I believe in example-based tutoring — I seek to provide students with stepwise explanations of topics or practice problems which give them a more thorough understanding than a simple explanation. Prior to my classes, I ask students to provide me with a brief summary of what they struggling with so that I can arrange practice questions for them. For all of my lessons, I write personalized notes which I send to my students at the end of the class so that they can continue studying and can engage in the lesson without having to write notes themselves.
A Schulich Scholar and undergraduate student at McMaster University, I have strong academic experience with math and chemistry, both of which I am comfortable teaching at a high school or undergraduate level. My area of study is Integrated Science and I work as a researcher at the University. I was a tutor for four years throughout high school, and directed a large tutoring network for students where I was responsible for training tutors and assessing tutees.

Perfect! Henry was great, I feel very confident having him help me with my math. Thank you
Henry was my chemistry tutor during grade 11. He was very helpful and took the time I needed to explain all the topics I was learning. Henry is an excellent tutor because he always asks for feedback so that he can teach at the right pace and he always made sure that I understood something before moving on.
I was a math student of Henry for a year. He was a great tutor because he always came prepared, with examples to show me, and sends me notes from our lessons so that I can study later. He is very knowledgable, and helped me improve my mark significantly over the course of a few months!
