Mina: Arcadia tutor
Certified Tutor
I am passionate about helping students reach their full potential by creating a supportive, inclusive, and engaging learning environment. With several years of experience, I have guided learners from diverse backgrounds through academic transitions, admissions processes, and skill development. Whether supporting international students with applications and study permits or coaching learners through coursework, I approach every student with patience, clarity, and encouragement.
I bring an interdisciplinary background that bridges social sciences and business. With a BA in Sociology (Honors) and a minor in Political Science, along with a Master's degree in Marketing, I understand both people and markets. My tutoring is tailored, practical, and results-oriented; blending academic rigor with real-world application. Whether preparing for exams, developing research skills, or tackling business and marketing projects, I help students achieve stronger performance and lasting confidence.
I also specialize in academic writing, organizational skills, and study strategies, which foster independence and long-term success. My tutoring style is collaborative and adaptive: I tailor lessons to each student's goals, break down complex ideas into clear steps, and create an interactive learning experience that sparks curiosity.

Degree: York University - Master's/Graduate, Marketing (MMKG)
Outside of work, I’m passionate about activities that spark creativity, clarity, and connection. Music has always been a big part of my life, and I enjoy curating playlists as soundtracks for different moods and moments. I also love baking and decorating spaces that feel intentional and soulful, often inspired by design, mood, and storytelling. To stay balanced, I run long distances, and play chess, which keeps me both grounded and sharp. I am also a certified spinning instructor, and while I don’t currently teach, the training deepened my skills in motivation, discipline, and guiding others through their goals. I recharge by writing, reflecting, and listening to thought-provoking podcasts that inspire new ideas. I’ve always believed in learning through everyday experiences, and I’m constantly observing what sparks curiosity and how ideas take shape.
