Lina: Waterloo tutor

Certified Tutor

I am pursuing a degree in engineering, which has given me a strong background across math, science, and problem-solving. As a student myself, I know how discouraging it can feel to be stuck on a concept, and that understanding shapes the way I approach tutoring. I focus on breaking down challenging material into clear, manageable steps while encouraging students to build confidence in their own abilities.

I have worked with students in different settings, helping peers, classmates, and younger students, and I always adapt my style to fit how each student learns best. Whether that means walking through detailed examples, encouraging active problem-solving, or connecting concepts to real-world situations, I aim to make learning approachable and engaging.

I tutor a wide range of subjects, including math, science, and languages (french, english), but my favorite part of tutoring is helping students develop problem-solving strategies they can apply across disciplines. I especially enjoy seeing that moment when a student realizes they can understand something that once felt overwhelming.
