...tutor accordingly. I am currently a junior at Brigham Young University. I am an Applied & Computational Mathematics major with a concentration in Electrical and Computer Engineering: Circuits. I have earned the high in many of my math and physics courses. In addition, I placed third in my university's undergraduate math competition while only a freshman. When I am not doing math or physics, I enjoy farming, inventing, origami, blogging, basketry, hiking, and building bagpipes.

...I love understanding how 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...

...major but am leaning toward a degree in finance or information systems. I am fluent in Spanish thanks to a two-year mission for my church. Because of this I am now part of a Hispanic volunteer group helping children learn to read more fluently. I played rugby and football, and I love doing things outdoors, whether it be hiking, going to the lake, skiing, or backpacking. I have also traveled to many parts of the...

...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 taking the exams myself. The trick is to learn the test and know how to beat it with the right tools, and I am eager to pass along what I have learned from years of studying for and taking standardized tests. There...

...the right answer. I love trying to pass on my enthusiasm for math and science to my students, and I am always looking for ways to show how cool and fun mastering these subjects can be. Although I am most passionate about physics, I also tutor math and Spanish. When I'm not studying or teaching I enjoy swimming, reading (especially Michael Crichton and Orson Scott Card), and exchanging movie quotes with my roommates.... My teaching philosophy...

...and legal world before deciding to pursue teaching. I am currently a substitute teacher and have experience with all age groups with an emphasis in elementary education. While I am confident tutoring any subject, my focus is in language, literature, and history. I am also experienced in academic, creative, professional, and legal writing. I started teaching to be part of a movement that works to solve educational inequality and am passionate about giving our students...

...Those kind of experiences led to my decision to make teaching an integral part 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...

...been a high school teacher of multiple science subjects (biology, chemistry, physical science, etc.) In school, I worked as an English writing tutor for all varieties of subjects, from accounting essays to ESOL student practice. In science, I am most experienced at tutoring genetics and psychology, but my favorite subject by far is neuroscience. In English, I am most experienced at reading comprehension and essay writing. I also have considerable experience tutoring general study skills...

...I especially enjoy tutoring Economics because I enjoy the subject and a lot of times students just need to think about things a new way to understand it easily. My teaching philosophy is that the biggest key to learning is just getting in the right mindset. Being willing and excited to learn and then understanding what the question is really looking for are the keys to success in almost every subject. Other interests I have...

...science and mathematics. I have a bachelor's degree in geological science (geophysics) from University of Colorado Boulder with a minor in mathematics. Part of my success in college came from the preparation I had from taking AP Calculus and Physics courses in high school. I'm a huge fan of visual aids and examining real-life examples and applications when teaching. I worked as a learning assistant in an astronomy lab course and as a tutor for...

...trumpet, I have perfect pitch, and am a whiz at music theory. I'm excited to get together. I spent two years in Central America and by the end people thought I was a native on the phone (until they saw me in person!) I have college level Spanish qualifications. I did a semester of cultural, language, and university study abroad in Germany. After returning home, I taught as an adjunct German I Professor at DSU....

...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.

...I have had many people like that that have tried to help me to reach my potential and so I would also 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...

...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, fishing, and backpacking. I'm also a huge nerd when it...

...school, I had to change in mindset of what it even means to BE a student. Standardized tests, subjects that I just didn't get, and all these other educational obligations had me perplexed. I was lucky enough to acquire a great tutor of my own who helped navigate through my studies. Test-taking strategies and deeper comprehension of certain topics was exactly what I needed to get through my classes and tests. Along with a great...

I plan to get my masters in architecture at the University of Utah within the next couple of years and my dream would be to design custom homes for...

...and weaknesses should not define what we are skilled at but should help us develop skills across subject matters. For most of my academic career, I believed that I was bad 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...

Every student has their own unique talents. Every student has the ability to master information. Every student can succeed in different ways and on different days.... There is value in all learning though we may not recognize it while we are going through it. But one piece of information, one skill we mastered, will one day be critical in achieving a goal we really want. Hard work is the price we pay for getting to that...
