Ontario Science Tutor
Don’t let our name fool you! At the Math Guru, our goal is to empower students to realize that they can achieve anything they put their minds to — and that isn’t limited to math! We want to see more diversity across all STEM fields, and that starts by breaking down the stereotypes of who a science, technology, engineering, or math person even is!
We believe that with expert training, empathetic guidance, and one-on-one mentoring, our students can feel like anything is possible — even science!
Here are a few reasons you’ll love our tutoring style:
1. Fully Customized
We focus on the whole student. Tutors don't simply teach science in a vacuum — they adapt lessons to the student’s unique learning styles! By offering a highly-customized experience that meets students’ individual needs and pace, we make the subject matter easier to grasp!
We know from personal experience how transformational science tutoring can be. That’s why we offer a rich and positive learning experience that goes far beyond the Ontario curriculum and stays with students for a lifetime!
2. Builds Confidence
We focus on building confidence and self-esteem as the key to unlocking science potential. By enabling students to feel the payoff of hard work and accountability, we show them that their limiting beliefs can be smashed!
The extra boost in confidence when they realize that they CAN do science translates to ALL areas of life. Instead of feeling defeated, they’ll face challenges head on with self-assurance knowing that, if they overcame their limiting beliefs around science, they can continue to tackle difficulties in all areas of life with grit and resilience!
3. Relieves Anxiety
We understand anxiety. Whether triggered by a teacher, social pressures, an upcoming test, or the demands of virtual learning, we know how detrimental it can be! Learning how to handle — and even thrive — in anxiety-inducing situations is one the most important skills to build today. Resilience in the face of a challenge is a skill that is transferable to all other areas in life, and we’ve got you covered!
Our science tutors are equipped with an understanding of mental health and tutor from a growth mindset perspective. By putting a positive twist on “failures'' and nurturing the belief that every mistake provides a learning opportunity, we help students feel supported so they can step into their fearless selves — and it all starts with science!
4. Fun and Engaging
(for real!)
We are ALL about blending curriculum content with skills that last a lifetime! Our tutors are fun, upbeat, and SO relatable. This helps to make science something students will ACTUALLY look forward to!
By making a point to hire diverse tutors of different backgrounds, we show students that there is no such thing as a "science person". Our tutors have a wide range of personalities and interests, and we are determined to help you find your tutor-soulmate. Anyone can excel when given the right tools, mindset, and a personalized approach to learning. Yes, even YOU!
Oh, and we hate when tutoring websites don’t list their pricing, so we want to make sure you know that our hourly tutoring rate is $85/hour! :)
