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

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 semester there teaching everything up to, and including, Calculus 2 and statistics 2. 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 w

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 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.

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

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 enrich the class. The instructor should provide ample opportunity for student questions and discussion. The educator’s role goes beyond delivering the curriculum. The instructor should make the learning relevant to real life experiences. The instructor should provide differentiated instruction, timely feedback, and should aid in the students’ development academically and professionally. Students should be aspired to be quality teachers a

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 teaching is watching as the students "get it." 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 thei

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

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. The largest majority of my course work has been in chemistry, including: general chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. In addition I have had several health science courses and math courses including: human biology, human anatomy, human pysiology, microbiology, college algebra, Calculus 1, calculus 2, and a year of physics. While attending school I have been employed as a tutor for human biology, human physiology and microbiology and worked for The Sanpete County School District tutoring middle school aged students in math and science. I have had opportunities to teach in many different settings -ranging from college labs and middle school classrooms to special education and health care

I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Geology with Physics and Chemistry backing. I recently graduated from a doctoral degree program in Environmental Management with focus on hydro-chemical modeling of water resources using multivariate statistical methods and mass balance methods. 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

My teaching style might be a bit unorthodox but it is something I have acquired from past teachers and tutors. I have not helped or tutored in a while but I believe I have an easy and simple approach to it. When it comes to physics and chemistry, the math can be learned over night, the concepts are most critical. You can't read a problem and interpret the question word for word. You have to find a way to relate it to real life and what you see everyday. A spinning disk becomes a truck tire, a sound device becomes a sub woofer. Things that you can relate to. I have yet to complete my senior year of studies at the University but I will be done by Spring 2011. I am working towards my first Bachelors Degree, BS in Physics and will continue with school after until I get my MS in Chemical Engineering. Physics and Chemistry have always come easy to me and I know that because of this I can help

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 experience is. I have graduated with a bachelor in science and am very well educated in physics, biology, and chemistry. My experience in Ecuador has allowed me to become comfortable with teaching others and helping them grasp the subject material. 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

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. 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

My rigorous education has given me substantial insight into the "total package" needed to learn and succeed at a high level. The ability to learn material is critical, and I excel at teaching difficult concepts and skills to a range of different learning "types". However, the ability to organize, prioritize, and focus is equally critical to academic success, and my experience with a wide range of subjects from art and literature to science, social sciences, and business as well as a range of different personalities allows me to teach virtually any subject with a sympathetic understanding of how each individual's personality learns best. Some people learn well step-by-step, others learn better through self-experimentation. My familiarity with a range of learning styles allows me to find the best way to teach each individual. I was in the top 10% of my class at an elite college prepara

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 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 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
