Message from the tutor

It is time for mathematics

For every student, and for success in school or university, I offer:

    • Math lessons covering the Elementary / Middle School, High School, College / University curriculum to build good foundation for future learning and address gaps in knowledge

    • After school lessons to keep students engaged with math during the entire school year and prevent loss of knowledge during semesters without math courses

    • Intensive unit test and exam preparations and reviews

For students, who consider pursuing further mathematics or related sciences, are interested in math competitions and want to take their knowledge to the next level:

    • Introduction to olympiad style problems, which require more ingenuity than the typically provided school curriculum problems

    • Summer classes to keep the students focused on math and solve problems from past contests

    • Intensive preparation for olympiads and math contests before the event

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more violent and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction." Einstein

About me

JANETTE ILIEVA

Mathematics teacher

MMT, University of Waterloo

MSc, Mathematics and Computer Science, Technical University of Sofia, 1994

with over 20 years of experience in teaching Elementary, Middle, High School and College mathematics curriculum

Member of the Ontario Association for Mathematics Education-OAME, Member of the Credit Humber Association for Mathematics Promotion- CHAMP

Member of the Marking Team- Math Contest at University of Waterloo

I believe that every student can learn mathematics. I teach students how to master the mathematics material, increase their confidence, and pull up their grades, while having more fun and gradually discovering the beauty of mathematics. I have worked as math, computer science and related disciplines teacher in a number of great schools and institutions:

    • Rowntree Montessori School- Brampton, ON

    • La Citadelle Academy of Science, North York, ON

    • The College of New Jersey, Trenton, USA

    • University "Sv. Sv. Kiril i Metodi", Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria

    • High School "Asen Zlatarov", Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria

The greatest satisfaction I derive from my work is when a student, who has given up any hope that he can learn math, works with me and discovers, that he can make progress, gains confidence and gradually starts enjoying the learning process.
