About Austin


Bio

Hello!
I’m Austin. I enjoy finding ways to connect my understanding with that of others, and I hope you’re here for the same reason. Here’s a bit about me:

I graduated summa cum laude from Indiana University in 2019 with a BS in Biochemistry and a math minor. During my four years at IU, I tutored elementary school students in math, reading, and writing, and college students in chemistry and organic chemistry coursework. In the past year I have tutored high school chemistry, middle school...

Hello!
I’m Austin. I enjoy finding ways to connect my understanding with that of others, and I hope you’re here for the same reason. Here’s a bit about me:

I graduated summa cum laude from Indiana University in 2019 with a BS in Biochemistry and a math minor. During my four years at IU, I tutored elementary school students in math, reading, and writing, and college students in chemistry and organic chemistry coursework. In the past year I have tutored high school chemistry, middle school algebra I, and have proofread for college and medical school students. TLDR; I'm open to teaching lots of things to lots of people!

These days I spend most of my time painting and drawing, while working part-time at the University of Chicago Lab school with 4-year olds. If you're looking for an art teacher from an unconventional background, I might be just the right tutor for you.

What do I hope you’ll take from all this?

I have more than five years of experience tutoring students from elementary- to college-age in a number of subjects.

I love to learn, and hope to pass some of that interest to whomever I teach.

Excellent and patient tutor

Austin is very bright, versatile, and quick to understand what to do. He was prompt, friendly and very helpful. I got a lot done in my first session. I am blind, and he worked well with my limitations.

Great tutor!

In the beginning of the year I was struggling horribly with chemistry. My parents were recommended Austin and ever since then my grades have vastly improved! I went from constantly feeling insecure about chemistry to feeling confident with what I know! Austin is great at teaching at your pace and if you don’t understand something he will kindly explain things to you in a different form! If you are still questioning if his tutoring is really worth it I will let you know I went from getting a 50’s on tests to a 90’s!

Fabulous tutor for middle school math, makes kids actually like math

My 13 year old was having problems keeping up with 7th grade advanced algebra, especially after a year and a half of online school. We found Austin and he is a god send. He is patient and dedicated and connects with my son on so many levels. My son is much less anxious and is even telling us about new concepts he and Austin speak about beyond the current week's lesson. I feel like Austin has given my son both confidence and a real interest in math that he was lacking. I cannot recommend Austin enough
