I'm Jay! I'm currently going to college at the University of Texas at Austin. I am majoring in fine arts and I am also in the pre-medical program. Even though I'm not done with college, I have already published papers in the field of epigenetics since my freshmen year of college. Even though I consider myself to have an expertise in languages, I decided to teach areas in the field of natural sciences because those are the subjects that I am most passionate about.I was born in Taiwan; however, even before I learned how to speak, I moved to the States. Hence, my first language was English. In third grade, my parents decided to move back to Taiwan to aid in my education of the Chinese language. Of course, learning Chinese as a second language is as difficult as it sounds. With some hard work and the right learning strategies, I was able to get a good grasp on the language and even winning third place in a national writing competition four years after moving to Taiwan.Although I learned a new language during the time I was in Taiwan, I slowly lost my English speaking, writing, and reading abilities. When I moved back to the States in 9th grade, my English was not fluent enough to be put into a classroom with the other native speakers. I worked hard, and I was able to get out of a two-year ESL (English as a Second Language) program in just a semester.I have tutored students since I was in high school in English, Chinese, mathematics, and most subjects in the area of natural sciences. I don't want to just teach my students the subjects themselves. I want to teach them my strategies and SECRETS to learning quickly and efficiently. I am easy to reach and will provide fast responses. Feel free to contact me with questions or to schedule a lesson.I can't wait to speak with you soon!

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's of Science and Arts in Neuroscience. When it comes to standardized testing, studying for class tests, and other academic work, I used to struggle a lot when I was a student. I started taking a different approach to learning. When it came to math, I would do my best to find the simplest method to find the answer rather than studying a difficult method. I would then develop healthier study habits for my classes and would ace them while prioritizing sleep. As a former student myself, I know how difficult school can be. That is why I want to share my tips and strategies to those who seem to struggle so that they can come out on top. My history tutoring high school students, middle schoolers, and even college underclassmen has given me the experience to properly educate and help those going through academic, standardized testing, and even student life struggles. As a tutor, I will teach students the best way to tackle difficult questions in their respective subjects, studying habits that promote physical and mental wellbeing, and core concepts that are fundamental to solving questions both standardized tests and academic coursework. I have a passion to provide SAT/ACT tutoring, math, science, and even MCAT tutoring. I also like to get to know my student's personal and professional goals, so I can personalize my tutoring approach to each of them.
Tutoring is my passion. Working one-on-one with students gives them the focus they need to grasp difficult concepts. I appreciate that each student is unique with a specific learning style. Therefore, I tailor my sessions to fit the student's needs. I am very patient, encouraging, and reliable.With over 20 years of tutoring experience, I have consistently helped students raise their grade level and improve their mastery of the subject matter. As a results-oriented tutor, I am reliable and professional. I am organized and arrive at every tutoring session prepared. For each student I tailor my teaching style to match their learning skills. I maintain good communication with the parents of my students and with their teachers when I have been asked to contact their teachers. My passion is education, and I enjoy conveying this enthusiasm to my students in the following areas: Art History and AP Art History; American, World, and European History and AP levels; English, World, and American Literature; English Language Arts; Theology; Government; Social Studies; and French I, II, III, IV and AP level French as well as French conversation and trip planning.
As a passionate educator currently teaching 3rd grade math and science, I strive to ignite a love for learning in my students. With a Bachelor's degree in Studio Art and Plan II Honors from The University of Texas at Austin, I bring a creative approach to my teaching. My experience in tutoring elementary subjects, including math and science, has equipped me with the skills to connect with students and tailor my methods to meet their individual needs. I believe in fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore and ask questions. My commitment to helping students succeed drives my enthusiasm for tutoring, and I look forward to guiding them on their academic journeys.
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.
I sought to become a tutor during my undergraduate career at The University of Texas at Austin. I received my degree in Nutritional Sciences, and I will be starting dental school this fall! I love biology, and enjoy the aspect of learning and the fulfillment of succeeding in academics.Outside of school, I LOVE cooking and spending time with friends! I also love playing musical instruments, mainly flute because of its difficulty and vast repertoire.My main goal for my students is for them to become competent and comfortable in their subject areas. I understand the difficulties and pressures that come along with school, which is why I want to do my best to ensure their success.
Hi! I'm Arnav, an Economics student at The University of Texas at Austin who genuinely enjoys helping students build confidence in subjects they may find challenging. I've previously tutored at Best Brains Learning Center, worked with high school students on SAT preparation and college essays, and helped college students with introductory math courses. My teaching style is patient, supportive, and personalized because I know every student learns differently. Rather than just giving answers, I focus on helping students understand concepts in a way that makes sense to them and develop skills they can use independently. My goal is to make learning less stressful, more engaging, and help students feel confident in their abilities.

I've gained over ten years of teaching and tutoring experience at all levels, from elementary school to high school and university. Over the course of this time, I've tutored many elementary, middle, high school and college students privately in subjects ranging from mathematics to writing to standardized test prep (SAT/GRE). I am also a published writer, with essays and articles appearing in Foreign Policy Magazine, the Oxford Encyclopedia, and other publications. In addition, I worked for two years as a foreign language instructor at the University of Washington, conducting my own class of undergraduate and graduate students, while completing my Masters Degree there. Most recently, I worked as a Teaching Assistant in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Columbia University in the City of New York while working on my PhD. I have also completed a number of teaching workshops at the University of Washington and Columbia University, as well as a course in pedagogy. Throughout this time, I continued to tutor K-12 students as well, and am comfortable working with students of all ages. Most importantly, however, I absolutely love working with students, and have a sincere passion and enthusiasm for teaching. I consider it a challenging calling, but one that has been immensely gratifying, both personally and professionally. I look forward to meeting and exploring how we can achieve your educational goals together!
I am a freshman, studying at the University of Texas at Austin. I am majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I love working with students because I want to help them grow, and I grow from them as well. I have tutored students before in elementary and middle school math. I believe that seeking help when needed is very important as one should be able to fully grasp concepts. In my free time, I like to travel. Additionally, I play the violin and like to spend time with family and friends.
I'm a recent graduate from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering (Hook 'em Horns!). I've been involved with teaching K-12 for 3 years now during my college career and have had a passion for teaching ever since my first job in high school at a math tutoring company. I scored well on both the SAT and the ACT thanks to many prep courses for the SAT and adequate prep materials for the ACT. In high school, my favorite subjects were by far Math, Biology and Spanish, and I made sure to apply my love for those subjects through studying Biomedical Engineering with a Spanish minor. I have also scored well on the MCAT in hopes of going to medical school someday.My personal philosophy with teaching focuses on being personable. 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!
