Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at Austin

Hello! I'm currently a Lecturer at UT Arlington in the Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering department. My background is in mechanical engineering and I enjoy teaching a diverse range of subjects in that area. If you have any questions, then please don't hesitate to ask!

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 recently earned my PhD in Plant Biology and was a graduate teaching assistant for 6 years. My teaching experience has centered on honors and standard-level introductory biology and genetics courses, where I have helped students move beyond memorization to achieve deeper conceptual understandings. I strive to create a learning environment where students feel comfortable engaging with challenging material and asking questions. I also lead a science communication club for PhDs & middle schoolers.

I am here to help you understand the concepts brought before you in class and to improve your grasp on the knowledge that must be mastered in the courses that you are in. I will do anything and everything in my power to help the student succeed in his/her course, and I guarantee success in those courses with my assistance. I personalize all lesson plans according to each student, and will work with them to find the best method of teaching to help them obtain a better grasp on the topics presented. I look forward to working with you students to help you succeed!

Hello! I am a college senior at Columbia University studying Political Science with a focus on quantitative methods (regression, applied econometrics, experimental methods). My teaching experience in the past has included SAT/ACT prep, essay revision, mathematics tutoring, and specific SAT Subject Test tutoring. Now that I've almost finished my time as a college student, I would be happy to walk other students through ways to read an academic text, study methods, and specific college coursework questions. I am a previous teacher through Americorps in their summer program for future first gen college students. I look forward to getting to know you!

I have a PhD from Michigan State University in English with a special focus on African American Literature and History and Philosophy of Science. I have taught extensively at large research universities and small liberal arts colleges, covering wide ranges of subjects in writing, literary studies, critical theory, and philosophy of science. I am most proud of my work with STEM students, guiding them through writing classes and humanities and helping them make the most of their studies and develop transferable skills in qualitative analysis and written communication. Finding middle ground between different disciplines and skillsets has not only helped me work with a wide variety of students, but help them thrive in many different environments, as they enter industry, graduate school, medical school, or any future goals. Similarly I have a great deal of experience with GRE prep and applications more broadly, synthesizing the work students do in many disciplines into presentations of their skills and aptitudes.

Not many people can say that they have a view of another country from their back yard, but I can! Being born and raised in El Paso, Texas, many cultural doors were opened for me at a young age. I grew up with a love for enchiladas, chilaquiles, horchata and Spanish. I have been speaking Spanish since I learned how to speak. I took bilingual classes all through my elementary and middle school years and took advanced Spanish classes in high school. I now aspire to share my knowledge and love for the language with others. I look for fun and creative ways to help my students internalize the language. There are so many ways to practice a foreign language and I would love to share my special techniques with you! Being bilingual has enriched my life in so many ways. I hope that with my help, this beautiful language opens doors in the future for you as well!

I've been teaching French in various settings for the past four years, and I'm currently getting my PhD in French Linguistics. I've taught and tutored all ages and all kinds of students, and I particularly enjoy teaching conversational French to people preparing to travel. I believe language learning is the most fun kind of learning, and I make sure that learning French is an enjoyable experience for my students. A lot of people are intimidated by the challenge of learning a new language, even though they already learned one when they were just a baby! I've seen time and again how when languages are taught properly, learning them goes from intimidating to exciting and fun. If you're feeling challenged by French, I can give you the guidance you need to make faster progress than you thought possible.

Hello,My name is Emily. I'm a third year student in pharmacy school at the University of Houston College of Pharmacy. I have a bachelors degree in English from the University of Texas and English is my area of specialty. I have been in the academic world for a very long time and at this point in my life I'd like to help other students achieve the same goals. I can tutor you in English, SAT verbal, and essay writing. I am also very knowledgeable about admission processes for graduate school, especially pharmacy. I like to teach, to explain, and to tutor students. I have plenty of tutoring experience; I have taught for Kumon Learning Center and for the AmeriCorps. But most of all, I know how hard it is being a student, because I am one! I love learning and I consider it a gift to learn something new everyday. So let me teach you something new!

