Christian

Hello! My name is Christian, and I am entering my second year of the Honours Neuroscience program at the University of Alberta in the fall of 2019. I am a passionate and enthusiastic student who places a great emphasis on the foundations for success and uses this to get the most out of myself. Throughout high school, I achieved 95% or better in every course that I took, including the 10, 20 and 30 levels of English, Social and Math, and the 20 and 30 levels of Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I believe that this level of success is attainable for anyone with the right attitude and tools, and I would love to show you how. My interests include playing badminton, tennis and ping pong, and hanging out with the six cats and two dogs at my house.

I am a personable and friendly tutor who gets to know students and lays an attainable plan for success based on their goals. I emphasize a deeper understanding of material, specific practise in areas of difficulty with feedback for improvement, and lastly, a comprehensive look at the course to ensure confidence on tests. Having received 100% on the written components of the English 30 and Social Studies 30 diplomas, and a 5 on the Advanced Placement English exam, I am also very comfortable teaching improved writing skills. Whether you are in elementary, junior high, or high school, I would love to tutor you by planning and executing meaningful lesson plans that both suit your needs, and allow you to discover the version of success that you envision for yourself.

Availability: My preference is to meet on Saturdays or Sundays, but based on need I can meet during the week as well.

Willing to travel: 30 miles

Experience: I have been tutoring since 2015, which has seen me teach English, Math, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Social Studies and French to peers in high school. I have also helped my younger siblings with schoolwork for years. If chosen, I would love to share the study methods, time allocation and keys for success that have allowed me to obtain my marks. As a student, I have found both academic success and personal fulfillment in my studies and seek to translate these as a tutor.
