Tom B.

The joy and challenge of mathematics has always been a large part of Tom’s life, from participating in maths olympiads and running revision classes at school to his masters’ degree at Warwick University and beyond to ‘recreational’ reading on infinity, statistics or symmetry. He finds the purity of the subject, the neatness and objectivity, fascinating, and brings his enthusiasm and deep understanding to his teaching.

Since teaching roles at University, Tom has been accepting students for tuition both online and in person, and ten years after graduating he has coached dozens of students through their studies and exams at a high level. With a focus on high school math and beyond, Tom brings an understanding of calculus and algebra which allows him to provide students operating at the upper end of their school careers with insights and context they will not find on the regular curriculum, and does so in a friendly and informal manner.

Outside of mathematics, Tom is a keen outdoorsman and can often be found attached to a rope and up a cliff or running on the many trails in the sea to sky corridor (all of which seem to be uphill). He enjoys creative writing, loud music and runs a dungeons and dragons game for friends in Squamish and Whistler.

Sabrina D. B.

Sabrina is beginning her 23rd year as an elementary school educator for the Dufferin Peel Catholic District School Board. She developed a passion for children from a very young age and knew she wanted to pursue a career in education, leading her to begin volunteering in daycares, schools, and babysitting in her early teen years. Sabrina received a double major degree in French and Italian Language and Linguistics from the University of Toronto and subsequently went into the Faculty of Education at York University. She began teaching right after graduation and embarked upon a versatile professional journey with students of all ages. The majority of her experience is in the elementary classroom in the junior and intermediate divisions, however she is also specialized in early reading strategies and has helped several children bridge the gaps in their literacy skills in the primary grades, summer school sessions, and private tutoring. Additionally, Sabrina acted as an instructional coach for her school board to mentor teachers in their daily teaching practices, with an emphasis on numeracy, literacy, inquiry and technology. Sabrina also has French, Italian, and Religion as teachables for high school, which led her to take on a position for modern languages on Saturdays with Grade 11-12 students. Although this was an enriching experience, her passion remains with guiding younger children along their personal learning endeavors. In her spare time, Sabrina is an advocate for wellness and mental well-being. She embeds this philosophy within her classroom to create a comfortable and safe learning space for her students by incorporating daily mindfulness activities to coach them on how to manage stress and their emotions. Sabrina makes her own well-being a priority by remaining active on a daily basis – through nature hikes, yoga practice, and strength training – and practicing her own mindfulness techniques through prayer, reading, and journaling.
