Nigerian with a love for learning. I believe with the right tools, the sky is just a stepping stone and I believe I can offer you those tools given my background, passion for learning and my enthusiasm. So, contact me and let's set schedule a lesson.

Hi, My name is Bonita Hall and I am currently a Sophomore Physics/Math student at the University of Texas at Austin.

Math doesn't have to be scary: I'm here to make it click.I'm a former high school math teacher and now a grad student, and I love helping students feel confident with Algebra, Geometry, and beyond. We'll break concepts down step-by-step, practice together, and celebrate every "aha!" moment.Outside of tutoring, I'm into weightlifting and traveling, which means I bring plenty of energy and real-world examples to my lessons. My goal is simple: help you understand the material, believe in yourself, and maybe even have a little fun along the way. I'm excited to get to know you and help you grow!

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 am currently a sophomore electrical and computer engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin. I helped out as a general subject (math, science, history, etc.) tutor at Health Careers High School in San Antonio while I was a junior and senior as part of National Honor Society. My strong academic subject areas are math, particularly calculus, trigonometry, and algebra; although I do tutor up to all high school levels of math, computer science programming in Java, Python, or C, electrical engineering topics like circuitry or programming, and mechanical physics. I really enjoy helping other people out because my motto is "ancora imparo," or "I am always learning." So if I can always learn something, I wish to help others learn and do better as well. My hobbies include exercise, sports, and playing video games, basically anything that engages the body or mind!

I am a recent graduate of The University of Texas with a major in psychology and a minor in Italian studies I am passionate about learning in and outside of the classroom. It brings me joy to see people gain new understandings, and I am excited about the opportunity to help people in this process.Subjects I tutor include algebra, geometry, statistics, and writing. Math is one of my favorite subjects because I think working with numbers is like completing a fun puzzle. In the past, I have tutored a kindergartener in phonics and two middle schoolers in math and English.

My name is Sterling Chan and I have been working in education for the past five years, specializing in math. The children I have taught have varied in grade level (K-8th) exhibiting a wide spectrum of skill levels from struggling to gifted, coming from both low-income and affluent communities. My belief though is that all children have the capacity to learn though at a unique rate that must be met and understood.My approach to teaching a new skill and assisting struggling students is to first establish an appreciation for its "real-world" application and then to break down the concept into "step-by-step" bites. Unique strengths that I bring to the tutoring relationship are my abilities to communicate and connect with students as well as an excitement for the subject matter. I believe these gifts enable me at best to instill an appreciation for learning and at the very least the capacity to frame the skill in a way that is relevant to the individual students' experience. I look forward to putting these gifts to work for your young learner's needs.In my free time I enjoy Ultimate Frisbee, singing, writing, world cultures, music, Magic the Gathering and Sudoku.

I am a University of Texas student pursuing a BSA in Mathematics, I am passionate about being a leader and a mentor, I love working with people! I was an orientation advisor for two summers, where I gave students support and advice when it came to class preparation and registration. This allowed me to pass my knowledge of mathematics classes and the college class experience overall to new students. I also love mathematics because it allows me to do work using a problem-solving approach and develop a great sense of logic. I am really interested in applied mathematics, using math for real-world situations! Subjects I feel very strongly about are discrete mathematics, algebra, linear algebra. My tutoring philosophy is to help students help themselves, as this will boost their motivation and confidence, and to be a friend to them as well as a mentor.Also if for some reason my internet is choppy or crashes in our session early on, I will try to make sure you get refunded!

When I tutor, I hope to impart more than knowledge. I strive to teach new and efficient ways of thinking, as time is an invaluable part of our lives, be it personal or work related. Over the course of over 9 years, I have tutored children and adults, learning how to adapt to each learning style. As long as the student who comes for help is dedicated, I believe I can transform dedication into success.

My passion for teaching and working with students began at a young age as I watched numerous family members work in the education field. I was able to volunteer in their classrooms and share my love of learning. When I grew up, I knew I belonged in a classroom. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelors in Education I began my teaching career. Over the next 5 years I taught Intervention classes for kinder-5th, as well as multiple years in 3rd and 5th grade classrooms. Not only did my success rate in the classroom show in my students' standard assessment scores, but it could also be seen in their motivation levels and positive attitudes they held towards learning. While teaching, I continued my education back at the University of Texas and graduated with a Masters in Educational Psychology. I transitioned out of the classroom and spent the next 5 years as a Professional School Counselor for Elementary and Middle school level students. Presently, when working with students, I find my passion utilizing both of my specialities: teaching and counseling. My academic teaching skills integrated with social emotional learning allows me to teach the whole child for the best results. I truly believe that when we are in our best mindsets, the best learning can occur. I look forward to working and supporting each student with strategies that best fit their styles and personalities.

My name is Mohima Sultana and I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a BSA in Biochemistry. I have experience teaching a wide range of subjects and working with individuals from various ages and backgrounds with a specialized background in teaching middle school students. I enjoy teaching math, English, and of course all the sciences! I love languages and love to teach English and Arabic! I love helping students reach their goals and develop new skills! Over the years I have really discovered the importance of individualized learning. We each have our own style, methods and ways of learning and I think it is super important to utilize these individual needs when learning and retaining information. That is why I am super enthusiastic about helping you find the techniques that fit with your needs and making them work for you in reaching your academic goals! As a medical student myself, I have had to find ways to learn and retain information and I can use my experience to help you excel and pursue the knowledge of your dreams! I love watching my students succeed and will do anything to support you in every way that I can to help you be successful!

