BA The University of Texas at Austin • Current Grad Student, Mathematics Boston College
1+ Years Tutoring

A native Texan, I grew up in Houston and attended St. Thomas High School before moving to Austin to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at The University of Texas at Austin. I graduated from UT just this May with special departmental honors in math for my 20+ hours of graduate level coursework and senior research thesis. Currently, I am a first year pure math PhD student at Boston College.While at UT I worked for three years as an undergraduate teaching assistant and grader for multiple classes, including calculus (I, II, and III) and discrete math. There are few things more enjoyable than being of service to students trying to learn difficult material and seeing the gears in their heads start to turn as their confidence builds. I truly love studying math, and I work hard to communicate the beauty in math to all of my students.Having studied math at an advanced level for a few years now, I have a privileged insight into the rich structure of mathematics. I have worked in fields that are as difficult compared to calculus as calculus is compared to basic multiplication tables. As a result, I have developed a mastery of material from high school and early college level math, and I have spent the last three years practicing the way I communicate math so that assignments stop seeming like lifeless and disconnected assortments of problems. Math is easier to learn when you see it as something to get excited about.Whether you're struggling with a course, looking to get ahead, or want to review for standardized exams, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help you start working toward your goals!

I have been a mentor and tutor in after school programs and in supporting local high school stem competitions since graduating college, for two decades. I enjoy helping students learn the subject matter and I am good at supporting the student in how they learn best. I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering and Electronic Automation. I have studied Spanish and Mandarin for years and have travelled extensively throughout Mexico. I understand how frustrating it can be to not have support in learning. I am here to help students with their learning needs by boosting their confidence and being patient while they learn the topic. I am a believer in going over subject matter in different scenarios in order for the student to not get stuck in a rut. The memory works better if learning is applied this way because the brain will become engaged from the different ways the information is presented. I like to ask a lot of questions to ensure that the student is on track, and I will patiently work with the student until they understand the topic.

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!

Engage the student; instill confidence; explain why the skill is useful(aside from the obvious); get to the core of the problem; try to make it fun.My entire career has been devoted to "knowledge transfer" and much of that has been in the field of education. After receiving a B.A. from the University of Texas in English Literature, and an M.A. from Rutgers University in Comparative Literature, I worked in the corporate world as a writer and trainer.Most recently I have had the opportunity to teach at the university, high school, and middle school levels. I have tutored privately and I have participated in after-school educational programs. In addition, I have worked with children as a Director for school and summer theater programs.My favorite subjects to tutor are reading and writing. The ability to communicate (and reading is receiving communication) is one of the most important skills we can have. As I told the budding scientists in my writing classes at F.I.T., "your ability to communicate well will determine whether you are working in the lab or running the lab."

I'm a student at UT Austin and I really enjoy working with students and helping things finally click for them. I've worked with kids in places like Kumon and STEAM programs, so I'm used to explaining things in different ways depending on how someone learns. I try to keep tutoring relaxed and encouraging. A lot of students already know more than they think, they just need things broken down a bit differently or a little more confidence to work through problems on their own. That's usually what I focus on. I'm especially comfortable with math, reading, and test prep, and I like helping students build strategies they can actually use instead of just memorizing steps. My goal is to make sessions feel productive but not stressful.

Upon graduation, I took a job in Houston as a Technology Consultant before giving that up and embarking on a year-long road trip around the United States.Throughout college I worked as a freelance tutor, tutoring students in a variety of different subjects, from business classes such as Accounting and Finance, to more inclusive subjects like College Algebra and Calculus. I enjoy working with high school and college students, especially in regards to test preparation for standardized exams. I specialize in tutoring for the GRE, and I am a firm believer that a person can always do better than they previously thought possible. For me, the first step in achieving your educational goals is to re-orient yourself in regards to education. I find it important to know why what you are learning is useful, and I teach accordingly. Math is not only necessary for great test scores, it is incredibly helpful in your everyday life. The same goes for the verbal-oriented subjects.Outside of my academic boundaries, I enjoy reading, writing, and being outdoors.

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 graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in May 2012 and received a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy and Russian Language & Culture. After graduation, I worked for a year as an editor for a small fiction e-publishing company in Austin. During this year, I became certified as an ESL teacher, and in September 2013 I moved to Ukraine to teach English. While in Ukraine, I taught students of all skill levels, ages, and professional backgrounds. After nearly a year and a half of teaching in Ukraine, I decided to return to the US to study for the LSAT and apply to law schools with the goal of one day practicing immigration law. As a teacher, my strongest subjects are anything related to English, including Reading, Writing, and Literature. I also have a passion for foreign languages and have spent multiple years studying both Spanish and Russian, and as such would be happy to tutor any students of either language. I believe that a college education is vital for success in this country, and for better or worse standardized testing is a necessary step in applying to colleges. Though these tests can seem daunting, I believe that with the right amount of hard work and preparation, each student can achieve the results he or she desires. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I like nothing more than a good book or movie that makes me think, though I also enjoy watching and playing sports, especially soccer.

