Maisha
BA The University of Texas at Austin
9+ Years Tutoring

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'm a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin. I graduated with a degree in aerospace engineering. It was a tough four and half years of hard work, but I truly learned a lot about myself. Above anything else, I learned to believe in myself.

Although I am now considered an adult I still fully enjoy watching cartoons and riding my bike. Some of my top favorite cartoons include Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, and of course Adventure Time.

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Biology and a concentration in Neurobiology. I also completed one of the liberal arts honors programs offered at UT. Throughout college, I had internships and jobs both on and off-campus, and I was an undergraduate researcher in the department of neuroscience at my university. Among these experiences, working as a writing consultant at our undergraduate writing center was especially memorable for me. It was a joy to help students from various academic backgrounds cultivate the writing skills they needed in order to flourish in undergraduate courses and even in the professional world. I also served as a lead peer academic coordinator in several of my science courses, including Biology I, Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, and Ecology. These roles required me to lead weekly on-campus study sessions with other students in the classes and interactively review course material. Prior to each session, I met with the professor to discuss methods I would implement in order to promote the success of fellow peers. Because I grew up with a brother who has a significant learning disability, teaching is something that I've come to value on a personal level. Throughout my brother's school years, I assisted him with assignments as well as extra-curricular activities so that he could gain enrichment to the best of his ability. Therefore, I've developed patience and an understanding of the uniqueness of various learning styles. I've had the privilege of gaining teaching experience in a wide variety of subjects, and it would be a joy for me to help students achieve success in the biological and physical sciences, algebra, essay writing, and english. I'm a firm believer in self-confidence, and seek to bring that out in my students by helping them fulfill their academic potential. In my spare time, I enjoy doing yoga, painting, playing soccer, and searching for the perfect cupcake.

I received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Washington University in St. Louis where I double majored in Biology and Anthropology. I caught the teaching bug while studying abroad in rural southern India, during which time I taught a computer literacy class to high school students. After college I became a state-certified science educator and spent two years as a Teach For America corps member, teaching high school Biology and SAT/ACT prep in San Antonio, Texas.Despite the extraordinary socioeconomic barriers to academic success that students faced in my school, I was able to lead them to substantial academic gains. My students – many of whom had not passed science in 8th grade – passed their STAAR Biology EOC exam at one of the highest rates in the entire school district. I attribute this outcome not only to my engaging teaching style, but also my patience and willingness to work alongside students until they truly reach mastery of every concept. I also persuaded my principal to adopt the SAT/ACT preparation elective that I taught to sophomores and juniors, because of my personal commitment to ensuring that bright and capable students in my school received the preparation necessary to achieve their post-secondary goals.Currently, I am pursuing dual Master's degrees from the University of Texas in Public Health and Social Work. As a born-and-raised Austinite, my interests include practicing yoga, sampling local food trailers, attending live concerts, and – perhaps most of all – cheering on my beloved Texas Longhorns in football.

Hello! Thank you for choosing Varsity Tutors. I focus on all sorts of math subjects, from algebra to pre-calculus and SAT math. I was always more of an independent thinker during high school, and I would usually try to solve things myself. However, I struggled a lot when the time for my SAT came around--to the point where I actually ended up needing a tutor myself for the math portion! Nonetheless, I acknowledged the power of tutoring when I ended up surpassing my own expectations for the exam! I wish to spread the benefits of knowledge and confidence in younger students.

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.

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.

Tutoring students and classmates is one of the most rewarding activities I've been lucky enough to experience. To see a student light up once it "clicks" is unlike anything else. My method of tutoring is to work from the bottom up. I start with the most basic aspects of a problem/concept to find where my student starts to struggle. By filling in those gaps in understanding, we develop strong footholds to reach more complex applications. I also believe in treating my students as peers. I'm a student as well, and as a student, I make mistakes. I'm honest about those mistakes: that's how we learn! I believe developing mutual respect with my student is vital to a successful session. As far as my education, I first earned my Associate of Science at Lone Star College in 2017. From there, I transferred to the University of Texas at Austin to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Physics. After taking a course on General Relativity, I had found my dream research career; and added a Bachelor of Science in Pure Mathematics. In addition to my STEM majors, I'm also completing a minor in Latin. I hope to eventually attend graduate school to study General Relativity. I tutor math (algebra, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus 1, calculus 2, matrices and matrix calculations, and intro complex number theory), physics (mechanics, electromagnetism, waves & optics, electrodynamics, modern physics, special relativity, and physics lab report writing (including Mathematica and LaTeX), and Latin (beginner and intermediate). My favorite subjects to tutor are honestly all of them, but I have a special love for modern physics, LaTeX, and Latin! Outside of academia, I have a mountain of hobbies! I'm very active in yoga, powerlifting, and dance (both performing and choreographing). I paint, draw, sew, play piano and viola, and stream games on Twitch in my free time! Lastly, I, like many many many students, struggle with mental health. I have ADHD and anxiety, and this is a time where we students with disabilities are feeling even more overwhelmed, disoriented, and strained. I want my students to feel confident that they can, and will, get back to a sense of normal, because I will be right there helping them. I will go to great lengths to help students that are struggling academically, emotionally, and especially both.

A native Texan, I grew up in Houston and attended St. Thomas High School before moving to Austin to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at The University of Texas at Austin. I graduated from UT just this May with special departmental honors in math for my 20+ hours of graduate level coursework and senior research thesis. Currently, I am a first year pure math PhD student at Boston College.While at UT I worked for three years as an undergraduate teaching assistant and grader for multiple classes, including calculus (I, II, and III) and discrete math. There are few things more enjoyable than being of service to students trying to learn difficult material and seeing the gears in their heads start to turn as their confidence builds. I truly love studying math, and I work hard to communicate the beauty in math to all of my students.Having studied math at an advanced level for a few years now, I have a privileged insight into the rich structure of mathematics. I have worked in fields that are as difficult compared to calculus as calculus is compared to basic multiplication tables. As a result, I have developed a mastery of material from high school and early college level math, and I have spent the last three years practicing the way I communicate math so that assignments stop seeming like lifeless and disconnected assortments of problems. Math is easier to learn when you see it as something to get excited about.Whether you're struggling with a course, looking to get ahead, or want to review for standardized exams, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help you start working toward your goals!
