I am a rising sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin. I am studying for a Bachelor of Science and Arts in chemistry with a minor in educational psychology and sociology. Previously, I was a student worker at a childcare center for kids 6 weeks (infants) to 5 years old (pre-school) to spur on their imagination and creativity. Throughout my high school years, I assisted fellow classmates and underclassmen when they had trouble on coursework. Because I recently graduated from high school, I understand the importance of AP exams to one's future. Even though most students aim to get a high score, I help students get into the mindset of learning for the sake of learning. Since most of the material shows up again in college, a student's future success is highly dependent on this 'mastery learning' mindset. I am passionate to tutor students over Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics while gaining an insight to their way of thinking and aid them in surpassing any obstacle. A college education may not be the only path to a successful life, but I believe that it is a guaranteed way for one to be able to look back on their early years and realize that all the hard work was worth it.

I recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Public Health and a minor in History. Prior to that, I received my IB diploma and took 8 AP exams. Over the years, I've supported students as a biostatistics teaching assistant, history supplemental instructor, and peer academic coach. These roles taught me that the most effective learning begins with understanding your own habits and preferences; once we identify what works for you, we can build a strategy that makes even the toughest material more approachable! I specialize in tutoring hard sciences like biology and chemistry, the MCAT, and academic skills like time management and study strategies. I'd love the chance to help you excel in these topics and achieve whatever you're aiming for during your academic journey I love spending time with my family and friends, visiting different coffee shops, cooking and baking, and going on walks with my pup!
I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I earned a B.A. in Government and a B.S. in Communication Studies. This fall, I will be returning to my alma mater to pursue a Master of Public Health. Over the course of my undergraduate career, I had the privilege of tutoring students of all ages in language arts, writing, the GRE and study skills. I am very familiar with that overwhelming feeling of anxiety that people can feel when faced with eight empty pages left on an eight page research paper or unsatisfying GRE practice scores. I want students to walk away from a session with the tools they need to tackle an obstacle that previously felt insurmountable, so I take a very hands-on approach to these subjects by actively guiding students through prompts, GRE strategies, and research outlines. I want the student to walk away from each session with a collaboratively created plan of action that will help quell their anxiety and guide their efforts going forward. I take a similar approach to life in my spare time - I love to challenge myself with hobbies like rock climbing, cooking and creative writing. After each successful (or wildly unsuccessful) attempt at something new, I take what I learned and modify my approach to the problem until one day I manage to create something delicious!
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Masters of Education (Special Education; Learning and Behavior Disorders) from The University of Texas. I received my Doctorate in Education from The University of Washington. I have public and private school experience teaching students with learning disabilities and emotional disorders in upper elementary grades and middle school. In addition, I taught 5th grade for two years. I had the opportunity to enter a doctoral program in education at the University of Washington when my family moved to Seattle. I worked as a Teaching and Research Assistant while completing my degree. Upon finishing, I remained at UW for three years to direct a research project in special education and to direct their teacher education program in Behavior Disorders. I taught graduate level courses in two fields, learning disabilities and behavior disorders. Our family made the decision to return to Texas in 1991 when my husband and I both had new job opportunities. I was a Professor of Special Education at TCU in Fort Worth from 1991 until I recently retired. My experiences at TCU included directing the graduate and undergraduate programs in special education. Because students graduating from our program earned dual certification in general and special education, I was heavily involved in teaching college students who were planning to be elementary and middle school teachers. TCU has two laboratory schools, Starpoint School (for elementary students with learning disabilities) and KinderFrogs School, an early intervention program for young children with Down Syndrome and other developmental delays. I was on the Advisory Board for both schools and worked closely with the teachers, assisting as needed. My experiences go beyond the rather bland description of what is written above. I am passionate about teaching children and youth and advocating for their needs. Too often the focus is placed on student deficits rather than student strengths. This leads to a cycle of defeat within the child. Teaching requires meeting student needs. My strength is identifying students' strengths and needs and to teach accordingly. I have over 30 years experience in developing successful learning strategies that assist students in their learning. I am in my 60s and I am still excited about meeting and teaching students. Every student has unique ways of learning. I believe that it is important to establish a strong teaching/learning relationship with each student based on their uniqueness. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I currently live on a barrier island off the coast of South Carolina with my black lab. I volunteer for several local charities and for Meals on Wheels. I love my life!
