Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at Austin

I have worked as a teaching assistant since 2015, helping students struggling in class get the extra push they need to succeed. I have also tutored students at my school and volunteered at my local Boys and Girls club. I have tutored students in subjects ranging from Calculus to Chemistry to Language Arts, but I specialize in teaching Math and Science.As a tutor, I love to see students improve themselves, and I strive to create those "aha!" moments when everything begins to make sense. When I teach, I find it is most effective to find out how a student approaches a problem and rationalize it in their mind. Although memorization is necessary at times, it is better to learn how a concept is derived from other ideas to truly make the knowledge your own.

Hello! I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Texas at Austin studying Computational Science. I graduated cum laude from Cornell University with a B.Sc. in Computer Science.My doctoral studies fall at the overlap of mathematics, computer science, and physics. I enjoy coding software that adheres to professional coding standards but deals with solving complex physical problems. I have half a decade of experience coding in C/C++/Java. Some of the extensive projects that I have built include a microkernel in C, a puzzle video game in C++ and a compiler in Java.Over the past few years, I have tutored students in senior level college computer science courses in operating systems and computer vision. I enjoy teaching and I look forward to working with students who not only want to master the course material but also want to learn more about the subject.

I earned a BA in English from the University of Texas at Austin. I then taught High School Social Studies, English, and Math (Algebra I & II & Geometry). Although most of my teaching experience has been in Social Studies (and my favorite class to teach was AP Government), I am most passionate about tutoring Math. I love building a student's confidence to the point where he or she no longer needs a tutor. In my spare time I enjoy working around our small farm.

I believe that everyone deserves to be helped to the best of their abilities. I struggled in school, and thanks to the help of a strong community they helped me succeed. I'd like to be part of that community for any person.

Outside of academics, I enjoy playing volleyball, watching movies, going shopping, and spending time with my family. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

As a passionate aerospace engineering student at The University of Texas at Austin, I bring over three years of tutoring experience, specializing in mathematics, particularly linear algebra, and foundational concepts in algebra and geometry. My approach to tutoring is student-centered; I believe in tailoring my methods to meet individual learning needs, fostering an environment where students feel comfortable and engaged. I utilize various strategies, including interactive problem-solving and peer-teaching techniques, to enhance understanding and retention. I am motivated by the opportunity to inspire and empower students to achieve their academic goals. In addition to my academic pursuits, I enjoy exploring chemistry and history, which enrich my tutoring sessions and provide a broader context to the subjects I teach.

I am a fourth year undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering Honors with minors in Computer Science and Business. I have always been passionate about helping others by continuing the chain of mentorship that I received and helping others avoid the same mistakes I once made. Prior to University, I spent my spare time spreading environmental awareness to elementary students, coaching middle school basketball teams, and guiding nascent MathCounts and Science Olympiad programs. Since arriving at UT Austin, I have had the privilege of teaching a classroom of middle schoolers for a semester as part of the UTeach Outreach program. I am most passionate about Math, Computer Science, and the college application process. In my experience helping struggling students prepare their applications for admissions, I have had the most fun reviewing essays and revising resumes. I also enjoy sharing tips and tricks to solving any Standardized Math Test questions! I truly believe education is the key to a better future, and it cannot be taken for granted because of the unequal opportunities that others face. Outside of academia, I enjoy working out, hiking, playing sports with my friends, and showing people new songs!

I'm a physician.I am a tutor who is devoted to continue working with students to help them learn to learn on their own. I want my students to gain academic confidence and the skills necessary to master any subject, using tutors as a tool to help them grow and develop in the scholarly world.My experience working with students is diverse. I have been a TA for three years, working with students in Introductory Biology, Biostatistics and Evolutionary Biology. Furthermore, I have worked as a tutor for students from primary school to college, and I have worked as a test prep instructor for a major test prep company.As a student, I have learned from amazing professors at both UTSA and UT Austin and have earned a BSA in Biology with two minors: psychology and business. I graduated in December of 2015 with High Honors.A core component of my education has been taught through research; thousands of hours of my time have been spent in research labs.Although my primary focus as a tutor lies in the sciences, I have broad experiences that allow me to work with students who need help in many different subjects, from social sciences to English, math, and test preparation.

I'm a financial professional working in private equity and have strong math, financial, accounting, economics, and science background. My undergrad was in engineering so I am well-versed in a wide variety of topics and look forward to helping you!

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 joined Varsity Tutors to be part of the educational journey for students. I believe that any student can become a grade A student with help of a tutor or a mentor. Through my tutoring experiences, I have been able to see students go from failing classes to understanding and discovering new concepts in classes. I am able to relate to students, as I was a student myself. Education is a key element for success later in life and if we do not provide a strong backbone for our kids, they will not be able to achieve the goals or hopes they have. A classroom setting might not be enough for a child and with the extra tutoring they are able to get the confidence they need to excel on tests and in classrooms. My tutoring methods are unique because I am able to connect with students via sports, video games, running, and other hobbies.

