Award-Winning ESL/ELL Tutors serving Salt Lake City, UT

I'm here because I want to better both the lives of my students and my own through education. The most important thing is that a tutor be patient, understanding, and clear with his student, and I strive to be all of these things with every student that I meet.

...tutor and a teaching assistant while I work on my bachelor's degree in Applied Statistics and is what lead me to find Varsity Tutors. Although my major is very math heavy, I myself have a great love for literature and art so much so that I'm minoring in Interdisciplinary Humanities in order to stay well...

...provide the best possible learning environment for students. I believe that students work best when they are excited about the subject, and much of my teaching style involves transmitting energy on a certain subject to help the student become self-reliant problem-solvers. Beyond teaching, I love reading fantasy books, salsa dancing, practicing the piano, or playing...

...pace. That's why I love being a tutor! I love working with people one-on-one to help them really learn, understand, and become more comfortable what they are studying.

...After a year of college on academic scholarship I served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints in Japan for approximately 18 months.

...elementary to college, literature (my minor is in literature), reading, public speaking, college composition, and ESL/ELL. When I'm not behind my computer, I love being outside. I hike, ski, camp, or just sit under a tree. Nature is where I unwind. I look forward to working with you and/or your student!

...their study habits and how they participate in the classroom. Once the student learns how they learn best, they become much more confident going forward in school and feel a significant reduction in anxiety during tests (a challenge many students face). When I'm not focused on my own school work or helping others excel in...

...strengths with tutoring are helping writing: Research papers, essays, argumentative writing, etc. I also help students students with reading comprehension, AP Literature, and ACT test preparation. I have an ESL certification and enjoy teaching English as well. All things language arts! I love to read, nerd out on geography, travel, and learn about the world.

...very well, because I studied by myself, but speaking and listening skills did not come for me until I actually immersed myself into Japan. And it was difficult at first. The only way to overcome that difficulty is just to dive right in, and not be afraid to make mistakes. I now have great proficiency...

...lift, and inspire other people! I am currently working on obtaining an English Teaching degree to better be able to accomplish that mission. I want to get a job as a high school English teacher after graduating from BYU. I have had several long-term opportunities to tutor, both unpaid and professionally and I recently received...

I enjoy playing and watching sports, camping, and...

Learning is the hard part, but applying what you learn... Now that's the fun part.
