Award-Winning Calculus Tutors in Salt Lake City, UT

...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. In my experience, one of the most important parts of tutoring is setting clear expectations at the beginning and working toward a common goal. Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I teach.

...everything works and that is one of my biggest motivators in school and learning in general. The subjects in which I am most proficient are Calculus, any type of Algebra and test-taking skills. I am also fluent in Spanish having spent two years in Spain where I talked with peoples of various Spanish-speaking countries emphasizing the Castillian accent. I would love to be able to share my enthusiasm for understanding with everyone.

...I teach, I won't move faster than you can handle, but I will try to challenge you to do better. We grow from solving problems and learning from our mistakes. When you study with me, you will learn not only how to do the problem, but how to think through it and why it makes sense. I am a very logical person, so that is how I will try to convey ideas to you. Step-by-step,...

...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 the perspective I get from teaching. It gives me a better overall understanding of the subject,...

...potential as my own personal goal. When I worked as a tutor at the Burbridge Athletics Academic Center at the University of Utah, where I also earned my Bachelors of Science in Physics, I developed a passion for education, which I intend to continue with now that I have moved to Washington DC. I am able to tutor students in Physics, Mathematics, and Computer Science, having developed experience as part of my pursuit of that...

...subject, and because I love the logic of it. Logic puzzles and sudoku puzzles are my favorite things to do on a long car ride when I'm not singing along to the radio! Besides singing, I also enjoy being with friends, whether that be inside playing games, or outside swimming and hiking and being adventurous. I've been tutoring on my own for the last 8 years, in both math and science, and have had lots...

I have been speaking Mandarin Chinese for 13 years of my life, 2 of which I spent acting as a translator for visitors while I was living in Taiwan. Chinese is my life, I have been learning since I...... Student centered and objective...

...in each of my students' success and work hard to help them succeed. Consequently, each of my past tutoring clients has seen significant improvement. I am a big believer in catering to students' learning styles. I pay attention to whether they are an audio, visual, or kinesthetic learner, and then I tutor accordingly. I am currently a junior at Brigham Young University. I am an Applied & Computational Mathematics major with a concentration in Electrical...

I am passionate about mathematics and science and am currently attending the University of Utah as a mechanical engineering student. Like you or your child, I have taken many hard classes and tests and know what it takes to achieve your goals. Often times, test-taking...

...I was always so impressed by the way she tried to help me understand each topic differently depending on what made sense to me. I've always looked to her in trying to emulate her teaching style into my own. Now I try to take the time to understand the students thought process and their learning style. I've worked with students from elementary to college across both mathematics and music. When I'm not working I enjoy...

I am currently finishing a degree in electrical engineering at the University of Utah. I have had the opportunity to help friends and family with material in math and science fields. 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 of many ages and abilities, and believe that patient and understanding instruction is paramount to a students success. I am very patient and caring, and I take a sincere interest in my students. I consider myself to be a well rounded person, and have many interests outside of my academic field. I enjoy literature and theatre, and I love to travel and see and experience new things. I have a particular fondness for the...

...at math and science because I excelled in writing and literature. One day, my AP Calculus teacher explained a complicated mathematical concept in terms that my literary side understood. She taught me that all subjects are understandable when they relate to information you already have. I have adopted this teaching strategy and focus on explaining concepts based on subjects that students have already mastered. I believe the best way to master a subject is to...

...to doing it again. Tutoring languages is a passion of mine because it is more than vocabulary and structure, it is about understanding how people think and why. The best way to learn in by experience and understanding the why behind the material. By using music, film, reading, writing, and especially speaking a student can master what they are learning. In my free time I love to rockclimb and experience other cultures through music, food,...

...have confidence, build up grit, and learn to enjoy math. I believe no one is inherently "bad at math". I think some students are not accustomed to thinking and speaking in the language of mathematics and/or they are missing some fundamental conceptual knowledge. With practice, guidance, and teaching, I believe anyone can do well in mathematics. As for myself, I am currently trying to teach myself computer programming, specifically Python, where thinking in the language...

...an advanced student or a beginner. My mission is to help my students reach their academic goals by expanding their capacity for learning and making the generalized process of education more personal. Learning is a skill that requires training, pacing, and a lot of practice. It stems from one's ability to process information by reading the assigned text, taking good notes, and carefully choosing exercises and problems to solidify one's understanding of concepts without taking...

...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 monitoring and prodding from teachers and administration. I seek to instill this love of learning in...
