AspenPrep

Ontario, AP & IB curriculums  /  Grades 9 to 12

One teacher. Every session. Since 2019.

I tutor Grades 9–12 math, Grades 9–10 science, and Grades 11–12 physics in groups of no more than 6, twice a week, at my home in Glen Abbey. Every student works on their own material at their own pace, and I spend our time on the fundamental that’s actually causing the trouble — not just this week’s homework.

What a session actually looks like

  1. Check in

    We start with how the last test went, what class is covering now, and where things feel shaky.

  2. Explain, then pressure-test

    I explain the concept — three different ways if that's what it takes — then hand over hard questions to see if it really landed.

  3. Name the repeated mistake

    Most lost marks trace back to the same few errors. We put those in plain sight until the student can catch them without me.

  4. Practise, and read the real book

    Problems pitched a notch past where the student is comfortable, and the habit of reading a proper textbook on the hard topics.

Between sessions, students message me when they’re stuck on homework or prepping for a test, and I send back a hint — or the full solution, when that’s what it takes to get past the block. Students can also send me their school assignments and tests for feedback, and I send back practice questions to work by hand and hand in. The work keeps going between sessions, and students get better at seeing where they stand. I don’t let a student give up on a concept before the understanding is real.

Low 70s → mid-90s, in two years

One student joined in Grade 9 sitting in the low 70s. Two years of steady work later — learning to spot his own repeated mistakes, practising between sessions, bringing me the problems he couldn’t crack — he’s in the mid-90s, and every university program is back on the table. That’s the part of this work I look forward to most.

“Amazing, insightful tutor. I wouldn’t have gotten to where I am now without their help.”

Where: in person, in small groups, at my home in Glen Abbey, Oakville, Ontario — not a commercial learning centre. Students who live further away can join remotely, and anyone can on a day when the drive or the weather is a problem.
