I am a high school and college level essay writing tutor with a passion for helping young adults thrive through their collegiate career and beyond! My lessons are structured, personalised, and designed to help students develop confidence in their writing abilities. With 5+ years of tutoring across English, the Humanities, and undergraduate admissions, I have helped students build a strong foundation in argumentative and persuasive writing, college admissions essays, and LSAT test prep. My tutoring style focuses on providing structure, guidance, and skill acquisition techniques that will allow students to write with confidence!

Currently I am a MA/MS student at Brandeis University's Heller School of Social Policy. I graduated from Trinity University in San Antonio, TX with a double major in International Studies and Spanish and a double minor in Geology and History. I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Zambia from January 2012-2014 as a grade 5-9 English teacher in an underprivileged school. After school, I led twice weekly test prep sessions for 9th grade. These prep classes covered topics in English, Civics, Geometry, Algebra 1 and Geography. In addition to teaching and conducting test prep, I also individually tutored elementary students in reading and phonics, and led weekly adult literacy classes.I am a great tutor because I genuinely care about my students. Also, I have the patience, ingenuity and compassion to help the student improve in the subject they are struggling with. For example, the year prior to my arrival at the school, only 5% of the 9th grade passed on to 10th grade. However, the following year, thanks to our prep classes and the students dedication, 85% of the students passed. This dramatic improvement proves my ability to help students achieve in the classroom.

I'm not shy, but if you are it's ok I once was too. I'm a student of the mind and so all of my teachings will be tailored toward each individual or group traits that day. It's ok to fail, but don't allow yourself to quit. Learning is hard sometimes because everyone's brain understands things in a different way. But those differences, when explored, can make learning fun and make complex topics easier to understand. I'm not the old guy who loves hearing his own voice and likes to stand; so I don't lecture. I like to keep teaching/learning process fun, interactive, and creative because no one likes to be bored and confused. So involvement is key!

Hello! Thanks for considering me as a tutor!I started tutoring while I was earning my math degree at Trinity University. Now, I'm retired from a long career in IT at the University of Texas, and am enjoying my next chapter as a math and SAT/ACT tutor.I use a cooperative and positive teaching style that concentrates on building competency and a confident attitude toward the subject matter, letting the student's grasp of the material set the pace so they are neither bored nor overwhelmed, but engaged.

I am a student at Trinity University currently studying biochemistry. I have experience as a tutor my senior year at Clear Lake High School, when I worked as an instructor at Mathnasium. I also volunteered in a program helping students with SAT prep and college applications. My favorite subject to tutor is math, because the clear cut answers of mathematics make it easy for a student to see their progress and build their confidence, which for me is the best part of tutoring! My teaching style is very flexible, as everyone has different needs, but I usually use a lot of socratic questioning. Outside of academics, my interests include singing, soccer, and most recently, rock climbing!

College level coursework can be completely different from that of high school and I am excited to help others make that jump, especially in STEM disciplines. Even if you don't consider yourself to be a math and science person, I believe you can make great progress with the right attitude.I study Engineering Science at Trinity University. I tutor in group sessions for classes like Statics and Dynamics. I've made a list of meaningful study habits and learning strategies that I would like to share.I also graduated high school with an IB Diploma. I am very comfortable with IB Literature (HL), Mathematics, and Theory of Knowledge.

As a dedicated educator with a Bachelor's degree in Neuroscience from Trinity University, I have over 4 years of tutoring experience in subjects including AP Biology, college writing, and study skills. My teaching philosophy emphasizes creating a supportive learning environment where students can confidently engage with complex material. I tailor my methods to accommodate diverse learning styles, ensuring that each student feels valued and motivated. I am currently teaching and strive to connect academic concepts to real-world applications, making learning both engaging and relevant. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring local eateries and crocheting in my free time. My passion for education drives me to inspire students to reach their full potential.

I am a physics nerd who enjoys creating frameworks, analogies, and processes to make solving problems as concrete and objective as possible. I enjoy the wonders of strange and counterintuitive scientific facts,events, etc. I know one of my life's purposes is to help others find their success.

Prior to teaching, I earned my BA in English and Communications from Trinity University, in San Antonio. I tutor students in Reading and Writing, and believe that learning can and should be fun. I approach each session with an open mind, a sense of humor, and the belief that everyone can learn. My truest passion is for literature and writing. I love working one-on-one with people who either need extra help, or who want to go above and beyond academically. People learn in a variety of different ways, so I try to get to know those I work with, in order to ensure that they are learning in a style that makes sense to them, and that they feel confident in.

For over 10 years, I've helped students who feel stuck or overwhelmed in math, reading, and writing gain confidence and master foundational skills through clear, step-by-step instruction that finally makes learning click.

I am a graduate of Trinity University with a B.S. in biology and a minor in spanish. I am available for tutoring in math and science courses, as well as beginner spanish and ACT prep. In my tutoring experience, I have primarily worked with high school students in science and math courses, and have really enjoyed the opportunity to encourage enthusiasm for their classes during these sessions. I work to help my students understand the material at a conceptual level so that they can build upon what they have learned in the future, and also focus on organization in problem-solving methods. Outside of tutoring, I study physical therapy at UCD and spend my free time running and hiking with friends.
