The standard sympy integration dos indeed use techniques that may differ a  
lot from what a student would use by hand. However, sympy also has a module 
called manualintegrate, that tries to follow the usual techniques taught to 
students to integrate by hand: rewrite the integrand, change of variables, 
integration by parts... (and only if those fail, fallback to more powerful 
methods). I have run it over a battery of examples taken from a first year 
calculus course, and the result really follows the steps that one would 
expect from a student in a reasonably high precentage of the cases. You can 
test it in https://www.sympygamma.com for example by
