Award-Winning Tutors from The University of Texas at San Antonio

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at San Antonio. I received my Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering with a focus on Computer Architecture. I also received my Jurisprudence Doctoral (J.D.) from St. Mary's University School of law. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which enriches my life and playing soccer.

I love teaching and learning. I work very hard to always try to improve everyone and everything around me. By this, I mean that I always offer my knowledge and skills to those with whom I interact and frequently go out of my way to help those who ask. Additionally, I learn through teaching and greatly enjoy helping others increase their skills, understanding, and knowledge of the world.My background is varied. After high school, I joined the United States Marine Corps for 4 years. After training, I worked for 3 years as primarily a hazmat operator and trainer. I was also deployed to Iraq for a year during Operation Iraqi Freedom.After the Marines, I moved to the San Antonio region to attend the University of Texas at San Antonio. There, I studied Psychology (major) and Business (minor) with Honors Coursework. I made it a point to attend supplemental instruction classes and help study/teach other students. I often arranged study groups, note or course work exchanges, and one-on-one work with other students. For my electives and core curriculum, I preferred to take challenging classes such as college algebra, bio 1 and 2, general chemistry 1, and honors lectures on advanced psychology processes and pathology. As a capstone, I structured, proposed, and wrote an undergraduate thesis finding a positive relation between test anxiety and trauma-related psychopathology symptoms. I truly enjoyed learning and working in my undergraduate career.I then attended graduate school at the University of Central Florida studying Clinical Psychology. During my two years here, I studied advanced research methods, psychopathology, and evidenced-based therapy techniques. Here, I made it a point to type up my class notes to email to my cohort to help me and my fellow students learn. I also interned for 1.5 years doing psychological assessment, individual, and group counseling. Within 1 to 2 years, I hope obtain a license as a professional counselor and to continue my studies to a PhD in Counseling Psychology.On a more personal note, I am excited to work at Varsity Tutors. I like to give back to all peoples and to my community. When I think about my life and my struggles, I know that some type of tutor would have been so helpful for me. I know that my education has helped improve both myself as a person and my quality of life, and I am happy for the opportunity to assist others with their learning and education.

I help students build the executive functioning skills that make everything else easier, things like planning, time management, organization, and breaking big tasks into steps that actually feel doable. My background is in clinical mental health counseling, so I pay close attention to what might be getting in the way for each student, whether that's ADHD, anxiety, or just never having had the chance to learn how to structure their own work.

Teaching Expertise: Absolute Beginners: Patient, clear instruction to build a perfect foundation. Intermediate/Advanced Learners: Focus on nuance, advanced grammar, and cultural subtleties.

I am a 2024 graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio, with a BS in physics and minors in math and computer science. I am currently a 2nd year physics PhD student at Penn State. My passion for tutoring started in high school, where l tutored AP Physics 1, 2, and C, as well as AP Calculus AB and BC. I was also a tutor at Mathnasium, where I tutored algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus. I have worked with students from middle school all the way to advanced college levels. Seeing others experience that 'aha' moment when they understand a complex concept brings me such joy, and it's the reason I'm so passionate about tutoring and mentoring. My philosophy is that there is no such thing as a basic or silly question: I know what it feels like to look at a problem and not even know where to start. Education is about learning new things, and if I am able to help someone learn something new, I've achieved my goal as a tutor.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a Concentration in Neurobiology from the University of Texas at San Antonio. During my final years as an undergraduate, I worked as a supplemental instructor in a Biology course for Non-Bio Majors. After graduation, I attended Texas A&M College of Dentistry, where I tutored high schoolers and undergraduates who were preparing for the Reading Comprehension section of the Dental Admissions Test (DAT). I was honored with Tutor of the Year award by the students and faculty members of that cohort. I am passionate about learning and sharing the developing notions of what it means to be human. This is what led me to teach Anatomy & Physiology to high schoolers, where I was awarded New Teacher of the Year at the school. My philosophy is to learn through teaching, reflection and meditation. Outside of the classroom I teach mindful movement as a certified personal trainer and yoga instructor. As a tutor, I am motivated to meet the student at their current skill level and facilitate in their pursuit of excellence.

I believe in creating the best for ourselves. The world is a difficult place that we underestimate when we are young. At every corner we shall be tested. With a positive attitude, discipline and hard work we can overcome those obstacles. But we should find ways to enjoy ourselves in the process. It's my job to create a comfortable environment where a student can feel at ease and willing to take risks, to experiment, to fail and then get back up. People best learn by falling down. I encourage mistakes and risks. If it's an essay, write whatever you feel. I'm here to tutor, so we can just go back and edit work until it's right. If we never give our students a sense of success and ownership over their work it will hard for them to feel invested in it. I want every student walking away from a sessions saying "I earned that."

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio with a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering. Currently, I am pursuing a Master's in Biotechnology and Commercialization.

