Award-Winning PSAT Tutors serving Salt Lake City, UT

...students' learning styles. I pay attention to whether they are an audio, visual, or kinesthetic learner, and then I tutor accordingly. I am currently a junior at Brigham Young University. I am an Applied & Computational Mathematics major with a concentration in Electrical and Computer Engineering: Circuits. I have earned the high in many of my math and physics courses. In addition, I placed third in my university's undergraduate math competition while only a freshman....

...weekly English classes over the course of 6 months to non-English speakers in Brazil, class size generally ranging from 15-45 students from ages 11 to 75; I was a private Portuguese tutor for 4 months, bringing my Spanish-speaking student from nearly no knowledge of Portuguese to being conversational; and I was an editing intern for 4 months for the Riga Ghetto and Latvian Holocaust Museum, editing and revising the final 145 pages of a historical...

...have had many people like that that have tried to help me to reach my potential and so I would also love to help others to do the same. I'm a neuroscience major at BYU and I love music in every aspect (dancing, singing, listening, playing instruments, composing, etc.) I have worked with students sporadically since 2011. I tutor especially in mathematics, the sciences, and spanish. I believe that everyone learns differently and I strive...

...and English. I taught 7th grade math (pre-algebra) for a year and was the peer tutoring mentor teacher during that time. For the last year and a half I have worked with the teenage girls at church. I teach biweekly Sunday School lessons and help plan weekly activities. Currently I stay at home with our two little boys while my husband works on a PhD at Stanford and I love it, but I miss teaching...

I have a PhD in Biomedical Engineering. I am starting a part-time lecturer position at Paul Quinn College in the fall for General Biology I lab and lecture. I love to learn and teach. I read books, play board games, and do puzzles in my free time. ... I would find out what interests the student and try to find a way to incorporate that into the lessons, so that the student wants to learn.... Try...

...and I can't get enough! I tutor in a lot of different subjects, like English, history, beginning Spanish, science, and more, but my favorite subject to tutor in is math. It gets a bad rap, so I find it so exciting to watch it "click" for people. In my academic career I have worked through challenges with ADHD and testing anxiety, and I find it very rewarding to help students overcome these challenges as well!

...and I am excited to help people understand these topics better. I don't have any direct tutoring/teaching experience (yet!), but I have spent years helping peers and friends learn more about STEM topics. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to help anyone that needs me. I will help you develop your critical thinking and problem-solving skills by working through problems together, asking lots of questions, and keeping you engaged and motivated. Feel free...

...students to appreciate their chosen academic career path and creating a decision to further pursue degrees in business and accounting. However, I find the most success when I find students use the problem-solving skill-sets I teach in their everyday lives. I try to convey the importance of a rigorous study and examination of textbooks and outside readings to improve the classroom experience and therefore, a student's overall education. The modern approach to education, with a...

...that challenged my analytical skills. As I progressed through grade school, my enthusiasm for math only grew stronger, fueled by inspiring teachers who nurtured my curiosity and encouraged me to explore the subject further. In high school, I eagerly seized every opportunity to delve deeper into the world of mathematics and engineering. I participated in math competitions, where I relished the thrill of applying my problem-solving abilities in a competitive setting. Additionally, I enrolled in...

...just giving them the answers. My favorite part about helping others learn is seeing their confidence in their abilities grow as the connections are made and as they are able to work through problems with limited assistance from me. By the time I've finished helping someone, I want them to have grasped the material, but also to have confidence and excitement at what they've achieved. I tend to tailor my teaching style to the person...

...expand our understanding. I am a very hands-on tutor. I believe that working directly with things and especially working on projects of interest helps us learn and make connections better than anything else. I love analogies, experiments, and anything else that helps bring the problems off the page and into the student's life. I love to invent and build things and I spend most of my spare time working on humanitarian teams through my university...

...I am, a Masters Degree holder in Chemical Engineering from Texas A&M, and a Program Manager for a leading Aerospace and Defense Company.

Now it is my turn to shine my light. I have been teaching undergraduate and high school students for over...

...Right after that, I transferred to the University of Utah where I completed my B.S. Applied Mathematics. Now, I am working on a Ph.D. Mathematics while I travel around Europe with my family. I am in love with the beauty of mathematics, and being able to help other people understand it! Being able to use programming to solve math problems is really cool, and being able to use math to solve programming problems is even...

...lifelong learners. I believe that learning begins at birth. From learning to walk and talk to learning French and statistics, the brain’s journey is the same. I believe in a motivational approach to learning and encouraging students. I think that our strengths and weaknesses should not define what we are skilled at but should help us develop skills across subject matters. For most of my academic career, I believed that I was bad at math...

...to learn and the way you learn best rather than having topics taught at you. For standardized testing: I have taken the special classes and labored through the workbooks to prepare for taking the exams myself. The trick is to learn the test and know how to beat it with the right tools, and I am eager to pass along what I have learned from years of studying for and taking standardized tests. There is...

I started tutoring students in January of 2016 and I fell in love with tutoring students with math right away. I am always willing to help students with math because I want students to see that math is not always a burden to them. Every student I help would have a different perspective on math if...

...curriculum, but we tutors are the ones who write the lesson plans. So, how is my other job relevant and how does it benefit you students? Well, in addition to the learning materials Varsity provides, I can offer additional word problems, flash cards, notes, lesson plans, tests, quizzes, etc. Study with me, and I promise we'll never run out of learning material! Moreover, I promise to create a safe learning space where everyone can express...
