Hello! My name is Danny Pry and I am a Licensed Professional Mechanical Engineer. I graduated from the University of Texas in December of 2009 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I have a strong personal passion for my profession. As a result, this passion extends into math, science, physics, and all areas related to the science of Engineering. I enjoy all of these things, which means I enjoy teaching these things as well. It's important to have a tutor that loves the subject they're teaching, otherwise they won't have the drive to help their students gain an exceptional level of knowledge. I will customize my tutoring approach to each student's individual needs, and I will do whatever it takes to get the student to their desired goals. I'm very excited to have this opportunity to share my knowledge with others and turn frustration into triumph! I am available to tutor persons of all ages.

I was born in Singapore and grew up in Houston, TX. Having graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, I am continuing my education with a Master's in the same field. For years, I've helped my friends and siblings with homework for school, and they've always told me that I had a talent for teaching; I understand concepts very easily, and explanations come easy as well. The goal that I work towards for my students is to bless them holistically, both through my academic skills and through any relationship that I am able to build with them. I believe in teaching my key patterns of thinking; teach them how to fish instead of giving them a fish, as it is said. I am best at Math and Science, and any of the high-school level subjects pertaining to those fields.
I am a rising sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin. I am studying for a Bachelor of Science and Arts in chemistry with a minor in educational psychology and sociology. Previously, I was a student worker at a childcare center for kids 6 weeks (infants) to 5 years old (pre-school) to spur on their imagination and creativity. Throughout my high school years, I assisted fellow classmates and underclassmen when they had trouble on coursework. Because I recently graduated from high school, I understand the importance of AP exams to one's future. Even though most students aim to get a high score, I help students get into the mindset of learning for the sake of learning. Since most of the material shows up again in college, a student's future success is highly dependent on this 'mastery learning' mindset. I am passionate to tutor students over Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics while gaining an insight to their way of thinking and aid them in surpassing any obstacle. A college education may not be the only path to a successful life, but I believe that it is a guaranteed way for one to be able to look back on their early years and realize that all the hard work was worth it.
Hello! I'm a math tutor with a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin. During my time at UT Austin, I served as a teaching assistant for calculus courses, and I enjoy helping students build confidence and understanding in math at all levels. I tutor math across a wide range of levels, from elementary and middle school math through high school and introductory college-level calculus. I help with arithmetic, fractions, decimals, ratios, percentages, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, and calculus fundamentals. I also assist with homework support, test and quiz preparation, and reviewing class material. My teaching approach focuses on building strong fundamentals and explaining concepts step by step in a clear, practical way. I emphasize understanding why methods work rather than memorization, and I adjust my explanations to match each student's level and learning style.
Learning is one of my biggest values in life and it is important to me that everyone has the opportunity to appreciate and value learning as well.
I completed my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at MIT in 2024. As a graduate student, I was a Teaching Assistant for Thermal Fluids Engineering courses (combined Heat Transfer, Thermodynamics, and Fluid Mechanics course) for college upperclassmen in mechanical engineering and advanced manufacturing courses for undergraduate and graduate students across disciplines at MIT. I completed my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, during which I worked part-time tutoring high school students in physics, math and mechanical engineering and helped them with test preparation skills for the ACT and SAT. The primary subjects I teach are Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics, Physics: Mechanics, and various math subjects including Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, Geometry and Algebra. I can also assist in test preparation for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam and college entrance exams. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore complex concepts. My sessions focus on (1) understanding a student's current understanding of a concept, (2) identifying gaps, and (3) bridging those gaps with explanations, examples, and analogies. I believe in adapting my approach to meet individual learning styles, ensuring that each student can grasp challenging material effectively. I am motivated by the joy of seeing my students succeed and gain confidence in their abilities! Outside of tutoring, I work as a Mechanical Engineer for an EPC in Houston, Texas. I recently passed the FE exam and received my Engineer In Training Certificate.
I am a recent graduate of Arizona State University with a Bachelors of Science and Engineering (BSE) in Chemical Engineering. I was selected as the outstanding graduate for the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering and have extensive math, physics, and writing experience. I recently applied and was accepted to many top-ten PhD programs for engineering because of academic merit and personal statement writing skills. I will be attending the University of Texas at Austin in the fall.I have tutoring experience in most math subjects through the National Honors Society and have been a teaching assistant in higher-level engineering courses such as thermodynamics, chemical processing, and lab courses. As a lab teaching assistant I have a high level of experience with technical writing help. I have also been a teaching assistant for a humanities course, The Human Event. This class was focused on analyzing literature and communicating ideas through writing essays.I am a motivated student who loves helping others. I am looking forward to working with students and helping them to succeed.
I am currently a Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin. I am Pre-med and also hoping to receive my teaching certificate for composite science in the fall.Outside of academia, I enjoy rock-climbing, hiking, and music. I love taking my pup on adventures throughout the Austin area and just being outside in general.
Hello! I graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in Mathematics and a teaching certificate in 2016. And, I completed one year of graduate level studies in Biostatistics, and I am almost done with my master's in social work.I have experience tutoring 3rd grade through college level students-- mostly in mathematics, writing, ACT, and GRE. I also have experience teaching in classrooms around Austin, and was a student teacher in a 7th grade mathematics classroom.I truly love learning new things!

So, I am excited for more opportunities to tutor students in a wide range of subjects.
In my family, the importance of education has always been stressed. My parents and grandparents instilled a love of learning in me very early in life that has continued throughout my education. I hope to share that love of learning with my students with every tutoring experience. I have both a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from Auburn University and a master's chemical engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. My education at both of these institutions provided me with a strong foundation in mathematics and chemistry. I have completed extensive coursework in both those areas.While working on my master's degree, I worked as a teaching assistant, teaching courses and providing extra tutoring help for undergraduate college age and adult students. In addition to teaching at the University of Texas at Austin, I served as a mentor at the local Boys and Girls Club in Austin. TX assisting middle school and high school students in various math and science related subjects. As a tutor, I work to help students to improve their grades and gain confidence in their abilities.