I am from the great city of Austin, Texas, and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Before attending UNTHSC, I worked as a Certified Dermatology Tech as part of Dr. Bryan Townsends' Mohs Surgery Team, while waiting tables at Matt's El Rancho and Chuy's Tex-Mex restaurants. I will be attending TCOM next year. As a CAP tutor and fellow classmate, I hope to promote a collaborative and supportive environment for students in all programs at UNTHSC. I am excited for the opportunity to meet and connect with students on the Varsity system, vowing to do my best to ensure a higher level of content understanding and serve as a positive and motivational force for students.

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.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Bilingual Education. I have endorsements for Spanish, TESOL/ESL/Bilingual Education, and Literacy/Reading Specialist on my teaching licenses. I have taught Spanish, Humanities, Adult Basic Education, GED, Reading, Grammar, and ELL/ESL. I have taught children and adults and really enjoy watching a person's confidence grow along with their knowledge.

Hi, I'm Mingyan, a physics and computation major at UT Austin with a 3.97 GPA. I love tutoring because I enjoy making tough physics, math, and programming concepts clear and approachable. My teaching philosophy is patient and practical. I break ideas down step-by-step using examples from my medical imaging research, ODE modeling, and robotics. I've helped classmates and teammates succeed in these subjects. Seeing them gain confidence is what makes me passionate about tutoring.

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!

My name is Alex and I am a proud and recent graduate of Rice University where I received my Master's in Environmental Science with a heavy focus on Environmental Statistics. Before this I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Bachelor's degrees in Geography and Humanities.Having been exposed to an eclectic background of liberal arts and hard science I am comfortable tutoring across a broad range of subjects and encourage students to see the inherent connections between their work and real-world applications.Despite my technical background, I am a person who would much rather contemplate the words in a good book rather than the letters of a differential equation. However, my interest in studying the natural world has caused me to suffer through more math classes than I care to count. As a result, I am well-equipped to help 'math-shy' students understand, appreciate, and flourish in a subject that they may have previously disliked.I believe in forging a relationship between the student and the subject matter with the idea being able to answer the question "when will I ever need to know this?" is the first step to understanding.Currently, I live in Houston with my bride, Nathalie, and our great big black lab, affectionately know as "The Bear". I love being out-of-doors in any capacity and am an avid soccer-player, swimmer, and cyclist.

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. :)

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!

I enjoy working with all levels of students. I listen and support students so they can be successful. I bring over 30 years of experience to training and teaching, on many subjects. I enjoy helping with English writing and reading; professional training, literature, social studies, and public administration.

I am currently a Teaching Assistant for a Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 class at the University of Texas, where I work with smaller and larger groups of students to correct misconceptions and deepen understanding. Before moving to the area, I was a full-time math teacher in Boston for 4 years, where I was in charge of writing and developing differentiated lesson plans based on students' learning types and abilities, while creating an atmosphere that is conducive to student learning and fosters confidence both socially and mathematically. I am able to transfer this to one-on-one tutoring sessions and find the best way to help my students reach their full potential. I am confident in my mathematical knowledge, but even more so in my ability to use hands-on lessons to create an untapped love of mathematics.

I'm a medical student at UT Southwestern. During my time at UT, I have been very involved in various clubs. I have chaired a case competition and have been the VP of External Affairs for the UT Austin student chapter of the Biomedical Engineering Society. I am an active part of Central Texas Model United Nations and have served as either Crisis Director or Crisis Staff in multiple conferences. I also volunteer every Saturday as part of my university's student chapter of Lions Club and am an active member of S.E.E.K, a program that connects students from underprivileged school districts to student engineers to get them excited about STEM and college in general.I tutor for the MCAT and draw instruction from my own experience with the test. I believe that there are best practices for studying for the test that make for more effective and efficient studying. These skills are a must when studying for a 7 and a half hour test that covers two years worth of material . In my spare time I enjoy wandering through forests, trying new restaurants, and hanging out with my friends.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions and I look forward to working with you! Best, Narmeen