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.

BA The University of Texas at Austin
1+ Years Tutoring

My Alma mater is the University of Texas at Austin. I graduated with a B.A. in History with Special Honors (with a focus on the American Civil War) and a B.S. in Biology with Honors. I tutored a student in middle school (reading comprehension) and another student in high school (ESL), but most of my experience in tutoring is centered around my time in college as I worked as a tutor at the University of Texas Learning Center. Here, I worked both as a group tutor and as a personal one-on-one tutor for general chemistry and organic chemistry for 3 years. It was during this time that I developed a personal philosophy in teaching - breaking things down to its simplest components and making them relevant to the student. Richard Feynman, a physicist known to have been one of the most brilliant minds in the 20th century, was renowned for explaining extremely abstract and difficult concepts in very simple laymen terms so that average Americans could understand concepts that are described by mathematical equations only a select few could understand. I take much inspiration from examples like this when trying to teach - use everyday things to simplify concepts for students whether it's using sports or fashion or current events or even gossip to help in not just learning but also in remembering the lesson. I've found that helps students make sense of things as well as make it somewhat more entertaining and little bit less painful. I view an education in two different lights - it should be a means to an end in ensuring a better career and, ultimately, a better life as it has for the past generation as our parents used it to climb the social ladder. However, people should also realize that learning for the sake of learning ought to be embraced as it helps you in your journey through life - keeping up with current events or understanding basic economic principles can help individuals navigate through the challenges of finding a job/career that will both sustain you and your family while also make you happy in that career choice.Given my diverse academic background, I'm able to tutor a variety of subjects - algebra, geometry, chemistry, biology, writing, study skills, and Korean (I grew up speaking, reading, and writing at home much like Hispanic Americans use Spanish at home). My favorite subjects to teach are chemistry and algebra because they feel like jigsaw puzzles that at first look very difficult but gradually become easier with time.Outside of work/school, I enjoy reading for leisure, mostly non-fiction (history, medicine, science), but I don't hesitate in picking fiction up after reading a good review (currently, I am finishing the last book in the series A Song of Ice and Fire aka Game of Thrones). I am an avid fan of watching and playing basketball. Of course, I root for the Dallas Mavericks and have been since I started watching the NBA. I also enjoy watching the Texas Longhorns football team. Like many young men, I am also an avid participant of Fantasy Football (I can proudly say that I have won the league championship once in it's constantly competitive 5-year existence). Other hobbies include traveling, running, and obstacle courses (Spartan races are awesome).

I got my Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin and I have solid background in science majors, especially math and physics. I've been working as a math and physics tutor for four years in undergrad as well as grad school, so I know exactly where students struggle and am very eager to help. I also worked as a teaching assistant for Fluid Mechanics. I watch football, soccer, and LOL in my spare time.

I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Physics degree (Bachelor of Science) in May 2015. I currently live near campus and look forward to tutoring students in the area. I love teaching and helping with math and physics! I also have a strong writing background that comes from independently-publishing a novel, so I am happy to help you with the flow and format of your writing assignments. (I m also a bit of a grammar Nazi.)Interesting things about me: I researched solar cell development in Germany for a summer (ich spreche ein bischen Deutsch), was a quarterfinalist for the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award (2013), and I collect bookmarks. :)

I am currently a student at The University of Texas at Austin working towards completing my BS in Computational Biology. I have always shared a passion for tutoring subjects I enjoy, especially those pertaining to the biological sciences. I graduated from high school after completing both the GCSE and the IB Diploma, which were two rigorous programs that made me empathetic towards the struggles students endure when facing the challenging nature of high school. As a result, I chose to start tutoring the subjects I excelled at, such as GCSE Geography and IB Biology. I also have experience in teaching Spanish Literature, Introductory Biology, and Coordinated Sciences. I do have a preference for teaching Biology at multiple levels, but I also enjoy any of the other subjects listed above. To me, education is the foundation of a stable life, and learning is an "acquired taste" that you work towards one day at a time. I am deeply passionate about learning and believe wholeheartedly that anyone can enjoy learning if you attune your approach to meet the student's interests. In my spare time, I enjoy playing soccer, squash, hiking in nature, and filmmaking/film studies.

One of my favorite things about teaching is getting students excited to learn with fun and engaging lessons. This enables them to be successful, to feel good about themselves, and to want to learn more. As a lifelong Spanish speaker who lived in Mexico for 5.5 years, I love teaching Spanish. I graduated with a BA in Drama from UT Austin, and received my MA in Educational Psychology and Counseling from UTSA. I am also certified to teach Drama and Spanish, have taught both subjects, and have tutored children and adults in Spanish.
