Everything Math, Science and Chinese

"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives." ~Clay P. Bedford I earned a Ph.D. doing Genetics research at the University of Utah. Knowledge is always fascinating to me: a concept is not just a concept, it has an infinite number of aspects to be understood and appreciated. Any simple idea, be it Math, Physics, Biology or Chinese, is interconnected with all other ideas through ...

I tutor all ACT subjects. ACT prep is a great way to consolidate the knowledge and bring student's understanding of the subjects to a higher ground. By going through the topics rapidly, new connections are discovered. That is when advanced learning takes place. Through ACT prep, the student truly gains a better grasp of the subject, which will be carried on to college. Of course the test score will increase as a consequence as well.

Kitty S. from Park City, UT

She went out of her way to help my son get caught up in Mandarin 4 after he missed several days of high school. He is graduating soon. I wish we had found Heng sooner. It would have made the last 4 years easier.


Alessia M. from Salt Lake City, UT

Heng is superb. She goes right to the point. I was impressed from her professionalism, patience, empathy and willingness to teach. She asked questions before our first meeting and came prepared. My daughter was a bit shy at the beginning but after 10 minutes they were alone laughing and playing together. Before leaving Heng gave me lot of suggestions and some materials to work on. We are really happy we met her!


Marlicia W. from Roy, UT

Heng has such a great way of explaining math that the problems became so simple. I would definitely recommend Heng X. and will work with her again myself if need be.


Brenda G. from North Salt Lake, UT

My daughter has only had one session with Heng so far, but there will be many more! Heng's very patient and knows her stuff. Thank you again!


Wayne Y. from Salt Lake City, UT

Highly recommended! Heng is a fantastic tutor who explains problems and is very patient. She is always willing to make time to help when I get stuck and is available whenever she is needed. I highly recommend her as a tutor because her knowledge of subject matter is fantastic. Heng is always kind and teaches at a pace that makes it much easier to understand. I have used other tutors but she actually is willing to really take the time to make certain I leave her confident and that I understand the material - Thanks!


Michele S. from Wappingers Falls, NY

I needed immediate help and Heng was really great and helped me out in a pinch. Thank you so much Heng. I appreciate it.


Justin D. from Draper, UT

Heng X. is a great tutor. Very knowledgeable and responds quickly with email and phone communication. Very accurate and on par with the specific and detailed help I needed for a very different kind of philosophy class.


Martin A. from Salt Lake City, UT

Heng is very supportive and has given me resources to help me be successful in my upcoming GRE test. She has shown me unique ways to approach and answer questions and has given me tips on how to do well on this test. Thanks a bunch!


Bryce H. from Salt Lake City, UT

I had an hour and a half session with her on Genetics. Heng knows her stuff and has a great personality that makes learning comfortable, and provides an atmosphere that is welcoming. Thanks again!


Becky J. from South Jordan, UT

Heng is a wonderful tutor. She is always very quick to respond to e-mails and it is very easy to schedule appointments with her. I felt Heng went the extra mile to make sure she was prepared to teach my daughter physics. She studied my daughter's assignments before she came to the tutoring session so she was ready to teach. My daughter was very apprehensive at first that a tutor wouldn't be helpful but Heng quickly changed her mind. My daughter's class is advanced and is moving at a very fast pace. Heng was great to make sure my daughter understood each concept before they moved on to the next problem. The smile on my daughter's face when Heng left made me know we had chosen a wonderful tutor. I would highly recommend Heng to other students and parents. She is worth every penny!


Hung-Shih C. from Salt Lake City, UT

She is able to pin point the main concepts and help my daughter to understand the context. She is a very knowledgeable instructor and understands what students need.


David O. from Park City, UT

Heng distinguished herself as a truly first rate teacher. Her academic credentials are outstanding. What is more important is her caring and nurturing style where she seeks out the children's strengths to create a dynamic learning environment. That is the mark of a true teacher. Our three children are native born Chinese and Heng was able to work with each in unique ways to engage them. She followed up with us on supplemental learning modules. She truly cares and creates the connection among students and parents to support the learning environment. Heng is excellent and we enthusiastically endorse her. She is a real talent. Updated: You will be hard pressed to find a more caring and dedicated teacher than Dr. Heng. We just adopted a little Chinese girl and Dr. Heng came over to our house to make sure we had all the tools to keep her engaged in her native language skills. Dr. Heng is pretty amazing!!!


