I'm going to assume $s$ is the arclength of $C$. In this case, first parameterise $C$ by arclength to obtain a function $\gamma: [0,2\pi] \to S$ whose image is $C$ (can you do this?). Then the function $\varphi(\gamma(s))$ is an ordinary happy function from $[0,2\pi]$ to $\mathbb{R}$, yes? It has a derivative, given by the chain rule:
$$\frac{d}{ds}\varphi(\gamma(s))=\nabla \varphi \cdot \tau$$
where $\nabla \varphi$ is evaluated at the point $\gamma(s)$, and $\tau$ is evaluated at $s$. Note the similarity between this derivative and the integrand in your question!
Remark about orientation: when you find $\gamma$ you can choose whether to go round the circle clockwise or anticlockwise. This will influence whether your tangent vector is $\tau$ or $-\tau$. Again, I leave this to you to think about (but tell me if you can't do it!)
Remark about the chain rule: For a function $f(x_{1},\ldots,x_{n})$ of $n$ variables, the gradient of $f$ is defined to be the vector of partial derivatives $$\nabla f = \left(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{1}}, \ldots ,\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{n}}\right)$$
where we obtain the partial derivative $\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{i}}$ by differentiating with respect to $x_{i}$, while keeping the other variables constant. However, we can choose to let the $x_{i}$ vary in a particular way, rather than in dependently. For example, in your curve $C$, we choose $x,y$ to be related by $x^{2}+y^{2}=1$, or equivalently that $x=\cos\theta$ and $y=\sin\theta$ for $\theta \in [0,2\pi]$. Formally, we have composed the function $\varphi(x,y,z)=x^{2}+y^{3}+z^{4}$ with the function $\gamma(s)=(\cos(s),\sin(s),0)$. So what happens if I change $s$? Well, $\varphi$ changes. How does $\varphi$ change? Well, it depends on how $x,y,z$ change. We intuitively expect that if $x,y,z$ change by $\delta x, \delta y, \delta z$ respectively, then
$$\varphi(x+\delta x,y+\delta y,z+ \delta z) \approx \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}\delta x + \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}\delta y + \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\delta z$$
Now, how do $x,y,z$ change? Well, we have taken $x=\cos(s)$, $y=\sin(s)$ and $z=0$. So we expect
$$\delta x \approx -\sin(s) \delta s$$
$$\delta y \approx \cos(s) \delta s$$
$$\delta z =0$$
In other words, if we write $\dot{\gamma}(s)=\frac{d \gamma}{ds}$, then we expect
$$\frac{d}{ds} \varphi(\gamma(s))=\nabla \varphi \cdot \dot{\gamma}(s)$$
which is the chain rule (what I have written is not a proof, but given the nature of the question I doubt a proof would be very helpful). For a curve $\gamma$ which is parameterised by arc-length, it turns out that $\dot{\gamma}$ is a unit vector tangent to $\gamma$ at $\gamma(s)$ (it is always a tangent vector, but it might not have unit length if you use a different parameterisation!). In other words, it is either $\tau$ or $-\tau$ (you have to check). From here the curve is a normal one-dimensional integral that you can easily do.
