ROBERT P.
Robert P. is a current university student studying Biochemistry. He enjoys the academically challenging nature of his STEM major and is confident that he will be able to instill the knowledge and skills any student may need in their current and further academic journey. Robert had found his passion for tutoring while in his final year of high school, realizing that his deep understanding of concepts and explanations provided a great aid to his fellow Grade 12 classmates. He went on to form the “Peer Tutor” Club in which guidance counselors and students alike would regularly ask for his strengths in Data Management, Mathematics and Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, receiving awards and scholarships of appreciation during his graduation.
