Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at Austin

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.

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 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.

More than twenty years ago, the year I was born, my father underwent a coronary artery bypass graft procedure and almost died due to unforeseen complications. My mother would tell me how lucky I was to have even met him. He has a twenty-five year history of poorly controlled diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia and throughout my childhood I witnessed firsthand the suffering that these comorbidities caused himand in effect, our family. I accompanied my father numerous times to the emergency department and doctor appointments then, and continue to do so. I called 911 and then rode along with him in ambulances as he complained of severe chest pain and dyspnea. Witnessing my dad being brought out on stretchers countless times made me feel helpless but motivated to investigate the intricacies of his diseases. In medical school, my curiosity for understanding these disease processes only grew as I learned about the complex interplay between comorbid pathologies. As an internal medicine resident, I will further dedicate my career to the physiology, treatment and management of patients suffering from these distressing, and often overlooked illnesses.During my internal medicine core and sub-internship, we dealt with patients with multiple comorbidities and non-communicable, chronic disease. For example, there was a fifty five year old African American man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension and, chronic renal failure on hemodialysis who presented with shortness of breath and bilateral leg edema. I noticed the patient guarding the upper right side of his abdomen; I performed a complete physical exam on him, but focused on that. He had upper right quadrant tenderness on palpation, which I reported to my attending. I suggested that it could be congestive hepatopathy due to right-sided heart failure along with his bilateral leg edema, and that we should order an echocardiogram to evaluate his heart further. This showed that his ejection fraction had reduced significantly from his prior records to less than 35%. From speaking to the patient further, I gathered he had been skipping his furosemide dose because of increased urination, which he had not admitted to until now. As a team, we formulated a plan that involved patient education, optimizing his medication, and the placement of an AICD. I felt a sense of gratification, knowing my thorough physical exam, detailed history and, education on AICD usage helped improve this patient's management and quality of life. Experiencing how the interactions between these disease processes manifested in this patient ensures that me that there will always be more to learn. I experienced also, how important interactions with specialists such as endocrine, cardiology, pulmonology and nephology were, as they added depth to management to the patient. For me, he was a patient who typified my experience in internal medicine.In addition, I find internal medicine to be a very emotionally rewarding field, because of the moments of comfort a physician can provide, in critical moments. I recall, for example the hospital course of a sixty-year-old Caucasian female patient with cervical cancer and metastasis to the brain. She was refusing to eat and had no family to support her during this time. The attending, residents and nurses all had tried to convince her to eat but had little success. I imagined myself in her shoes and started to empathize some of the feelings she must have been experiencing. I sat by her bed, just to keep her company. After two hours, she eventually opened up to me and confessed that she was scared she was going to die and had given up on life. I began to spoon feed her banana pudding and I still remember her smile to this very day. Though I will have different availabilities with regard to time, as a resident, I know that I will strive to create the emotional space for such connections with patients in residency and afterwards.With the knowledge and experience I gain from your residency program, one day I hope to become a hospitalist and then pursue a fellowship in cardiology or endocrinology, so I may provide this specialized care that patients in urban areas so desperately need. I plan to take an active role in research during residency, specifically in cardiovascular health, and find a program that supports such endeavors with state of the art facilities. I also am interested in program with protected didactic time so that I may continue to advance my knowledge and develop my clinical skills in a structured manner. Having rotated at an urban hospital New York, I look forward to working in a similarly culturally diverse environment to provide the finest patient centered care, and learn the most from cases, while also serving an underserved, and marginalized population. It is with this vision I hope to be a great addition to your residency program and be given an opportunity to manage complicated patients, where once I was merely watching diseases progress in my father.

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. Tutoring students is a very rewarding experience for me and through teaching, I hope to inspire students to become the next generation of engineers, scientists, and other professionals.Please contact me for any questions or for more information about the subjects I am available for and for scheduling.

I began tutoring as a sophomore in high school, helping younger students in the neighborhood. I have tutored Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2. I also was a PAL for elementary and middle school students, meaning I would travel to their schools and take them out of class to help them with the subjects they struggled with.Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing basketball and soccer with my friends, reading, writing, and watching sports. I will begin college this fall at The University of Texas at Austin, with a major in Biology. I plan to continue on to medical school, and ultimately become a doctor.

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.

As a sophomore studying Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, I am incredibly passionate about STEM and medicine. This journey has been incredibly rewarding, not just in terms of the knowledge I've gained, but also in the opportunities I've had to share this knowledge with others. Teaching has become a cornerstone of my learning process. I've discovered that explaining complex concepts to my peers helps them and solidifies my understanding in a way nothing else has. I believe that every student deserves access to a wealth of resources to support their learning. However, I also recognize that true learning happens when students take responsibility for their education. It's about being curious, asking questions, and seeking out answers. My goal is to create an environment where resources are abundant and accessible, but where students are also encouraged to take an active role in their own learning journey.

Math problems can be really hard, I know this well! I will help you to understand math problems in a step-by-step way, so that you not only complete your assignments, but also come away with a deeper understanding of the material.

Teaching has been a huge part of me since I was young. I have worked with all types of students, including those with ADHD. I taught emergency preparedness at elementary schools and even got the fire department to give a tour of their fire truck for the kids! I continued to be a teaching assistant in biology during college to help with lectures and review concepts in smaller groups. In my career, I worked a lot in outreach and educating the public about different health conditions and steps they can take to empower themselves. I am excited to meet all the wonderful students to come.

Typically, I would deliver a short presentation to the class on the theories, and then the tasks they needed to complete. I am always available during the lab sessions, and I tend to lead the students to the right track so that they were able to figure out the solution by themselves instead of me directly telling them. Another tutoring experience I had was helping Grade 9 students to improve their understanding in the subject Science. All sessions were delivered online, and I made sure to share the video recording and all the notes we took along the way with the students. I was also always available for the student to ask me homework questions even during off-hours. In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing, and drawing. Along with my fluency in Chinese Mandarin, I further honed my writing skill when I freelanced with a local media outlet to do news reporting, where I produced all the original copies in Chinese and then I translated to English. In addition, I developed another interest last year in web3, where I was and still remain as an active member in the web3/crypto community. I have always enjoyed sharing what I know with people who need support, let that be technical knowledge, career guidance, or soft skills (mock interview, resume rapid-review, etc.). To me, education is continuous process, and we can always learn something from each other.

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 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.
