À propos

Husband, father, writer, teacher, soccer coach, Type 1 diabetic...I wear many hats and I wear them all well. Teaching is my passion. I really believe in the value of education. The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind is one of my favourite movies and it speaks to the value of education for individuals, their families, and their communities - no matter the circumstances. I look forward to helping you on your learning journey. My areas of strength: writing and composition (essays, academic writing, creative writing), teaching English as a Second Language (ESL), history, social studies, French language (beginner to intermediate).

Expérience professionnelle

Learn With Adrien

November 2020 - present
Private Tutor
I started private tutoring during the pandemic. My wife and I had been operating a commercial cleaning business and with the pandemic-related lockdowns and shutdowns, many of our clients no longer required our services. We had been working almost seven days a week since I left my job at the John Howard Society of Victoria and so I was ready for a break! I also have two young children and so private tutoring works well with my home life. I tutor primarily high school students in English, social studies, science, and math.

Employment Counselor
One of the best jobs I've ever had. This was the job where I realized that teaching and being able to help others unlock their potential were things that I was naturally good at and loved doing. I had a fantastic supervisor and mentor. This job involved me working with adolescents and adults who needed help finding work. I became an expert at resumes and cover letters and the job search process. I did a lot of networking. I never failed a client (every client I worked with, I worked with them until they were successful in their job search.)
