About Arbaaz
I’m Arbaaz Syed, a Senior Consultant in Accounting Advisory at KPMG Canada. I’ve spent the past four years at KPMG, starting in audit with funds, insurance, and real estate clients before moving into advisory, where I work on complex accounting and financial reporting questions.
I’m based in Montreal and tutor university students in accounting and finance in my spare time. I enjoy teaching because I’ve seen firsthand that accounting becomes much easier once you understand the reasoning behind the rules rather than simply memorizing them.
My approach is simple: the why before the how. I want you to leave each session not only knowing how to solve a problem, but understanding why the solution makes sense.

I’m starting to tutor because of something I’ve noticed again and again: students who can handle the work but can’t quite see why the accounting works the way it does — and that gap is almost always fixable.
I tutor university students in accounting and finance, with a particular focus on McGill University and Concordia University’s John Molson School of Business.
McGill University:
• MGCR 211 — Introduction to Financial Accounting
• MGCR 341 — Introduction to Finance
• ACCT 351 — Intermediate Financial Accounting 1
• ACCT 352 — Intermediate Financial Accounting 2
• ACCT 361 — Management Accounting
• ACCT 362 — Cost Accounting
• ACCT 354 — Financial Statement Analysis
• ACCT 453 — Advanced Financial Accounting
• ACCT 475 — Principles of Auditing
Concordia University / John Molson:
• COMM 217 — Financial Accounting
• COMM 305 — Managerial Accounting
• COMM 308 / COMM 309 — Introduction to Finance / Business Finance
• ACCO 310 — Financial Reporting I
• ACCO 320 — Financial Reporting II
• ACCO 330 — Cost and Management Accounting
• ACCO 360 — Principles of Auditing
• ACCO 420 — Financial Reporting III
• ACCO 465 — Advanced Assurance Services
Whether you’re struggling with debits and credits, journal entries, financial statements, revenue recognition, leases, consolidations, financial instruments, cost accounting, auditing, or financial reporting, I can walk you through the material step by step and connect it to how accounting actually works in practice.
My approach is straightforward: we start from what you already know, work through practice problems together, and I explain each concept in plain language — the why before the how. I use real examples of how these topics appear in financial statements and business decisions, because accounting makes a lot more sense when you can see what it’s actually describing.
I especially enjoy working with international students. If you study in English and find the textbook language or accounting terminology harder than the concepts themselves, that’s completely normal. We’ll slow things down, translate the terminology into plain English, and make sure you understand the underlying concept rather than simply memorizing a formula or procedure.
One thing I take seriously: I help you understand the material and prepare properly for exams. I don’t complete graded assignments or coursework for students.
Sessions are available online, and I can also meet in person in the Montreal area.
If you’re taking one of these courses, send me a message with your course code, upcoming exam/assignment, and the topics you’re struggling with. We can start there and see whether I’m the right fit for you.
