Derek B.

Private tutor in Ottawa, Canada

Education

Masters in Mathematics, McGill University (Montréal) Bachelors in Mathematics, Concordia University (Montréal)

Experience

- 5 years as a French, English and Mathematics tutor, Oxford Learning Center (Ottawa, Montréal): college, high school, and grade school students. - 2 years as a Teaching Assistant (5 appointments), McGill University (Montréal): Differential and Integral Calculus, Ordinary Differential Equations. - 1 year as a French Teacher for Katimavik, a National youth volunteer service program (Ottawa). Personal aptitudes that make me a good tutor: -Patience -Flexibility for trying various approaches to communicate knowledge to the student -Autonomizing the student by adopting an approach centered on active learning on their part, rather than just my own talking and having the highly illusory hope that the student will magically learn through osmosis.
