Her writing and reading improved quickly

Patricia K. helped our daughter gain confidence and tools to practice her reading and writing. Her playful, progressive and thoughtful teaching style and structured lessons have meant that our daughter looks forward to her sessions every week. We saw her writing and reading improve quickly, starting from her first lesson. Most importantly her confidence in her own skills have grown and she is enjoying practicing again! 

Patricia K. is a very reliable, trustworthy and knowledgeable tutor.

Lucky

Thanks to you and your team for running such an effective, efficient and reliable service. We were happy to connect with Patricia K. She is so thoughtful, gentle, generous and talented, and a great match for my son. We’re excited to continue our sessions with her — she is reliable, skilled, thoughtful, resourceful, and creative. I feel lucky to have matched with her!

Thanks again for all your help! Best wishes.

Encouraging and Engaging Tutor

I am writing to inform TTS of my experience of having been tutored in math by Mr. Silviu Z. I had reached out to Silviu earlier this year when I realized that it would be a struggle for me to complete a difficult online math course without help from an expert. At the time, I was also taking four other courses from Athabasca, all prerequisites for UBC’s Bachelor of Education Program. I do not have a strong mathematical background. Silviu was extremely helpful and patient while tutoring me. He helped me arrive at understandings and comprehensions of math that would have been out of my depth if not for his expertise. He is an encouraging and engaging teacher who sincerely cares about the success of his students. I would recommend him to anybody who is looking to further develop their mathematical skills.

Confidence and perseverance

Gabe got an 80 on his final and finished with a 79 in his class. We are pleased with how things went this year with math for him. His confidence and perseverance were greatly impacted by Lori’s support! Gabe really appreciated it as well and had very positive things to say about working with Lori F.

Heidi G.

Extremely Grateful

I just wanted to follow up on my daughter’s experience with TTS.

Jordan A. was prompt, accommodating and supportive to our daughters needs.  We were able to work out a weekly schedule plus Mr. A was accommodating to a few extra sessions prior to tests. Mr. A. in both his communications with me and my daughter, was always prompt and kind. He supported our daughter to understand Chemistry 12 concepts in a way that was more aligned with our daughter’s learning style.

We are extremely grateful for our whole experience overall with TTS and look forward to continuing with tutoring for our other children in the upcoming school year.

Wishing you a great summer, Rain.

Above and beyond

Silviu Z. is an excellent tutor, helping me excel in both in-person and online courses through his vast resources and knowledge of the BC curriculum. He was instrumental in my success through my pre-calculus courses, and continues to assist me moving into my university classes, most notably MATH 100. Thank you to Mr. Z for going above and beyond to help his students succeed.

Very helpful, thorough and professional

Daniel S. tutored my son in Chemistry 11 a few times and we were very pleased with his services. My son did better than expected on his Chemistry 11 final! We would not hesitate in hiring him again or in recommending him to others. He was very helpful, thorough and professional! Thank you very much!

Thank you for your time and effort

I would like to thank the tutor Gerry M. for his time and effort to provide help to my son. The final report has been issued today and his Calculus 12 is 87% which is “A”. I am glad that he had Gerry as his tutor during the last month of school. 

Once again, thank you for your time and effort.

Kind and fun tutor

Our family contacted Patricia K. in a bit of a panic last fall when my daughter’s grade 6 classroom teacher went on leave and we were left with a different substitute every day. 

Patricia K. fit us in right away and started working with my daughter in math and language arts. Listening to their sessions my daughter was happy and engaged – a miracle! Patricia encouraged her creative writing skills and her appreciation of my daughter’s writing really gave my daughter confidence to work hard on her writing and take it to the next level.  In math Patricia has worked tirelessly on the fundamentals with my daughter and her most recent report card showed a vast improvement from the last two. I cannot recommend Patricia’s kind, fun, consistent and thoughtful approach more. She is a wonderful tutor.
