I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Plan II Honors along with a minor in Biology. During my years as an undergrad, I served as a peer adviser to help incoming freshmen prepare for college-level classes; an editor for both my university's literary journal and research journal; and a Mandarin Chinese teacher for beginning learners. After graduation, I began tutoring ESL students from China and eventually succeeded in raising their English scores by a full letter grade at the end of the semester. With more than 5 years of mentoring, tutoring, and teaching experience, I strongly believe that all subjects can be made fascinating. Gaining knowledge should be an exciting process, not a dreaded routine. Because of this, I try my best to find creative and fun methods of teaching for all my subjects, particularly for my specialtiesreading, writing, and test preparation. Due to my love of both learning and helping others, I am currently beginning a graduate degree in social work that will allow me to both expand my education and aid a greater amount of people. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and writing; playing the piano, violin, and ukulele; pet-sitting kittens or puppies; and trying adventurous foods.

My name is Maisha and I am a graduate of Biology from UT Austin. I have a passion for learning and sharing this enthusiasm with others. I don't believe that education is restricted to the classroom-learning happens everywhere and throughout our lives. I hope to help students use what they learn to help them succeed outside of the classroom and well into the future. My favorite part about teaching is trying to help students overcome the fear and failure that can sometimes be associated with learning. And the amazing part about tutoring is that it's a two way street: I learn from my students just as much as, if not more than, they learn from me. In addition to my Biology degree, I also hold a UTeach composite science teaching certification obtained from UT's nationally recognized teacher preparation program. I student taught Integrated Physics and Chemistry at McCallum High School and stayed there to teach Aquatic Science and AP Biology for two more months. In my spare time, I like to read, swim, and watch foreign movies.

I am especially passionate about teaching English Language Arts and Reading because strong reading and writing skills form the foundation for learning in every subject. I enjoy helping students strengthen reading comprehension, analyze literature, and develop writing skills that allow them to clearly express their ideas. My goal is to help students move beyond simply completing assignments to truly understanding and engaging with what they read. My tutoring style is patient, encouraging, and adaptable. I believe every student learns differently, so I work to meet students where they are and break challenging concepts into manageable steps. I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence in their abilities.

I am passionate about tutoring because I have seen firsthand how individualized academic support can transform a student's confidence and performance. I have several years of experience working with students in math and STEM subjects, and I am deeply committed to helping learners not only understand the material, but also believe in their ability to succeed. My interest in tutoring began early and grew into action when I founded my own tutoring organization, Fail Me Not Tutoring, during high school. Through this organization, I worked closely with middle and high school students, providing one-on-one and small-group instruction tailored to each student's learning style. I also created structured study materials, tracked progress over time, and focused on building strong foundational skills rather than short-term memorization. Leading this organization taught me how to explain complex concepts clearly, remain patient during challenges, and adapt my approach to meet each student's needs. In addition to tutoring, my background as a pre-medical student and healthcare worker has strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and empathy skills. I regularly work with individuals from diverse backgrounds and have learned the importance of active listening, encouragement, and positive reinforcementskills that translate directly into effective tutoring. I strive to create a supportive, low-pressure environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as part of the learning process. I am motivated by seeing students grow in both understanding and confidence, and I take pride in being a consistent, reliable mentor. I believe that education can be empowering when delivered with patience and structure, and I am excited about the opportunity to continue supporting students academically and personally through tutoring.

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.

I am a seasoned educator with 25 years of experience working with children in the public school system grades K-6. I grew up in Texas and graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Learning and Development, Elementary Theater Arts and Generic Special Education. I continued my education when I moved to Wisconsin in 1997 and graduated from The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater with a Master's in Early Childhood Special Education. In June of 2021 I retired from my local school district after a 21 year career in special education.After graduating from UT Austin I began working as an Early Childhood Special Education teacher and have worked in various special education positions K-6 throughout my career. I also was part of the creation and start-up of our district's 4K program and I am trained and worked as a math interventionist at the 5th and 6th grade level.Throughout my career I was viewed by others as an insightful motivator and cheerleader for my students. I have a proven track record of success, strong interpersonal skills and the ability to empower others to work together to find and deliver results. I strongly believe all children can learn and will put in the effort needed to make that happen. On a personal note, I have 3 grown children and a new grandbaby that was born in April 2021. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family, my dog, and my friends as well as reading and traveling.

Education has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. On my first day of medical school, we were told that the term "doctor" comes from the Latin "docere" meaning "to teach." Given this enormous responsibility, I find that I cannot help but spread my knowledge that I have attained over my 20 year-long education career.As a medical student, I know how important it is to succeed in school. While in college, I personally was a Varsity Tutors client and found that it brought me much success in my academic success. I wish, now, to pay it forward and impart my knowledge over the topics I consider my speciality.By working with several students over the years, I have developed teaching methods dependent on the type of student I am working with. Having a solid foundation to learn and good study skills is incomparable when pursuing higher education, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. I also know learning techniques that will improve long-term retention.While attending the University of Texas at Austin, I majored in biology and completed a certificate program in the foundations of business. I consider the fields of science and math to be my strengths and know how to teach these to improve one's knowledge base. As a 4th year medical student, I have also studied for and taken several standardized exams, including medical licensing exams, and I know that the approach to these is different that an exam for class.Every subject I teach is one I have studied extensively in the past, either through taking Advanced Placement classes in high school, college coursework, or within my medical curriculum. I have worked with several students in the past ranging from preschool to medical student, and have been blessed to see them improve over the course of my tutelage.If you have any questions for me, or would like more information into my credentials, I would love to be of more assistance and look forward to hearing from you!
