Mahdi A.

Not every bio starts with a name, and not every tutor teaches in the same way. Mahdi values genuineness, creativity, and a love of learning. Growing up in a family of educators, he developed an early appreciation for teaching while supporting his younger brother and friends with their studies. Mahdi completed his Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering before moving to Canada, where he earned his Master’s degree in the same field. Throughout university, he discovered the joy of teaching in both one-on-one and group settings. Mahdi has a special passion for Mathematics, followed by Physics and Chemistry, though his curiosity extends to all areas of knowledge and science. In his tutoring, Mahdi focuses not on giving students the correct answers, but on teaching them how to understand questions, connect them to prior knowledge, determine where to begin solving, and verify each step along the way. He believes every student has a distinctive mind, a unique goal, and their own path to discovery. Outside of academics, Mahdi values balancing work and leisure. He enjoys exploring British Columbia through camping, skiing, hiking, and paddle boarding.

Clément B.

Clément poursuit actuellement une maîtrise en Génie de la production automatisée à l’École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS) de Montréal. Il est diplômé de l’École des Mines d’Alès, en France, où il s’est spécialisé en Performance Industrielle et Systèmes Mécatroniques. Titulaire d’un baccalauréat scientifique (spécialité mathématiques et physique-chimie), il a également suivi deux années de classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles (filière PCSI/PC), où il a développé une solide rigueur scientifique et une méthode de travail efficace.

Fort de plus de trois ans d’expérience dans l’enseignement, Clément a accompagné de nombreux élèves de niveaux variés, les aidant à surmonter leurs difficultés, à reprendre confiance et à progresser durablement. Sa pédagogie repose sur la clarté, la structure et l’adaptation à chaque profil.

Ses cours suivent une structure claire et flexible :
• Reprise du cours avec des explications personnalisées
• Exercices progressifs pour consolider la compréhension et les réflexes
• Entraînement sur des sujets types examens (secondaire, collégial, concours…) pour gagner en autonomie et en efficacité

Des exercices ciblés sont proposés entre les séances et corrigés ensemble pour assurer un suivi régulier. Passionné par les sciences et la transmission du savoir, Clément cherche avant tout à rendre les mathématiques – et la physique si nécessaire – accessibles, claires et plaisantes pour tous.

Dr. Halley W.

Dr. Halley W. is a research biochemist with over a decade of experience teaching and tutoring STEM in one-on-one and classroom settings. One of her most unique experiences included teaching biology to a classroom of incarcerated individuals at a NJ state prison. She earned her PhD in center city Philadelphia at Thomas Jefferson University and conducted postdoctoral research at Princeton University before joining the Temple community to study spinal cord injury. Halley believes a well-rounded, multidisciplinary education, fosters creative, productive, compassionate, and successful human beings. When she’s not thinking about science, Halley enjoys crocheting and going to concerts.

Muskaan T.

Hi, I’m Muskaan, a graduate student in Bioengineering at Rice University with a strong interdisciplinary foundation in bioinformatics, biology, chemistry, and mathematics. With over five years of tutoring experience, I’ve had the opportunity to guide high school, undergraduate, and graduate students through subjects such as organic chemistry, biology, genetics, calculus, biostatistics etc. My teaching philosophy centers on turning complex topics into clear, engaging lessons that connect theory to real-world applications. Beyond tutoring, my professional experience spans both academic research and clinical practice from analyzing genetic risk factors for cardiovascular disease as a Graduate Researcher at UTHealth Houston, to assisting with pain management and pediatric clinics. These experiences have strengthened my ability to bridge scientific knowledge with practical understanding, which I strive to bring into every session. I’m passionate about helping students not only master challenging material but also build lasting confidence, curiosity, and a genuine appreciation for learning.

GALLEN Q.

Gallen is an Ontario Certified high school educator who brings a rigorous and practical approach to learning. With an Honours Science degree from the University of Waterloo and a Bachelor of Education from Nipissing University, he possesses a unique ability to bridge the gap between advanced theoretical concepts and their real-world applications. Nearing half a decade of tutoring experience, he has honed a proven track record of not only improving students’ grades but also fostering a genuine, lasting understanding and appreciation for Math and Science.

Gallen’s teaching philosophy is rooted in breaking down challenging material into logical, manageable steps, ensuring students build confidence alongside competence. He is a firm believer in developing analytical and problem solving skills as it is transferable across all domains. Proven beyond the classroom, the same principles are evidenced in his personal pursuits as an avid chess player and a Top 1% North American competitor in League of Legends’ Teamfight Tactics. For his students, this means learning with a master tactician who turns academic challenges into winnable situations.

MEHRDAD N.

Mehrdad has been teaching and tutoring students since the age of 18. His experience spans from grade 7 to university level students, with a focus on mathematics (all high-school subjects), coding (along with algorithms) and physics. He has been passionate about these subjects from an early age and actively participated in several related competitions during high school and university.

He holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science and has worked as a machine learning software engineer for over five years. Since teaching science has always been one of his favorite pursuits, he has recently shifted his focus from industry back to education and tutoring.

His teaching approach builds on each student’s existing understanding of the subject. He enjoys helping students explore why and how scientific methods are developed, engaging them in connecting the dots through a meaningful and enjoyable learning process.

In his free time, Mehrdad enjoys reading, playing soccer and table tennis, and spending time in nature and with friends.

ANEESA A.

Hi! I’m Aneesa. I’m an Ontario Certified Teacher with qualifications in Biology and General Science for Grades 7–12. I have experience teaching Science across Grades 7–12 in the classroom, as well as tutoring Math up to Grade 10 and Chemistry up to Grade 12.

Josh C.

Josh earned his Master’s in Science Education from Rutgers, where he also studied Physics with minors in Math and Education. Since 2010, he has been helping students through private tutoring, Rutgers programs, and various companies—spending nearly 10,000 hours working one-on-one with learners of all levels.

What Josh loves most about teaching is making tough subjects like Physics and Math feel less intimidating. He focuses on helping students really understand the concepts behind the equations, not just memorize steps. Connecting abstract equations to real-world examples is of paramount importance when making things click, and whenever possible, Josh has students explain the material back to him—it’s a great way to build confidence and deepen understanding. Seeing that growth in students is Josh teaches, and he would be excited to help you get there as well.

In his free time, Josh likes to annoy his cat and play strategy games of various types to keep his mind sharp. Eventually, his cat decides they need attention, and then Josh gets to have the extra difficulty of playing while maneuvering around a cat between his face and the screen. It’s a good life.
