Personal Description:
I believe in lifelong learning and am always looking for ways to better my mind, body and soul. While I am proud to call Winnipeg my home, I am often dreaming of my next destination to explore. For me, traveling provides just as much opportunity for adventure as it does a chance to learn something new. Healthy living is paramount to me - from biking to running to yoga to weights, my daily sweat is the best medicine that I'll ever need. I'm a goal setter and am focused, motivated and driven to accomplish everything to which I put my mind. I learn from my mistakes and value opportunities to grow.
I am a graduate from the University of Winnipeg (B.Sc Honours in Biological Psychology and a B.A in Psychology). I am currently working towards a Bachelor of Education at the University of Winnipeg and will graduate in 2020.
Tutoring Experience:
During my undergraduate studies, I coordinated a national, non-profit organization called Let's Talk Science (2012-2017). My experience provided me the opportunity to spend hundreds of hours in classrooms running workshops across Winnipeg, rural Manitoba and northern communities in Alberta, Nunavut and the Yukon. As site-coordinator, I attended many educational conferences, trained local volunteers and developed and improved extensive programming with various community partners.
I also volunteered for peer-tutoring programs while in middle- and high-school, helping students with a variety of course material (including: biology, English and math). Since beginning university, I have also taught swimming lessons both privately and as an Instructor/Guard for the City of Winnipeg (2012-present).
Lastly, my experience while studying towards my Bachelor of Education has helped me to not only better understand issues in education, psychological learning theories and lesson planning, but has also provided me excellent practical experience in the classroom. Being heavily involved in the professional education and teaching community has been a valuable asset to my tutoring endeavours.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe in a holistic approach to learning. While I understand that learning processes are unique to individuals and that programs should be student-oriented, I strive to provide guidance and direction so as to challenge and progress the student appropriately.
The tutoring location is flexible and will be discussed on a case-by-case basis. I am willing to travel to you!

Ian's Feedback

| Positive Feedback Provided: |
He is an A+ tutor and I definitely recommend him to other parents looking to help their kids.
You give your students a comfortable, judgement free, space which allows learning to be more enjoyable. You seem to be extremely patient which allows students to feel comfortable enough to try, make mistakes, and learn from them.
Not only this, you actively engage in both audio and visual learning for the various learning styles a student might have. Your examples are easy to understand and you tend not to move on until youre sure that your student understands the topic that you are reviewing with them; which is great because you also try o connect concepts and examples together to make things easier.
