Mathematical Muscle. I’ll Be Your Personal Trainer
I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Mathematics from the University of Texas at San Antonio. I finished there with a 4.0 GPA while in the graduate program. I then was rewarded with the South Texas Fellowship to attend the University of Texas at Austin as a doctorate student.
I have several years’ experience as a college professor. I have learned in that time how to present information so that it is not only understandable but meaningful to the persons learning. I not only understand the…

Olivia Weinberg O. from Plano, TX Brandon saved me with his help for Complex Variables and Functions. He was extremely patient and helped me review old concepts to better understand new ones. He worked the problems through with me but always made sure that I could do them on my own. If there was a problem that we couldn't get during our session, he would work on it later and text me with solutions. He was willing to work for extended periods of time (sometimes three to four hours) and start sessions late to accommodate my busy schedule. He also genuinely cared about how I did in the class. I highly recommend Brandon as a tutor and know that I will use his help again in the future.
Dustin L. from Austin, TX I have been working with Brandon for several months now and found him to be very helpful. He has taken me from basic mathematical concepts to algebra to complex forms of graphing and now to calculus. With Brandon's help, I passed my algebra course and am now on track to pass my calculus course. I know that I would not be doing half as well without his instruction. He explains things well without being too confusing, and really helps reinforce the concepts that are covered in class. Overall I feel like I have benefited a lot from Brandon's tutoring, and I look forward to working with him in the future.
Jamie C. from Austin, TX Brandon is by far the best. He helped me so much. I do not know how I could have excelled in College Algebra without him.
Ryan G. from Cedar Park, TX Brandon is great for my sons, who were experiencing a lack of confidence in their mathematical abilities. He is patient, respectful, and the boys enjoy their tutoring sessions.
Dona S. from Austin, TX Brandon conveys a knowledge of his subject matter. His talent for teaching and enthusiasm keeps my granddaughter focused on the lessons. Superior tutor!
Linda M. from Austin, TX My son enjoys his tutoring sessions with Brandon. Brandon is pushing him out of his comfort zone, but in an engaging and interesting way that keeps my son's attention.
Lauren M. from Austin, TX Brandon works with my daughter's strengths to build up the confusing aspects of the subject. She has a smile while she is working and feels more confident about the material after the session!
Erick S. from Austin, TX Brandon has an incredible ability to understand his students' unique approach to mathematics and style. And rather than make you change or adapt to his style, he begins by seeing math the way you see it. He adapts to your style, sees exactly what you see on the paper, and then masterfully (and without you noticing) he walks you into the halls of formal systematic mathematics. This highly experienced tutor reads students like an open book. He knows where you are coming from and where you need to be when it comes to math. My experience with him was awesome. I would highly recommend him to anyone studying math at any level. He is the Michael Jordan of mathematics!!
Erika H. from Boulder, CO Brandon is an outstanding tutor. I specifically needed someone to help me prepare for the math section of the GRE. I had always struggled with math and Brandon was patient with me and explained the material in ways I had never heard before. He took the time to figure out my individual learning style and adjusted his teaching to meet my needs. Not only does he know the material better than anyone, he also has an amazing attitude and shows up to the sessions with enthusiasm-and genuinely celebrates the growth of his students. At no point did I ever feel embarrassed that I didn't know something. I could genuinely learn and ask for help from Brandon with no judgment. After working with Brandon I feel prepared for graduate level mathematics, and as a cherry on top- my GRE score went up 10 points after having Brandon as a tutor!
Louise O. from Austin, TX Brandon is praised every day by my grandson as a wonderful tutor. He is very accommodating and very good to work with.
Diana H. from Harlingen, TX Really pays attention to my child's needs academically and time wise. He is easy to reach and breaks it down step by step.
Cara S. from Austin, TX Brandon very patiently guided me through a lot of GRE math even though I generally score in the same range as a mediocre seventh grader. My score went up 100% of what it was before! (Sadly, still way under the 50th percentile, but that's not Brandon's fault). Never fear. I want to read Shakespeare, not make calculations that will result in the building of bridges, etc. Anyway, I would highly recommend Brandon. He explained complicated ideas simply, came up with great practice questions, and got me miraculous results that might be high enough not to cause any red flags for admissions committees. I call that a win.
