Our Courses
Math Tutoring in Vancouver
Math is loved by few and dreaded by many, and it is also needed by all. It is a key part of any high school or elementary curriculum, and is vital for success. We believe that Math does not need to be a source of panic or despair. The reason it often is regarded as such, is because of less-than-adequate support in earlier learning years. This has a cascading effect that makes it harder to progress in later years. Our approach? Start from the fundamentals, and help students to develop problem-solving skills, rather than just memorizing formulae and methods. When you teach in this way, we’ve found that students not only progress faster, but actually learn to love Math instead of fear it! Our tutors make the complex simple, bringing questions back down to earth and breaking them into solvable pieces. They also keep students interested by making the questions relatable, using real-life situations and using real-life objects. Last but not least, this process is fast, compressing 3-4 years of study into just 12 months! Using this approach, we had a Grade 7 student successfully complete Pre-Calculus 12!

We design our elementary and high school physics lectures to be in line with the up-to-date BC Math curriculum, and ensure that our tutors are fully-versed in the required materials and concepts, spanning all grades. We strive to add a dash of fun to every class, by using live apparatus to demonstrate what we are teaching, increasing engagement.

Our teachers are uniquely able to deliver this mode of teaching, thanks to this perspective. Our materials are wide-ranging, and our presentation methods are sophisticated while being easy to comprehend.
