Hello! I am a Physics Major at the University of Texas at Austin. As such, much of the material of school and numerous AP courses are still fresh on my mind, on top of, and especially, the physics and mathematics from UT. I have tutored such topics as UIL Number Sense, essay-writing, and calculus but, having kept most of their materials, am willing to touch up on any high school or college course that I have taken (SEE Photos) to tutor for it. Further, I am willing to help at the middle school and elementary level, having both my mom being an elementary teacher and some experience at UT myself. I have a history of doing well on tests includin

Anshika M. says, "I had the privilege of being tutored by an exceptional physics and math tutor, and I cannot praise his skills and teaching techniques enough. From the outset, it was evident that he possessed a profound understanding of the subjects, effortlessly navigating complex concepts with clarity and precision. His teaching approach was nothing short of transformative. Rather than resorting to rote memorization, he emphasized understanding the underlying principles. This not only deepened my comprehension but also equipped me with the tools to tackle a myriad of problems independently. His ability to break down intricate theories into digestible components made even the most challenging topics accessible. One aspect that truly set him apart was his patience. No question was deemed too basic, and he encouraged a supportive and inclusive learning environment. His willingness to revisit topics until they were fully grasped demonstrated a commitment to each student's success. This approach fostered a sense of confidence, allowing me to approach problem-solving with newfound assurance. Beyond the curriculum, he seamlessly integrated real-world applications into our sessions, illustrating how physics and math were not abstract concepts confined to textbooks but essential tools applicable to everyday scenarios. This holistic approach not only made the material more engaging but underscored the practical relevance of what we were learning." Read more

I graduated from the University of Tulsa with a bachelor in engineering physics and a minor in mathematics. I have experience tutoring Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, and Physics 1 with students from middle school through college. I have a strong focus on making sure the fundamentals of the subject are understood instead of simply working through problems to complete the current assignment. I also use a computer in sessions to familiarize students with various learning recourses, as well as utilizing these recourses during sessions. I have always been fascinated with math and science, and I hope that I can spread some of my enthusia

I graduated with a B.S. in Neuroscience from the University of Texas at Austin. During this time I earned my teaching certificate through the UTeach program offered for S.T.E.M. majors, learning about the curiosity and exploration needed for a brain to learn and understand new topics. After graduation, I taught high school Biology at Glenn High School in Leander ISD for two years. Now I am pursuing a profession in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and am currently earning my Master's degree in Data Science. Despite shifting careers I still find immense joy in helping others reach that “Oooh, I understand now!” moment. With a backg

Reviews for Austin math tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Austin area.
Heather R.
He is very knowledgeable and personable. Always punctual and checks in before school breaks to see if we would like to have a session or skip. He is able to relate really well with my son and we have had him tutor our oldest daughter and now our son. He has been our families tutor for 4 years now. We can't imagine having anyone else tutor our children in math and engineering.

His methodological approach in making sure that you understand every little aspect of a concept makes him unique as a tutor. I must say I passed Calculus class because of him within a short span of time given I didn’t know much about the topics. He is my goto tutors from here on.
