Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors in Salt Lake City, UT

...did private math tutoring for high school students. In recent years, I have had the opportunity to work as a paraprofessional working one on one with a number of special education students, and tutoring third graders with low literacy scores to improve reading skills. Since November 2011, I have been working as the science teacher at a private boarding school for girls. A lot of my work there has involved working individually with students in...

...a bachelor's degree in Chemistry. As a student, I have found that I respect teachers more when they can understand the questions posed by my fellow students. I think that it is important to find out what a student knows before trying to teach a new concept. That way any misconceptions can be cleared up at the beginning, instead of fighting against them for weeks or even longer. I have taken classes in Chemistry, Physics,...

...experience for me. When I'm not teaching, I love spending time with my family. I enjoy reading, singing, and taking very amateur photos of the glorious mountains surrounding me. I also enjoy writing and directing plays for my church. Why do I love online tutoring? Online tutoring gives students and their parents much more flexibility in scheduling tutoring sessions. Online tutoring also offers tutoring help at a much more affordable rate as well. I have...

...credits of undergraduate math and statistics. In 2012 I graduated with a Master's of Public Affairs and Applied Statistics from the University of Texas at Austin. My Spanish upbringing has opened some doors to help Spanish learners. During my undergraduate years, I taught Spanish to pay for school. I would tutor students who wanted a down to earth explanation of a Spanish grammatical concept or who simply wanted to practice conversation. I later became an...

...over two years now, both privately and through colleges. I worked in the Math Lab in Salt Lake Community College and I also worked at the University of Utah as a Supplemental Instruction Leader for Math 1050. I just graduated from the University of Utah with my bachelor's in math and a minor in psychology. I tutor all levels and ages, though I have the most experience with college students. I hope to hear from...

...mathematics and physics and I enjoy imparting that enthusiasm with others. In my five plus years at Brigham Young University, I had the opportunity to tutor many in advanced mathematics. I tutored for courses in astronomy, multivariable calculus, and partial differential equations. I think that learning is the greatest experience that one can have in this life and is indeed the essence of life. My enthusiasm and my skill makes me a great tutor.... Imparting knowledge depends on two things; (1) a love for learning and gaining understanding, and (2) a love for sharing it.

...that will allow me to become more well-rounded, work with people from all populations, find out what I enjoy, and apply the knowledge I have learned in school.

Also, through out my undergrad I have gained experience...

...and I am currently working towards a Bioengineering degree at the University of Utah. I've always loved math and I'm great at helping students make sense of new or difficult concepts. As a tutor, I am careful to make sure that students are able to do problems on their own, without relying too heavily on memorization. Outside of school and work, I enjoy getting up in the mountains whenever I can. I especially like hiking,...

...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 a full-tuition...

I'm very excited about the opportunity to assist you. I truly enjoy helping others overcome obstacle and reach their goals!... I believe that all students who have a desire to learn can learn. When we change the way we think about things and approach them from a positive view, we open ourselves up for success.

...received a presidential (full-time) scholarship for my scores on the ACT. I will do everything in my power to help you perform as well as you can on the ACT test. I have a great fondness for mathematics and science, and love teaching both to students. When 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...

...a tutor for my university. As a tutor I was required to know how to do all problems in our university math classes from basic Algebra to upper level Calculus. I believe what makes me a qualified tutor is not only my knowledge of math, but my ability to work with people. I enjoy socializing and believe that as a tutor it is vital to make students feel confident in their abilities. I think it...

I have a PhD in Biomedical Engineering. I am starting a part-time lecturer position at Paul Quinn College in the fall for General Biology I lab and lecture. I love to learn and teach. I read books, play board games, and do puzzles in my free time. ... I would find out what interests the student and try to find a way to incorporate that into the lessons, so that the student wants to learn.... Try to break down that skill or concept into skills or concepts that the student already knows.

...I have obtained an M.S. at Colorado State University with the focus of my studies and research being Cognitive Psychology. I have taught small labs and lecture courses at CSU for the past four years as a grad student, where the main skill objectives for the classes were: writing APA style, psychology concepts, designing and conducting research, and analyzing research using statistics. I have also had opportunities to teach high school students during a few...

...for a better quality of life. One of the reasons I chose to become a tutor is that it provides others something of great worth. I enjoy it and feel fulfilled rather than simply being motivated by the money. It is a great opportunity to give to the community. Each student has a great potential for learning and knowledge. Everyone, with hard work, can tap in to deep potential and do great things. I seek...

...love to help others to do the same. I'm a neuroscience major at BYU and I love music in every aspect (dancing, singing, listening, playing instruments, composing, etc.) I have worked with students sporadically since 2011. I tutor especially in mathematics, the sciences, and spanish. I believe that everyone learns differently and I strive to figure out how people learn to help them in the best way possible. I look forward to working with you!

Right now I am currently studying at Brigham Young University with...

...a tutor professionally, but I will be able to draw on my experience from helping my peers through school to tutor others in the best way possible. I graduated from the University of Utah's Mechanical Engineering program with a 3.9 GPA, so I have a good grasp of all of the subjects that were covered. Because I usually understood the material pretty quickly, I was often able to help my peers come to an understanding...

...originally from Park City, Utah and love to ski, read, and learn! Learning new information takes a lot of patience and handwork and I'm very willing to patiently walk through any and all math problems till a solution is found. I would not be studying what I am today, without a lot of hard-work and dedication. I'm a very friendly student and know exactly what you're going through in terms of studying, persistence is key!

...subjects in the classroom, and it can quickly feel like it is too late to catch up. My goal is to work together to pick up the pieces that were lost or are close, but not quite there: learning the way you want to learn and the way you learn best rather than having topics taught at you. For standardized testing: I have taken the special classes and labored through the workbooks to prepare for...
