Award-Winning Anatomy Tutors serving San Antonio, TX

...time I worked with him, and it was incredibly rewarding to watch him master concepts that he once found difficult. I hope to be able to help students understand the material they are studying and make it their own. By building an understanding of a subject based on the individual student's strengths, my goal is to help students achieve a lasting mastery that will be available to them throughout their academic career and beyond.

...from medical school (MD) and have completed my Master's in Public Health (MPH). I've been tutoring all my life and am excited to continue with Varsity Tutors! I specialize in most Math and Science subjects, as well as subjects directly related to medical school (and of course the MCAT). I've always enjoyed learning, and I believe anybody can improve in any subject if it's presented to them in the right way. If you're struggling don't...

...may seem unconventional in order to help provide that experience. I also believe that learning can be "fun", and often strive to provide an enjoyable experience for students- one that helps them to learn while having an enjoyable time in the process. I would like very much to assist others to master various learning concepts and I experience a great deal of satisfaction seeing the results of success in this area and the increased levels...

...most superior subjects. The only thing I enjoy more than teaching, is learning, and I hope to instill that same thirst for knowledge in my students with my methods of teaching. As the first of my family to attend college, I am a personification of how education can better an individual, and those around them. In my spare time, I enjoy playing video games, reading comic books, watching movies, and photographing many of San Antonio's...

...Biology from Texas A&M University-Kingsville. For the past few years, I have been teaching a variety of Biology courses at the college level including: Anatomy and Physiology I and II, Introductory Microbiology Laboratory, and Cell Biology Laboratory. My favorite subject to teach is Anatomy and Physiology. I like to take a very hands on approach when tutoring students as well as use exercises to reinforce the material. Outside of work and tutoring, I enjoy attending...

...tutoring session, a student should feel open to ask questions and express concerns. Outside of academics, I enjoy sports, specifically triathlon. I competed on UT's club triathlon team for four years, and I absolutely enjoyed it. I also play tennis when the weather cooperates. I believe the hard work, dedication, teamwork, and drive necessary to succeed in sport carries over to academics. In addition to triathlon, I enjoy pretty much any outdoor activity: hiking, rock...

...Studying global languages and cultures, and coming from a very multilingual family,--which has enabled me to make conversation in 22 languages-- has taught me critical social skills and the essential importance of planning, preparation and communication to effective teaching. I learned that it is imperative to cultivate good relationships with pupils, parents and staff as much as possible to provide an organic and holistic educational experience that integrates the importance, relevance and interconnectedness of all...

...Martinez and I'm currently a junior at the University of Texas at Austin. I've been tutoring since high school, and have a particular interest in math and natural sciences. I'm currently an honors anthropology/ pre-med student at UT Austin while also playing drums and intramural basketball with the school! I take much pride in helping others learn concepts that they previously struggled with while employing a calm environment for you to learn.... Help walk the student...

...help anyone should be able to meet and hopefully even achieve their expectations. Because no two students are the same, I believe that it is important to evaluate what an individual's most effective learning style is. Ideally, this means that each student would come to me and tell me exactly what works for them and what doesn't. However, many students don't know exactly what works best for them, and may not even be aware that...

...because that is where I have the most experience and those are the two subjects that I am most passionate about (although I love Math as well!). I am passionate about the importance of teaching each student individually because every student has their own set of gifts and challenges and what may work for one student may be totally different than what works for another. When I am not teaching and tutoring, I love to...

...given up on. By building successful relationships, I have had a high level of achievement in working with my students and their families. I have witnessed growth of all my students. I provided ongoing support and expertise through comprehensive assessment, planning, implementation, and overall evaluation. I worked with both general and special education students. I have had to re-evaluate how I monitor learner’s progress due to the number of learners I served and have learned...

...in my care. My duties also included conducting individual assessments to determine the areas of learning that the student needed the most help. Additionally, I facilitated workshops, activities, and community events that gave the residents the opportunity to learn life skills and develop relationships. Paired with counseling, I also served as the Aftercare Coordinator where I monitored outcomes by collecting data and contacting former residents to gauge satisfaction of services rendered and offer additional assistance...

...liking. After about two more mentors, I finally selected an intelligent, organized, and serious mentor that was heavily invested in my success. To have a mentor that is invested in your success is a fantastic feeling. Suddenly, my motivation increased, my grades improved and I was accepted into very good colleges and programs. That was my goal. I couldn't reach that goal without my mentor. My mentor taught me more than just English, Writing, ACT/SAT,...

...an honors thesis for the political science department. I took one gap year between UCLA and medical school where I worked in a Neuroscience and Biophysics Research Lab while TAing (teaching assistant) for several biology courses including LS 2, LS 4, and LS23L (Cells, Tissues and Organs, Genetics, and Intro to Biology Lab). I currently attend Drexel University College of Medicine where I am in my final year of MedU al school currently applying for...

...a weekly Girl Scout program in Watts. In high school, I tutored for the SAT as well as teaching swimming lessons for over four years, so I am very confident in my ability to make complicated topics understandable. My favorite area is standardized testing. I love the look on a student's face when they realize that they don't have to be nervous about an exam - that it can actually be really fun if the...

...the General Physics I & II courses. I was also available for tutoring for students taking the course. I really enjoy working with students of all different learning styles and creating a plan that helps them achieve their potential. Tutoring allows me to keep my skills in the sciences fresh, while helping other students. I am passionate about the sciences and like to apply concepts I learn in class to real life situations. In my...

...and an effective communicator. As my dad was a high school math teacher, I also learned a few things from him about how to teach difficult subjects to students. Since I am in medical school, I obviously love science involving anything that has to do with the body, so I would be very excited to assist with biology or other topics in that area. In addition to general coursework, I'm more than happy to help...

...am loving every minute of clinical practice! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Philosophy from University of St Thomas. While an undergraduate student, I enjoyed leading fellow pre-health professional classmates as campus President of HOSA-Future Health Professionals. One of my most unforgettable health care experiences was a two-week medical missions trip which involved extensive teamwork for fundraising and bringing medical supplies to serve a remote and underserved village in...

...being an all-knowing power who lectures on the information, the most beneficial environment for the student is one that feels like a conversation. By creating a dynamic atmosphere between Tutor and student, the student will be able to truly understand the material. Constant collaboration is the key to a student's success and I have spent years mastering this skill. My interests, outside of teaching, include sports, music, and international work. I personally understand the everyday...

...the fundamentals of a subject before trying to focus on specifics, especially in math and science. I try to have a very flexible teaching style, as I know not everybody learns in the same way, and I will always come prepared to teach a subject in multiple ways depending on the student's way of learning. I am outgoing, encouraging and patient, and I will always push my students to achieve to the best of their...