I have also mentored peers in STEM fields, emphasizing analytical problem-solving and real-world applications of science and math. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about biology, math, and data analytics because they provide the foundation for so many innovations and discoveries. In my experience working with students, I strive to make learning engaging and approachable by breaking down difficult concepts and tailoring lessons to individual needs. I believe education is transformative, empowering students to achieve their goals and pursue their dreams. In my free time, I enjoy exploring advancements in skincare, staying active, and experimenting with creative hobbies like DIY projects and cooking.

I am an experienced teacher, lover of languages, and taco enthusiast. Born and raised in Texas, I recognized the value of bilingualism from a young age, as well as my interest in teaching. Teaching high school Spanish to a mix of second language learners, heritage learners, and native speakers has allowed me to simultaneously experience two of the most beautiful moments in the world. The first is the "light bulb" moment, when a student grasps a difficult concept, and the second is what I like to call the "Hablas espaol?" moment, when an instant connection is formed with someone who immediately feels comfortable in the knowledge that you understand their mother tongue. I have been working in the field of education as either a tutor or a teacher since 2013. I have tutored and/or taught Spanish, English as a Second Language, and English writing skills. I graduated from Texas State University in 2016 with bachelor's degrees in Spanish and English, and from the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2019 with my master's degree in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL). During the 2016-17 school year, I had the opportunity to teach English in Spain on a Fulbright grant, which exponentially expanded my view of what it means to be a Spanish speaker in terms of linguistic variety and taught me the value of stepping outside of my comfort zone to learn more about other cultures. I also take advantage of every available opportunity to increase my knowledge of linguistics, language teaching and pedagogy, and Spanish as a heritage language. To this end, I served as the vice president of the Texas Language Education Research conference (TEXLER) in 2019, and participated in the 2020 NHLRC heritage language teacher workshop.

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio and Texas Tech University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies (Early Childhood Education) and a Masters of Special Education with a focus on Autism (Autism Certificate). Since graduation, I have worked in a variety of settings with children from birth to 18 years with the majority of my experience as a teacher in public school general education/special education, Kindergarten-5th grade. While I have tutored a broad range of subjects and grade levels, I am most passionate about working with students who have special needs and who may not learn in the traditional manner. I love finding new and creative ways to reach every child, just where they are! Something I always try to do with the students I work with is to ignite a spark that makes them enthusiastic about learning. I strive to provide a solid foundation that creates a want for students to become lifelong learners. My hope is that every student I work with walks away feeling valued and inspired. In my spare time, you can find me immersed in a good book near any body of water, whether it be a pool, the river, or the beach.

I enjoy helping students reach their goals and I want to share my passion for learning. I have been an instructor for children, teens, and adults, and currently work as an Adjunct Art Appreciation Instructor at a community college.

I finished my college education in 2001 by earning my Ph.D. in economics from Texas Tech University. I have been a college-level economics teacher beginning in 1992 and have been teaching economics students since then. Over the years, I have learned much more about the economics discipline itself, how economists do economics. Throughout my career, I have treated all my students as adults, respecting their ideas and opinions, having learned as much from them as they have learned from me. Believing all learning is initiated from a point of knowledge, I want to know where students are in their programs, what are their strengths and weaknesses especially. I help them leverage their strengths in addressing their weaknesses. This in the end makes for a more confident student, someone who not only believes they can accomplish that which they face on their own, but one who will overcome their challenges and will accomplish their goals. This approach is what I have taken over my lifetime in regards my own learning needs and as lifetime learner. I attest this approach to life has been enjoyably fruitful.

I like to devote and give the best effort I can give so we can both succeed in our set goals.

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, with a focus on Early Childhood Education. However, I have had experience teaching at all elementary levels, as well as high school, as a substitute teacher. In recent years I have worked as a fitness instructor for older active adults. I believe that education is important for all and opens many doors. When working with students, I love seeing what I like to call the "light bulb moment" when a concept they've been working to master suddenly makes sense.

I have been teaching Basic Writing and English classes for several years, along with Literature courses. My experience with tutoring comes from when I was a graduate student. I worked as a tutor for the Athletic department. As a tutor, I would work with those students that had missed class the day of the lessons they needed. I reviewed papers and assessed learning. As an instructor, I learned this to be valuable in the classroom. I often held workshops that would require students to exchange their papers with one another. This would help them learn how to catch the mistakes in their own papers as they often did not see it in their own work. I will walk through the writing process with each student, until they are satisfied with the end paper. As writers we know that the hardest part of Writing is starting. I will help you through this process. I love to write, I love to teach others, and I love people!

Hello! I'm a retired early childhood educator with three decades of experience! Throughout my career, my enthusiasm for fostering a love of learning has laid a strong educational foundation for hundreds of children. I have consistently dedicated myself to three key areas: maximizing student performance through joyful and innovative methods, inspiring families of young learners to create a print-rich home where learning is integrated into their daily lives, and encouraging daily reading to or with your child. I have a BA in Early Childhood Education from the University of Texas San Antonio & a Masters in Special Education from Texas State University.

As a tutor the ultimate goal is making learning fun and easy to understand. Subjects like science and math can be explained in ways that everyone can understand so my goal is to gain knowledge on how to effectively tutor each student the way THEY learn best.
