About Paul
With several years of math tutoring experience since the start of my undergrad, my passion and enthusiasm for teaching is the driving force of my lessons. I love to share my joy for the subject with you, the student, and figure out the best ways to break down and explain its abstract ideas in a concrete, understandable fashion. That itself is an interesting puzzle, as each individual is unique, and thus finding the approach that makes the ideas finally click is great fun for me.

A lesson typically involves first figuring out what you already understand and where your challenges lie. Since math builds on itself, a strong emphasis on the fundamentals is given, where together you and I will focus one by one on the difficulties of core material, taking as much time as needed. I focus on building intuition, clearer understanding, and knowledge of multiple examples so that you can learn how to effectively learn even more math on your own with the right tools, tricks, and techniques.
My method of teaching applies to all levels of math and for all ages.

Perfect! Paul explained concepts really well, and he's really a good tutor because unlike most he actually makes you work to get the information by giving you just enough information when working through a concept so you have to think and figure out the rest yourself, which is way better than just getting the answers. Also great at explaining innovative things that might be a bit tangential to the curriculum but also help with understanding key concepts. strongly recommend for any math course. the rates are definitely worth it and he reaches out too. all in all excellent tutor

If you're looking for an exceptional math tutor, I highly recommend Paul. My daughter needed help with her Grade 11 math course, where unfortunately her teacher relied on YouTube videos instead of actual instruction.
From the very first session, we were impressed with Paul. He was very patient. He explained difficult concepts in a way that made sense, and if my daughter didn’t understand something right away, he was happy to try a different approach. It was clear that he genuinely cared about her progress and never made her feel embarrassed for asking questions — something that really helped rebuild her confidence.
What really sets Paul apart is his passion for math and teaching. His enthusiasm is infectious, and it created an encouraging learning environment where my daughter felt supported.
Paul is also an expert across all areas of math. He always had a deep understanding of the topic and knew exactly how to explain it. His ability to break things down step-by-step was incredibly effective.
In short, Paul is a fantastic tutor who goes above and beyond. He’s knowledgeable, kind, and truly passionate about what he does. Thanks to him, my daughter’s understanding and performance in math improved significantly. We’re so grateful to have found him!Paul is an excellent tutor who explains concepts very clearly and effectively. I learned both Linear Algebra 1 and Calculus 2 with him, and his teaching style made a huge difference in my understanding of the material. He goes in-depth with each topic and ensures that I fully grasp the concepts before moving on.
I think Paul really knows math material and comes prepared with each tutoring session. I really liked the tricks that he was able to teach me for Calculus 2.
Paul is a friend of mine and also was my TA for an undergraduate level math class at McGill University. What's different about Paul compared to other teachers and tutors I have had is his passion. Paul told me once that his two passions in life are math and teaching. If you spend any amount of time with him you will easily see that he is equally invested in both.
Paul's deep knowledge of math comes in handy when he helps you not only find an answer, but also understand why the answer is correct, and how to repeat it. I found his style of teaching to be useful in a wide variety of mathematics, anywhere from calculus, linear algebra, proofs, or anything else you might need.
I still remember one time where I was stressed the night before an exam and Paul sat down on the floor with me and wrote on a mini whiteboard and explained every single thing that I needed help with. I also remember how engaged he was in office hours compared to other TAs. I remember that his sessions would be way busier because everyone respected his style of teaching.
If you need help with math, you couldn't be in better hands than Paul's!Having personally known Paul for over a decade, I can attest to his positive attitude and great teaching skills. As a former classmate, I have seen firsthand how effectively he explains complex math concepts with clarity and patience. His empathy and ability to adapt to different learning styles make him an outstanding tutor.
Paul's dedication to helping others succeed, combined with his deep understanding of mathematics, ensures that his students receive the best possible guidance. I am confident that he will be a valuable addition to the Superprof community and wholeheartedly recommend him for the role of math tutor.I highly recommend Paul as a math tutor on Superprof. We were classmates, and his tutoring played a crucial role in helping me understand and excel in our math courses.
He is exceptionally smart and empathetic, always adapting his teaching methods to fit the needs of his students. His clear explanations and patience make complex topics accessible and understandable. His passion for math is contagious, while his passion for teaching and dedication to helping others make him an exceptionally strong and motivated tutor.
His supportive and encouraging attitude creates a positive learning environment. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul as a math tutor for anyone looking to improve their understanding and skills in the subject.See more recommendations
