Professional Tutor and University of Toronto Neuroscience graduate offering Biology, Chemistry, Math, Humanities and French tutoring.
Methodology
My teaching methods include a multi-faceted approach focusing on visual and verbal learning, using diagrams and demonstrations to allow students to reach the best understanding they can. I use real life examples and 'fun facts!' to keep students engaged and interested in their subject.
For 7 years I have advanced my ability to tutor many high school level subjects including sciences (Biology, Chemistry, and general Science), Mathematics, English, History, Philosophy, and French.
I have learnt how to adapt lessons and questions for all different learners and students, ensuring the best possible outcome and understanding.
Background
I have a degree in Neuroscience and Bioethics from the University of Toronto, and have been tutoring professionally for over 7 years. I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds across a variety of subjects who have gone on to excel in their university and college programs. I have a huge passion for teaching and love helping students discover and reach their potentials.
