I use the Orton- Gilingham multi sensory approach.

I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school.
ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts.

More About This Tutor...

I never realized exactly why people go into teaching until I gained first hand experience. Teaching is one of the most rewarding things one can do as a profession. When I first started lab instructing, I immediately fell in love with it and did it as long as the university allowed me. I look forward to any teaching opportunity that may come my way in the future.
As a Weber State graduate, I majored in Zoology and minored in Chemistry. Even though science has always been a passion of mine, I am very knowledgeable in math. During my undergraduate studies, I have gained even more experience and improved on my grammatical skills. I had the opportunity to be an Anatomy lab instructor for three semesters. Additionally, I have had the opportunity to tutor my wife with her math. At first, this was a challenge. Math is a subject where one cannot only rely on memory. I found that it' ... read more

I graduated from Hampshire College with a degree in Anthropology and Photography. These degrees required rigorous researching including an intensive semester of independent field study. My field study culminated in a 70 page thesis and correlated gallery exhibition. In addition, I have extensive experience composing and organizing shorter research papers on variety of subjects and laboratory reports. Over the past year I have worked as an environmental educator with the Park Service and Fish and Wildlife Service introducing mixed audiences to a variety of topics related to geological processes and natural and cultural history. Previously, I have worked with elementary aged students as a tutor with the America Reads program to promote literacy.
I believe the most important trait a teacher can have is enthusiasm as it can be contagious and get students to completely engage a sub ... read more

The bachelor degree that I earned in Business Management required a substantial academic effort on my part. Writing the essays, business evaluations and case studies was at times overwhelming to me but I was able to complete them in a satisfactory manner. The fact it was difficult helps me to project myself into the various viewpoints of my students so that I can impart to them a clearer understanding of the targeted subjects. I started tutoring students while I was still in high school and since then I helped students of different, age, ethnic and language backgrounds with subjects such as taxation, customer service, economics, computer science, finance, math, accounting, history, electricity, English, Spanish, history, science and psychology.
I enjoy the challenge of teaching, I love enriching the lives of both children and adults. My experience has taught me that each person l ... read more

By day I work as a process engineer in a manufacturing facility. I love my job and the unique problems I get to solve every day. I also love teaching and have previously worked at tutoring centers tutoring high school students in math, science and ACT test prep. I love math and science and I love sharing them with students.
Because I have spent time at commercial tutoring centers, I know how to identify what type of learner your student is and what tools I can use to help them understand the abstract concepts math and science utilize. I also have the ability to tutor 2-3 students at a time in different subjects so feel free to ask about tutoring for multiple students in one session. I understand my role as a tutor is not just to get the student's homework done, it's to make sure your student knows the concepts and can perform when it's test time. They will not just improve ... read more

I have a Master of Arts degree in English from Utah State University and have taught EFL overseas and within the US. Recently (from 07-08), I worked as a Math Tutor for challenged fifth graders and also for Kindergarteners part-time at Lincoln Elementary in Layton while my son was in pre-school. I am competent in elementary math and sincerely enjoy helping others to find the inherent beauty of numbers and what they can do.
I love kids - they are often sweet, funny, easily impressed and are a great audience. I know that it is possible to make learning fun through a close, interactive relationship with a student - showing and guiding them through your own discovery of the subject. There have been times when I could feel one of my students learning; it is always a smile-provoking moment and I treasure every one.

Learning has always been important to me. I've always strived to further my education and find new things to learn. I have earned a Master's degree in Integrated Marketing Communications, which involved english, writing, math, business, reading and of course marketing. I also earned a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communications. A lot more english, and writing was had, but also included a great deal of editing and grammar skills. During college and since graduating I have taught Italian at a college level, as well as being a trainer at multiple jobs.
Teaching is something at which I feel I excel. I feel the best way to learn changes in each individual. Not just children, but adults as well. I seek out the best way for individuals to learn and go from there, whether that be through reading, interaction or visual stimuli. Anyone can learn, and achieve whatever they want, they just need ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that children are born smart. Some of them have special learning challenges and some have been taught to believe that they are not smart. By treating children as though they are intelligent and providing encouragement and learning opportunities, I have seen children grow and progress in almost astonishing ways. The sparkle in a child's eyes when they finally "get it" is the best paycheck.
After finishing my Masters Degree in Education I taught one year in a private school then opened my own business tutoring primarily homeschool students during the school year. The students I have worked with are primarily ages 11-18, but my experience with my own children includes the primary grades. I have tutored most subjects including reading, writing, science, history and math (through algebra).

