Burlington
Tutoring

Along with an emphasis in Business Management and Marketing, I also have extensive experience working with children of all ages. I decided that I wanted to pursue a career that would not only put my management skills to great use, but also provide assistance in the educational growth and development of children. This decision is what led me to Oxford Learning.

Oxford Learning holds a special place in my heart, as I myself was a student in high school. Throughout my time at Oxford, I developed much more confidence in myself, there were big imporvements in my attitude and a signifigant increase in my grades. I strongly believe in the program because I’ve experienced first hand that it truly does work! There is nothing more rewarding than knowing you have helped so many students, young AND old, achieve great academic and personal success. I really enjoy building relationships with all of our students and feel it is so important for each child or teen to know they are in a comfortable and safe environment, while also incorporating a little fun into what they are learning about. 

In my free time, I enjoy seeing live music, going to hockey games, anything that involves creativity, being outdoors, doing fun activities with my niece and nephews and spending time with my family, friends and my pets.

With a Bachelor of Honors Degree from Trent University and an emphasis in Teacher Education and Psychology, I am committed to helping students achieve their academic and cognitive goals. Over the past twelve years working for Oxford Learning, I have attained new skills and experiences to help in my role as Director of Education. I enjoy working together with both parents and students to ensure they receive the best possible program. I am committed to ensuring students are in a safe environment where they feel confident, motivated, and most importantly, inspired. In my spare time I enjoy doing fun activities with my son, reading books and enjoying time with my family and friends.

Hello! My name is Daniela and I am the Education Coordinator as of September 2021.  I do on occasion teach Grades K-8 for reading, writing and math. I’m a graduate from McMaster University with a Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.Sc) in Behavioural Psychology and a minor in Linguistics. I strongly value the importance of clear communication and enjoy working with students to improve their articulation. 

I love working at Oxford because it caters to the unique needs of students and creates a welcoming environment, which helps students feel appreciated. Oxford acknowledges the ‘small wins’, which is one of my favourite parts. This means no matter how big or small the accomplishment is, we are always proud of our students. 

Beyond academics, we value the importance of life skills such as time management and organization. These are valuable traits that will help prepare individuals for life success. Most importantly, I love working at Oxford because I witness increased confidence amongst the students and an increased drive to learn. 

Beyond the classroom, I enjoy spending time with family/friends, baking and taking long walks.

Hi, I'm Jessica! I am currently pursuing my teaching degree after graduating from McMaster with a BA in English.

Oxford Learning is the reason why I knew I wanted to become a teacher. After working with the great students who come here and seeing the progress they make, it really motivated me to start my teaching career. I am the Education Coordinator, but I also occasionally teach grades JK to 8 as well as the French students. Oxford Learning is a fantastic place for students to improve their grades, become more confident, and have fun while doing so. Oxford Learning has a way of teaching students skills to help them improve both in and out of school, with methods I've never seen before. I have seen countless students improve their skills and grades, and their confidence goes up because of this. Every time a student comes in excited to tell me what they got on a test I may have helped them study for, or an assignment they did well on, I love to celebrate with them and keep their momentum going!

In my spare time, I like to read, write, spend time with my family and friends; especially outdoors and especially with my dog (or any dog!)

Hello! My name is Nima and I tutor students from Grade 1 all the way to high school and university. My background is Iranian. In Iran, I was ranked 135th out of 518,000 students nationally. I was also accepted into medical school. I am currently studying biochemistry at McMaster University. I also have many years of tutoring experience.

I tutor subjects such as calculus, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and English. I also prepare students for the SAT and university level examinations such as the MCAT, LSAT, GMAT and so on.

Oxford Learning has given me the chance to pursue my passion; teaching and mentoring young enthusiastic students. I generally have a great connection with younger kids as well. Other than tutoring, I truly enjoy talking to my students about their life, their school experiences, and their interests. I always try to encourage my students to feel smart and participate actively in our sessions. I aim to make students truly feel confident in their abilities. 

In my spare time, I enjoy playing basketball, swimming, spending time with friends and family and reading.

I look forward to continuing to work with all of the amazing students here!

Hello!  My name is Courtney and I teach students in the Beyond Tutoring (Core) and Advantage (High School) programs. I completed my H.B.Sc. in the Life Science Program at McMaster University and decided to pursue a teaching career to share my passion for science with others. I am currently finishing my B.Ed. at Brock University and aspire to be a Grade 10 science teacher.  

Some of the skills that I emphasize and believe to be valuable throughout school and life include the ability to collaborate, prioritize, organize, and creatively problem solve. At Oxford Learning I have the chance to help students develop effective strategies that can help them overcome a variety of challenges in the classroom. I enjoy building a more personal connection with each student at Oxford Learning and always try to bring students' personal interests into the learning environment. One of the things I am passionate about is making learning fun and accessible to everyone. 

