Michael P.
Private tutor in Victoria, Canada
Education
I attended Simon Fraser University, where I qualified for a minor in Linguistics before transferring institutions. I transferred to the University of Victoria, where I earned a Bachelor's in English. I am currently a student in secondary PDP.
Experience
I am an experienced editing and writing tutor. I have a wide range of knowledge in educational techniques. During my undergraduate studies, I took many humanities courses. I have a strong understanding of Canadian and world history, geography, English literature, linguistics, and more. I can help students of all ages and levels from first grade through college in numerous subjects such as reading, writing, social studies, English, computer skills, and many more. I can help with anything from homework help to test prep. We can work through difficult concepts together until you gain a deeper understanding of them. I enjoy making learning fun for my students through the use of educational games.