As a native Spanish speaker and passionate educator, I bring over 2 years of tutoring experience with a strong focus on conversational Spanish and cultural fluency. I've worked with learners of all ages and levelsfrom beginners just starting out to students in advanced college courses. At the undergraduate level, I've tutored classes such as First-Year Spanish I & II, Intermediate Spanish, and Spanish Conversation and Culture, helping students build confidence in both academic and real-world settings. Whether you're just starting out or looking to improve your fluency through real-world conversation, I tailor each lesson to your goals and learning style. I create a supportive, low-pressure environment where you can build confidence, expand your vocabulary, and speak more naturally. In addition to my Spanish minor, I hold a Bachelor's in Computer Science from The University of Texas at Austin and have taught coding (Java, Python, C/C#) to students of all ages. breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps. My lessons focus on hands-on learning and confidence-building, whether you're preparing for a class or building your own projects. Above all, I'm passionate about mentoring students as they grow, ask questions, and succeed in both language and tech.
I am a graduate from the University of Texas at Austin in Petroleum Engineering. I am very passionate about teaching and would like to complete my teaching certificate in the near future. I have a lot of experience tutoring students in math classes ranging from middle school math to advanced math topics such as calculus. I don't see tutoring as a means to finding an answer, but rather an opportunity to learn and visualize the problems and learn more about the problems themselves. I have always enjoyed math because it is one of the only subjects that you can always prove your answer to be correct with concrete evidence. I am a very patient person and won't give up on my students because I know that everyone is capable of solving the problems they are given. It is a matter of how the students will learn it and I believe that if the students don't understand a problem, I am not doing a good enough job and will constantly adjust my teaching style until my student masters their subjects. In my free time I love doing a variety of different activities. One of my favorite things is food! I love cooking and baking different items. I also love hiking outdoors and playing different sports. I also love music! Whenever there is a music festival near me, I will definitely attend! And when music festivals aren't around, you'll definitely find me singing along at a karaoke place with my friends. Lastly, I am in love with movies. I love all genres and enjoy watching how beautiful the motion pictures turn out.
Since childhood I've had a passion for teaching and learning math. I started actually competing in math tournaments starting in high school, but even in middle school I would do math for fun. Soon realizing my deep passion for math I ended up going to college for mathematics and now currently work as a Junior Java Developer for BGC Partners. That is a quick summary, but more detail below.In High School, I was very into competitive academics. I was on math team, science team, and even history team. My school was brand new so there weren't many people on the teams, but I always tried to make it more fun for people to come. I learned new math tricks on my own to help my fellow teammates. I ended up being district champion in number sense 2 years in a row and top 3 in mathematics those 2 years as well. Even back in high school I loved to help people with math regardless of what year they were or if it would benefit me or not. Now I usually just tutor math because I hope to maybe become a math teacher or professor in the future! Of course that's not for a while and I would have to do my Phd but I think it would be worth it because I believe teaching others math is amazing and it can truly help someone's future and there is no better feeling than that. More importantly personally I think math is just truly magnificent how these formulas and calculations of an intangible idea somehow explain all the real world.
I am highly enthusiastic about math! I have taught mathematics for 10 years to students in grades 7-12 and I have tutored students on weekends and nights as well.I attended University of Texas at Austin and earned my BA in Economics in 2004 with a minor in Mathematics. I'm excited to help students clear up any confusion in their approach to problem-solving and build their confidence and skill set.
Hello! My name is Sneha and I am a neuroscience student at UT Austin. I love teaching and helping others so I look forward to working with you!
