Nathan N. - Sandy, UT 84070 (11.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $27.00/hr.
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.

Danielle M. - Tooele, UT 84074 (27.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $400.00/hr.
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.

Alison C - Salt Lake City, UT 84101 (0.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I enjoy working with parents and children in facilitating their child's success. I believe in more of a kinesthetic approach and feel that children learn best 'hands-on.' I also feel that children and educators are crucial in the development of families and society. I am passionate about bettering the lives of children everywhere. I would love to assist a child on a one-on-one basis, being a tutor/mentor. Ever since I was introduced to American Sign Language (ASL), I have been deeply fascinated in the language and its speakers. A year after my initial experience with ASL, I decided to create my own Bachelor's Degree at the University of Utah. I was able to design curriculum pertaining to my desired field of interest. The classes I took were mostly education related. I had several classes in education psychology, multi-cultural education, diversity and culture. My major emphasis

Megan A - Salt Lake City, UT 84111 (0.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
During my four years at Case Western Reserve University, I became aware of the needs of the city schools in the area and worked to help improve the situations in the schools. I worked with AmericaREADS, OhioREADS and other similar programs to help tutor children who were not able to get the individual attention they needed in the classroom. Because of my background in engineering, I am excellent in math and science but I also enjoy helping in reading, writing, and assisting the children in enhancing their studying skills. I enjoy working with children of most ages although I worked mainly with K, first, fourth and high school levels during my four years of experience. I believe everyone has the ability to reach their greatest potential with appropriate help and that sometimes extra assistance can be the difference between success and failure. I use rewards to help children feel bette

Andrew B - Salt Lake City, UT 84103 (1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Teaching is a personal act. Though I have enjoyed being in the classroom and seeing students develop as a community of learners, I have seen the most progress by addressing students' individual needs in a one-on-one situation. I see literature as one of most effective ways that people come to understand one another, the act of reading being a fundamentally unselfish and inquisitive act, an attempt to make sense of and relate to another person’s perspective. Writing is reading’s reciprocal act—a kind of reaching out in hopes of being understood, in adding somehow to the volumes of human perspectives. These are keys to democratic living. It is a great thrill for me to see these discoveries take place within the students I teach. Having recently graduated with a master's degree in Literature and Writing, during which I also taught two college-level freshman writing courses, I am well versed

Levi K - Salt Lake City, UT 84104 (1.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $62.50/hr.
I love working with children and kids of all ages. My teaching methods include asking many questions to encourage children to reach for the answer(s) as well as to make the subjects as fun and as interesting as possible. I have the ability to reach the child on their level. I always give praise for effort as well as for trying and encourage those that I tutor, to strive for knowledge. I feel that education is of the utmost importance in a child's life to help them develop and grow properly. I am a graduate of a small private University in Virginia with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Multimedia Design. I have taken ample Mathematics classes since my graduation in 2005 and have spent in all about seven years tutoring and teaching both kids and adults in Mathematics, Science and English. I understand Mathematics as a second language and excel in Science and English because of my knack for mem

Aaron G - Salt Lake City, UT 84102 (1.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.50/hr.
In preparation for college, I knew that in order to get into the kind of small private colleges I was looking for, earning a high enough score on the standardized exams like the SAT and ACT was very important. Although I scored very well on both tests, my writing and reasoning skills underwent great improvement in my college's intensive honors program for accelerated studies. Since 2005 I have been tutoring full time, and teaching in small classrooms for the Anchorage school district. I have had great success with a variety of students and types of curriculums in all subject matters. My teaching style varies depending on the type of students I am teaching to because I believe that each student has a particular learning style that they find easier. I think that it is important to find the types of learning that each student finds easiest to understand, and tailor the course so that it wor

Peter M - salt lake city, UT 84101 (1.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $42.50/hr.
My teaching style incorporates an initial understanding of the student. I believe that it is crucial to understand the needs, wants, and habits of the individual to get the most out of each session. I am able to create an atmosphere which makes the work seem interesting and even fun at times, giving the students a new perspective on the many times 'boring' subjects to them. I also consider myself one who is able to push the student to their full potential. When a student surprises oneself with an ability to overcome a challenging problem and find a solution on their own, I know I have done my job. I want this result with every single student I work with. Being a recent graduate of the University of Portland with a degree in International Business and Finance, I have already had the opportunity to use my skills by working in Financial Services in London.

Samuel S - Salt Lake City, UT 84102 (1.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My direct experience is with adult learners. In my current position at USA TODAY, one of the largest newspapers in the country, I am heavily involved with technology training. Not only do I work with developing new training materials (from PowerPoint to video to documentation), I also do live classroom training. I tutored younger students for my college internships where I worked with fifth graders. Both short internships were fulfilling, but I ultimately opted to go to the corporate world. I try to give my students the tools and resources they need to move beyond what they learn in the classroom. It is not enough that a student is engaged in the classroom. He or she needs to be able to apply what they have learned to real world situations. It is always my goal to help students see how to connect what they learn in class to the real world.

Lauren T - Salt Lake City, UT 84105 (1.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As a Duke graduate, I have had a very well rounded liberal arts education and am thus well acquainted with a variety of subjects. While my degree is in Spanish literature and history, I have had experience tutoring students in math and English as well. I love working with students one on one to develop a tailored approach that will work best for the student. Once we discover together the most appropriate method to access the material, I find that students thrive quickly. I am patient and determined and I thoroughly enjoy watching my students succeed with my help.

Rachael S - Salt Lake City, UT 84115 (1.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.50/hr.
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
