I've been teaching French in various settings for the past four years, and I'm currently getting my PhD in French Linguistics. I've taught and tutored all ages and all kinds of students, and I particularly enjoy teaching conversational French to people preparing to travel. I believe language learning is the most fun kind of learning, and I make sure that learning French is an enjoyable experience for my students. A lot of people are intimidated by the challenge of learning a new language, even though they already learned one when they were just a baby! I've seen time and again how when languages are taught properly, learning them goes from intimidating to exciting and fun. If you're feeling challenged by French, I can give you the guidance you need to make faster progress than you thought possible.

I have spent numerous summers counseling children from ages 7-16 (both male and female) and am extremely comfortable talking to and relating to this age group. I am a great tutor because I use analogy, mnemonics, and memorization tricks. I find the easiest way to reach an understanding that will "stick" in a student's brain is in terms of something they are already passionate about.

I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Biological Sciences from Mount Holyoke College and a Master of Education from the University of Texas at Austin. As a high school teacher, I focused on Biology and Environmental Science and as a middle school teacher I focused on Physical and Earth Science. I am most passionate about tutoring science and helping students understand how to ask questions and develop procedures to answer those questions. When working with students one on one I make sure to evaluate their current knowledge and make sure there's a strong foundation on which we can build. I especially enjoy using visual and hands-on tools to help make abstract principles more concrete. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, crocheting, sewing, cooking and learning new things. Learning is a lifelong pursuit and I enjoy finding ways to make learning fun.

I am a former high school English teacher with an MFA in Writing from Pacific University Oregon, a BA in English from The University of Texas at Austin, and a lifetime teaching certification for the State of Texas in Secondary English. I spent six years in the classroom and covered all aspects of English/Language Arts. I taught grammar, reading comprehension, test-taking strategies, study skills, writing (including personal narratives, persuasive essays, research papers, creative writing, and essays for standardized tests). I also taught all forms of literature, including poetry, novels, short stories, mythology, Shakespeare, and The Odyssey. I worked in nonprofit education reform and served in an instructional leadership role for a prestigious and rigid alternative certification program. I had the opportunity to work hands-on with new teachers in both elementary and secondary grade levels for both public and charter school systems. I observed, coached, and advised new teachers in their classroom practices, lesson-plan preparations, and implementation of those lesson plans. Teaching is at the core of my unique skillset. I am a well-rounded individual with an ability to relate and connect with students and adults of all ages. This is especially due to my diverse career background, my competitive weightlifting hobby, and my wide love for reading. These things keep me grounded, focused, and dedicated. I love teaching students of all ages and helping them to succeed and to love learning. Teaching requires a unique combination of communication skills, metacognition, patience, and an appreciation for challenges. It is my job to ensure a student can relate to the material, stay focused on the lesson, and discover motivation while working towards the end goal. I want every student I work with to walk away learning something new, to feel a sense of accomplishment, and to experience increased confidence at the end of each session. Finally, I know the best teachers are the ones who understand the importance of being a student themselves. As a result, the more I teach, the more I learn about the subject. This enables me to put myself in my students' shoes and see things from their perspective while also fully understanding the adult perspectives of their teacher and parents. Thank you! Jodi

I consider myself a life-long learner and I love helping students of all ages understand concepts and maximize their learning. I love teaching and helping others.

Hi! I am a 4th year chemical engineering student at UT Austin who with a strong background in mathematics and chemistry. My tutoring style is patient, encouraging, and adaptable.

I began my career in education as a bilingual classroom teacher in the elementary grades. Later, I became a principal of many schools that had dual language programs because I knew the way in which knowing Spanish had enriched my life and I wanted other students to have that same opportunity. As a teacher, I loved teaching math to my students because it was so fun to get them involved in talking and learning about math. As a principal, I continued to work with students and even took a class period one semester to ensure that the students were successful on Texas' STAAR test. I also am able to tutor in language arts and Spanish. I have traveled extensively in Mexico and recently lived in Mexico for a year and a half. In my free time, I like to take my dog to the beach, do yoga, read, garden, or just enjoy time with friends.

With a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, I have a solid understanding of Math and Physics. I also have a patient personality, a quality that has served well in my efforts as a tutor. I find that the key to teaching a challenging subject is identifying areas of difficulty, and explaining the underlying concepts in simple language so that the student can develop a solid foundation. I am motivated by a desire to see results and I feel very satisfied when I can help someone understand a subject they thought was difficult.Even though I find the sciences interesting, I also enjoy hobbies such as drawing, painting and reading.

I have lived in Texas all my life. I’ve moved from Houston to Austin and back again. I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I pursued a degree in sound engineering and recording technology with an emphasis in Pre-Med and Pre-Law. I plan on attending an institution where I can achieve a medical doctorate simultaneously with a degree in jurisdictional prudence.Five years at the UT has taught me how to take in complicated information, process it and teach it to fellow students. In a more professional atmosphere, I have helped students achieve their academic goals through tutoring on a high school level.That being said, there is a certain thrill that I have when I see someone comprehend a subject that was previously foreign to them. I have seen the look regarding subjects from an elementary level to a collegiate level. Regardless of what subject I am working with someone on, I will strive to make sure the student understands.Personally, I have an easily approachable personality. I’m friendly and easy for students and parents to get to know and trust. It’s difficult to teach someone unless there is a foundation of trust between the two parties and my disposition makes it easy to achieve that relationship.I have many hobbies. Primarily I love to practice my violin. I have been playing since I was two years old. My parents put a stick in one hand and a cardboard box in the other till I could handle the real thing. Other hobbies include fencing, reading, swimming and skiing.