Hi, I'm Felipe. I am a 3rd year pre-med college student studying Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. I first discovered my passion for teaching a few years ago when I began tutoring ACT and SAT for a tutoring company in my hometown of Frisco. Since then, I have gotten deeply involved with teaching. I have gotten to volunteer for non-profit college organizations at underserved Austin elementary schools to encourage kids to go into STEM, I have gotten to help teach for an introductory biomedical engineering laboratory class at UT, and I have been employed by UT's Engineering Student Services to tutor other students in organic chemistry for well over a year. In that time, I have found that I especially enjoy working with high school and college students. My journey as a student is far from over, so everything I teach is something that I have been right in the middle of learning recently. My favorite subject to tutor is organic chemistry. It is something I've been teaching for a long time, and it's a subject I've gotten to understand well. Other subjects I love to tutor include biology, chemistry, physics, and all math through calculus; my career path has required me to synthesize all these subjects rather well. ACT/SAT test prep is also something I enjoy teaching and is something I have experience with. I have started to offer MCAT tutoring, as it is one of the more rigorous exams I have had success with, and a skill I would love to pass on to other aspiring physicians.

Currently a student at the University of Texas at Austin, I am pursuing a Psychology B.S. with ambitions to attend medical school to become a surgeon one day. Since elementary school all the way to college, I have always excelled at math, and I have always enjoyed tutoring/helping my classmates with their difficulties. Specifically, I tutor in Trigonometry, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus AB, Calculus 1, and SAT Math. Every single math-related subject is my favorite honestly because I love being able to dissect a problem and then solve it just like a surgeon. When it comes to math, I believe a student needs to learn and understand every step in solving a problem in order to create a strong foundation for them self. Besides for all these academic information, I personally enjoy playing recreational sports, going out with my friends, and eating tacos.

Hi, I'm Malcolm. I scored in the 99th percentile on the LSAT, and it is my goal to help as many students score in that range as possible. I focus on simplifying the LSAT, and helping students think through the test. It's my fundamental belief that anyone can score really high on the exam, and I would love to help you get there. I currently plan on attending UT Law in 2022, and look forward to helping you get into your top choice school.

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.

Empowering Students in STEM and Test Prep | UT Austin Biomedical Engineering & Pre-Med Hi there! My name is Bilal, and I am currently a junior at the University of Texas at Austin studying Biomedical Engineering on the pre-med track. I know firsthand that upper-level math, science, and high-stakes standardized tests can feel completely overwhelming. But having navigated those same challenges myself, scoring a 34 superscore on the ACT, a 1460 on the SAT, and earning 5s on several AP exams, I have mastered the study strategies required to succeed, and I am passionate about passing those tools on to my students. Over the past few years, I have gained extensive experience tutoring middle and high school students, as well as mentoring my peers in collegiate engineering and pre-health honor societies. My Teaching Philosophy I believe that anyone can master difficult subjects if they truly understand the "why" behind the material. My approach goes far beyond rote memorization. Instead, I focus on: Real-World Analogies: I connect abstract STEM concepts to everyday life so they are easy to visualize and understand. Active Recall & Spaced Repetition: I teach the exact evidence-based study methods I use in my own rigorous pre-med courses to ensure long-term retention. Building Confidence: I break complex problems down into logical, bite-sized steps, helping students rebuild their academic confidence through small, consistent wins. Subjects I Tutor I specialize in middle school, high school, and early-college level courses, including: Test Prep: Comprehensive SAT and ACT prep (all sections) Math: Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus Science: Chemistry and Physics There is absolutely no better feeling than seeing a student's face light up when a tough topic finally clicks, or hearing that they confidently crushed an exam we worked on together. Whether you are aiming for a top-percentile test score or just trying to master a difficult chemistry class, I would love the opportunity to help you reach your goals.

Hi, I am a University of Texas at Austin Master in Professional Accounting graduate who has tutored at every level of my education career. From helping fellow students in high school with math to assisting graduate students with accounting as a TA, I understand the impact a good tutor can have not only on the bottom line grade but on overall confidence in a subject. Studying for the CPA exam (and scoring FAR-93, AUD-90, BEC-95, REG-94) puts me in a unique position to break complicated accounting subjects into their most basic components. Most of all I am genuinely passionate about helping others succeed!

I am a graduate from The University of Texas at Austin with degrees in math and physics. I also have a master's degree in physics from Texas A&M University-Commerce. I am very passionate about math, physics, and astronomy and I wish to share this passion with students. I hope to accomplish this by helping students to see the relevance of these fields in their daily lives and future careers. I also attempt to make my lessons engaging by using YouTube videos and PhET simulations where possible.. Practice is essential to getting an understanding of math and physics, and I will be there to assist students and offer encouragement as they work through problems.

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. My hobbies include basketball (huge Rockets fan), music, as well as playing with my two dogs. My strongest teaching subjects would be those that are math related, such as algebra and calculus. Macroeconomics is also one of my strengths, as I took the AP class for it in high school and am focusing on business in college. I am blessed to have the opportunity to help others learn while learning more myself in the process. Can't wait to get started with you!