Learning is one of my biggest values in life and it is important to me that everyone has the opportunity to appreciate and value learning as well.

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.

I am a Math teacher who is determined to ensure that all my students accomplish their goals. I will use my best efforts to have students not only meet my expectations but their own as well.

I am currently a freshman at the University of Texas at Austin and pursuing a Bachelor's in Computer Science. In my free time, I enjoy coding for quantum computers and especially love to explore interesting math and science concepts. I have had 3 years of prior experience teaching groups of students as a part of the North South Foundation, with my expertise being in the sciences. My goal as a tutor is to not only to help my students learn a new subject but rather gain a fundamental understanding of the concept in an intuitive way. This has been my goal since I began high school due to many of the classes being taught as a place to just memorize facts and formulas - but I wanted to actually know the background behind them and see where things were derived from. I knew that there were others out there who had a similar mindset so I sought out ways in which I could teach subjects that I was passionate about to other students like myself.

As a dedicated Management Information Systems major with a minor in Marketing at the University of Texas at Austin, I am thrilled to begin my tutoring journey.

I am excited to share my expertise with fellow students, fostering a collaborative learning environment. Fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish, I bring a multilingual perspective that caters to a diverse range of students. I believe in the power of education to transform lives, and I am eager to contribute to that transformation as a tutor. Let's embark on this learning journey together, where questions are embraced, and success is a shared achievement!

Hello, this is Akhil. I am an engineering student at The University of Texas at Austin, hard worker, and I enjoy teaching.

My 20 years of experience as a High School classroom teacher of Spanish and Russian has allowed me to grow toward a level of mastery in the teaching of young adults that has resulted in immeasurable student growth. My National Board Certification is evidence that my peers agree. My work at two early college high schools has allowed me to become an Instructional Technology coach for my peers, our students, their families, and the administration of our campuses. My experience in language acquisition as a language learner and pedagogy as a teachers and tutor using the natural method gives me the insight into the learning process needed to be a master teacher and tutor of English, Russian, and Spanish. I also help with SAT preparation.

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 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.

Passion! Zest for life! Love of cheese! These are three qualities that I hold dearly. I hope to bring that passion and high-energy quality to the students who I guide in their journey of learning (unless you have a dairy allergy - I am sorry, but will not force my beliefs upon you). I am a certified teacher in the state of Texas for Social Studies and English, grades 7-12. I just completed a student teaching internship in Lake Travis ISD, where I taught Pre-AP Texas and U.S. History. I received a Bachelor of Arts in History and Italian from The University of Texas at Austin, where I also devoted much of my energy to studying French and English. I studied abroad with the Rome Study Program in 2013, where I delved into Italian language, art, history and of course, food! While pursuing two degrees, I was in the leadership of the Creative Arts & Theatre Organization within the UT Austin Student Unions, There, I not only performed in nearly twenty shows, but also seized the opportunity to direct, compose, and play piano in an original full-scale musical! My involvement in theatrical leadership has developed into my love of teaching, the career I am currently pursuing today. As an educator, my belief is that all students should be pushed to their highest potential in a way that caters to their already expansive list of gifts and talents. The intensity of which I care for my student's success entails that I provide a dynamic, vibrant, and encouraging energy for my students, especially in the fields of college admissions essays, SAT/ACT prep, and AP test prep. I will work with you to ensure you feel prepared, confident, and able to tackle the challenges of your environment - your "stage", per se - and emerge with skills that are translatable to college and even life! And a love of cheese. I wrote my college admissions essay about the life-changing power of goat cheese and was accepted into every single university (including such names as UT Austin, The University of Chicago, Brown University, and NYU) that I applied to. Give me the opportunity to challenge you, and I will help you find your voice and your success as well!

I am currently a freshman at the University of Texas at Austin majoring in business. I went to Friendswood High School and graduated #3 in my class of 545 students.

Hi, I'm a citation master! By day, I help restore buildings; by night, I help students succeed.I have a Master of Science in Historic Preservation and Architecture from the University of Texas at Austin, and a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While both of these degrees are design-oriented, each placed heavy emphasis on research and writing, public speaking, art and general history, logical reasoning, and a clear synthesis and presentation of ideas. I specialize in grammar and writing technique; study skills and organization; public speaking; reading comprehension; world, US, medieval, and art histories; ACT Reading, Writing, and English; AP English Language; and college admissions essays and preparation.I love conducting sessions as "learning labs" where open and honest discourse is the foundation from which critical knowledge is gleaned. My approach is threefold: create an inclusive, welcoming learning community that encourages and rewards exploration and curiosity; present the course material in a way that resonates deeply with each unique student and introduces them to new ideas each week; and foster critical thinking skills that can be applied in all schoolwork. Instead of recitation or simple coverage of lecture and reading material, my goal is to encourage students to consider differing viewpoints, feel comfortable expressing their beliefs, and reflect deeply upon how their values and learning style can translate to all work, both inside and outside of the classroom. Overall, I believe teaching and tutoring should foster skills that afford practical, tangible applications in other courses as well as in personal, professional, and social realms.