I am a licensed architect with 12 years of hands-on experience using Revit at an advanced level and in professional practice. I've used Revit throughout all phases of architectural projects, from concept design to detailed construction documents, and I understand both the technical side of the software and how it's used in real architectural workflows. As a tutor, I focus on breaking down complex concepts into clear, practical steps and adapting my teaching style to each client's experience level. Whether you're a student learning Revit for the first time, a professional looking to work more efficiently, or someone trying to understand how Revit is used in practice, my goal is to help you gain confidence and work smarter in the software.

I am a certified science teacher with a passion for learning

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 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.

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 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.

Hey there! My name is Nathaniel, and I graduated from UT Austin in 2016 with degrees in Biochemistry and Psychology. I've had over 8 years of tutoring experience in different areas, primarily in mathematics and the natural sciences. I began tutoring my mom's friend's children in algebra 1, algebra 2, and geometry while still in middle school. This is the point at which I realized the reward in helping others learn, inciting my passion for tutoring. I went on to continue assisting classmates in high school, ultimately tutoring around a dozen different students while in college. In fact, I even served as a teaching assistant my junior year, helping grade assignments.In my free time, I like to play sports, lift weights, and volunteer. I ultimately plan on attending medical school, aiming for admission in 2018. I'm open to many different physician specialties, but have found psychiatry, neurosurgery, and orthopedics the most interesting so far. Other fun facts about me are that I've been skydiving 25 times (certified), biked from Austin, Texas to Anchorage Alaska to raise money and awareness for cancer research as part of the UT organization Texas 4000, and worked at a haunted house this past October.My teaching approach is different from others in that I do not wish to instruct students as if they were in a class, but by putting it in terms that would resonate most with them. Thus, I strive to not only further your children's insight in a given subject area, but to also allow them to actually appreciate different subjects and how they relate to the world around them. I look forward to working with your child, and will hopefully hear from you soon!

I am an incoming school psychology doctoral candidate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. As an undergraduate, I attended a prestigious honors program at the University of Texas at Austin.In essence, I have years of experience tutoring and teaching languages, writing, testing strategies, and other various subjects for students from elementary through college. Additionally, I am well-versed in university admissions for both graduate and undergraduate programs, and I can offer consulting on how to develop applications.I believe in making learning relatable and fun; rather than lecture my students, I design engaging and entertaining lessons, exercises, and even games for them. Understanding of material comes from active participation.

I believe that all students can learn and that my calling is to help others connect new knowledge and learning to their existing schema of understanding through positively encouraging their consistent effort over time. Mistakes are part of the learning process and should only be seen as opportunities to improve upon our understanding of any given topic or subject.

I am currently a freshman at the University of Texas at Austin and pursuing a Bachelor's in Computer Science. In my free time, I enjoy coding for quantum computers and especially love to explore interesting math and science concepts. I have had 3 years of prior experience teaching groups of students as a part of the North South Foundation, with my expertise being in the sciences. My goal as a tutor is to not only to help my students learn a new subject but rather gain a fundamental understanding of the concept in an intuitive way. This has been my goal since I began high school due to many of the classes being taught as a place to just memorize facts and formulas - but I wanted to actually know the background behind them and see where things were derived from. I knew that there were others out there who had a similar mindset so I sought out ways in which I could teach subjects that I was passionate about to other students like myself.

I was born and raised in Mexico, and I have lived in the US since I was 18. I graduated with a BA in history and a minor in Arabic from BYU in 2009. I later went back and took about 15 credits of undergraduate math and statistics. In 2012 I graduated with a Master's of Public Affairs and Applied Statistics from the University of Texas at Austin.My Spanish upbringing has opened some doors to help Spanish learners. During my undergraduate years, I taught Spanish to pay for school. I would tutor students who wanted a down to earth explanation of a Spanish grammatical concept or who simply wanted to practice conversation. I later became an approved court interpreter in Utah and worked on a few arraignments and one trial.I currently work during for a research company writing statistical programs to analyze data. The way I put it is: "I run regressions for a living." I like statistics and I like intuitive interpretations of economic and statistical concepts. I have tutored high school and college students taking their probability, hypothesis testing, regression, and econometric classes. At UT Austin, I took more than 18 credits of graduate statistics and RA'd for an economist there.I love helping people understand concepts. I feed of the faces of students when they get it.

When I tutor, I hope to impart more than knowledge. I strive to teach new and efficient ways of thinking, as time is an invaluable part of our lives, be it personal or work related. Over the course of over 9 years, I have tutored children and adults, learning how to adapt to each learning style. As long as the student who comes for help is dedicated, I believe I can transform dedication into success.
