Tanya Y.

Tanya holds an Honours Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Wilfrid Laurier University and has over four years of experience tutoring and teaching students from Grades 1–12. She has taught mathematics, science, English, French, and computer science and has experience working with students with a wide range of learning styles and academic needs.

Tanya’s tutoring style is creative, interactive, and highly personalized. She believes students learn best when they are actively involved, so her sessions often go beyond traditional worksheets. She enjoys turning concepts into games, challenges, discussions, real-world examples, and hands-on activities that make learning feel more approachable and memorable. She also takes the time to understand each student’s personality, interests, and learning style so that no two sessions feel exactly the same.

Most importantly, Tanya wants her students to feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and developing confidence in their own abilities. She aims to help students understand not only how to solve a problem, but why their approach works.

Outside of tutoring, Tanya enjoys listening to music, spending time with pets, watching movies, and exploring technology. She loves finding opportunities to bring students’ interests into her lessons and make learning something they can genuinely enjoy.

Karan S.

Karan Sukhija is a practicing Software Engineer and experienced STEM educator with more than seven years of teaching and tutoring experience. He holds a Master of Applied Computer Science from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and currently works as a Software Engineer, where he designs cloud-based solutions using AWS and Salesforce while also mentoring junior developers.

Over the years, Karan has taught more than 100 students across Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and India in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, coding, and 3D design, supporting learners from Grade 6 through early university. His teaching experience includes AP, Pre-AP, and IB-level coursework, as well as preparation for mathematics and programming competitions organized by the University of Waterloo and the Canadian Mathematical Society, along with Singapore Math enrichment. His students have achieved strong results in advanced courses and examinations, including scores of 4/5 in AP Physics and 5/5 in AP Precalculus.

Karan believes that effective tutoring begins with understanding how each student learns best. He adapts the pace, explanations, examples, and level of practice to each learner’s strengths, challenges, and academic goals rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. During the first few sessions, Karan focuses on assessing the student’s current understanding, identifying learning gaps, and establishing clear goals with the student and family.

From there, he develops a structured and personalized learning plan supported by worksheets, practice problems, and progressively challenging material that he has developed and gathered throughout his teaching career. His professional engineering background also enables him to connect academic concepts with practical, real-world applications, helping students understand not only how to solve a problem, but also why the concepts matter.

Karan has called Canada home since 2018 and takes great pride in contributing to the education and development of students in his community. Outside of teaching and engineering, he enjoys playing tennis, working out, and practicing yoga.
