Madison J.
Madison J. is a certified teacher in Life Sciences and ELL. She has been teaching for 10 years. While studying Neuroscience at Vassar College, she discovered a love of teaching as a chemistry teaching assistant. After graduating, she went on to earn a Master’s in teaching through a fellowship with the Institute for Citizens and Scholars. She has taught Biology, Zoology, and Environmental Science at the high school level, as well as science and math at the middle school level. Her true passion is in helping all students not only succeed, but to discover a love of learning and the joy that comes from exploring the world. Outside of the classroom, she is mom to an energetic son and a grumpy tortoise. She loves to knit, sew, and hike.
Cherisse L.
Cherisse is a warm, friendly and adaptable educator who believes in meeting students exactly where they are. She understands that every child learns and sees the world in their own unique way, and she is committed to creating a space where students feel supported, heard, and encouraged to grow. Cherisse sees teaching as a two-way experience — one where she learns just as much from her students as they do from her. She graduated from the University of Birmingham with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Science and has since developed a deep passion for working with young learners. Her journey into education began in Canada, where she discovered her love for teaching while working as a ski instructor at Silver Star Mountain. Cherisse is passionate about helping students grow in confidence by connecting learning to their natural curiosity and personal interests. In her spare time, Cherisse enjoys hiking, reading, playing tennis, and spending time with friends and family.
Ben H.
Benjamin Hughes, PHD is an instructor of Biomedical Sciences at NYU. Benjamin’s long history of research experience includes signal transduction and mechanisms of receptor activation. As a researcher at Case Western Reserve University, he was involved in many studies regarding mechanisms of progressive kidney diseases and renal regulation/involvement of systemic hypertension.
Zachary M.
Zachary M. is presently in his last year of his study for his dual masters in math and physics at UTSA. Some may say that in doing so, he is trying to prolong his adolescence and avoid adulthood. But truth be told, Zach is very passionate about his studies. This was not always the case. Admittedly, Zach was mathematically challenged in middle school (his mom would help him with his algebra homework). But something clicked for him in high school. He took every AP math and science class that he could and went so far as to participate in academic UIL. After graduation from high school, Zach began studying math and physics at UTSA. He took up a job as a physics tutor on a whim but came to discover that he really enjoys helping people learn. Now as a graduate student, Zach teaches introductory physics labs. In doing so, he does his best to accommodate all of his students while simultaneously emphasizing the mathematical and theoretical underpinnings of physics.
JOSIN J.
Josin is a passionate Physics and Math educator, experimental physicist, and enthusiastic supporter of string theory. With over five years of teaching experience across Ontario and internationally, he has taught high school and AP-level courses including SPH3U, SPH4U, and MCR3U. Josin is known for his innovative, real-world approach that transforms the learning of physics and mathematics from rote formulas into deep, intuitive understanding.
Holding a Master’s in Materials Physics from Brock University with a research focus in advanced experimental condensed matter physics, Josin combines scientific rigor with creativity in the classroom. He integrates hands-on experiments, AI-powered tools, and philosophical insights to make lessons not only accessible but truly transformative. His teaching philosophy emphasizes that math and physics aren’t just subjects—they’re a way of thinking, a way of life.
Inspired by the elegance of theoretical frameworks like string theory and grounded in practical experimentation, Josin empowers students to connect the abstract with the tangible, nurturing curiosity, critical thinking, and lifelong learning.
Isabel E.
Isabel is a dedicated and dynamic tutor with a strong academic foundation and a passion for helping students to thrive. She holds an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences from Queen’s University, where she completed an interdisciplinary and bilingual program based in both the sciences and the humanities. As such, Isabel was able to build wide-ranging knowledge across multiple subjects, fostering an inter-connected academic skillset. In addition to her academic success, Isabel has completed tutoring training and gained extensive experience through one-on-one instruction. Isabel has years of experience tutoring students of various ages and learning styles. She has worked with students navigating ADHD, dyslexia, and academic setbacks related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Isabel introduces a personalized teaching style unique to every student, allowed her to foster both academic growth and confidence in each learner. Her energetic and engaged teaching style helps students not only to improve their grades, but to become more independent and engaged in their education. Isabel also values clear communication with students, families, and teachers to help track progress and align on goals. She always prioritizes connection, curiosity, and strong study habits in her students. Isabel seeks to foster a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.
Hannah M.
Hannah has a Bachelor of Applied Science in Engineering Science as well as a Master of Applied Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering. She is currently working on a PhD in Civil Engineering at the University of Toronto. She has tutored grade 9-12 math since 2023 (including in French, thanks to her school years in the French Baccalaureate) and has experience teaching robotics (in addition to helping students prepare for FIRST), physics, chemistry, English and French. She has also worked as a Teaching Assistant for a variety of engineering courses at the University of Toronto.
Having lived in a variety of countries in her youth (Ghana, Syria, Peru, South Korea), Hannah appreciates the very different ways that the same concept can be understood. As such, her approach to teaching is student-focused, leaning on the unique way that each child conceives of the world. She is particularly passionate about the multiplicity of approaches one can take in math to arrive at the same solution!
