More About This Tutor...

Hello, my name is Lauren and I absolutely love tutoring! I have tutored since I was in high school (about 5 years of experience total)and more recently have worked as a Peer Tutor at Westminster College, as well as teaching private voice and piano lessons. As a biology major, I'm most experienced in science and math related areas, particularly general biology, general chemistry, statistics, algebra, and geometry. I am also very qualified to tutor ACT and SAT test prep, as I scored extremely high in all areas of the two tests, earning a 34 on the ACT and a 2190 on the SAT. I'm also qualified to tutor in several humanities areas, especially writing-a skill strongly emphasized by Westminster's intensive and selective Honors Program. I have also taken AP tests in English Literature (5), Human Geography (5), European History (4), and American History (4) and IB tests in English (6) an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 l ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all students can learn mathematics. I see it to be my responsibility as a teacher to accommodate individual learning needs and to continue trying new approaches until the student has understood the material. I will adapt my teaching style to the needs of the student - they after all are the one being served, not the other way around!
I started teaching chess at an elementary school in 2002, and continued there until 2006. While there I gained an appreciation for the power and joy of working with youth. I graduated in 2007 with a BS in Mathematics Education, and I have been teaching in the classroom for the last two years. While in college I began tutoring mathematics, and I have now been tutoring for the last six years - I have enjoyed every moment of it!

I graduated with honors from Univ of Utah and then completed MBA while working full time. I have invested 25 years in business operations management as a career. I have not received anything less than an A- in a math class since 8th grade. I have been adjunct teaching at Salt Lake Community College and LDS Business College since Fall 2003. I have taught mathematics, statistics, and software applications. Course evaluations have always been high, and student feedback has been very positive. Education is the key to any improvement effort - productivity, quality, etc. I have also tutored approx 10 students during the last 5 years.
I love watching people learn - seeing the mental light bulbs turn on and glow. My style is one that encourages collaboration and involvement between teacher and student. I strive to not be the sage on the stage, rather the guide on the side. W ... read more

I love teaching and bring others to that "ah-ha" moment in their learning. I feel that anyone can learn a subject if they are willing to try. My teaching style is based on asking questions and helping lead the student to the answer through there own power. I do not, and will not just give answers. Students all learn in different ways, I try to understand their way of thinking and use this to best help them learn.
As a recent graduate of Utah Valley University, I have always had a love for math and sciences. I have my bachelors degree, BS in Mathematics, which has helped me gain an understanding in all different types of math, and some sciences. Along with my degree I have experience as a tutor in all levels of math, including geometry, algebra, college algebra, calculus, and statistics. I also have had experience as a volunteer student teacher at a local high school. I enjoy helpi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from the University of Utah with a double-major in math (with an emphasis in statistics) and economics, and a minor in international studies. This fall I will begin a master’s program in International Comparative Education (educational development in third world countries) at Stanford University. I have been giving private lessons in math for over six years and have had over 60 pupils thus far. Most of my pupils currently are in Intermediate Algebra or College Algebra, though I can teach math through Calculus III, linear algebra, differential equations, and analysis. I have taught all ages, from 5 to 74. Most of my pupils are either in junior high or college. For my younger pupils, I hope to not only help them understand the math, but get excited about learning it. I feel I have been very successful with the 50+ kids I have taught over the past six years. Besides helping the ... read more

Tutoring begins and ends with the student. As a collaborative effort, the tutoring process differs from teaching in that the tutor not only guides the student but also magnifies what skills the student has. Rather than empower tutors, tutorials give students the knowledge, ability, and expertise to carry out future tasks. For many, confidence comes through practice, modeling, and questioning. Once students become aware of the critical process, they will be able to carry their skills with them throughout their academic career and beyond. I approach my students not as a final authority but as someone who wishes to share my experience with them. Whether through drilling fundamental vocabulary or grammar, brainstorming ideas, examining logic, or revising finished papers, I help my students not only on their papers, but in the process of writing and study methods as well, ensuring that fu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In the pursuit of my own education I have learned that a teacher who is truly in this field because they love it are the ones who are best at it. That dedication stays with students for a lifetime. Because there are different stratagies that will work for different students, my focus is on finding a technique that will work for a particular student.With my patience and determination I can help provide an upstanding education for students.
As a graduate with my BA in English I have developed by ability to discuss and discover new solutions and alternative ideas. This has also inhanced my skills in communication, both oral and written. Over the past year I have also done substitute teaching at a local charter school. This experience has furtherd my desire to interact and contribute to our youth.

More About This Tutor...

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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a very versatile tutor who believes in adjusting my own teaching style to fit the particular learning style of my students. I am extremely patient, kind, and creative. My goal is to make learning relevant and relatable, because those qualities ensure that a subject is memorable and understandable. I believe that all students can succeed as long as they are shown how to use their inherent strengths and turn their supposed weaknesses to their best advantage.
For six years I have enjoyed a "love affair" with teaching. Beginning with two years as an elementary school tutor, I was able to gain experience in teaching all subjects, and specialized in reading for students with learning disabilities. Once I began graduate school I began tutoring undergraduate students in a variety of subjects within the colleges of humanities and social and behavioral science. I also worked as a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love seeing people learn. I love the look in a student's eye when they think about something in a way they've never thought about it before. I love to facilitate that type of learning because it brings me great satisfaction. I especially love to work with children because they are so willing to learn and they absorb information so quickly. I am grateful for amazing teachers and dedicated parents who helped me with my education when I was young, and I want to pass that on to other children.
Ever since I was a young girl, I have loved learning. This passion for learning new things has given me the motivation to earn my Bachelor's degree in Humanities (emphasis: Music) as well as my Master's degree in Comparative studies. Through the writing and publication of my thesis, I have gained valuable experience editing, researching, and proofreading as well as learning analytical and criti ... read more

Education has been a major goal in my life and as I achieve that goal I find my self transitioning into helping others with the same goal.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have previously been a tutor for private individuals while I was making my way through college, and also as a professional duty while I was employed by the Salt Lake City Public Library, where I worked for six years. I have not been a tutor for a few years, although I currently volunteer with the International Rescue Committee in Salt Lake by assisting program workers teach english speaking and reading skills to new refugee immigrant women.
I love teaching, but to students about 12 and older. I am able to relate and connect well with them, and let them learn and take pride in their progress. Especially with younger kids, a high degree of focus on my part can be necessary to keep them on task, but I find that one can be firm with them and not need to be patronizing or forceful.

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 ... read more
