About
Hi! My name is Connor! I was born and raised in Utah, but have lived all over the state so pinning down a home city is impossible. I'm currently attending UVU as an anthropology major with the hopes o... f one day becoming a professor. I plan on graduating with my Bachelor's in 2025.
In my free time, I enjoy pursuing a variety of hobbies and interests, anything from rock climbing to reading to bar hopping or thrift shopping.
One thing that truly brings me deeper joy though, is tutoring. I find great satisfaction in helping others learn and grow, and ultimately, see the world through new eyes. My tutoring philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone is intelligent. Maybe just not book intelligence. That doesn't mean we all can't find different, yet effective, ways to learn the same things. That's why I create an environment that fosters creativity, curiosity, and learning.
I'm also committed to offering my student that same creativity and curiosity in my approach to their individual needs and preferred learning styles. I've found great success in this regard as I've successfully taught a diverse background of people needing help with diverse subjects.
So, what makes me "me"? I believe that my passion for learning, combined with my empathy and patience, are core aspects of my personality that allow me to connect with my students and help them thrive. No matter the subject, I'm always excited to help my students unlock their full potential.read more
