I have lived in Texas all my life. I’ve moved from Houston to Austin and back again. I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I pursued a degree in sound engineering and recording technology with an emphasis in Pre-Med and Pre-Law. I plan on attending an institution where I can achieve a medical doctorate simultaneously with a degree in jurisdictional prudence.Five years at the UT has taught me how to take in complicated information, process it and teach it to fellow students. In a more professional atmosphere, I have helped students achieve their academic goals through tutoring on a high school level.That being said, there is a certain thrill that I have when I see someone comprehend a subject that was previously foreign to them. I have seen the look regarding subjects from an elementary level to a collegiate level. Regardless of what subject I am working with someone on, I will strive to make sure the student understands.Personally, I have an easily approachable personality. I’m friendly and easy for students and parents to get to know and trust. It’s difficult to teach someone unless there is a foundation of trust between the two parties and my disposition makes it easy to achieve that relationship.I have many hobbies. Primarily I love to practice my violin. I have been playing since I was two years old. My parents put a stick in one hand and a cardboard box in the other till I could handle the real thing. Other hobbies include fencing, reading, swimming and skiing.

I am currently a Teaching Assistant for a Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 class at the University of Texas, where I work with smaller and larger groups of students to correct misconceptions and deepen understanding. Before moving to the area, I was a full-time math teacher in Boston for 4 years, where I was in charge of writing and developing differentiated lesson plans based on students' learning types and abilities, while creating an atmosphere that is conducive to student learning and fosters confidence both socially and mathematically. I am able to transfer this to one-on-one tutoring sessions and find the best way to help my students reach their full potential. I am confident in my mathematical knowledge, but even more so in my ability to use hands-on lessons to create an untapped love of mathematics.

Education has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. On my first day of medical school, we were told that the term "doctor" comes from the Latin "docere" meaning "to teach." Given this enormous responsibility, I find that I cannot help but spread my knowledge that I have attained over my 20 year-long education career.As a medical student, I know how important it is to succeed in school. While in college, I personally was a Varsity Tutors client and found that it brought me much success in my academic success. I wish, now, to pay it forward and impart my knowledge over the topics I consider my speciality.By working with several students over the years, I have developed teaching methods dependent on the type of student I am working with. Having a solid foundation to learn and good study skills is incomparable when pursuing higher education, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. I also know learning techniques that will improve long-term retention.While attending the University of Texas at Austin, I majored in biology and completed a certificate program in the foundations of business. I consider the fields of science and math to be my strengths and know how to teach these to improve one's knowledge base. As a 4th year medical student, I have also studied for and taken several standardized exams, including medical licensing exams, and I know that the approach to these is different that an exam for class.Every subject I teach is one I have studied extensively in the past, either through taking Advanced Placement classes in high school, college coursework, or within my medical curriculum. I have worked with several students in the past ranging from preschool to medical student, and have been blessed to see them improve over the course of my tutelage.If you have any questions for me, or would like more information into my credentials, I would love to be of more assistance and look forward to hearing from you!

I have been tutoring students for the past 4 years through in-person centers like Kumon and Gideon, as well as through virtual platforms. Academically, I am currently studying Business at the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin. I specialize in elementary reading and math as well as standardized preparation, and I approach each tutoring session with one goal: to create a space where students feel supported, encouraged, and capable of succeeding. I tailor every lesson to the student in front of me, whether that means breaking down complex concepts, using interactive learning strategies, or simply helping them believe in their own potential. What drives me most is seeing the transformation that happens when a student realizes they can do something they once thought was impossible. Personalized learning doesn't just improve scores; it changes mindsets towards learning. That's the impact I hope I am able to make with every student.

