OUR TUTORS
KEANU
CEO
Hey! I’m Keanu, founder of TPT. As an experienced teacher and tutor, I believe in taking a holistic approach to tutoring in order to facilitate the development of a Growth Mindset, as the only constant each year is the student themselves. This means teaching students to love and be efficient in their learning by helping them to master essential skills, as well as, develop their mathematical intuition to create a foundation from which they can build upon. My unwavering belief that all students have the potential to be successful leaves no student behind. Aside from teaching, my other passions include playing sports (especially soccer, volleyball and rugby) and board games!
Mary
Math Tutor Grades 6-12 | Chemistry | Physics 11-12
Hi, I’m Mary! I currently teach and reside in Quebec, and have been for the past few years. Before that, I completed an Honour’s Bachelor of Science Degree in Biochemistry, with a specialization in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Ottawa. Following this, I completed my teacher training at McGill University in Montreal. Outside of classroom teaching, I have been a tutor for about a decade in a variety of subjects, including math and science (biology, chemistry, and physics), for a wide variety of grades. My belief is that with practice and the proper support, we can all achieve our goals! When I’m not working, I love to travel (most recently Italy!), learn new languages (1000+ day streak on Duolingo!), host and attend dinner parties and game nights with friends and family, relax with a nice book or movie, and play sports (particularly team sports, like volleyball and basketball). Looking forward to our sessions together!

I am a Math, Science, Physical Education, and Special Education teacher with lots of experience as a tutor. I believe that a student centered approach will give learners of all abilities the opportunity to strive towards their goals. I also use thinking routines to promote critical thinking, problem solving skills, and self analysis. I am an approachable and kind teacher, as I understand building relationships with my students is key to instilling confidence and moving towards success in their academics.

Our brains all learn differently! I love mistakes and I want students to feel the same. There is always so much to learn from our mistakes. My goal is to instill the love of learning, especially math, in all students. When not teaching, I love to spend time with my family and outside in my gardens.

Outside of work, since I live in the Greater Toronto Area, I enjoy taking nature walks, reading new books, visiting various sights and generally enjoy nature. I also have a parrot and I love to engage in singing contests with her! I look forward to meeting you!
JOANNE
French Tutor Grades 1-12 | English 1-8 | Science 1-8
Bonjour! My name is Joanne, and I am an Ontario Certified Teacher with qualifications in French, Geography, History, and Math. I am a retired Junior/Intermediate teacher with 33 years of experience. I taught various subjects in grades 4 to 9. I truly love the one-on-one concept of tutoring and often use real-life subject matter to help students understand and grasp difficult concepts. I believe in getting to know the child—their likes and dislikes, what they think they are struggling with, and their preferences for how they learn. I believe that each student can find success in their own learning. Outside of work, since I live in Northern Ontario, you can find me and my husband walking our dogs near the Great Lakes or the North Channel. I love watching crime shows, reading crime-related books, and trying new recipes in my kitchen.

AMINE
Science | Physics Tutor Grades 9-12 | French 1-12
Hello! My name is Amine. I am an Alberta and Saskatchewan certified teacher with qualification in French, Sciences and Maths. My teaching philosophy is very simple - students do not care how much you know, until they know how much you care. I show my students that I care by forming relationships and trying to help them find their dreams and strengths so they can believe in themselves the way I believe in them. Apart from teaching, I used to play Rugby and Soccer, and I am keen to transmit the love of the game to my kids and my students.

ALEXANDER
Physics Tutor Grades 11-12 | Math 1-12
Hi, my name is Alexander but you can call me Alex. I am an Ontario Certified Teacher with qualifications in mathematics, science, and physics. My goal as a teacher is to develop life-long learners through the acquisition of transferable skills such as critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving to ensure their future success. As changing career trends occur life-long learners are able to adapt by leveraging transferable skills to apply them within new settings for future success. As a teacher I also believe in taking a student-centered and collaborative approach which comes out in my teaching as a series of questions to activate student learning. This realizes my goal as students activate life-long learning skills which allows them to learn concepts more deeply as they actively learn.
​
When I am not teaching, I frequently enjoy watching math videos that explain concepts visually or through an alternative viewpoint. I also enjoy playing video games and learning how they are developed!