My life experiences to date have taken me across four continents. I was born in India before spending my formative years in Algeria and England, before again traveling westward, to North America, where I expanded my global perspective in French-speaking Montral and multicultural Texas. The longitudes and latitudes that I have traversed in a quarter-century have instilled in me an irrepressible thirst for discovery, while the breadth of my experiences made me confident that I could make a meaningful in my community.I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin and will be continuing my studies in International Finance and Economic Policy at Columbia in August. Until then, I am free to tutor/teach in any capacity that I can.
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'm a writer and editor with a passion for learning that I love to share -- I've been told my tag line should be "let's find out!" I'm a native Austinite, but I lived in New York while I got my Bachelor's in Comparative Literature and minored in Linguistics. After I graduated I moved back home to Austin and got my Masters in Global Policy Studies at the LBJ School of Public Affairs at UT. Now I'm in Fort Worth, with an MBA I picked up along the way (also from UT Austin) -- apparently I can't stay out of school for long.As the oldest of three kids, I've been teaching informally for as long as I can remember. I've also volunteered with Austin Partners in Education, working with middle school kids on reading and writing. I love to explore the world with others and help those around me discover an enthusiasm for learning that can make life so rewarding. I look forward to working with you and seeing what we can find out!
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 sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin, studying International Relations and Global Studies with a minor in Linguistics through the Liberal Arts Honors program. I tutor English, Arabic, and Spanish to students of all ages, focusing on grammar, conversation, and cultural understanding. For those seeking more in-depth study, I also offer instruction in English and Spanish literature. My approach emphasizes conversation, as I believe it is the key to fluency and confidence in any language. Beyond languages, I specialize in writing and essay support, including college applications, speech and debate preparation, and tutoring a range of IB and AP subjects. As an International Baccalaureate graduate and AP Distinguished Scholar, I understand the challenges of rigorous academic programs and tailor my sessions to help students excel. I am deeply dedicated to my students' success and will spend the time necessary to ensure they meet their goals. As a fellow student, I understand firsthand that schedules can change, and I pride myself on being flexible and accommodating. My passion for teaching drives me to create meaningful learning experiences, and I aspire to one day become a professor, sharing knowledge and inspiring curiosity in future generations.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science and Art in Biology and a minor in psychology. I am working towards medical school now by volunteering at hospitals and shadowing many doctors and surgeons. I was a part of the PLUS, Peer-Led Undergraduate Studying, program that UT created where I taught my peers surplus information and worked with the professor to better aid my peers. In high school, I was chosen by my algebra and Spanish teacher to come in during lunch to help my peers with their homework and with any questions they were struggling with over the content. I will tutor a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate with Spanish, Algebra, and biology. Spanish is my native language so I am fluent in both English and Spanish.In my spare time I love to go explore, swim, sketch, add places to my bucket list, read, and hike. I enjoy spending the day at museums followed by finding a new place to eat. I absolutely love trying new food! I also have a 12 year old Golden Retriever named Lucky whom is my world. I take him out to swim as much as I can, and he also enjoys trips to the pet store.
I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics with concentrations in French and Spanish. As the daughter of an educator, I have always had a personal passion for academic success, and have actively engaged in helping students grow into their potential. I was a volunteer peer tutor as a high school senior, always helped my fellow undergraduate classmates, and tutored members of my church community after graduation. After a corporate career, I worked as a high school math and science teacher with a focus on algebra, PSAT prep, earth science, and chemistry. Many of my students were years below grade level, but I found ways to meet them where they were and teach them in ways they could understand. As a parent, I homeschooled our daughter from pre-kindergarten through second grade and have continued to nurture her curiosity for learning. While an area of study may not be every student's favorite, we can all learn something from every subject that helps form us into the people we are destined to become. I hope all my students--no matter their age--learn that they CAN do hard things! In my spare time, I enjoy crafting, cooking, watching documentaries, singing, and listening to music.
As a dedicated tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from The University of Texas at Austin, I have over 2 years of experience helping students excel in subjects such as AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. My approach centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where I tailor my teaching methods to meet each student's unique needs. I am passionate about making complex scientific concepts accessible and engaging, which not only boosts academic performance but also inspires a genuine interest in the subject matter. I look forward to empowering students to achieve their academic goals and develop a love for science.