Arti L. from Austin, TX Brandon has been teaching me for the past 6 months. He does a great job explaining concepts and checking if you understood, gives helpful tips to improve skills, easy and friendly personality. Always easy to reach. I feel more confident and my grades have really improved. Always available, we have cancelled at the last minute a few times, he worked with us despite his busy schedule, I appreciate his sense of humor and dedication to my understanding the subject. Brandon is always there for me even at short notice. I appreciate his enthusiasm and efforts in improving my math skills.
Julie M. from Austin, TX Brandon often tutors my son in precalculus. My son always enjoys the lessons and is doing very well in math thanks to him. He is a night owl and Brandon is always willing to come late in the evening when he is most alert. This is very helpful!
Aj L. from Austin, TX Always knows the material and can present it in a way that I understand and can learn even difficult topics. I strongly recommend Brandon. He is also very reasonable and flexible with scheduling.

Sheila S. from Austin, TX My son has steadily improving with Brandon's help. He scores have been going up. Brandon is consistent, reliable and conscientious.
Connie S. from Austin, TX Brandon has been tutoring my daughter in PreCalculus for a little while now. He's patient and knows what he's teaching. He gets the student involved by asking questions and walking them through the problem. My daughter is able to work on and finish her assignments in a shorter amount of time because of Brandon's help. She isn't stressed out anymore and her grades have gone up.
Libby D. from Austin, TX Brandon tutored me for Calculus 1, and he was such a huge help. I'm awful at math, but I ended up making an A in the class because of him. He thoroughly understands the material and he explains all of the concepts in a way that is super easy to understand. I couldn't have gotten through Calculus without him, he was a lifesaver.
Valerie T. from Austin, TX Brandon has made a huge difference in our daughter's understanding of math. He is incredibly patient & encouraging.
Susan P. from Austin, TX Brandon is an awesome and reliable tutor! Hired him to work with our daughter, a high school junior, who was struggling with writing. He has been able to help build her confidence in overcoming "writers block". Since school has started back this fall she has shown more ability in tackling her writing assignments.
Kim S. from Austin, TX Brandon tutored our son in geometry last year and is tutoring him in Algebra 2 this year. Our son feels very comfortable with him. He is prompt and thorough. We have been very pleased.

Brandon has been willing to work around some scheduling difficulties and always shows up with a smile on his face. We truly enjoy and are blessed by his tutoring!
Andrew H. from Austin, TX Brandon is a great tutor for all math skill levels. I knew Calculus 1 was going to be tough for me as my background in algebra and trigonometry is poor, but Brandon has been able to translate it for me into a language I can understand. He is patient and works through problems from the ground up, emphasizing important equations that will be found throughout the rest of the course. Brandon is very personable, encouraging, and flexible to schedule with! I absolutely recommend Brandon, he will develop and enhance your math skills he has definitely improved mine!
Le'ann K. from Austin, TX Brandon is one-of-a-kind! SOOO effective! My son was taking Geometry and we set up a weekly schedule to work with Brandon. He was ALWAYS on time and always prepared with materials. My son not only had a clear understanding of the subject at the end but was challenged weekly! He tested exceptionally high on the Final and has great confidence moving forward. I would HIGHLY recommend Brandon as a tutor for ANY math class. His ability to explain concepts at a level where you can understand is remarkable. If it was possible to give more than 5 stars I would! We feel SOOO lucky to have found him!
Jordan B. from Austin, TX Very friendly guy who is willing to meet whenever and doesn't mind staying late to help study for tests and finals. He is truly passionate about the subjects he teaches and is able to teach those like me who do not have the math skills necessary to get through the class without him. 10/10 in my book and I would gladly use him again.
Lori M. from Spicewood, TX My daughter has made tremendous progress with Brandon and she now enjoys doing math. He is very enthusiastic and brings the subject to life. Brandon is very responsive and has been completely flexible with our somewhat changing schedule. I would highly recommend Brandon!
Keith C. from Austin, TX I am currently working on my Masters and it has been forever since I even attempted any Statistics or Probability math, so when it came up in my program, I began to worry about how I was going to grasp this again. I contacted Brandon and he helped me more than I could have imagined. He will be the only tutor that I contact if I need help again.
Robin F. from Austin, TX Brandon works really well with our son and provides ideas for how he can best support him to do better in Algebra. He is very flexible as well, which we appreciate with our busy schedules.
