About Kathryn


Bio

Hi! I'm Kathryn, a senior Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin holding both a Pre-Med Certificate and a Forensic Science Certificate. My passion for science has taken me from the classroom to the research lab, where I work on DNA sequencing projects involving plant genetics. Through my coursework and research experience, I've developed a strong foundation in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Genetics, and scientific problem-solving.

Hi! I'm Kathryn, a senior Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin holding both a Pre-Med Certificate and a Forensic Science Certificate. My passion for science has taken me from the classroom to the research lab, where I work on DNA sequencing projects involving plant genetics. Through my coursework and research experience, I've developed a strong foundation in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Genetics, and scientific problem-solving.

Over the years, I've spent a lot of time helping classmates, friends, and younger students work through challenging concepts in both science and math. Whether it was preparing for an exam, breaking down complex biological processes, or helping someone understand a difficult math problem, I discovered that I genuinely enjoy finding new ways to explain concepts until they finally click.

One thing I've learned throughout my academic journey is that success in STEM subjects often comes down to building strong problem-solving skills and confidence. Mathematics, in particular, has played a huge role in my success in biology research and science courses, teaching me how to think critically, analyze data, and approach complex problems step by step. These are skills I love helping students develop for themselves.

My tutoring style is patient, encouraging, and strategy-focused. Whether you're working to improve your math skills, pass Introductory Biology, prepare for AP Biology, or strengthen your overall study habits, I'll meet you where you are and help create a plan that fits your learning style. I'm also happy to share insights about pre-med coursework, undergraduate research, and navigating college science classes for students interested in those paths.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I am a senior Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong academic foundation in college-level mathematics, including algebra, statistics, and quantitative problem-solving used throughout my coursework and lab research. I regularly apply mathematical reasoning in DNA sequencing and data analysis in a research lab setting, which has strengthened my ability to work with complex problems in a clear, step-by-step way. In addition to my academic background, I have experience helping students prepare for standardized tests by breaking down ACT Math concepts into manageable strategies, focusing on accuracy, pacing, and pattern recognition. I am confident working with topics ranging from foundational algebra and geometry to more advanced problem-solving skills commonly seen on the ACT. My goal is to help students not only improve their scores, but also build confidence in approaching math questions efficiently and strategically.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I am a senior Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong academic background in mathematics and quantitative problem-solving. Throughout my coursework and research experience in a DNA sequencing lab, I regularly apply algebraic reasoning, data analysis, and step-by-step problem-solving skills in real-world scientific contexts. I have experience tutoring and supporting students in Algebra 1 and Algebra 2, helping them build confidence with foundational and intermediate math concepts. I focus on breaking down topics such as linear equations, inequalities, functions, systems of equations, quadratics, factoring, and graphing into clear, manageable steps that are easier to understand and apply. My tutoring approach emphasizes patience, clarity, and strategy. I work with students to strengthen both their understanding of core algebraic concepts and their ability to solve problems efficiently and accurately, whether they are working to improve classroom performance or prepare for exams.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I am a senior Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong academic background in mathematics and quantitative problem-solving. In both coursework and research in a DNA sequencing lab, I frequently use algebraic reasoning, data interpretation, and structured problem-solving skills. I have experience tutoring Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 students, helping them build a strong foundation in topics such as linear equations, inequalities, functions, systems of equations, quadratics, factoring, and graphing. I focus on breaking down concepts into clear, step-by-step methods that make even challenging problems more approachable. My tutoring approach is patient, supportive, and strategy-focused. I aim to help students not only improve their grades, but also develop long-term confidence and independence in math.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

Hi there! I’m Kathryn, and I’m a student at the University of Texas at Austin who really loves math and science. Even though I study big college subjects now, I also really enjoy helping younger students learn the basics of math in a fun and easy way. I’ve helped students practice things like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and word problems. I like to take things step by step and explain them in a way that makes sense, so math doesn’t feel scary or confusing. My goal is to be patient, kind, and encouraging while we learn together. I want you to feel confident, ask lots of questions, and even start to enjoy solving math problems. We’ll go at your pace and make sure everything clicks before moving on!
