Private tutor in Montréal, Canada
Education
I completed my DEC in sciences at John abbot college in 2012. I graduated from McGill University with a bachelor of science in pharmacology in May 2015 with the dean's convocation prize. I then completed my MDCM (medical) degree at McGill University in June 2019 and completed my residency in family medicine in August 2022 at Sherbrooke University.
Experience
I love science! I have been tutoring students of all ages for over 12 years mainly in math, science and medicine. There really is nothing as special as helping other people discover their potential. I also have experience working with children suffering from learning disabilities. I have the patience to explain the same concept multiple times using many different examples and concepts as long as the student is willing to put in the effort and wants to learn! I tutored one of my students for five years after she had failed her first year of high school. My help and her incredible hard work resulted in her graduating with her class and being accepted into John Abbott College. If you or your child needs help in elementary school, high school math or science, cegep level chemistry, biology and physics and university level courses in science and medicine I can help. I look forward to meeting all my future clients. During my time at McGill, I consistently achieved the dean’s list and was awarded first class honours and the dean’s convocation prize upon graduating, the Emily Ross Crawford scholarship and the overall achievement award for pharmacology. I love tutoring because nothing makes me happier than the satisfaction a student experiences when they finally understand a concept which has been troubling them. I truly love working with students and teaching.

Hobbies
What do I enjoy doing in my free time? I love to keep active: swimming, biking, running, kayaking, hiking, rock climbing... I have been training for and competing in triathlons for the past 5 years. I also enjoy reading a good book, I am never without one! I really enjoy cooking and baking and I can be quite creative. I published a cookbook during my final year of high school with authentic recipes from Europe and Asia. Each recipe had a large photo as well as a brief history. On nice days I like spending time outdoors with friends and family.
