Tutoring Experience In my 30-year career as a science teacher, I’ve helped thousands of students excel at science.

My Math Story I first got involved in tutoring Math during my first year at Western in 2016. Ever since, I have been fortunate enough to help numerous students reach their academic goals.  In high school, I struggled with math till I connected with a tutor in grade 11. I came to realize the value of having a tutor who understood how I learned and was able to explain concepts thoroughly. I apply these same principles to my tutoring students today. Below are some testimonials from students I’ve tutored. I look forward to working with you soon.
