I maintained high grades through out high school and took college level courses during high school. I am smart and very fun to work with. Don't dismiss me because of my inexperience. I look forward to any new challenge. I believe that it is important to have fun while learning. A good example would be my experience with science. I used to hate science, but my senior year of high school I had a gre

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.

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.

As a Biology student at Brigham Young University I was hired to be a tutor in the Life Sciences Learning Center. I tutored college students with a focus on introductory biology, molecular biology, and genetics. I developed a rapport with students and fostered a positive and welcoming learning environment. Last April I graduated from BYU with a BS in Biology, and regrettably had to leave my role as a tutor. I have six years of experience in teaching dance, including tap, jazz, ballet, and ballroom. Additionally, I have always been a strong student overall, and my previous coursework qualifies me to tutor chemistry, math, writing, Spanish, psychology, sociology, and several other subjects. As a tutor I strive to focus on the needs of each individual student. I find great fulfillment in getting to know each student on a personal basis, which allows me to develop trust and mutual respect.

As an undergraduate student it was important for me to pursue knowledge in an area dedicated to the advancement and/or improvement of people in their daily lives. During school I tutored local youth in a program dedicated to the preparation of advanced education. For the last several years in my current field, I have been responsible for continually educating other healthcare professionals on new and common healthcare practices and systems, aimed at making not only their experience, but the experience of people they service, both insightful and fulfilling. While I have not had extensive experience with educating children I have worked within an industry dedicated to the continual training in skills in a vast array of areas. In addition, the clientele that I have serviced over the past several years have suffered from various cognitive deficits ranging from organic to traumatic, which cre

I believe teaching is a noble profession. As a missionary I was a teacher for two years. There was a specified message about Jesus Christ and the incredible potential of mankind. Also, I taught English there weekly to natives (including a class for children only -- I made all curriculum up as we went). Now I work with university professors as a Student Consultant on Teaching (SCOT) for the Center for Teaching & Learning at BYU. Friends may describe me as enjoyably casual and patient. I know that learning can be difficult because of my time at a math and science academy in mid. school. Also, I feel knowledge/understanding is a source of peace and joy. I strive to improve the peace of conscience that comes when a person is fully prepared. As a Mormon/LDS missionary I attended the LDS Mission Training Center and then spent 2 years in the Tokyo area. I studied and spoke Japanese dai

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

As a former English major and editing minor at Brigham Young University I helped many students write and edit research and English papers. Along the way I also had the opportunity to edit an engineering Master's thesis. I have tutored in paper writing in various subjects as well as specifically tutoring in creative writing. I have worked with and on over thirty papers. I work very well one-on-one with students and am able to explain and teach what is necessary for better papers for the present and for the future. All of my students have received A grades on their papers. I am able to help students build their papers from the bottom up and go through completed papers and give assistance. I feel that I am able to teach and explain the elements that are required in a paper so that students may write better papers in the future. I greatly enjoy the one-on-one experience.

With a Master's degree in counseling, I have had various experience working with youth on a clinical level. Before going into counseling I was on track to become a high school math teacher. I have taken courses up through Calculus III and Number Theory. I feel very capable in this area. I also am an avid and good creative and technical writer. I have tutored students from elementary to college level in mathematics, English, writing, basic sciences, and other various humanities subjects. I've never met a "stupid" student. I see all people as capable, as long as they are willing. I find it easy to get a student interested in a subject when they have usually been bored in class. I easily create metaphors and practical examples for application of the subject at hand so the student can personalize their studies. Once a student sees how the subject "fits" in their life, their interest level of
