Award-Winning Test Prep Tutors serving Salt Lake City, UT

...to catch up. My goal is to work together to pick up the pieces that were lost or are close, but not quite there: learning the way you want 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...

...love seeing my students have a "light-bulb" moment where suddenly everything we discussed makes sense to them. I think it is extremely important for everyone to have (at least) a basic understanding of math and science as this helps us to better understand our world. I am greatly motivated to teach in a way that my students understand the fundamental principles and not in a way that they can merely get the right answer. I...

...is to spark the fun and excitement of learning within the student. I have tutored primarily middle and high school students but am comfortable with any age. I tutor many subjects, but am especially proficient in the areas of test preparation, math, and Spanish.

...more weekly reviews to another 60-150 students each week at BYU in the American history, economics, and political theory class called American Heritage.

...a lot of explanation. In most things, I'm not that guy! Like many students, understanding comes with repetition of principles and hard work. I have the perspective of a student trying to understand, not a teacher trying to preach. I love working with people from the ground up; we start at the comfort zone and work our way to improvement. I know I don't know everything, so I'm excited to learn as well!... Start where you...

...earned my Bachelors of Science in Physics, I developed a passion for education, which I intend to continue with now that I have moved to Washington DC.

...helping people. One of the sweetest experiences in life is helping someone else to reach their full potential. I 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...

...helping my peers through school to tutor others in the best way possible. I graduated from the University of Utah's Mechanical Engineering program with a 3.9 GPA, so I have a good grasp of all of the subjects that were covered. Because I usually understood the material pretty quickly, I was often able to help my peers come to an understanding as well. I enjoy helping people understand how to think about problems and figure...

...just as a tutor, but as a person, a mentor, a friend. When I see people months or years later after tutoring, it's always a great reunion, even if we're in the grocery store! I've spent significant time in Spanish and German speaking countries as well as in the classroom, so my language skills go beyond the textbook and it gets really fun that way. As for music, my main instrument is trumpet, I have...

...currently a sophomore in college studying Mechanical Engineering. I enjoy math, physics, and Chinese! I grew up living in Hong Kong, China, and just returned to America from living in Taiwan. I have been speaking Mandarin Chinese for 13 years of my life, 2 of which I spent acting as a translator for visitors while I was living in Taiwan. Chinese is my life, I have been learning since I was in 3rd grade. I...

Let's make learning fun!

...integral part of my career. I just recently graduate from BYU with a Bachelor's in Physics and will start graduate school in the fall, with the eventual goal of teaching physics in a college setting. Beyond the world of teaching, I love volleyball and the outdoors. Hiking, camping, backpacking, being outside energizes my soul. Volleyball is my sport, and I love teaching the basics to people, but I enjoy practically all sports, despite my pitiable...

...big believer in catering to 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...

Math is another plus at the elementary level and Middle school level. When I'm not teaching I enjoy working and researching Family History,...

...to have phobia for science, especially maths. I used to tell myself, "I can't do this, this would be the end of me." 18 years down the line, here I am, a Masters Degree holder in Chemical Engineering from Texas A&M, and a Program Manager for a leading Aerospace and Defense Company. Over the course of my academic endeavor, I have been privileged to be taught by teachers skilled in pedagogy. They built my confidence...

...pay it forward. I have a bachelor's and master's degree in music performance, I was a physical science teacher's assistant for a core freshman level class in college, and I have ADHD. I homeschool my children, and have taught many individuals of many different neurotypes. I am upbeat and give my students a lot of energy and creativity to inspire engagement to the highest levels. I'd love to help you with what I can!

...receiving a Bachelor of Arts in History. While I love history, I am also passionate about math, reading, and writing. I have had the opportunity to work with a number of age groups--from kindergarten to high school--tutoring math, reading, and writing. I believe that education is one of the most important gifts we can give to the children in our lives. It is important to me to help children gain a love of learning.

...the University College Dublin and a BA in economics from Brigham Young University. I am originally from Accra-Ghana in Sub-saharan Africa. I love to dance. I like to travel and meet new people and cultures. I think teaching is an art that can be mastered. A person can be a subject-matter expert but may be poor at teaching it. Teaching requires patience, explaining things at the basic level and putting yourself in the shoes of...

...means to BE a student. Standardized tests, subjects that I just didn't get, and all these other educational obligations had me perplexed. I was lucky enough to acquire a great tutor of my own who helped navigate through my studies. Test-taking strategies and deeper comprehension of certain topics was exactly what I needed to get through my classes and tests. Along with a great study plan, I hope to employ a similar type of experience...