I believe the key to successful teaching is getting to know each learner and finding out what interests them and how they best learn.I graduated from UT Austin, and hold a current teaching certificate. I am passionate about teaching and have experience teaching and tutoring learners from diverse backgrounds and ages. I will strive to create interesting lessons or tutoring help that caters to your unique need.

I attended UT Austin for my undergraduate degree and majored in biology. I am currently a fourth-year medical student. I had the opportunity in undergrad to be a learning assistant at UT Austin in general chemistry, a Peer Mentor in genetics and a tutor at the Sanger Learning Center at UT Austin for general chemistry, biology, cell biology and genetics. I enjoy tutoring students and helping them to avoid the frustration and stress that often comes with learning new, challenging material by breaking it down into easily understood pieces. Outside of academics, I enjoy playing tennis and taking puppy on walks!

I am currently an attorney in Houston. I went to the University of Texas, Austin (Plan II, Classics, and Sanskrit), and then went to the University of Michigan Law School. I am drawn to tutoring because I felt I had to learn a lot of things the hard way in my career path and would like to make things easier for others! I am passionate about classics and literature as well as law, and look forward to helping students beyond tutoring sessions as they start to build their careers.

I'm a sophomore undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biology! Though I am a science major and love to tutor high school biology and chemistry, I also enjoy teaching math topics, such as Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Pre Calculus, and SAT (including PSAT) Prep topics, such as SAT Reading, SAT Writing, and SAT Essay. I would love to get to know you and your learning style to allow me to aid your learning as successfully as possible!

An NYU graduate with a masters and bachelors in psychology specializing in clinical psychology and neuroscience.

I am Pre-med and also hoping to receive my teaching certificate for composite science in the fall.Outside of academia, I enjoy rock-climbing, hiking, and music. I love taking my pup on adventures throughout the Austin area and just being outside in general.

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.

Hi there. Making art with others is my favorite way to get to know people. Learning in and through creativity is my professional passion, and I am eager to explore and discover with my students.

I am a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's Degree in both Human Biology and Psychology. I think it's important to understand that each individual is a different type of learner and therefore it's important to cater to each person's individual learning style. I will try my best to help students grasp concepts in a way that helps them understand the concepts better and will help them succeed. I know it can be hard for students to get individual help in school so I will try my best to help them using the best of my abilities and give them the individual attention that they need. I would make sure I understand the best way each student learns and then do my best to teach them from that point of view.

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin. I received a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering degree with focus on robotics. I am due to graduate this December with a Master of Science in Applied Mathematics from Tarleton State University. I have several years of experience in higher education. In my two years at Tarleton State University I have taught various levels of college algebra. I have also taught at ITT Technical Institute for two years, covering many electronics and programming classes. I enjoy helping students to see difficult subjects like mathematics and programming in a different light, making the material a little less scary and a lot more understandable.

I am a graduate student at the University of Texas at Austin pursuing a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering. I graduated magna cum laude with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of New Mexico with a concentration in materials processing and minors in Physics and Mathematics. I started my tutoring career as a supplemental instruction leader at the Santa Fe Community College where I taught students in a Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry course how to study effectively and develop test-taking strategies. Once that appointment ended I was hired as a tutor in subjects ranging from basic math to ordinary differential equations. I also tutored in the following subjects: chemistry, physics, engineering (including AutoCAD), and computer programing. I have put to use my academic knowledge in several internship opportunities allowing me to apply the things I have learned in a real-world setting. I worked at the Los Alamos National Laboratory for 2.5 years studying water purification while pursuing my B.S. I was an Air Force Research Lab Fellow at Kirkland Air Force Base where I studied solid Oxide Fuel Cells for space vehicles. I was also funded by NSF to study bio-compatible smart materials in the Biomedical Engineering department at the University of New Mexico. All of these experiences have helped me hone the skills I learned in the classroom and have given me a wider perspective on science, math, and engineering. I am a published author in three different scientific journals. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and passion with students because I believe it is important to understand how the things they are learning are important in the real world.

I am a student at the University of Texas at Austin. Ever since I was young, I have always been interested in the lives of children--always believing that there was a spark in each and every child, no matter their circumstances or struggles. I've tutored many of my peers in many subjects over the years, but my favorites have always been mathematics, physics, chemistry, and computer science. My philosophy towards teaching is that the student should be learning, not be being taught. A teacher is a guide, and does not teach what to think, but how to think. I always aim to make sure my students completely understand the subjects we are discussing, rather than merely understanding how to apply formulae and equations. In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which enriches my life, running, and the odd hike through the woods.

