Hello, I'm Avi, nice to meet you! I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a dual B.S. in Mathematics and Economics in 2025, where I also earned certificates in computer science and statistics. Afterwards, I completed my M.A. in Economics in 2026 at UT Austin as well. Throughout my educational journey, I found learning difficult course material and work on lengthy projects was far less stressful and much more enjoyable when in collaboration with friends and peers. Moreover, it amazed me when a teacher or peer could break down a complex homework solution to its logical foundation, and likewise, I developed a love for explaining core concepts from the ground up, even regularly volunteering at my local library's math tutoring nights. So, while I was an undergraduate student, I decided to become a peer tutor at the Sanger Learning Center, a free tutoring service provided by the university.
During my three years at Sanger, I tutored college students for over 20 different courses in statistics, calculus, beginner-to-intermediate economics, proof-based mathematics, and Python computer programming, both in one-to-one sessions and drop-in tutoring. I developed close relationships with my recurring tutees, adapting to their learning styles, goals, feelings about the course, and the tools they needed to succeed. Before the session, I would review the class content and create extra practice material, and I would prepare handwritten/typed session notes during for their future review. My goal is to avoid sole reliance on memorization by focusing on grasping the content in ways to build intuition and make problem solving feel less strenuous. I received the Outstanding Tutor Award from Sanger for my demonstrated commitment and high number of positive reviews.
I want to help my students as much as possible and welcome any suggestions to best serve your needs. I am excited for any opportunity to tackle high-school/college mathematics or economics, so please reach out with any questions or to book a session!
