Award-Winning IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches Tutors for Students in Salt Lake City, UT

...want to know? C) How do I get from A to B? I did PhD research in computational chemistry and dream of becoming a middle school math teacher if I win the lottery. PS - My online sessions will frequently be monitored by my chihuahua, Piper. She's quiet, but expect a pop-by :)... Students learn best by doing problems and talking through their process. I like to have a student talk me through what they understand...

...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 up too much time. Though learning is a universal skill, it manifests differently from person...

...lives. I try to convey the importance of a rigorous study and examination of textbooks and outside readings to improve the classroom experience and therefore, a student's overall education. The modern approach to education, with a blend of technology-based learning and in-class didactic learning lends itself well to the particular was in which I would...

I am passionate about making math fun and easy for all students.

I am in my senior year as a double math and physics major at Brigham Young University. I previously worked as a math tutor at Lone Peak High School and Mathnasium, where I discovered my passion for helping students work toward that "aha!"...

...aren't smart enough. Believe me, those things aren't true! Everyone can excel at math, you just need to have it explained to you in a way that makes sense to you. That's what I enjoy- finding ways to explain math so my students get it. I'll keep trying different ways until I find one that...

...can remember. However, I recognize that these subjects can be rather stressful for others, which is why I want to help in any way I can as a tutor. On campus I tutor for the math department, helping first and second year students in their pre-calc through multivariable calculus classes. I always try to make...

...I travel around Europe with my family. I am in love with the beauty of mathematics, and being able to help other people understand it! Being able to use programming to solve math problems is really cool, and being able to use math to solve programming problems is even better. But the absolute best part...

...as a problem solving facilitator in the physics department and as Makerspance manager, where I help students with projects ranging from sewing to electronics. I most enjoy tutoring physics, closely followed by math. In both of these subjects, I believe problem solving, both guided and independent is an ideal way to learn and solidify skills....

...for lots of different physics classes. This got me excited about helping others learn physics and math, and helping them realize their full potential in traditionally difficult subjects. In addition to some research in computational physics, I've also been a TA for various programming classes and enjoy helping students hone their coding skills.

...any direct tutoring/teaching experience (yet!), but I have spent years helping peers and friends learn more about STEM topics. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to help anyone that needs me. I will help you develop your critical thinking and problem-solving skills by working through problems together, asking lots of questions, and keeping...

I am a lover of all things STEM. I believe in helping students help themselves. I have a lot of experience working with students as young as 4th grade all the way up to high school and college. STEM is more than just knowledge, it is practical skills that we all use everyday.

...Weber State University in Computer Science and Math. Growing up I was always the family member to go to for math questions, now I would like to show other students that math isn't so scary as long as you put the time and effort into understanding the concepts. When I am not tutoring, I love...

...studying! Let me help you discover what learning/teaching style is best for you. I bet we can squeeze at least a little fun from cracking down on ACT studying or that boring science class. It's all about approaching school with a little optimism... and sarcasm... that helps too. This last fall I graduated from the...

...it is being explained with examples or illustrated with something visual. To elicit deeper thinking, I would ask students open-ended questions. The opening question of my tutoring, for example, is typically used to bring students mind to the learning context. It is often related to such topics as popular news, familiar natural phenomena, daily activities,...

...Hillsdale College, and a master's degree in statistics from North Carolina State University. I teach just about every mathematical topic offered at Varsity Tutors. My favorite subjects to teach are algebra, trigonometry, statistics, and calculus. I like trying to convince students that algebra is very useful and interesting. I also love teaching trigonometry because of...

...their eyes is so apparent. My first student with difficulties was a five year old that seemed couldn't quite grasp how to write his name. After working with him for several days, I learned that his biggest problem was that someone had been telling him that he was writing several letters backwards, so therefore it...

...a Naval Officer with the unique expertise learned in one-on-one communication with peers and sailors as well as my five children, I can help you or your child succeed. A Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, and a Math Minor help qualify me for tutoring in many subjects. My individualized tutoring methods also raised my step-son's Physics...

I love teaching and helping others. I've tutored since High School and my classmates, friends and students always tell me about how much I've made an impact in their lives. I believe everyone can improve and learn--that means YOU too! Ready?

I believe in helping the individual achieve their own potential, their own talent, their own success. As a tutor I aim to encourage the good habits that already are there to enhance any student's capability, as I am certain that everyone has gifts waiting to be uncovered.
