Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Alpine, UT

Hello, my name is Lauren and I absolutely love tutoring! I have tutored since I was in high school (about 5 years of experience total)and more recently have worked as a Peer Tutor at Westminster College, as well as teaching private voice and piano lessons. As a biology major, I'm most experienced in science and math related areas, particularly general biology, general chemistry, statistics, algebra, and geometry. I am also very qualified to tutor ACT and SAT test prep, as I scored extremely high in all areas of the two tests, earning a 34 on the ACT and a 2190 on the SAT. I'm also qualified to tutor in several humanities areas, especially writing-a skill strongly emphasized by Westminster's intensive and selective Honors Program. I have also taken AP tests in English Literature (5), Human Geography (5), European History (4), and American History (4) and IB tests in English (6) a

Tutored General Chemistry for three years My style is to build confidence in the student by teaching positive thought processes, study skills, learning techniques, and a strong work ethic. I assist students to believe in themselves and provide them with tools that give them a perspective.....that they can succeed with well directed effort. I recognize certain learning styles and work with the particular students learning style, e.g. such as a visual learner by providing visual aids. I have worked at Utah Valley University Academic Tutoring Lab, tutoring Science and developmental math from June 2009 to August 2014. I have private tutored Latino students, disabled students, and all other students that "dropped in" to the Science Tutoring Lab at UVU. I have taught and tutored geology, meteorology, oceanography, and been a Teachers Assistant for chemistry and meteorology. I have been a pri

I have a Masters degree in Chemistry from Portland State University. I have cumulative 10+ years of work experience in diverse academic and research positions in universities and pharmaceutical companies in India and United States. I find breaking down complex scientific ideas into bite-sized chunks to be extremely rewarding, especially when I see the smiles on the faces of my students when they make attain a new level of understanding. From my experience as a high-scoring chemistry student at University, as well as being a professor I know how to train students to not only understand the questions fully but to give the appropriate answers in tests and other assessments. Chemistry is a subject that many students find difficult, and I relish the opportunity to make it easier! I love to teach classes in chemistry . When I clarify a difficult concept, it is always rewarding to see a twinkle

Served a 2-year french-speaking mission and am studying it at BYU. Have taken advances grammar classes and literature classes. I received the best grade in my grammar class. It is true that I took a couple years of high-school french but I mainly taught it to myself during my mission. I did serve with native companions so I spoke primarily French for months at a time. Also have done some French translating work.

Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style. Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.

During my education experience at Northern Arizona University, I learned early on that I have a passion for education and for teaching. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree and graduated Summa Cum Laude at the top of my class. Through observing and student teaching experiences I learned techniques for teaching students science, English, math, reading, art and music. I also gained valuable grammatical skills through writing various research papers and essays during my studies. I absolutely 100% believe that ALL children can learn! I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to provide a healthy learning environment, one in which the student feels safe, secure, accepted and valued. I believe in self-fulfilling prophecies. If a child is encouraged to learn and knows that they can - they will. I feel very privileged to have had an opportunity to have created these types of sit

Teaching is a very fulfilling experience, a special connection is made between teacher and student especially when understanding on the students part is reached. That is what makes it fulfilling, seeing the progress and understanding of the student develop. I believe everyone can learn, we all think differently and are unique but if presented in the right light all can comprehend any subject. I enjoy the challenge of helping students understand the material in a different light, figuring out which method of thinking works best for that individual student. My goal is to help them succeed. I took two years out of my college career at BYU to serve a full time church mission in Ecuador. In Ecuador I learned to speak Spanish fluently and while there taught multiple hours everyday to educate others about the gospel. Although this may not be directly related with school the teaching exper

Academics and higher education are very much a driving force in my life. I enjoy learning new skills and learning about new subjects, also sharing that knowledge with others. I earned my first Bachelor's degree in Linguistics in 2006, and went on to teach English as a Second Language in Gwacheon, Korea. I am currently completing my second Bachelor's degree in Physics at the University of Utah. I have experience in tutoring other students in college level courses, such as science and English essay writing, as well as teaching younger children. I have experience in college level chemistry, physics and math (from algebra to calculus to ODE's). I believe that the basis of learning is understanding the principles of the subject. If a student has a thorough knowledge of the basics, then he does not need to rely on root memorization or luck to pass classes. I believe teaching and learnin

My teaching style is relaxed and friendly. If the student doesn't like working with me, then the effort is for naught. Once I build a rapport with the student, I try to impress on them the crucial nature of the subject, without being overbearing. Finally, we delve into the material, celebrating success and ferreting out the problems that may confound us. After completing my MS in geophysics I went to work in the oil business. I found this to be morally troubling and turned to teaching as a way to give back to the community. To my delight I have found that I love to teach, I connect well with kids and they seem to enjoy my teaching style. I have been teaching for eight years and I look forward to many more.

I have degrees in a wide variety of scientific fields including a BS in zoology, a BA in chemistry, an MS in ethnobotany, and a PhD in physiology and developmental biology. I have also studied pharmacology and horticulture. I have years of experience as a teaching assistant for both introductory and advanced college biology courses. I also taught AP biology at a private school. I have performed a wide variety of research so I have a good understanding of experimental techniques and data analysis as well. I love to teach basic biological principles to people who previously thought they were not interested in science and watching them become enthusiastic. I am well qualified to help you understand, appreciate and enjoy the sciences. I like to use an interactive teaching style in which there is lots of discussion between teacher and student. This provides immediate feedback on the student

As a teacher, I have a strong believe that children have different forms of learning patterns. Some learn by writing , some by drawing and some memorizing. I feel that every child should be given an opportunity to learn and be treated equally. Children have the ability to learn and as teachers we are there to help them progress in live to be better people and one who can support themselves out in the society I love teaching and biology is my best subject. I have earned BS in Biology education which also has helped me to gain understanding of chemistry and math.I graduated in 2008 and since then I had only 4 months of teaching experience in a school. But I have done lot of tutoring for friends and family members and I love it.