Michael S. from Austin, TX I cannot say enough about Brandon. I started with Brandon during my Calculus 1 course at UT last semester. I was doing poorly in the course, and with Brandon's help, I managed a B. This semester I again sought out Brandon for help with Calculus 2. With Brandon's help, it looks like I may get an A. Brandon is extremely knowledgeable in the subject material, and if he is unsure about something, he will always work out the problem on his own time and return with the solution. He is always punctual, and the infrequent times that he was a few minutes late, I could tell that he had been running to try to be on time. Brandon is also extremely flexible. He is more than willing to move his schedule around to make extra time for a student, and he often works very late into the night if necessary. His rates are a bargain for a tutor of his caliber.
Maureen M. from Austin, TX My daughter has had many tutors over the years and to quote her, "Brandon is THE BEST of the best". He not only thoroughly understands the subject matter, he knows how to teach it and how to break through the confusion. He is one in a million.
Jayashree V. from Austin, TX Brandon was a great tutor helping me prepare for the SAT. His extensive math knowledge and tutoring abilities helped me build skills that helped raise my math SAT score. I would recommend him to anyone needing help with math.
Patricia W. from Buda, TX First session today and Brandon jumped right in despite our having left the Algebra 2 book at home. Brandon was professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable! We left the session and upon closing the door of the car, my son IMMEDIATELY said - "He's the best teacher I've EVER had!" If Brandon will stick with us, he's stuck with us (LOL!)!
Kim A. from Austin, TX He is diligent in making sure the student understands the concept. Brandon comes prepared with materials to help my son understands the subjects. He is patient and my son understand what is being taught. Good tutor.
Otis H. from Tyler, TX Brandon was confident and knowledgeable about the real number system. He approached the concept about operations of addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication without actually performing those operations. Which was very good for me and that's what analysis is all about. If it was not for the distance, I would have scheduled another session. However, I will as soon as logistics permits.
Diana N. from Austin, TX Mr. Brandon is a very considerate tutor who takes time and pride into teaching. He shows equations done step by step and assures that you understand the concept of the problem.
Joni J. from Austin, TX Brandon helped raise my son's calculus grade in a matter of weeks, he helped fill in gaps that my son had from moving to a new high school. He is also really knowledgeable on whatever you need help with math wise. He is able to explain the material in a way that is easy to understand. Brandon is also really easy and flexible to schedule with!!!
Lisa M. from Round Rock, TX Those are my son's words. He really appreciates Brandon. After only a couple of tutoring sessions his grade and confidence in preAP precal have gone up, and all of our stress levels have gone down. Thanks Brandon!
Karen A. from Austin, TX I'm so happy we found Brandon when looking for an Algebra II tutor for my son. We were in desperate need of quick help and Brandon has been very easy to work with. He is very patient and works well with my son and has explained concepts to him that he just didn't grasp in class. Couldn't be more pleased!
Rasheed B. from Killeen, TX Brandon is an awesome tutor. After just one session I was able to see improvements and developments in my own learning. I highly recommend him for one on one tutoring.
Katherine/Burton J. from Austin, TX Brandon was extremely helpful! Honestly, if it weren't for Brandon, I wouldn't have even passed calculus! He is unusually easy to schedule meetings with, and will work around your schedule (he met me at 10 and 11 pm a few times!). Also, there isn't a question or concept in calculus that Brandon can't answer, and he is one of those rare individuals that knows how to keep rephrasing a concept until you can understand it. One of the best tutors I've ever had - I'd give Brandon 10 stars out of 10.
Mary N. from Austin, TX He truly understands the material and is able to explain the problems in more than one way. He is really helping me through my calculus class!!!
Ryan S. from Austin, TX As a sophomore at UT--Austin, I can tell you there is no better choice you can make than having Brandon help you with your math. I am currently taking Calculus 3 (Multivariable), and all I can say is that I really wish I had Brandon as a resource for Calculus 1 and 2. Not only has he helped me improve my performance, but he has also kindled my interest in mathematics through excellent explanations and understanding. Believe it or not, math does become fun when you fully understand what is going on "behind the curtain", and Brandon delivers the backstage pass to every problem. Moreover, he will work with you for hours at a time, allowing you to rep out problem sets or study sessions in one sitting-- he worked with me on campus from 9pm-2am the night before my test to help me prepare, to give just one example. No matter what level of education you are currently at, I promise you Brandon will make more than a positive impact in your work.
