Cole L.

The inner mechanisms of things intrigued Cole, which set his love for math and science in motion. This passion led him to pursue and attain a Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering at UBCO in 2019. Though his academic background is technical in nature, Cole’s interests are certainly not at an end there. He proudly claims to be a nerd who spends his free time playing Dungeons and Dragons and video games. He is also an avid movie-watcher, especially Marvel, and enjoys watching anime.

Helping others means the world to Cole because he understands from experience how tough a concept can be to grasp, and a little direction can go a long way. With him, every tutoring session is filled with his passion for learning-from working through problematic math problems to explaining scientific concepts in a manner easily understood. He enjoys the close interaction with the students, getting to know them on a personal basis and understanding their individual style of learning in order to make sure they are well taken care of.

He wants them not only to become academically excellent but also to develop a love for the process of learning, as he has.
