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

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.

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

I have been a classroom teacher for the last 18 years. I have taught in both Public Junior High and High Schools, as well as Private School. I love teaching science, and love to make the class exciting. It really gets students going when you use current events to teach and when kids debate issues, it is a great learning opportunity! I think all children are driven to learn, and if directed with a little help, everyone can learn how science changes peoples lives. I feel more like a coach and less like a lecturer. If you can make connections between things they know, and the things you are trying to teach them, they will have something to "hang" that new knowledge on!

I feel that repetition is one key that helps students grasp difficult concepts. I start by helping the student understand what the question is asking. Then I will do a problem step by step, showing the student what I am doing. Next, I will have the student do the same problem, but recreate the steps that I had shown them, guiding them along the way. After this type of practice, we will move on to similar problems, using the same steps that we previously used. I have found that this system helps me learn the information and retain it. I will be patient because I understand that these concepts do not come easily. My teaching style can be easily adapted to meet the student’s needs. As I prepared for Medical School, I wanted to achieve the most possible out of my undergraduate experience at Brigham Young University. I chose Biology as my major, knowing that it would challenge me. I

While pursuing my own studies in college, I realized that I not only love learning but that I love to increase learning in others as well. Because of this, I spent many hours throughout college volunteering to tutor calculus and chemistry students. During my last two years of college, I worked as a chemistry teaching assistant, a position that allowed me to teach chemistry to groups of 25 college students. As evidence of my effectiveness and clarity in teaching, I won four undergraduate teaching awards during this period. Currently, I work as a private tutor for high school students and tutor them in all levels of math, science, psychology, English, and ACT test preparation. I love learning and feel that all types of learning and knowledge increase our ability to more fully appreciate the beauties of life. When tutoring, I do what I can to instill this love of learning in those arou

I enjoy teaching and I have taught all grades and various subjects during my time as a substitute teacher. I think it is important for students to ask questions. This is important for them to be able to learn effectively. I think science is important for students to be able to learn how to think analytically and to develop a curiosity of the world around them. I have a degree in Microbiology and a minor in Chemistry. I enjoy teaching and I have worked as a substitute teacher for two years. I am also fluent in portuguese and I have taught english to non-native people. I have several years of laboratory experience which I believe enables me to teach children real world examples of how science works. I believe this also can prepare them to think analytically.

My teaching style is actually very fluid and relates specifically to the people that I am currently teaching. Every person learns differently, as such, a wide range of teaching styles is required to teach a wide range of people. As a tutor, I was able to develop my teaching skills in a wide range of areas (including: analogies, step/progression, fundamental-based teaching and increasingly narrowed focus) that have helped me teach many different people with many different backgrounds not only math, but also physics and biology as well. While a Biological Sciences major at Brigham Young University Idaho I took several different math courses that were above and beyond those required for my degree. I excelled at each of the classes that I took, and was actually recruited by my calculus teacher to become a statistics and calculus tutor at the university math lab. I worked for 4 consecutive se

I am just getting ready to graduate from the University of Utah with a degree in Mathematics and an minor in Physics. I have extensive knowledge of Mathematics and good knowledge of science in general, as I have taken many chemistry, biology and physics classes while at the University. I have fair grammatical skills, as I have had the opportunity to work in an undergraduate research program, which required me to write research papers. I also have experience tutoring high school and junior high school students. I worked as a tutor in the Avid program for Granite School District last year. I have also tutored students privately in Mathematics. I am a believer in the socratic method. As an Avid tutor we were taught to employ this method to help students understand concepts. I think that it is better to ask questions, and guide students' thinking rather than just giving them the answer, or t

In college I had the opportunity to work as a peer tutor and also as a tutor for high school students through the Upward Bound program. I did this via face to face as well as through phone tutoring. Upon graduating I was lucky enough to get a full time job with the Upward Bound program and continued to tutor as well as train tutors. Seven years ago I had the opportunity to enter the teaching arena and have enjoyed a wide array of subjects. A teacher should treat their students as consumers. As consumers those students need to have their needs and expectations met. Every student learns differently and expects the instructor to be the expert in the subject matter. Being that expert the instructor should have and show a passion for the subject that makes the students want to know more. Each student is a valuable member of the class and as such has valuable experience and opinions that can e

At the University of California, Irvine I completed my degree in Economics with a minor in Spanish. Additionally I took the necessary courses for medical school. I have completed Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, and several Biology courses. I also took the Medical College Admissions Test. I have tutored students in their homes in areas of mathematics and Biology. My teaching style begins with understanding the level of each student's knowledge and learning approach. During my college years I participated in many tutorial sessions realizing that it could provide instructional help as well as social interaction with other motivated students. I believe that tutoring helps a student become more involved in his/her studies, creating a greater interest and a more enduring impact. I can teach very detailed, down to the fundamentals, or using simple examples. The best part about te

I graduated from a small, hands-on high school that focused on experiential learning. This coupled with my time at a small liberal arts college dedicated to teaching more than research, has shown me the value of a one on one relationship with a teacher. I believe all students learn in different ways. It is the task of a good teacher to find the strengths of each student and to teach them to overcome their weaknesses. Often it is not mastering content that presents a problem for students, rather it is that they have never been taught how to learn. I strive to help my students to discover their unique style of learning so they can apply it every subject they study. I have earned my BS in Biology from Westminster College. I am currently applying to veterinary schools to become an equine veterinarian. This path has led me to master the basic sciences, including biology, chemistry and physics

First and foremost, I love working with and teaching children. For that reason, my future plans are to be a pediatrician. They are so wonderful and nothing is more exciting than watching a child grasp a brand new concept. I believe that every child, if given the one-on-one attention they deserve, can not only learn but excel in any given subject. I give a 100% in all that I do, and I promise you that your child will receive nothing less. They will be better prepared for their subjects, and as a direct result, they will do better at school. I grew up reading the nutritional panel on everything. I was absolutely fascinated how the body used the food that we eat to derive the energy and perform the tasks necessary for life. This interest in the human body led me to pursue a degree in nutrition. I recently graduated Brigham Young University the honored graduate of my college with a

I have had opportunities to teach in many different settings -ranging from college labs and middle school classrooms to special education and health care settings. Through these experiences it became clear to me that not all people learn in the same way. This said, I believe that there are some general approaches to which all respond well. These include: patience, understanding, organization, and clarity. Nothing is more fulfilling to me than taking a concept that is difficult and foreign and presenting it in a way that people can understand. I will do my best in providing a personalized, professional learning environment for each student with which I work. I am currently a graduate student in the University of Utah's Doctor of Pharmacy program. I've completed 4 1/2 years of college education with a total of 146 credit hours.

I have taught Environmental Science, Physics, Chemistry, Physical Science, Algebra and Geometry for three years at the Passaic County Community College's college and Upward Bound Programs in New Jersey. I have also tutored students of the same program during the three year period. I am therefore confident that I would be able to teach the above mentioned courses without any difficulty. I begin each lesson with the understanding that different students have different approaches to understanding the same concept. I am therefore always prepared to use different approaches to help students who need extra help. M
