My name is Taso, and I am a 4th-year PhD student at the Institute of Medical Science. I am studying the molecular processes involved in treatment-resistant depression. I’ve taken on several mentorship and teaching positions in the past eight years. These include being an orientation leader at Western University, a senior science tutor at Scholars Education, and a teaching assistant at the University of Toronto.
Marilena is in the first year of her master's degree. She is a President’s Scholar of Excellence, awarded to the university’s 90 highest-achieving students. Marilena has extensive experience in subjects, including, but not limited to, math, biology, physics, chemistry, English and Greek language studies. She has extensive experience tutoring students, adapting to their various needs and backgrounds (i.e. giftedness, ADHD, etc.) while using active learning approaches. She aspires to pursue an MSc in Global Health and further education in health policy and medicine. In her free time, she walks her cockapoo, Max, loves to read, and travels to new places!
Our tutors are current graduate students in STEM fields. This allows for expert knowledge translation from the laboratory into their student's lessons. This makes them qualified to provide support in Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology.
A systematic review published in the Journal of College Reading and Learning found that tutoring provides tremendous improvements in retention, persistence and grade performance.
Not all students are the same! Some require support in topics that others thrive in. We provide individualized lesson plans that are tailored to the needs of our students.
We match high school students with graduate students to provide high-quality tutoring and mentorship services. Contact us now to get started!
