Ali S.
Private tutor in Montréal, Canada
Education
I graduated from McGill University with a degree in Chemical Engineering. I am also a Certified Management Accountant Candidate.
Experience
I have tutored Ordinary and Advanced Level Accounting (High-School British System) to two groups of students (at least 10 students in each group) and I managed to help over half of them achieve A's in their final examinations. As an accounting tutor, I enjoy showing and helping students to understand that everything in life, whether 'assets/liabilities' or even if they are intangible, still has a monetary value and should be recorded somewhere. Also, my main strategy when teaching accounting is to spend a bit more time making sure that my students fully grasp the double entry concept as I believe that not understanding this is the main root of the problems that arise later on in any accounting course. As a native Arabic speaker from Egypt and someone who has mastered all of my Arabic 'as a first language' courses throughout my school years until high school, I think that I know enough Arabic to teach others who are still in the process of learning the language or willing to start the language. Also as a resident of Canada for 5 years, I can relate to non-Arabic speakers to make it easier for them to understand the grammar concepts where most problems show up while learning the language. As a math tutor, I have a concrete understanding of how numbers and variables flow within equations and how to show that with daily real-life examples to make it much easier for the student to understand the concept and tricks to be able to solve any math question. I also worked as a Teaching Assistant for a Microeconomics class last year after acing both my midterm and final examinations. Grading exams for a class of over 130 students and assisting them with understanding their mistakes and giving weekly tutorials have allowed me to develop great teaching skills and techniques that differ depending on how the student's brain functions.
