KAREL C. R.

Karel is a biologist and a Science and Math teacher. He was born in Havana, Cuba, where he studied at the University of Havana, Cuba’s top high center of studies. He graduated from Biology, later taking the courses for the Master’s Degree of Marine Ecology, becoming a researcher in Marine Biology, specialized on Fish Biology and Ecology. He has done research on coral reefs and other tropical marine ecosystems, mostly focused on fish communities and occasionally also assessing sharks for both Ecology and Fisheries. He’s done a lot of marine research on vessels, which includes many hours of SCUBA diving, performing fish community censuses. He has taught postgraduate courses about his specialty, and also contributed for High School and University teaching, back in Cuba, for both general Biology and for national courses on Environmental Education, including being one of the advisors for “Universidad para todos” (University for everyone) for the Cuban national TV. He started teaching in Ontario in 2019, where he has taught Math (Functions) for 11 and 12 grades, including Calculus for 12, as well as Chemistry for 11 and 12 and of course, Biology for both grades, that being his own field. He has also taught some optional courses, like Kinesiology for 12 grade. He loves diving, hiking and camping, and on his spare time he reads History and also sings regularly with the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir (mostly classical music), the one singing with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, something he finds to be very rewarding emotionally.

Christine F.

Christine is a certified math teacher with a Bachelor of Science degree in Math Education from Southeastern Louisiana University in 2005.   Christine’s journey into teaching was inspired by her own math teachers, who went above and beyond to help her succeed. Their willingness to offer extra help before and after school left a lasting impression on Christine, showing the power of patience and personalized support.  Christine Fontenot strives to bring that same dedication and compassion to her tutoring sessions.

As an energetic, down-to-earth educator, Christine enjoys connecting with students on their level and making math approachable.  Her creativity allows her to find engaging and unique ways to explain concepts, while her compassion ensures that every student feels supported and encouraged.   Christine believes that learning should be enjoyable and that every student has the potential to excel with the right guidance.

Ultimately, Christine Fontenot wants to be a math tutor to inspire students just as her former teachers inspired her–to show them that with effort, encouragement, and the right approach, they can achieve more than they imagined.

Marcus M.

Marcus has a Master’s degree in Physics from McGill University, and a Bachelor’s degree with Honours in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Victoria. Marcus has a wide variety of experience as a Teaching Assistant in 100 to 500 level Physics courses at McGill, and an extensive higher level Math education (including upper level Calculus and Linear Algebra). Through his research experience at McGill, Marcus also has a variety of computational skills, including extensive experience programming in Python. Marcus can offer advice on what an academic path in science might look like as a career, particularly in Physics and Astronomy.

With plans to obtain further credentials in the education sector, Marcus hopes to become a secondary school instructor. He believes that any concept can be understood when working to break complex ideas down into their fundamental building blocks. He has experience working with children aged 5-14 through STEM based Summer Camps, and has found there is nothing more gratifying than seeing someone come to understand a concept they were having difficulty with.

Chris L.

Growing up in Cardiff, Wales, Chris was drawn to the outdoors despite the city’s amenities. As a child, he joined outdoor clubs, cubs, scouts, and played various sports; fostering a love for new activities, challenges, and meeting people. This passion led him to the Sea to Sky region, where a temporary visa turned into a lifelong adventure. For Chris, the satisfaction of overcoming a challenging target, problem, skill, or puzzle has always been worth the effort, work, and occasional pain and frustration

While in university, Chris worked at a summer camp in North Carolina, where he helped campers grow physically, socially, and emotionally, sparking his interest in academic teaching. In 2013, he earned a BA in education from the University of the West of England, Bristol. Through this course, he was incredibly fortunate to have extensive placements in a range of settings, with a range of grades. Chris has worked in both traditional and non-traditional settings; in schools with everything imaginable and schools with almost nothing; and taught from the very youngest learners up to adults in their golden years.

Chris blends educational theory with his active outdoor background to create engaging, multidisciplinary learning experiences, emphasizing hands-on learning and understanding rather than doing. He strives to find creative ways to show that learning is real rather than a lesson in a room. Chris loves finding opportunities to get outside and do something, rather than learn about something. He encourages movement, noise and active participation. Critically and fundamentally, Chris believes in teaching a person at their own individual level and to their own individual needs, encouraging everyone to take ownership of their learning and to support them in overcoming challenges to aid understanding and ability.

Making mistakes and finding things hard is the first step to learning something. If it was easy, were we learning, or just completing tasks?
