About Joshua
I've been tutoring math and science since I was 16 and hold an Honors BSc in Biology from Concordia University.
Over the years, I've worked with students at different levels, but I particularly enjoy helping CEGEP and university students with courses like calculus, physics and chemistry.
My teaching style is highly conversational. I ask a lot of questions, use analogies and diagrams, and try to understand how the student is thinking rather than simply showing them a solution and moving on.
I'm especially useful for students who feel like they are capable of understanding the material but have fallen behind, accumulated gaps, or find that their professor's explanation isn't clicking.
Outside tutoring, my background includes biology, entrepreneurship and B2B sales. Those experiences have made me comfortable explaining complicated ideas clearly and adapting how I communicate depending on the person in front of me.
I also played competitive hockey growing up and play music, so I tend to approach learning the same way I approach any skill: understand the fundamentals, practice deliberately, identify weaknesses and improve them one at a time.
If you have an upcoming exam, are falling behind in a course, or simply want the material to finally make sense, send me a message with the course and topics you're working on.

I want to start by saying my lessons aren't what you would probably expect. In my experience, the best way to learn something is ACTUALLY to make it personally relevant. I often take a topic and make it specifically relevant to your interests (academic and otherwise) and to your field of study.
In this way, there's a real motivation that emerges, one that was not there prior.

Josh has been a lifesaver for our children. He began tutoring our daughter and son while they were in high school and continued through their university courses. There was a dramatic shift in both grades, but more consequentially, their overall mindset. It was beautiful to witness.
