Award-Winning History Tutors serving Pflugerville, TX

...small class sizes for the IB program, as well as the familiarity with the teachers. It was a driving factor in the my college choice. I went to Swarthmore College, a liberal arts college outside of Philadelphia. There, I completed my Bachelor's degree in Latin American Studies. I plan to continue my education and get a Master's in Public Policy. My tutoring philosophy partially comes from what worked with me, but it also from my...

...a Master's in the same field. For years, I've helped my friends and siblings with homework for school, and they've always told me that I had a talent for teaching; I understand concepts very easily, and explanations come easy as well. The goal that I work towards for my students is to bless them holistically, both through my academic skills and through any relationship that I am able to build with them. I believe in...

...started my first company (I am now on my second). I have always valued education but at times saw that teaching methods did not adapt appropriately to the student. There is more than one way to learn material. Because of that I hope to spend some time with students, helping them get the test scores that will allow them to get into their dream school. Throughout my high school and college career I gained extensive...

...St. John's School. I am a middle child, a proud Pitbull puppy owner, and an enthusiastic student. Fun fact; When I was five, my mom signed me up for a youth soccer team, where I discovered that running after a ball in Houston’s humid summer heat- or at any time- for that matter, simply isn’t my forté. When my mom picked up on this fact I was promptly placed into dance class, which I liked...

...for the Prudential Spirit of Community Award. I attended an early college high school program (the Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science) and volunteered in a local middle school, where I worked with struggling students one-on-one. I then transferred to Texas A&M University, where I earned a B.S. in Psychology (with a minor in Neuroscience) in 2013. During college, I tutored several Psychology and Neuroscience courses. After graduating from Texas A&M, I began a graduate...

...analysis, and mathematics. I am also a part-time professor of philosophy. My academic interests range from medieval Scholasticism to contemporary issues in bioethics and law. I believe that tutoring is not only about the transfer of knowledge between the tutor and the student, but also a transfer of skills, which would help the student learn how to find the answer himself or herself and to solve whatever academic problems come his or her way. Equally,...

...a teacher have helped me understand that everyone has different learning speeds and processes. However, I have found that a learning experience which places a heavy emphasis on communication, structure, and critical thinking can play a significant role in cognitive development and long term skill retention. In my experience, communication is the most important aspect of being a tutor. In the classroom, my students can expect me to cover concepts with both depth and clarity....

...The teacher tries to hear what the student wants and then figures what to work on in order to get there. I've been both a student and teacher of guitar, and I try to take that teaching style into my tutoring. I never start by explaining material or by "simplifying" it (because that usually means repeating it again and again!) but by listening to the student and finding out exactly the student already knows and...

...always loved learning and academics in general, and will hopefully soon be pursing a graduate degree in Political Science. I have a large amount of experience tutoring students in late elementary through high school in one-on-one settings. My students have ranged from highly motivated individuals wanting to go from a B+ to an A to students having difficulty passing a tough class, and I strive to match my style and depth of instruction with the...

...in south Austin. Currently, I enjoy yoga, flag football with a social league, boardgames, and trying out new recipes. In the past, I have tutored Math and Reading ages 3-15 and for high school students in various levels of Math, Sciences, and English. I also have some experience aiding college students through coursework while leading group study sessions. I also taught elementary aged children the importance of nutrition and an active lifestyle as an after...

...every painstaking academic endeavor is the opportunity for tremendous success. That's why it's important to me that every student grasps the bigger picture. Education has the opportunity to enrich your life unlike any other endeavor. If you're anything like me, you've experienced academic failure. But as a soon-to-be practicing attorney, I can assure you that failure is not fatal. If we keep putting one foot in front of the other, we will reach our goals.

Hello there! I am a senior International Relations student at the University of Texas at Austin. I have over 4 years of experience in early math and reading tutoring as well as IB/AP test prep and I am super excited to get started.

...adult learners in 1:1 and group settings. I believe that education is a right of all individuals and knowledge is invaluable. Therefore, helping students find their most effective learning styles which they can apply to all their academic endeavours is important to me.

...of Teach For America Hawaii. Through this program I gained teaching experience first in Phoenix, Arizona, where I spent six weeks teaching 6th grade math. For the following two years I taught first grade in Pahala, HI. What makes me a great tutor is a passion for education and personal relationships. I have always taken pride in academic achievement, and I am able to share that enthusiasm for accomplishment with my students through engaging teaching...

...believe education, especially self-education, is the cornerstone of human endeavor. I don't mean this in the traditional sense. School (i.e. traditional education) is a means to an end. What is that end? The formation of thoughtful fellow humans. Thoughtful (thought full!) humans bring inquisition to everything. That means they think about math but also sports and love and history and progress. I hope to help not only with specific learning goals but also to guide...

In the past, I have been a writing mentor at my high school and worked with children through a organization called Breakthrough Austin. I was also a leader for a summer camp where...

...and love everything having to do with math, science, and computer science. My reason for wanting to become a tutor outside of my day job is to help educate the minds of the future. Learning outside of the classroom is very important. As a tutor, I look forward to being an engaging educator, as well as an important learning asset for each of my tutees. As an educator, I have experience tutoring many ages and...