Kirstie R. from Park City, UT

Heng is enthusiastic and full of encouragement during my son's lessons. He feels very motivated to work hard with her, and she keeps him engaged and on task. Working on sound formation can be repetitive at the start, but Heng has plenty of tactics to keep him focused. She is also full of praise when he gets something correct. Heng has been very professional and quick to respond in her communications and always follows up when she says she will send me work materials and internet links. She is a pleasure to work with from a parent's perspective.


Katie M. from Tooele, UT

My student has now had 3 lessons with Heng and I have been continually impressed after each one. She is tutoring him in ESL as well as ACT and TOFEL preparation. She continues to understand his needs and where he is academically better and better each time. She has been remarkably thorough - she had him bring all of his schoolwork (textbooks, folders, papers, notebooks), not just for English, but for all of his classes so she could understand all of his school needs and the types of assignments he was being asked to do. What has impressed me even more than that though is how she will not allow him to take the easy way out of things - particularly when it comes to his improving his English. She requires him to write longhand and goes over all of his grammar, etc. afterwards. She doesn't allow him to use a translator or computer or phone as a crutch. Instead he must use traditional dictionaries to make his connections with vocabulary. She expects him to listen and to struggle through the language at first because that's what has to happen to truly begin to understand. She knows that it can and will be hard in the beginning but that the struggle is necessary and vital. I couldn't be happier with her methods and already my husband and I are starting to see an improvement in our student's abilities. Something we hadn't seen much of at all in the first 3 months he's been with us and before he began working with Heng.


Wesley N. from Salt Lake City, UT

I was having a hard time to understand some concepts on physical science. Heng is a great tutor. Her skills and deep understanding plus my hard work help me to get 100% on my exam. She was very patient and very prompt to my concerns and doubts on the matter. Thank you very much.


Cindi L. from Salt Lake City, UT

My daughter has only great things to say about Heng. She is very easy to coordinate the dates and times to meet and tries to accommodate every day we need her. She is prepared and is interested in the student's needs. Very personable and knowledgeable about chinese. Niki plans to meet with her again soon. We are so fortunate to have found Heng on wyzant. Thank you!


Kris H. from Salt Lake City, UT

Heng was very patient and had more confidence in me than I did. When I wasn't wrapping my head around a concept, she gave me a good analogy to help. First lesson went really well.


Karim E. from Gainesville, FL

Heng X is an amazing tutor with great expertise in genetics and in a range of other disciplines. She approaches every question from multiple perspectives and is immensely knowledgeable in a broad spectrum of genetic tools and techniques. Her reviews and comments are very helpful and will make you have a new and unique outlook on the subject matter. She is very patient,flexible and prompt with responses. I look forward working with her in the future.


Chris C. from Draper, UT

My son is currently a sixth grader in the Utah State Chinese DLI program. He's done quite well for the first five years (elementary school) in the program, but found the work and studies more difficult once he began middle school this year. As a parent who does not speak Chinese, I was experiencing difficulty trying to assist him with homework and communicating with his teacher. So...I turned to searching out a tutor for help. I found the WyzAnt tutor site and quickly zeroed in on Heng. I like her cultural and educational background as well as her many hours of experience and good reviews. She did not disappoint! I set up an appointment for us to meet her at our local library. My son connected with her right away. Heng spent about 1 hour with him, analyzing his current subject matter, homework, and skill level. Afterwards her and I debriefed for about 15 minutes. Heng provided some great insight into the teacher's expectations (cultural difference comparing scholastic expectations in China and the US) of her students and what I could do to help. She also provided a clear understanding of my boy's skill level and what he needs to do both in class and for homework. He has been doing much better in his Chinese classes ever since. Do not hesitate to engage Heng. She is organized, professional, responds quickly, and delivers on expectations. A great tutoring experience!


Michael W. from Salt Lake City, UT

I asked Heng to challenge me, and she delivered. First couple lessons have been great, and I'm really looking forward to more.
