Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Salt Lake City, UT

...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 chemistry, physics, biology, earth science, various math classes, and a variety of electives. I have...

...less motivated. This really got me interested in thinking about what made me want to learn, how learning works, and education in general. And since that change in perspective, learning, and it's counterpart, teaching, have really been one of my greatest passions. I just recently returned from a two-year stay in France where I lived a rich and cultural experience teaching and serving others. I'm now double majoring in French and Exercise Science with graduate...

...and yes, I even enjoy my homework. It doesn't seem like homework when it's something I love so much! That is my goal as a tutor: I want to help my students develop a deep love for learning and education. A love that will motivate them to work hard and still have fun while doing it. When I'm not at school, I love spending time in nature. I love escaping up to the mountains for...

I'm a hard-working individual who understands the pressures that students are facing, and how to make the learning process interesting and enjoyable.

...can have knowledge and understanding on a concept but the route that they took to learn that concept was completely different. I don't think there is just one way to learn or one way to understand, because of this I try multiple methods and paths to help students learn. I currently tutor chemistry and physics; my favorite one to tutor would be chemistry because it is my favorite science. I believe that each student should...

My name is Jacob Davis. I am 20 years old. I love running and spending time with my friends. I play the guitar and piano and am studying to be an electrical engineer.

...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 degree. I also have an intense interest in History, which I pursued in my general educational requirements of that same degree. I am a kinesthetic learner, and I...

...both a 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 rounded. Because of this, I don't have a favorite subject to teach so much as an overall love...

I'm a senior at Brigham Young University studying Genetics and Mathematics. I love molecular biology, slam poetry, my family, cheesecake, Japan, and life in general.

...working as a tutor because it allows me to see the progress of students of all ages gain confidence as they realize how they are capable of amazing things. My focuses in tutoring are mathematics (elementary, middle school, algebra, precalculus and calculus), statistics, and economics. I have completed recent coursework in these main disciplines and I regularly teach it so it stays fresh. I have also spent the last year and half in northern Italy...

...learning new subjects, hiking in the mountains, swimming, water polo, music, and traveling. My experience in teaching and mentoring has taken many different forms over the years. I have taught Advanced Wilderness Medicine techniques to physicians in the Netherlands, educated Kenyan villagers about proper self-care and hygiene, taught water polo as head coach of the local High School girls water polo team, and volunteered as a teacher's aid in local elementary schools. I enjoy working...

...nervous system, and learning other languages. I spend my time volunteering in the community, working in my neuroscience addiction lab, and spending time with my beautiful wife. My research gives me the opportunity to apply the knowledge that I learn from the classroom. I love working with and helping other people in the classroom and in work settings. I am excited to be of service in helping other students learn math, biology, physics, and portuguese.

...a camp counselor and thought that was great. Later, I was a substitute teacher, which was good. My favorite teaching experiences were when I was teaching assistant for an engineering class. It was highly satisfying to help the students learn about something I was passionate about, which I what I want to do here! Tutoring and helping with subjects I have experience in will make this a satisfying experience for everyone involved! If you want...

...physics (no pun intended), I am thoroughly qualified to tutor in mathematics which range from pre-algebra all the way up to college-level calculus and differential equations. Additionally, I have two minors: one in astrophysics and the other in music. I learned to read music at the age of four and have been playing the piano ever since then. My other musical exploits have included choral singing as well as choral conducting, composition, theory, organ, and...

...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 in a college setting. Beyond the world of teaching, I love volleyball and the outdoors. Hiking, camping, backpacking, being outside energizes my soul. Volleyball is my sport, and I love teaching the basics to people, but I enjoy practically all sports, despite my pitiable attempts at...

...figure things out without a lot of explanation. In most things, I'm not that guy! Like many students, understanding comes with repetition of principles and hard work. I have the perspective of a student trying to understand, not a teacher trying to preach. I love working with people from the ground up; we start at the comfort zone and work our way to improvement. I know I don't know everything, so I'm excited to learn...

...Transfer, Thermodynamics, and Physical Chemistry. These topics are all built on the foundation of the subjects I want to tutor. I've had the opportunity to apply them in many capacities in my jobs at an oil refinery, an iodine plant, and a copper mine. My teaching experience covers all ages. I started an in-home summer education program for family friends when I was 15. I taught people about my beliefs for two years as a...

I'm passionate about helping others to attain the best scores they can, and ensuring that they feel proud of the effort they put in and the results they receive. It's important to me to work with people individually to understand their specific needs and how I can best help them to succeed.

...physics. I honestly believe that students need a variety of ways to internalize information. For the chemistry course I taught to ESL students, I made podcasts for them with each of the objectives I needed for them to acquire and encouraged them to view these video podcasts to increase their understanding of the content. During classroom time, I would spend the majority of the time making connections to real world situations. These video podcasts were...
