Math tutoring/ coaching—high school level topics and EXAM prep
From 48 C$ /h
Are you a student enrolled in high school Math? Or are you an adult learner seeking to improve your understanding of Math?
Are you uncertain, confused, frustrated about a Math question or concept? Or are you just wanting to make sure you are correct and ready for tests or exams?
This is an opportunity for you to come with specific questions which we can work on together. Please note that each student is urged to be an active player, and not a spectator on the sidelines. The tutor will not just give away answers but will seek to help you grasp and strengthen concepts and skills. But don’t worry...you will be treated with kindness and compassion no matter what your needs or abilities are. We just ask that you be willing to think and discuss and try.

About Me
Whether Math is a comfortable subject for you or one that causes you much frustration, it would be my privilege to get to know your needs and work together to help you achieve your goals.
I have been a Math teacher for about 37 years, and taught in 4 public high schools in southwestern Ontario, Canada, until my retirement from the classroom in 2017, when I shifted to part-time online Math tutoring with a program for the province of Ontario. I recently finished my involvement with them and am pleased to be available through Apprentus. Though my experience has been within Ontario, many of my students have been newcomers to Canada from multiple countries and languages. I welcome the opportunity to engage with people from other countries...if we can work out suitable arrangements across time zones :)
I love working with teens and adults who want to learn and grow. I have done that in formal education (such as teaching Math, Science, French, and newcomers to Canada), and also in other spheres of my life in volunteer counselling, charities and church.
Please see my course description for further details about how I intend to be of service to you.
