About Luis
I am a junior at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science, and I previously earned my Associate of Science in Natural Sciences at San Jacinto College. My academic background focuses on ecology, biology, and environmental systems, with a particular interest in insect biology and evolution.
I have completed General Entomology with an A and currently study Veterinary Entomology, where I continue developing my understanding of arthropods that impact ecosystems, animals, and human health. In addition to coursework, I worked as a research assistant in an entomology laboratory, where I studied opsin evolution in insects. This experience strengthened my knowledge of insect physiology, evolution, and scientific research methods.
I am also involved in the Central American locust project, where I help with scientific outreach and environmental education. Through this work, I have gained experience explaining scientific concepts clearly to diverse audiences, which has helped me develop strong communication and teaching skills.
As a tutor, my goal is to help students build confidence in scientific subjects while developing a deeper understanding of the material. I focus on clear explanations, structured study strategies, and practical examples so students can succeed in their courses and exams.
I take my work seriously and strive to maintain a professional, supportive, and organized learning environment. I am committed to helping students understand difficult topics and reach their academic goals.

My tutoring focuses on helping students truly understand insects rather than just memorizing facts. I emphasize learning how to recognize insect orders, understand insect morphology, and connect ecological and evolutionary concepts. Because I earned an A in General Entomology and worked as a research assistant studying insect opsin evolution, I like to incorporate both practical identification skills and broader evolutionary ideas into lessons.
I explain difficult concepts step-by-step and break complex topics into manageable parts. I also encourage active learning by having students identify insects, explain structures, and apply concepts themselves rather than only listening to explanations.
These lessons are ideal for:
- Undergraduate students taking General Entomology
- Biology, environmental science, agriculture, or wildlife students
- Students preparing for lab practicals, insect identification exams, or morphology tests
- Anyone who wants help understanding insect diversity and evolution