After receiving my Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin and my Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M University, I spent the next 15 years in the Engineering industry, working as a Heat Transfer Design Engineer, Manufacturing Engineer, and Project Manager. Throughout my college years, and shortly afterwards, I tutored several students in subject areas of math and physics. For me, there is nothing more personally rewarding that seeing the mental "light bulb" turn on in a students eyes when they grasp a difficult concept for the first time. My tutoring philosophy is to teach concepts, rather than focusing on memorization. Concepts are best grasped via a methodical, logical, and consistent approach to problem solving. As such, my favorite subjects to tutor are most math classes (elementary math, all algebra levels, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, statistics); and science classes (physical science, physics and astronomy). I am also available to tutor Mechanical and Industrial Engineering courses. Some of my personal hobbies include playing golf, collecting coins, astronomy and astrophotography, and stock trading. I look forward to helping you or your child excel in the classroom!

As a kid, for my first few years of school I attended a bilingual Montessori program called Intercultura. There, I discovered the joy of organic learning. I eventually went on to study in more traditional schooling environments, including majoring in Economics at Washington University in St. Louis. However, I never forgot Intercultura and the freedom it allowed me to pursue my budding academic interests. I have tried to bring that same principle of student self-construction into my role as a tutor; whether I've been preparing collegians for the LSAT, or helping kindergarteners learn to read. I enjoy working with each student to find the best way for him/her to attack the subject material. I am able to tutor on a variety of subjects, but I'm especially passionate about test prep! I'm currently traveling around Europe and South America, before I start law school at the University of Texas this fall.

MS The University of Texas at Dallas • BA The University of Texas at Austin
2+ Years Tutoring

Personal Facts and Style: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Native English Speaker and No Accent (These are important to some students) Patient and Friendly Like to explain things step by step and write a lot on the white board! ALWAYS open to questions and suggestions from students and parents Background: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have always enjoyed teaching new concepts to people, whether formally or informally. To paraphrase an old TV series title, I would say "Have books, will travel" to describe my passion for teaching. Of course, now these "books" are often online, and we travel with laptops and tablets. But learning will always be associated with the word books, in my opinion. My experience includes all levels of mathematics, including calculus, business calculus, and multi-variable calculus. I also love teaching the fundamentals such as algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. I am very comfortable in teaching computer-based topics such as Cloud Computing concepts as well as specifics for Amazon Web Services (AWS) Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Tutoring Approach: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When tutoring, I first try to understand the student's specific goals and needs. Maybe it's help with HW. Maybe it's general concepts. Perhaps it's a standardized test such as AP, SAT, GRE. What does the student need and what are his/her goals? How can I help? That's my approach. I try to make sessions interactive to make the learning process interesting. This also helps reinforce student learning. For 1-1 sessions, this is relatively easy to do. For group sessions, I try to ask students if they understand, and I give them time to solve the problems that I present. Subjects of Interest to Me (not a complete list) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Science is awesome right? From the biochemical reactions inside of our cells to the extreme biological adaptations of deep-diving sperm whales to the long distance migration of some birds, nature never ceases to amaze me. I love Biology (especially Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Cancer Biology), Chemistry (especially Biochemistry and Organic Chemistry), and Physics (Classical and Modern). I enjoy tutoring in these subjects as stand-alone or as part of the MCAT exam. Current Endeavors ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am currently working on Machine Learning (ML), and specifically neural networks. I use Python (with the Tensor Flow and Kera packages) and Jupyter Notebooks. I also use various tools in the cloud, and I set up billing alerts and cost constraints to ensure that I stay within my prescribed budget. I am also analyzing data such as my own Apple health data (XML format). There are many tools available for data analysis. I like using Microsoft Fabric along with the Azure Cloud, as it provides a good end-to-end solution.

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 am passionate about helping students feel more confident and successful in their learning. During my undergraduate studies I tutored peers in French. After graduating from college I taught conversational English in Paris, which nurtured my interest in helping English Language Learners. I love explaining the shades of meaning in words, strengthening students' reading comprehension, and building their writing skills. I believe patience and kindness are key to student success. As a graduate student in a field called Learning Technologies, I am constantly discovering which educational approaches best help students.I am a great tutor because I believe in finding out why students have certain road blocks to learning and crafting an approach that helps them overcome those obstacles. I am patient and I understand the importance of explaining a concept without assuming prior knowledge or making the learner feel patronized.In my free time I enjoy yoga, running, playing with dogs, and checking out design blogs.
