Pinyi Y. - Salt Lake City, UT 84117 (25 mi) - Logic Tutor - $22.50/hr.
I recently graduated from college, with a degree in math. Personally, I love maths, because everything in math is logical, and maths is the most fundamental subject for a lot of things. Here are some of the classes I have taken: Calculus 1, 2, 3, Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Intro to Data Structures, Projective Geometry, Advanced Calculus, Abstract Algebra, Bayesian Data Analysis, etc. I have tutored colleges students in maths for more than two years now. I managed to explain and clarify math theories, address and keep track of each tutee’s weak points and help them finish their class successfully. I also tutored Chinese in college; not only did I help the students understand the language but also the culture.

star l. - Salt Lake City, UT 84112 (28.4 mi) - Logic Tutor - $30.00/hr.
My first and most recent experience was working with a young middle-school boy whom I was able to help improve his grades in Algebra from earning 20% on weekly quizzes to 93%. I worked with this client one hour a week for about two months, after that time he was doing well enough on his own and no longer required my services.

Jesse C - Provo, UT 84604 (10.6 mi) - Logic Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I prefer sitting at the student's elbow, with the assigned work in between us, focusing on it together. I talk about "it" rather than "you" to avoid making the student self-conscious. Writing can always be improved, and each student has areas of strength and weakness. I try to pick one area that needs the most attention, and focus on it. When there is significant improvement, I move on to the next area of weakness. Pointing out all of a student's mistakes and weaknesses at once drains morale, and that is counterproductive. Working on one area at a time keeps the student from being overwhelmed. I like to have the student read out loud to me, so that we can both see what needs improvement. I also point out what was done correctly to boost confidence. Goals are important, as well as establishing a time frame for achieving them.

Teaching is a gift from the student to the teacher. The student is giving their time and attention to the teacher in hopes that they will increase in understanding, ability, or skill. This is a time where the students is relaxed and open to learning new ideas. There is not pressure to learn, but an excitement to succeed. All students can learn, given the proper instruction. Teachers have to pay attention to the learning preferences of the student. Effective instruction identifies strengths to build on and uses them to teacher additional concepts. Weaknesses and gaps in learning are identified and remedied. I greatly enjoy teaching mathematics. I know that I have made a difference in lives of my students. While attending USU, I spent two semesters working at Wilson Elementary School. I was a teachers aide in the special education classroom. I provided instruction and practice in

Katherine W - Provo, UT 84606 (12.9 mi) - Logic Tutor - $61.00/hr.
My experience at Brigham Young University instilled in me a desire to pursue lifelong learning and to assist others in their own quest for knowledge. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in English Education and took advanced courses in Math and Spanish (I taught English in El Salvador). During my time at BYU, I fine-tuned my writing skills and also helped other students do the same, especially as I worked as an editor of a university journal. I have had the chance to present scholarly papers at professional conferences.
I have taught ACT preparation classes relating to all areas of the test (math, science, English, and reading comprehension). I have also been a private English, history, and science tutor. I strive to help your child achieve academic and personal success.
In my student teaching, I saw first-hand the need for students and teachers to have a relationship where

Peter S - Provo, UT 84606 (12.9 mi) - Logic Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe any child can learn the basics of any subject, but it requires that the teacher find a method of explanation that the child can understand. I believe that direct guidance is preferable during the initial stages of learning, but must be followed with opportunities for the child to solidify the knowledge on his or her own. Regardless of the approach, teaching happens best in a loving and non-judgmental atmosphere, which I will strive to foster with each of my students. I believe that if done correctly, a good educator can make all the difference in a child’s life, and that will be my goal for each of my students. I have long had a love of learning, which has most recently expressed itself in my earning a BS in Psychology from Brigham Young University. This area of study gave me experience in the fields of math and writing, as I had to perform and analyze numerous psychological ex

Brandon S - Provo, UT 84604 (13.2 mi) - Logic Tutor - $36.00/hr.
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

Jonathan H - Provo, UT 84606 (13.3 mi) - Logic Tutor - $49.50/hr.
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

David L - Orem, UT 84058 (13.4 mi) - Logic Tutor - $35.50/hr.
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!

Anoah David E - Provo, UT 84604 (13.5 mi) - Logic Tutor - $35.00/hr.
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
