently am a Senior at the University of Texas at Austin and am working towards a Bachelor of Science and Arts degree in Biology. I completed the full IB program when I was in high school. I took higher-level Biology, Chemistry, and Business and Management, and standard-level French, Math, and English. I have taken many science and mathematics courses during my time in college so I really enjoy tutoring in either of these areas.I have been with Varsity Tutors for a couple years now, so I am very familiar with the platform. I also spent 3 years tutoring kids in entry-level English and Math at the Cure Ethiopia Children's hospital, so I have a few years of tutoring experience. While I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am the most passionate about math, sciences, and writing. I am very patient and have had experience working with individuals across very different levels of education and backgrounds. I love traveling, photography, tennis, and volleyball.

Hi! I'm Will, I am a sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin. I am a Biology major and plan on attending Med school. Math and Science have always been my strong suits, as well as being more enjoyable than other subjects, so I am more than happy to help out. I am patient and like laughing mistakes off, everyone makes them. I do not mind explaining concepts in all different ways and manners to help you understand them, some of them can be difficult. My main goal is helping you to understand the concepts and material so you can apply it to any problem/situation.

I am a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's Degree in both Human Biology and Psychology. I think it's important to understand that each individual is a different type of learner and therefore it's important to cater to each person's individual learning style. I will try my best to help students grasp concepts in a way that helps them understand the concepts better and will help them succeed. I know it can be hard for students to get individual help in school so I will try my best to help them using the best of my abilities and give them the individual attention that they need. I would make sure I understand the best way each student learns and then do my best to teach them from that point of view.

Hello! My name is Anagha, and I recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Public Health on the pre-medical pathway. I have over 6 years of tutoring experience, starting in high school where I tutored elementary, middle, and high school students, and continuing in college as a peer tutor at UT and through Varsity Tutors.I specialize in math and science, where I enjoy helping students build confidence and break down challenging concepts into clear, manageable steps. I also support students with reading and writing, whether that's improving comprehension or guiding the writing and revision of essays.What I love most about tutoring is seeing students grow more confident in their abilities and reach their academic goals. I tailor my approach to each student's learning style and believe that with the right support, every student can succeed.Whether your child needs help catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead, I'm excited to provide patient, encouraging, and personalized guidance to help them thrive.

A native Texan, I grew up in Houston and attended St. Thomas High School before moving to Austin to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at The University of Texas at Austin. I graduated from UT just this May with special departmental honors in math for my 20+ hours of graduate level coursework and senior research thesis. Currently, I am a first year pure math PhD student at Boston College.While at UT I worked for three years as an undergraduate teaching assistant and grader for multiple classes, including calculus (I, II, and III) and discrete math. There are few things more enjoyable than being of service to students trying to learn difficult material and seeing the gears in their heads start to turn as their confidence builds. I truly love studying math, and I work hard to communicate the beauty in math to all of my students.Having studied math at an advanced level for a few years now, I have a privileged insight into the rich structure of mathematics. I have worked in fields that are as difficult compared to calculus as calculus is compared to basic multiplication tables. As a result, I have developed a mastery of material from high school and early college level math, and I have spent the last three years practicing the way I communicate math so that assignments stop seeming like lifeless and disconnected assortments of problems. Math is easier to learn when you see it as something to get excited about.Whether you're struggling with a course, looking to get ahead, or want to review for standardized exams, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help you start working toward your goals!

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.

My goal is to help you become confident and comfortable using mathematical concepts by understanding them really well. In a dialogue, we will dig deep into the topic you have problems with or want to understand better. We will start by working with any materials and questions that you bring. I have experience TA-ing and tutoring various math courses (calculus, linear algebra, probability...) and teaching computational finance as a lecturer.

I am a senior at the University of Texas at Austin studying Civil Engineering. I am graduating in May 2022, and I will be starting at Boston Consulting Group in Fall 2022. I really enjoy tutoring students, and I have had a multitude of tutoring experiences in the past, from teaching violin and music to teaching younger students in areas of help they need. I attended a Math and Science Academy for High School, and throughout high school, I tutored in many AP subjects as well as SAT tutoring. I tutor a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate about Math and Science topics. I really enjoy talking to students, and I am a firm believer of teaching students in their own individual way that most fits their learning style. I am committed to teaching your student, and I am excited to get to meet you!

I wish to carry on the legacy of the many great teachers that equipped my mind to discern greater truth for itself by aiming to pass on my passion and love of learning to as many students as possible.With that said, the greatest reward of my classical education has been not what I have learned but how it made me feel and where that feeling has lead me to a more complete and fulfilling existence.Within the context of the rapidly changing modern world, many lessons of the past are being foolishly forgotten that can serve us genuine good. Among the worst of such losses is, in my opinion, the richness of our connections to each other and to our world at large. However, what is remembered upon reading the classics is that the human mind creates its own posture, for the ancients were as brilliant as us but in different ways. They lived lives with the same fears and ambitions that drive us today and the same capacity for emotion and intelligence.If I can teach students to understand this more fully, I believe they may become better humans within our society and develop a heightened sensitivity to each other that will further their own learning
