College Literature Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Draper, UT

I am a culinary school graduate and a full-time chef. As part of my chef-ly duties, I regularly find myself teaching cooking techniques and helping people become more comfortable in the kitchen. When it comes to writing, that I do more for my own amusement, but I have always considered myself more of a writer than anything else. I have experience and enjoy training youth in resume writing and goal setting. I am an extremely patient person. My teaching style stems from that. I encourage those I tutor to set goals for what they want to learn or accomplish and then assist them in working towards those goals.

I love working with people of all ages. Everyone learns differently and I am keenly aware of it. I never quit on any student who is desirous to improve. I'm fun and clever, yet grounded when it comes to educating. I graduated from Brigham Young University in 2008 and began teaching English right away. I teach English 11 and 12 as well as Mythology and Newspaper. I also worked at Sylvan Learning Center, which has given me good experience with working one-on-one with struggling learners.

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

Teaching is a unique experience that I enjoy thoroughly. I excel at one on one and small group teaching/tutoring, but am equally comfortable in front of 20 or 30 students as well. My patience and love of children is off the charts. I bring a lot of life experience and world travel to the table, so I can easily create an important bond with most students. My strength is inspiring students to learn not only with me but in all of life and to pursue their best in life. My life experience has been so rich, multi-cultural, international that I can easily come up with inspirational materials that will "light the fire within" any student. During my graduate year at San Diego State University in the School of Education I worked at one junior high school teaching U.S.History and one high school teaching an English class. The next year I subbed for the public schools in Steamboat Springs, Col

I was lucky enough to spend four years doing what I love: reading and writing. I graduated from BYU-Idaho with a BA in English, with an emphasis in literary studies, and a minor in Humanities. I spent 2 years tutoring students in the BYU-Idaho reading center. My experience ranged from beginning readers to college level speed reading techniques. I spent a large amount of time working with ESL students. These experiences not only gave me a better understanding of the concepts of grammar and comprehension, but a greater appreciation of the English language itself. I discovered my teaching techniques while working as a tutor and have perfected them for the past seven years as a mother of four young children. My main goal when tutoring or teaching is to guide the student to the answer through their own knowledge. I have found that by sharing the necessary tools for learning has been so much

I love seeing people learn. I love the look in a student's eye when they think about something in a way they've never thought about it before. I love to facilitate that type of learning because it brings me great satisfaction. I especially love to work with children because they are so willing to learn and they absorb information so quickly. I am grateful for amazing teachers and dedicated parents who helped me with my education when I was young, and I want to pass that on to other children. Ever since I was a young girl, I have loved learning. This passion for learning new things has given me the motivation to earn my Bachelor's degree in Humanities (emphasis: Music) as well as my Master's degree in Comparative studies. Through the writing and publication of my thesis, I have gained valuable experience editing, researching, and proofreading as well as learning analytical and critical th

I believe that it is important, when teaching children, to let them know that you believe in them and are going to readily available to help them in any way you can. I am very patient and understanding as I see children struggle but also push them to succeed. It is important to me to have a positive and loving relationship with my students so that they know I am someone they can trust and count on as they try to learn and excel. I believe that each student has a unique potential and I think it is important to promote their strengths and also to work on their weaknesses so that they can be successful in the things that they enjoy. I believe very strongly in a well rounded education but I also think that it is important to maximize strengths. As I've studied International Studies, I have been able to recognize the differences existing from one human to the next. I have learned to appreciat

My personal journey with education and teaching has been quite fulfilling as I have had many opportunities to enhance my skills in a variety of situations. Throughout my life, I have had gained valuable teaching experience while serving as a teacher and educational trainer in France, New Zealand, the United States, and China. During such international and culturally diverse teaching opportunities, I carefully observed the educational systems of each country and learned many effective teaching methods that will increase my effectiveness as a private tutor. Over the past year, I have had the opportunity of teaching at the university level as a French adjunct professor. This unique experience has allowed me to experiment with many different teaching methods that promote both a strong work ethic and an enjoyable way of learning. The college students in each of my classes have come f

I love working with all ages but I believe K-12 fits me best. I try to encourage students to do and be their very best by telling them "they can do it" & being optimistic. I'm a very compassionate person and believe all students have great potential and it shows with how I converse with all students. Personally, I find helping others help themselves is very rewarding and uplifting. I love to see student's eyes light up when they solve a problem or understand a concept... This is why I continue to be available to tutor students. I earned a bachelor of science degree in International Business & Finance from Arizona State University. Some of my coursework completed in school includes:finance, accounting, international business, operations management, business writing, philosophy, political science, & english. During the last 18 months of undergrad I tutored high school students in algebra I

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 situations for the students I have come in contact with. 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