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a college graduate with a BS in Elementary Education. My program emphasis was early childhood education. I have been tutoring and teaching for five years. I interned as a sixth grade teacher, while in college I student taught second grade and I spent one year teaching three preschool classes. Throughout my schooling I have tutored students, k-6, in math, English, reading and science.

I am here to work with your child to find the best way for them to learn. I believe that learning should be fun. I also strive to show children how they will use what they are learning in real life so they can understand the importance.

My general approach is to assess the student's learning style and adapt my assistance to that as best as I can. I want to help the student become familiar and comfortable with the subject. I am gifted at breaking the subject down into smaller pieces, allowing the student who is struggling to gain confidence. I believe in building the student's understanding of the subject into a broader context to help the student appreciate the subject more and see how it actually applies to real life.
I am highly qualified to tutor others in chemistry, especially organic chemistry. I have B.S. and M.S. degrees in chemistry, and have almost 10 years of professional experience as a chemist. I have also been a high school teacher of chemistry and physics. I also have tutored college students in organic chemistry. I have also tutored elementary school students in math and reading.

As a 5th grade bilingual teacher, I have a strong commitment to each of my students. I tutor students outside of classroom time in order to ensure that they are successful. I have experience tutoring students in mathematics and reading. My graduate work consisted of an MA in teaching with an emphasis on research. I am also well versed in math, science, history, reading, and writing, and I earned a certificate of excellence for my elementary content knowledge on the Praxis test.
I love teaching children and finding ways of making learning come alive for them. I am always looking for creative ways to help students connect with what they are learning. For example, as a summative project in our unit on circuit electricity, my students built small, electric go-karts. Additionally, I am firmly committed to establishing a strong foundation of academic knowledge for my students. I ... read more

As a social worker I have experience with submitting extensive reserach papers and psychosocial assessments. I have worked under the directiong of two supervisors who helped me fine tune my writing. I am comfortable with adjusting to personal styles of writing or a more structured voice. I have also studied psychology and sociology and am very confident in my communication skills. Although I have not tutored within a program I have worked as a literacy and reading coordinator in Boston, MA and have done peer editing for years.
I have learned that when helping students learn it is important to think outside the box. I assisted in a middle school's afterschool homework sessions for emotionally disadvantaged teenagers. The only way to be successful in this scenario was by meeting the student where they were at and guiding them as carefully and directly as possible. I am patient and tr ... read more

I have not taught professionally, but I do have to help roommates and classmates with their work on a regular basis. I like to give them little tricks and tips for figuring out different kinds of problems. I don't like to just tell them how to do the problem. Instead I want them to figure it out on their own with my guidance and advice. I am patient but I also want the people I help to succeed.
I am currently between my junior and senior year at Coastal Carolina University where I have a 3.998 GPA. I have received many honors and awards for my academic achievement such as induction to the Omicron Delta Kappa Honor Society. I have always received excellent grades in math and science, but also in the humanities. My mother is a middle school teacher who has taught at all levels of education. I have been to her classes to assist her in teaching her students math and reading skill ... read more

While attending school I have had many experiences teaching and tutoring a variety of students. I have served as a student teacher in the second and fourth grade, and have taught lessons in a fifth-sixth grade split, as well as a first-grade classroom. I also have experience in two YMCA CARES after school programs. In both programs, I have worked closely with the students, tutoring, chaperoning field trips, as well as planning and arranging activities.
It is important that I create a supportive, safe, environment in which all learners can grow and succeed. I will do this by celebrating the diversity in my students, creating lessons that support the varied learning styles, using research based teaching methods, and by differentiating my lessons so that all the varied learning levels can thrive. I will also encourage exploration, risk taking, and remove the stigma of making a mis ... read more