Hey there! My name is Khang, and I'm happy to help you learn! A bit about me, I was a pretty good student in high school. I took a bunch of AP classes, from AP Calculus BC to AP Psychology, and I understand the rigor and hard work that it takes to succeed in those classes. I also got a 1490 on my PSAT/NMSQT (and qualified as a National Merit Finalist) as well as a 1540 on my SAT (including a perfect score on the English section). My teaching philosophy is quite simple. First, I want to clear any foundational misunderstandings you may have with a subject by teaching you what you don't know and working our way up. Then, I do practice questions with you so you can understand how to apply the concepts you just learned. Then finally, I let you practice on your own so that you can learn by yourself how to think critically and to practice all the skills that you learned. Feel free to book a session with me; I'm ready to help with whatever you need!
I am a 4th grade teacher who is passionate about helping students feel confident, capable, and excited about learning. I love working with elementary students and supporting them as they build strong foundations in reading, writing, and math. Every child learns differently, so I take the time to understand each student's strengths and tailor my approach to meet their individual needs.
I want to help students achieve their personal and professional goals by helping them learn any level math. I want to remove any apprehension towards math and make it relevant through real life examples.
I have seven years of teaching experience, including teaching both AP and IB English courses. I also work as an essay examiner for the International Baccalaureate program. I hold a bachelor's degree in English Education, a master's degree in Rhetoric and Composition, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Rhetoric at the University of Texas at Austin. I also teach first- year composition at UT-Austin.I enjoy working with students on an individual basis as we engage in the labor and joy of writing together. I especially enjoy working with students on college application essays, whether personal essays or applicationstatements, and I am also experienced with on-demand writing tasks that appear on tests like the SAT or the AP Exams. With seven years of classroom experience and three years of experience working as a grader for the International Baccalaureate program, my unique blend of both teaching and professional writing experience allows me to effectively help students reach their full potential.
An experienced tutor with over 3 years of experience with math and science subjects at a college level. Lead one on one and group tutoring sessions with upwards of twenty students. Particular expertise in Algebra and Calculus in a group setting. Now looking to now apply my college focused experience with a larger age group of students.
I have previous experience tutoring 5th grade students in math, science, and reading comprehension, in preparation for the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS), which was a previous standardized test in the state of Texas. My students at that time consistently gave me feedback that they understood concepts that they were previously struggling with, after having a tutoring session with me.My educational background consists of completing a master's degree in clinical medical sciences (physician assistant studies) and completing a bachelor of arts degree in biology. I previously worked as a physician assistant for almost 2.5 years in the specialties of primary care and oncology, and truly enjoyed taking care of patients. I consider myself to be hardworking, patient, friendly, and great with children. I was born and raised in Houston, TX and love to spend my free time with my family and friends, volunteering, and studying spirituality.
I am a fourth year student at the University of Texas at Austin. I am studying Public Health and Business. I have taught students in Math, Science, and Reading previously. I understand what it takes for an individual to gain knowledge and learn to be successful in the future.
