Enthusiastic Physics and Mathematics Tutor - Physics PhD Student
Hi there, and welcome! I'm a PhD student in Physics at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. Prior to this, I got my Master's of Mathematics at the University of Waterloo in Applied Math, and a Bachelor of Mathematics studying Mathematical Physics. My research interests are at the intersection of astrophysics, particle physics, cosmology, and gravitational waves. I have been tutoring students since high school as a volunteer peer tutor in math and physics, and decided to continue tutoring throughout university. At the University of Waterloo I was a private tutor for several courses (see below), where I helped several students improve their academic performances. I've also been a teaching assistant for many courses at both the University of Waterloo and Queen's University (see below), and was awarded an Outstanding TA Award for my contributions. If you're struggling in your classes, or if you just want to deepen your understanding of physics and mathematics, then you've come to the right place! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you had any questions! ---------- To see if we'd be a good fit, the first 15 minutes of the first session is free! After that we can decide whether to continue working together.

Ammar I.
Queen's University, Nile University
Electrical Engineering Tutor
I am a graduate student with research experience, university level teaching experience, and tutoring expertise. I received my bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communications Engineering in 2024 with highest honors. I am currently working towards my master’s degree at Queen’s University, where being a Teaching Assistant at the Engineering Physics department is an important part of my journey towards earning my degree. I have had the opportunity at Queen’s University to teach Engineering Physics courses for first year undergraduate students, where I held tutorials and review sessions for the Classical Mechanics and Electricity & Magnetism courses. Furthermore, I have tutored independently several students in a wide of variety of Math, Physics, and upper-year Engineering courses. I have as well worked with Varsity Tutors as an independent contractor tutor. You can view my teaching portfolio and read testimonials from previous students on my website: https://ammaraibrahim.github.io/teaching/. I have tutored high school math and physics, including IB’s and AP’s curriculum courses. Furthermore, I have tutored first year math courses such as Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Linear Algebra, and Probability & Statistics. I also have a considerable amount of expertise in tutoring advanced math courses such as Differential Equations, Calculus 3 (Vector Calculus and Multivariate Calculus), and Numerical (or Finite Element) Analysis. I am also very experienced in teaching Electrical Engineering courses ranging from second-year Electrical Circuits courses to upper-year Signal Processing and Electromagnetics courses.

Expert Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy, CASPER & MCAT Lecturer + Tutor - 10 years experience - Medical Resident
I am a junior medical resident with over 9 years of experience tutoring university courses and the MCAT. I scored in the 97th percentile for the Chem/Phys and 99th percentile for the Bio/Biochem sections of the MCAT (2017). I have also taught university exam prep and MCAT science lessons to in-person classes of over 150 students, as well as recorded over 1000 hours of 1-on-1 tutoring. Additionally, my work experience as a TA has taught me the ins and outs of how university exams are written, along with what students can expect from them. In chemistry and biology courses I can consistently predict the types of questions (and occasionally exact questions) that come up on exams. On top of my lecturing experience, I have also helped students to prepare for the MCAT exam. If you're writing the MCAT, I can work with you to design a study schedule, recommend high yield resources, as well as teach you an approach on how to tackle important MCAT questions/passages. In general, when tutoring I like to break down complex concepts into smaller steps using silly and efficient tricks. I've additionally completed a Master's in Neurosciences/Neuroanatomy and finished medical school in Canada. I have expertise tutoring the following tests/subjects ($120/hour): MCAT (Chem/Phys, CARS, Bio, Psych/Soc) Organic Chemistry (>3000 hours between tutoring + TA + class instruction) General Chemistry Biology (TA experience) Physics I also have expertise in Medicine, Musculoskeletal Anatomy, Neuroscience (Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Doctor) and offer sessions in Medicine/NBME/Nursing/Physiotherapy/MSK Anatomy/Neuroanatomy/Pharmacy/CASPER exam for ***$50/hr (>50% REDUCED RATE) Scored in the top quartile on the CASPER examination (2022) Below are sample tutoring resources that I created to complement my lessons. Also, I have attached some of my student's MCAT scores before versus after our tutoring sessions! Reach out if you're interested in setting up a session! :)

Mariam E.
Queen's University
Chemical Engineering student by day, dedicated STEM tutor by night
Hi! My name is Mariam and I am an experienced tutor specializing in STEM subjects. I am currently studying Chemical Engineering at Queen's University and have been tutoring for 3 years. I have always had a strong passion for teaching and consider it a hobby more than a profession. During my time as a tutor, I have worked with a wide range of students, from elementary schoolers struggling with long division to university students looking to deepen their understanding of thermodynamics. I have been extremely lucky to have had incredible teachers and mentors throughout my education and through them I have adopted essential skills for a tutor such as adaptability and patience. My students appreciate my ability to break down challenging concepts into manageable pieces and ability to connect with them to create a comfortable learning environment where they feel supported and motivated to learn. I usually begin with a diagnostic session to assess the student's understanding and if they are missing prerequisite knowledge. Then, I create a structured lesson plan and session timeline based on the student's strengths and weaknesses. I strive to create a comfortable and engaging learning environment where students feel free to ask questions and explore new ideas. I also provide plenty of practice problems and feedback to help students improve their skills and gain confidence in their abilities. Above all, I believe in empowering students to become independent learners who can tackle new challenges with confidence. I work to instill a love of learning in my students and encourage them to take ownership of their education.