For as long as I can remember, I've been passionate about Software Development. Since earning my degree in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin, I've gone on to build a successful career as a Software Engineer. Along the way, I've been fortunate enough to mentor and coach many a young developer in the intricacies of the field. It is one of the more satisfying things that I've ever done. I love helping others learn how to program, grow their skill set, and manage their careers.

I truly enjoy the mentoring and coaching aspects of my work and that is the driving reason for providing tutoring to students. I have an excellent and well rounded mix of professional experience and educational foundation which allows me to bring context and examples to topics in order to help students fully understand the concepts being learned.I initially received an undergraduate degree in Information Systems from Texas Tech University and went to work for ExxonMobil as an applications developer and project manager. During my time with ExxonMobil, I had the opportunity to work in multiple business segments and began leading international projects which led me to working on projects in Africa (Chad and Cameroon). I then received a graduate degree from The University of Texas McCombs School of Business, and transitioned to a career in finance and manufacturing with Textron Inc. I served in multiple leadership roles within Textron's various business units which included banking and lending, leading a global manufacturing finance division, and serving as a Corporate Controller and Logistics Director. For the past five years, I have started a few different businesses with the primary entity being Black Hat Consulting Inc which provides strategic consulting services for marketing, finance, real estate clients.I have been a Chartered Financial Analyst since 2010.

I believe that a proper education is crucial in this day and age for all students. As a tutor, I hope to help my students ensure that they fully understand all of their course material so that they are set up for academic success.

Grad student at UHCL in Computer Science.I have a passion for programming and helping other learn to code and the fundamentals of logic needed to think as a programmer.

I'm a University of Texas at Austin graduate with a BSA in Biochemistry. My favorite subjects to tutor are math and science, specifically, I excel at Biology, Chemistry, and any math courses up to Multivariable Calculus.My teaching philosophy is that an excellent teacher should show students where to look, and allow them the opportunity to make realizations and learn. As a person I'm very calm and collected, this shows in my teaching style as I'm extremely patient and have no issues repeating key concepts or explaining things in a different manner.Outside of academics, I enjoy playing tennis, having played at the varsity level at my high school, and more recently I've become interested in Ultimate frisbee. I played two years during my college career and was the captain for one of those years, and still often play at a recreational level.Hopefully, I can help you understand those few things that are giving you a hard time today!

With each of my experiences working with children my passion for education has grown. I first came to Austin to work with a Spanish literacy intervention program through Americorps called A Community for Education (ACE). After my service with ACE I taught at a dual language (Spanish-English) school for five years. I taught kindergarten, first grade, and second grade in math, reading, writing, and science. I am currently a graduate student pursuing my master's in speech language pathology, which I plan to practice in the schools. I believe the care and attention of teachers for students is integral to the development of a healthy, happy child. I enjoy getting to know the children I work with and watch their personalities and minds develop.

I am currently an incoming freshmen at the University of Texas at Austin where I will be receiving as B.S. in Psychology! I just graduated from an early college program, the Texas Academy of Math and Science, where I earned both my high school diploma and Associate degree.I am open to tutoring various subjects, but my strengths and passions lie in math and science. My first unofficial tutoring job was when I was in 7th grade and tutored my neighbor in the grade below for STAAR math and helped her go from barely passing to Commended! Since then, I started tutoring more and was an Algebra I peer tutor and spent my years in high school tutoring my local shelter and also taught English to Afghani university students. As I have also been someone who needed the help of tutors, I have seen how effective proper tutoring is and am passionate about helping others to learn.My tutoring philosophy is: "If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself", which was said by Albert Einstein himself! I help students figure out which specific areas they are struggling in and also cater to different learning styles as each individual is unique. I believe there is no such thing as a silly/stupid question and my goal as a tutor is to create a comfortable environment where students are not afraid to ask questions, which I believe will truly help with improving their learning.

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'm a musician-turned-engineer with a penchant for applying math to everyday situations. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin and have worked in Austin as a civil engineer. I also hold a Master of Music from Indiana University and taught private music lessons for several years before turning to engineering. The upshot to all of this is that I have a lot of experience with one-on-one teaching and applied mathematics. If I am your tutor, you will never have to wonder why you are learning your topic! I keep things relevant to real life and draw lots of connections with other subjects and interests.
