Award-Winning Algebra Tutors in Salt Lake City, UT

...really understand and be excited about learning is what makes it worthwhile for me. The key is to spark the fun and excitement of learning within the student. I have tutored primarily middle and high school students but am comfortable with any age. I tutor many subjects, but am especially proficient in the areas of test preparation, math, and Spanish. I took several AP classes, was on the honor roll, and was blessed to receive...

...it makes sense. I am a very logical person, so that is how I will try to convey ideas to you. Step-by-step, you will learn how to solve problems for yourself. I love learning new things and plan to for the rest of my life, so this being said, if I don't know the answer to something I will definitely find it and help you understand by the next time I see you.

...Throughout this time I have greatly enjoyed helping many students increase their understanding of physics. I love seeing my students have a "light-bulb" moment where suddenly everything we discussed makes sense to them. I think it is extremely important for everyone to have (at least) a basic understanding of math and science as this helps us to better understand our world. I am greatly motivated to teach in a way that my students understand the...

...its own sake rather than simply being motivated by grades or test scores. Too often in education, potential goes untapped because it does not teach to individual's needs and is over-focused on results. One of the biggest problems is that when we are focused solely on results or grades, students will fail to develop a love of learning. They will not be self-sufficient and seek knowledge for the rest of their lives, and need constant...

...it. Helping people understand the concepts and have it really click for them was immensely satisfying. You can just see that light in their eyes turn on, and bam! They get it. Those kind of experiences led to my decision to make teaching an integral part of my career. I just recently graduate from BYU with a Bachelor's in Physics and will start graduate school in the fall, with the eventual goal of teaching physics...

...while my husband works on a PhD at Stanford and I love it, but I miss teaching and working with students. I tutor a wide range of subjects including history, writing, and math. I am passionate about each of them for different reasons. History helps us identify bias, see cause and effect, think critically, and learn empathy. Writing helps us synthesize our thoughts into coherent arguments and can even help us understand things more clearly....

My primary goal is to help students become independent, comfortable, and confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught.

Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects...

I have also had opportunities to teach high school students during...

...be able to figure out how to help each individual student understand the material. I have a mind for problem solving, which is why I decided to pursue engineering, so I tend to think of tutoring as a type of problem solving. Not only am I helping the student solve their homework problems, I am also figuring out the reason the student doesn't understand the material in the first place. I also have always enjoyed...

This gives me a knowledge of teaching at various levels and technical background. ... A teacher should help a student breakdown a topic they are struggling with into smaller ideas. This makes it easy to present these small ideas in a way that will help...

...students to enjoy the learning process. I am currently a student at Brigham Young University studying business, so I know how hard it can be to learn about a subject that is difficult, or from a teacher who does not connect well with their students. That is why I strive to teach my students by the principal I learned from Alfred Mercier "What we learn with pleasure we never forget". I learned this first hand...

...those moments happen easier and more often. I love learning and I love Math. Yes, Mathematics is perhaps one of the most beautiful fields for tutoring to transform frustrations into epiphanies. After starting a Chemical Engineering degree in college, I realized my passion was in helping others come to those crucial "aha" moments in their educational journeys. Now, I am pursuing a Mathematics Education degree at BYU and am loving the experience. I have tutored...
