Hi there! I'm Rebecca, a junior at the University of Texas at Austin, where I double major in Psychology and Humanities Honors - Developmental Trauma in Children and Medicine on a Pre-Med track, where I've received A's in all but two classes. Throughout my past several years of tutoring, I’ve found that learning is most effective when teachers further engage with students, such as by incorporating a joke, showing personality, and being approachable. I work to bring those qualities into every lesson!
I tutor math and psychology, for which I have over 3 years of tutoring experience. Your goal is my goal, so we work together to achieve and surpass those goals! Every student learns in their own, individual way, so lessons are individualized to be most effective. I collect student feedback at the end of every lesson and implement it in future lessons.
In psychology, I support high school and college students in courses in which I have received A's, including AP Psychology, Intro to Psychology, Social Psychology, Abnormal Psychology/Psychopathology, Developmental Psychology, and courses discussing treatment methods/modalities. No matter your goal, we break down topics into clear, manageable concepts, with real-world examples. I previously worked with high-risk kids at the local state hospital as a front-line staff member, where I learned and honed crisis intervention and de-escalation skills, as well as more diverse and individual presentations of severe mental health disorders.
In math, we build confidence and comprehension in 7th-grade math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, and College Algebra. Together, we focus on finding patterns and developing problem-solving strategies that go beyond math.
Overall, my goal is to help you reach yours! I’m flexible, happy to use any materials that work best for you, and quick to respond. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you!
