Bio

Hi! I'm Luke, a Biomedical Engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong background in math, including algebra, precalculus, and calculus. My coursework has trained me to approach problems logically and break complex ideas into clear, manageable steps. Because I use math regularly in my engineering classes, I stay sharp on the material and understand how it’s actually applied, which helps me explain concepts in a way that makes sense rather than just following...

Hi! I'm Luke, a Biomedical Engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong background in math, including algebra, precalculus, and calculus. My coursework has trained me to approach problems logically and break complex ideas into clear, manageable steps. Because I use math regularly in my engineering classes, I stay sharp on the material and understand how it’s actually applied, which helps me explain concepts in a way that makes sense rather than just following formulas.

I have experience helping peers and classmates work through challenging math problems in both one-on-one and small group settings. My tutoring approach focuses on building understanding and confidence by identifying patterns, walking through problems step-by-step, and making sure students can solve similar problems independently. I tailor each session to the student’s needs—whether they’re trying to improve grades, prepare for a test, or strengthen their fundamentals—and my goal is to make math feel more approachable while helping students see real progress.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I scored a perfect 800 on the SAT Math section and am currently a Biomedical Engineering student at UT Austin on the pre-med track. I have strong experience in calculus, algebra, and problem-solving, along with advanced coursework in physics and engineering. I specialize in breaking down difficult concepts into clear, step-by-step methods that students can consistently apply on exams. Through both my academic experience and MCAT preparation, I help students build confidence, accuracy, and test-taking strategy—not just memorize solutions.
Calculus

Calculus

earned a 5 on both AP Calculus AB and BC exams and a perfect 800 on the SAT Math section. As a Biomedical Engineering student at UT Austin, I regularly apply calculus concepts like derivatives, integrals, series, and differential equations in advanced coursework. I specialize in helping students master both the intuition and step-by-step problem-solving needed for success on exams. My approach focuses on recognizing patterns, avoiding common mistakes, and building confidence so students can consistently perform at a high level.
Drums

Drums

I am a two-time Texas All-State drummer and earned First Chair in the state my senior year. I served as drum captain for two years, where I led rehearsals, helped other students improve, and developed strong teaching skills. I am currently a member of the University of Texas drumline, continuing to perform at a high level. I specialize in helping students improve technique, timing, audition preparation, and confidence, whether they are beginners or preparing for competitions.
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I have a strong background in mathematics, including a perfect SAT Math score and top placements in UIL mathematics competitions such as Number Sense and Calculator Applications. As a Biomedical Engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin, I regularly apply math in problem-solving and analytical contexts. I specialize in helping elementary students build a strong foundation in arithmetic, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. My teaching approach focuses on patience, clear explanations, and making math engaging and confidence-building for young learners.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I scored a perfect 800 on the SAT Math section and have a strong foundation in precalculus topics including functions, trigonometry, and algebraic manipulation. As a Biomedical Engineering student at UT Austin, I use these concepts regularly in higher-level math and engineering coursework. I specialize in helping students build strong fundamentals, recognize patterns, and confidently approach complex problems. My teaching focuses on clear explanations, efficient strategies, and preparing students for success in calculus and standardized tests.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I scored a perfect 800 on the SAT Math section and have a strong foundation across algebra, precalculus, and calculus. As a Biomedical Engineering student at UT Austin, I apply math daily in rigorous engineering and science coursework. I specialize in breaking down complex problems into clear, step-by-step solutions while building strong conceptual understanding. My goal is to help students improve quickly, gain confidence, and develop problem-solving skills that carry across all areas of math.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I scored a perfect 800 on the SAT Math section and placed top 10 at the UIL State competition in Number Sense, Calculator, and Mathematics, earning the Top Gun Scholarship. I have a strong mastery of trigonometry, including identities, unit circle, inverse trig, and applications. My competition math background allows me to teach fast, efficient problem-solving strategies alongside deep conceptual understanding. I focus on helping students recognize patterns quickly, avoid common mistakes, and build confidence in solving challenging trig problems.
