Sara D.
Carleton University, University of Ottawa
Ontario Certified Teacher - English Conversation & Academic/Persuasive Writing
My teaching style is strategy-based. I work with students to help them become more confident, articulate, and specific in their use of language. I do NOT waste time by giving out worksheets and rote homework that won’t help you improve— during our sessions, you will receive 100% of my full collaboration and undivided attention. ******* About me: I am the proud daughter of life-long entrepreneurs with a passion for communication, storytelling, and bringing ideas to life. I like to scaffold concepts to communicate effectively, and I exude strong ambassadorship, adaptive thinking, and a results-driven approach to communication. I have worked with large-scale brands and have been published across several platforms, including SSENSE.com, Reedsy.com, the Seattle NFT Museum, and FELA tv. ******* How I Work: English is my teachable subject and passion! I focus on critical thinking/application, persuasive writing, close reading, debate, and advertising. I am qualified to support English students in the intermediate and senior category, including college, university, and professionals. *Writing Sample Requirement* If you are looking for support in creative writing, essay writing, reader response, English 1/2/3/4 U/C, or post-secondary studies, you must share a writing sample with me before our session start-time. My preference is to receive samples at least 12 hours in advance. If that’s not possible, get in touch with me to see if we can make something work. Samples include reader response, persuasive paragraph, full essay, fiction excerpt, blog post, and any other creative or professional piece that you are currently writing or have written in the past. It can be an outline, a complete first draft, or a piece that has already been evaluated. Samples are essential because they introduce me to your writing style, and a 12-hour advance gives me enough time to narrow down specific areas of focus.

Michael A.
Queen's University, University of Saskatchewan, University of Saskatchewan, University of Ottawa
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 and finished medical school in Canada. I have expertise tutoring the following tests/subjects: MCAT (Chem/Phys, CARS, Bio, Psych/Soc) Organic Chemistry (>3000 hours between tutoring + TA + class instruction) Musculoskeletal Anatomy, Neuroscience (Physiatry resident) General Chemistry Biology (TA experience) Physics *$50/hr - REDUCED RATE for the following subjects: Medicine/NBME/Nursing/Physiotherapy/MSK Anatomy/Neuroanatomy/Pharmacy/CASPER exam* 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! :)

I Make Maths/Economics Fun To Learn (Grade 1 - 12)/ University Student
I am a recent finance graduate from the University of Ottawa. Since high school, I have had a keen interest in courses such as business studies, economics (Micro & Macro), international management, maths, pre-calculus, etc. These are some of the subjects in which I believe if a person actually understands what he's doing will eventually start enjoying it. In fact, during my first year, I took two math, economics, and management courses and got an A+ in all of them.
