University of Guelph
Current Math and Physics Teacher, Math Motivator, Confidence Builder, Contest Coach and Tutor
Hi, i'm Mr. Black, I am a mathematics and physics teacher, tutor and coach. I like to focus on my students individual goals no matter what they may be. We are all different and that is an important thing. Some of us want to pursue trades school, some want to study the cosmos, both are equally important. I will personally tailor lessons towards your specific goals and help you reach them. Maybe you only need help with homework. Or, you want to improve in mathematics and problem solving in general. Perhaps you are looking to enter a STEM program and want to get the best preparation possible. In our first meeting we will discuss your goals and each lesson will be curated to reach them. Mathematics is often confusing because people do not see the pattern. Once the pattern is found, the math is clear. I will help guide you towards seeing the patterns and understanding the mathematics so you do not feel like your learning a million different things. One of my skills that i've developed over the many years as a math educator is being able to diagnose the underlying problem by asking a few simple questions. Once it is clear what you are misunderstanding, I will provide a set of problems and questions which are designed meticulously to bring you from your level to the level you want to be. I like to remind my students that they are smart and creative and they can become better at math just like any other activity or sport; through practice. In this case, guided practice. I will be a coach, a teacher, a tutor, and at times perhaps a peer since my students surprise me all the time with their unique abilities. I want to show you that you can be good at math and it might just require a change of perspective on the subject. Math can be fun and engaging and isnt just a bunch of recipes and instructions. I have lots of experience building fun and creative problems, puzzles and games for math contests and K12 math. I hope to share my passion for math with you!

David T.
Univeristy of Cambridge
Cambridge-educated tutor with over 10 years of teaching experience
Over the last decade, since graduating from Cambridge with an MSci in Natural Sciences, I have worked as a classroom science teacher, a private educator and a university and schools consultant in Monaco, Dubai, Switzerland, the UK, and the USA. Throughout this time I have worked with students as young as 5, all the way up to MBA students. Although I'm passionate about sharing my love for all aspects of STEM, my primary focus has been on math(s), physics, chemistry, and biology tutoring for students up to the age of 18. That being said, I consider myself to be a STEM communicator as much as a teacher, and over the last decade I have had the privilege of leading students through lessons on pretty much any topic imaginable. My goal is to meet each of my students on their own terms and impart a deep appreciation and understanding of the topic at hand. To begin with we'll spend time discussing your personal aims and assessing your problem areas, then come up with specific plans to address each of these in turn. I strongly believe that students learn best when they are relaxed and enjoying themselves, so I strive to make my classroom a positive environment where you won’t be afraid to make educated guesses or get the answer wrong. In general, we will begin each topic by discussing the themes and ideas behind it, before going over some related questions together. Once you’re feeling more confident, I’ll then set you some work to try on your own. I try to cover most of the necessary work in class, but I can also provide extra work to be done in your own time, if required. I am very aware that everyone learns differently and understands concepts in their own way, so I adapt my techniques to fit each individual. What I can guarantee is that in each lesson we will work together to address and understand concepts in a way that makes sense to you. Get in touch so we can go over your learning style, get to know each other and discuss the best way to help you reach your goals.

Anisha L.
University of Guelph, University of Ottawa, University of Melbourne
Expert Biology, Chemistry, & MCAT tutor (12+ years experience) - Medical Student & PhD Graduate
Having completed my PhD in Neuroscience, I have since gone on to start medical school at the start of 2022. I have over 12 years of experience tutoring and teaching university level courses. I have tutored students 1-on-1, helping to identify areas of issues and finding solutions that best suit the individual needs of each student. As a previous teaching assistant at the University of Ottawa, I am also well acquainted with the curriculum, labs/assignments, and expectations of the courses. I have often found that overlooking simple details and/or misunderstandings have stood in the way of student's reaching their full potential (an A+!) and I would love to help you get the grades you deserve. I am patient, approachable, and a firm believer that there are no "silly questions". I'm here to offer a judgement-free learning environment, and offer support and guidance in helping you to gain a deeper understanding of your course material. Do not hesitate to reach out if you're in need of a tutor - I would be happy to arrange a free consult to hear about where you are in your studies, and discuss how I can help you achieve the best grades possible!