I am currently in the final year of my PhD program at The University of Texas at Austin, where I also completed my undergraduate education. During the last decade, I developed expertise in a wide variety of subjects in the humanities and social sciences because of my interdisciplinary approach to my studies. As an undergraduate, I triple majored in Government, History, and the self-created major of African Development Studies through the Humanities Honors Thesis Program in the College of Liberal Arts, where I was also a member of Plan 1 Honors (the humanities equivalent of the more well-known Plan 2 program). I also obtained minors in Philosophy and African & African Diaspora Studies, as well as a certifications in Human Rights & Social Justice and European Studies. In May 2013, I graduated a Dean's Distinguished Graduate (one of twelve graduating students selected annually for the College of Liberal Arts' highest honor). By August of the same year, I enrolled in my current program to pursue a degree in African History, with a minor in Global History. I will defend my dissertation on the history of sexual health and HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa at the end of this calendar year.I always try to emphasize investing in the education of others as my personal form of gratitude for the many opportunities that propelled my own learning. Mentoring my best friend to the point that I felt his own graduate accomplishments surpassed my own has been one of the most rewarding moments of my life thus far. I possess a profound passion for guiding others to that "lightbulb moment", and I have a long history of experience doing so. My qualifications include: coaching debate and public speaking for over five years, both privately and at Westlake High School in Texas; teaching thousands of undergraduate history students at the University of Texas over the course of five years; mentoring several undergraduate thesis students; designing course curriculum and teaching aids; functioning as an Undergraduate Writing Mentor for a large freshman writing course; and providing - in various official capacities - constructive feedback on many of my colleagues' research and writing efforts.Higher level education in historical topics is almost entirely done through copious amounts of reading and almost all courses conclude with term papers amounting to close to fifty pages in length. The comprehensive exam portfolio that marked my transition from PhD Student to PhD Candidate alone consisted of over four hundred pages of quality written work. My dissertation, once finished, will be similar. Additionally, I have edited and proofread several published academic books. Finally, I am the author of over thirty pieces of written work, including chapters and articles printed by various respected academic publishers. I presented much of this research at conferences all over the world, including a paper which earned the award for the best written work from the University of Alabama in 2014.I possess over a decade of learned expertise in history, and much of my published research is held in high regard by my peers and mentors alike. My undergraduate honors thesis approached history from the direction of political science and political economy, while my current efforts examine the social and political impact of trends in global history and the history of medicine in sub-Saharan Africa. While Africa is my regional specialty, I have also taught classes in both 20th century Texan history and the history of the modern U.S. In 2015, I even taught a seminar on the global history of disease to a collection of AP World History teachers seeking to build curriculum around this topic. Historical education requires a particular style of style of writing which emphasizes the construction of effective arguments and the use of evidence to tie ideas together in a way that is distinct from the type of writing encouraged in other fields. Articulating concepts utilizing this style is by far my most refined skill.I am certainly open to discussing tutoring options further. Because I value quality education, I want to make sure that I am an appropriate fit for any student interested in working with me. This said, the lengthy amount of time I have spent with The University of Texas at Austin has granted me qualifications to educate in topics well outside of the narrow focus of my dissertation research. I have explored topics in the fields of social work, business ethics, philosophy, law, the history of science, and many more. I encourage any inquiries seeking clarification about whether I am able to provide mentorship in any particular field of study.
I recently graduated from the University of Houston with a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering, and I am in the process of transitioning to a research position. I chose to pursue a career in academia because I have always enjoyed the scientific process, and learning and teaching are some of the most enjoyable experiences a person can have.Through the course of my academic career, I have explored numerous topics. More importantly, I have conveyed complex ideas to others. One of the most important aspects of technical research is being able to communicate your thoughts effectively. I understand the importance of taking a step-by-step approach and packaging ideas in ways that people can visualize.I am, at my core, a technically-minded problem solver. I know what it takes to succeed at any academic level. If you, or someone you know, is struggling with any course or concept, I would be happy to help in whatever way that I can.
Hello! My name is Michael and I am a junior at The University of Texas Austin majoring in Chemical Engineering w/ a minor in CS.

Some things are difficult to learn on one's own, or they are difficult with one version of learning those things. I hope to help others by providing a different or clear way of thinking about what gives them trouble.
My goal as a tutor is to help students to succeed in their classes and understand important concepts related to the class materials with opportunities to ask questions.
I received my Bachelors from the University of Texas at Austin's Plan II Honors Program with a degree in Plan II. While at UT, I did a creative thesis, which ultimately resulted in a cookbook/memoir about American women, (such as my grandmother) in the kitchen. I love to write, and love helping students write as creatively as possible within the parameters of their schoolwork.I’m committed to making learning as fun and enjoyable. Having been an occasionally reluctant learner, I believe that most people are happiest when they feel that they’re learning independently, and are empowered enough to make their education their own. I want to help students create this sense of worth and importance within their studies and schoolwork, which I believe can ultimately lead to a more joyful, fulfilled life.
