"I aim to bring an open mind, a positive fun attitude, to Varsity Tutors each day. I currently work with students on the spectrum as well as with students with learning disorders. I believe that I owe it to my students, as well as the community, to bring consistency, diligence, and warmth to my job in the hope that I can ultimately inspire and encourage such traits in the students as well. My tutoring sessions are fun and engaging. All students will leave each session one step closer to their goal...

I'm a proud Old Ag (class of 2011) and recent University of Texas Grad. I received my BA from Texas A&M in International Affairs and Spanish and my MA in Journalism. Most recently, I was a teaching assistant for undergraduate Journalism classes. I worked with students on their writing and multi-media skills. I have also taught adult ESL classes. However, my interest in education and teaching developed much earlier. My mom has been a teacher since I was a child, she and her co-worker friends taught me the importance constantly learning and growing. I am passionate about art, writing, foreign languages and history. My favorite subject area is Spanish. I am incredibly proud of my mastery of the language. I would love to help other students realize that they are capable of doing the same.

Hey there! I'm Morgyn. I just graduated with a Bachelors of Science from the Moody College of Communication at the University of Texas at Austin, which is pretty exciting! It also puts me in the same boat as a lot of my pupils, as they are getting ready for their post-high school, college life! Getting ready for the world of colleges as exciting as it is scary, but I'm here to help in a number of ways! The SAT is a test that anyone can learn. It is not just based in knowledge. It is a test that requires strategy, and if you learn the strategy, you can really rock the test. I can also help out with college essays. It can be intimidating trying to figure out what to write about, what not to write about, as this is one of the most important impressions you can give. Having a helping hand in the brainstorming and outlining phase, and maybe more importantly, the editing phase, can really boost your confidence in tackling the essay, and improve the way the essay reads. I can't wait to work with you and help take some of the stress out of this college prep life!

After spending ten years away on the East Coast, I am excited to be home in Texas getting my PhD in Middle Eastern Literature at the University of Texas at Austin. I am previously a graduate of American University in Washington DC, with a BA in International Relations. After graduating, I spent two years in Istanbul, Turkey teaching academic Reading and Writing at a preparatory program at a private university. Upon returning to the United States, I worked for a hip new language school in Brooklyn teaching Spanish, French, and Arabic. I love sharing my passion for foreign language and literature, and I seized every opportunity to take my lessons outside of the classroom with Spanish scavenger hunts, French cheese tastings, and Arabic window shopping.Besides the new cultures and experiences that learning a foreign language brings, it helps improve reading and writing skills in your native language as well. Along with Spanish, French, and Arabic, I also tutor academic Reading and Writing. I believe that English and foreign language learning reinforce one another. Whether ordering baklava in Arabic, or answering vocabulary questions on the SAT, language is all about taking a step back and understanding the communicative tools you have to work with.When not studying medieval poetry, I love to bike around Austin and work on the mini-farm in our backyard, complete with chickens!

I'm still a child at heart and I believe that I should not have to sacrifice professionalism for having a silly personality. I also believe that being a tutor involves being relatable to my students and being understanding of both failure and success. There were many times that I failed in high school and college, and I am not afraid to tell my stories to help motivate my students. I also believe in breaking down concepts as much as possible and trying my best to understand how others understand concepts. I look forward to working with you and enjoying the privilege of watching your academic improvement!

I am a dedicated and passionate teacher. My goal is to ensure that my student learns in a comfortable and productive environment. From my own experience as a student, I will ensure open communication, patience, and an efficient partnership with the student I am working with. I understand the difficulties that arise with school subjects and sometimes extra help is needed. As someone who went through that, I am motivated to make sure I can give back to students and make my own teachers proud of me. Teaching is one of the most valuable disciplines in our society and anything I can do to help share knowledge, I will do with 100% motivation and seriousness.I also want to make sure there is an open line of communication between the parents as well as their input is just as important as the student's. I want to keep them informed of their child's progress and give them feedback on a regular basis. Again, patience and communication are two of the most important key elements in order to have a successful student-teacher relationship. I look forward to this experience.