Hello! I am a Brazilian/American Francophile, who have been a language teacher (English/Portuguese/French) for over 25 years. I was educated at an International School and I have worked at various Berlitz Language Institutes around the world, including the Centers in Rio de Janeiro, Lisbon, Berlin and Austin, Texas. I now live in Florida. In the past, I also taught languages at Oil Rigs (Petrobras and TransOcean) off the Brazilian coast, teaching English to the Brazilian crew and Portuguese to the foreign one. That was super exciting and I got to ride a helicopter to go to work every two weeks! I have an Associate's degree in French ( I have lived in Paris and travelled to France various times) and a Bachelor's in History and Anthropology from the University of Texas. I love to enrich my classes with cultural, geographical, geopolitical and current events related to the language we are studying. After all, language is culture!! Most of my students are business professionals, as well as worldly tourists, who need to learn a foreign language fast, usually for a future trip or stay abroad. However, in the past, I have also taught youngsters (between 10 and 15) in private homes as well as virtually. My methodology has an emphasis on conversation, little grammar, some reading and writing, plus all the cultural background related to the language/countries in question. I like to think of myself as a " citizen of the world" , a "cosmopolitan" (in fact, my favorite drink!). I love to meet different people, from different cultures and backgrounds. Besides being a language instructor and enthousiast, I am also a world traveller and an Indie writer, with three novels published on Amazon under the name : Isabela Pamelli Martins. " Copadrama" , the first one, (published in 2009) is a fun, satirical Rio romantic story. " Bye Bye Brasil; Hello America!" (available only for Portuguese readers) is inspired on true stories of Brazilian immigrants in the U.S. Finally, " Pamelli's Accelerator" is designed specifically for Portuguese Students. Tchau! Au revoir! Bye for now!!

I have experience working with children from ages 1-15 years old teaching math, science, reading comprehension. I participated in the UTeach program at the University of Texas at Austin from 2013-2016 as a science, math, and after-school STAAR instructor for students in 2nd to 5th grade. Additionally, I tutored kids from ages 8-16 years of age assisting with homework help, test preparation, and study and testing skills. I taught Cigarro Elementary as a student summer teacher for Teach For America for 4th grade, teaching math and language arts.I recently graduated from University of North Texas with an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and work with children, teens, and adults as a Licensed Professional Counseling Intern to provide comprehensive therapy to clients of all demographics and presenting concerns.I am a personable individual who enjoys connecting with others. I adopt a flexible teaching style in order to cater to all varying student's needs and learning style.

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 am a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, from which I received my Masters in Biomedical Engineering.

I'm a Chemical Engineering major at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong passion for teaching. I enjoy helping students in biology, algebra, and chemistry, focusing on building meaningful relationships that make learning engaging and approachable. Teaching not only strengthens my own understanding but also allows me to see the impact of confidence and curiosity in others. Outside of academics, I love staying active through hiking and playing sports like basketball. I also enjoy exploring new food spots, which gives me a chance to connect with different cultures and experiences.

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 am a patient and motivated tutor with a strong interest in STEM subjects, working with students of all ages and ability levels. I focus on building confidence and understanding by breaking down complex topics into clear, manageable steps. My tutoring approach is flexible and student-centered, adapting to each learner's needs and goals, whether that's strengthening foundations, improving exam performance, or developing problem-solving skills. I aim to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning independently.

I am a computer science major at The University of Texas at Austin and have taught a variety of math subjects for more than a year at a private institution.

Hello! I'm currently a Lecturer at UT Arlington in the Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering department. My background is in mechanical engineering and I enjoy teaching a diverse range of subjects in that area. If you have any questions, then please don't hesitate to ask!

I just graduated from the University of Texas-Austin with a B.A. in Psychology, a Business Foundations Certificate from McCombs, and a minor in German with a GPA of 3.92! I was a straight A student in high school as well, and took all advanced and AP classes. When I was at one of my high schools in Louisiana, the classes were all done online. I managed to finish all of the requirements for high school when I was only 14! Unfortunately, many of my classmates struggled without the presence of a teacher, and I began tutoring them. I tutored students from many different backgrounds in all subjects of high school for over 6 months, and greatly enjoyed it and would like to tutor again.Now, having just graduated with my undergraduate degree, I am looking to begin tutoring as a true mentor, and not as a classmate. I have always excelled in and enjoyed the classroom setting. I scored a 34 composite on my ACT and 2120 on my SAT, and would be happy to help with the challenges of preparing for standardized tests, as well as regular subjects for school. Through the use of your or your child's textbook/test prep materials and problems that I assign for practice, I will make sure that you or your child is fully equipped for success!Both learning and teaching provide me with a great sense of reward, and I am looking forward to tutoring (and learning from) you or your child.

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 currently attend the University of Texas at Austin. I am an economics major at the moment. I love helping students because there is nothing more fulfilling as a tutor then helping someone understand a concept that they didn't fully understand before. I know that when I was a student, reaching that moment was one of the best feeling because you feel like you've overcome a huge obstacle, so I would love to help bring that feeling to everyone I tutor. I tutor in Algebra, Psychology, Test Prep, and a few other subjects as well. I really enjoy tutoring ACT because I enjoy teaching the little tricks that I learned and helping students gain any edge they can get. I enjoy basketball and many TV shows in my free time!
