I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Certified Tutor

Hi! My name is Lisa, and I'm here to help students feel more confident and supported in their learning journey!

I'm from Vancouver, BC and am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science at Queen's University. I specialize in tutoring Math from Pre-K to Grade 10, English writing for middle school and high school students, and introductory Chemistry (Grade 10 and 11 level). Whether it's breaking down math problems step-by-step, organizing and editing an essay, or simplifying basic chemistry concepts, my goal is to focus on creating a learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace!

My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and personalized. I believe every student learns differently, so I will take the time to understand how each student thinks and tailor my approach to fit what you need. In our sessions, I prioritize clear explanations, active participation, and consistent feedback to help students build not just knowledge but also confidence!

Whether your goal is to boost grades, prepare for a test, or just understand the material better, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Let's work together!

Hobbies

When I’m not tutoring, I love staying active and spending time outdoors. I enjoy skiing in the winter, playing soccer, hitting the gym, and relaxing at the beach whenever I can. These hobbies help me stay sane when in school, and I hope to bring that same positivity and motivation into my tutoring sessions!