Outside of the classroom, I am a dedicated gardener and yoga instructor. I have been practicing yoga for 5 years and I am grateful to have the opportunity to teach students about the power and importance of mindfulness. I am also a video game enthusiast, adore a wide variety of TV shows, and am competitive with trivia and board games.

Hi! I’m Lauren and I teach students in JK to grade 8. I just completed my Bachelor's Degree in Child and Youth Studies from Brock University. I’ll be starting Teacher’s College in September 2021 to earn my Bachelor of Education Degree, also at Brock University. 

I knew I wanted to be a teacher from a very young age. I remember the excitement I felt going to school and I love to celebrate that excitement with students as well! I believe in celebrating small and big accomplishments with students. I enjoy seeing the excitement and pride in students when they learn new concepts; my goal is to help students so that they can feel this way in every class. I get great satisfaction from seeing students grow and develop, both personally and academically. Helping students realize their growth and potential is so important! I believe in building relationships with students and getting to know them as a student as well as a person. This helps me to adapt my teaching style in a way that works best for each student and also makes learning more fun. 

"Hey there! My name is Vijithan and I tutor students from grades 4 to 12 in the Beyond Tutoring (Core) and Advantage (High School) programs! I am currently in my 5th year of studies at Ryerson University pursuing a major in Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science. My goal at Oxford Learning is to make sure that my students are prepared for their future and enjoy learning as much as I do.

Tutoring is my greatest passion and I love teaching and sharing my experiences with the students here. I have been in a position when I was in high school where I wished I could have had a teacher that understands me and the way I learn. This is why I strive to be that teacher for my students. Oxford Learning gives me the opportunity to help these students be the best version of themselves and for them to feel confident in their own abilities. I believe that each and every student has the potential to be great and it is my responsibility as their tutor to bring this potential out.

In my own time, I love to play basketball, watch tv shows and play video games. Otherwise, you can catch me relaxing with friends and family or even making or trying new types of food. "

Hi! My name is Alex and I teach students in the Beyond Tutoring (Core) to Advantage (Highschool) programs. I attended Western University and received my Honours Double Major in Biology and Pharmacology. I then decided to pursue a career in clinical research, and begun that journey by receiving a Post-Graduate Diploma from Western Continuing Studies in Clinical Trails Management. I now currently work for a Clincial Research Organization based out of London, Ontario that focuses of gastrointestinal disease research.

Tutoring provides me with the irreplaceable opportunity to not only work with students but also challenge myself, explore new ideas and grow alongside them. Working with the students at Oxford allows for me to constantly evolve as a teacher and learner, as I enable students to reach their full academic potentials. 

In my free time I love staying active, whether that is with my beagle pup Daisy for playing recreational basketball. You can also find me watching tv shows and movies, especially anything Marvel!

Hi! I’m Ms. Veronica and I tutor students from junior kindergarten to high school. I graduated from the University of Toronto majoring in Psychology and French Teaching and Learning. 

As a mother and a tutor I find it most rewarding to watch a child/student grasp a concept or skill that they had previously been struggling with. I’ve always loved children and find that I grow and learn as much from them as they do from me.

I love working for Oxford because they have such an amazing group of students and because the staff is so kind and supportive.

During my spare time I enjoy hiking, gardening, swimming and skating. I also love to sing, dance (to the dismay of my children), read and learn.  Most of all, I love to spend time sharing a laugh with my family and friends.

My goal is to not only have students improve their grades but to foster their curiosity and a lifelong love of learning.   

Hello! My name is Amy and I tutor students from Grades 6-12 and University. Specifically, subjects in English, Mathematics and Science: Chemistry and Biology. I hold a Master of Science degree in Kinesiology from the University of Connecticut and I am currently pursuing my Doctorate of Education. My full time work includes teaching Grade 11 Functions and Grade 12 Chemistry. 

Oxford learning has provided me a chance to pursue my passion. I enjoy teaching and tutoring students who may just need that extra help to achieve their goals in the classroom and future endeavours. I enjoy working with students to help provide a comfortable platform where they can make mistakes, learn from them and grow. My goal is to help students build confidence in any educational discipline. 

Outside teaching and tutoring, I enjoy cycling and spending time with friends and family.

I look forward to working with all students at Oxford Learning!

Hello! My name is Bezalel and I tutor students in math, science, and core from grades 7 to 12 as well as university-level students. I am currently doing a Co-Op placement with Loblaw Companies Limited before I go back to University to complete my last year of Computer Engineering. My goal at Oxford is to help students learn by catering to the way they learn and making them feel confident in themselves.

Oxford Learning has given me a platform to share the knowledge that I have gained over the years, not only what I learned in high school but beyond as well. I enjoy talking to students about their day and sharing how I can relate to them through my experiences. 

My hobbies include watching TV shows, going to the gym, cooking, and playing video games. I look forward to tutoring all the amazing students here!
