How can our Math tutor in Edmonton help you build foundations?

Math is difficult for many students. It is cummulative in a sense that, if you miss the foundation or develop gaps, the subsequent years will be harder. So building a foundation is important.

QE teaching approach focuses on understanding, not memorizing

Memorizing is not the right approach. Students tends to memorize equations and steps, hoping the same questions will come out on tests. They won't. Learning math should based on understanding and apply this to a variety of problems. This also means understanding the why behind a concept and learn how to put the pieces together to form a bigger pricture. Then solving problems will become easy.

All QEA math tutoring in Edmonton is one on one private. We will teach the full lesson and review what you have learned during that week. In this way, you won't miss anything.

How to get high marks in Math 11 (MCR3U)?
- Math tutoring Edmonton

Common challenges for math 11

Grade 11 Math (MCR3U) challenges students with a big jump in difficulty, introducing abstract concepts and demanding more independent problem-solving.
  • Students often struggle with new topics like trigonometric identities, graph transformations, and algebraic proofs — all of which require deeper conceptual understanding.
  • Course selection adds pressure, as many students are unsure whether to take the Academic or Mixed stream, not realizing that Academic Math keeps more university options open.

2 tips to score higher marks on math 11 MCR3U

Tip #1.
Have a good foundation
Tips from QE Math tutors Edmonton

Before taking this math course, try to strengthen your math foundational skills from grade 10. Key math skills include factoring (especially trinomials), fractions (grade 8-9 level), Linear systems and quadratics with a good understanding of domain and range, x and y intercepts and asymptotes. With math foundational skills down it will be easier to follow the lessons and work in this math course, and less time will be spent catching up on previous material.

Tip #2.
Organize your steps
Organized tips from our QE Math tutors

Many grade 11 math questions involve multiple steps. Ensure you understand why you are undertaking each step from a logical or math perspective, and the pinpoint the goal of the steps, that is to say as ‘what am I trying to solve?’ Work through the steps after you have done this. By breaking the problems into steps, the questions will seem less overwhelming.

How to get high marks in Advanced Functions (MHF4U)?
- Math tutoring Edmonton

Common challenges for advanced functions

Advanced Functions (MHF4U) can feel like a rollercoaster for many students, as it combines familiar concepts with much more complex applications.
  • The calculus section builds on Advanced Functions, requiring a strong grasp of algebra, trigonometry, and graphing to succeed with derivatives and related applications.
  • The vector section introduces brand-new 3D concepts, with problem-solving skills that feel closer to physics — often catching students off guard if they lack spatial reasoning or experience.

2 tips to score higher marks on advanced functions MHF4U

Tip #1.
Strengthen your math foundation
Foundation tips from QE math tutors Edmonton

It would be a good idea, before the beginning of Advanced Functions, to brush up on the foundation's skills of math, such as factoring (especially trinomial factoring), domain and range, graphing, adding rational expression, and trigonometry ratios. If you wait until the course begins, it may be difficult to keep pace with the new material in Advanced Functions. Foundations are always important, and as with all mathematics course, this one builds upon your past knowledge, so be sure to review before starting Advanced Functions!

Tip #2.
Practicing of variety of application problems
Practice problems available from QE Math tutoring Edmonton

Also, make sure to keep good, organized notes to stay on top of the course units in Advanced Functions. Do not be afraid to practice problems beyond those assigned in the homework, as Advanced Functions is known for containing a very wide variety of questions and problems, and therefore the more you expose yourself to such problems, the better prepared you will be. Because of this, the Queen Elizabeth Academy provides all of our students with extra worksheets on Advanced Functions and practice tests to hone their skills and succeed.

How to get high marks in Calculus (MCV4U)?
Math tutoring Edmonton

Common challenges for Calculus and Vectors 12

Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U) is a split-focus course that challenges students with both advanced function-based calculus and entirely new vector concepts.
  • The calculus section builds on Advanced Functions, requiring a strong grasp of algebra, trigonometry, and graphing to succeed with derivatives and related applications.
  • The vector section introduces brand-new 3D concepts, with problem-solving skills that feel closer to physics — often catching students off guard if they lack spatial reasoning or experience.

2 tips to score higher marks on Calculus and Vectors 12 MCV4U

Tip #1.
Understanding the concept
Concepts taught from QE Math tutors Edmonton

In order to succeed in Vector Calculus, make sure you are proficient in exponents, factoring, combining rational expressions such as fractions with algebra, and solving equations.

Make sure to pay special attention to the Optimization Unit in Calculus, which includes many word problems. If you struggle with word problems, make sure to prepare for this Calculus unit in particular. As always, make sure to keep your notes organized. Identify the different kinds of Calculus problems. This will help you to clarify the Calculus concepts in this course significantly, and also help to keep track of your progress.

Tip #2.
Write down the steps clearly and understand the reasons behind them

When approaching vectors in Calculus, the concepts are highly complex. To address this, try to lay out and write down all of the steps clearly, and write down why you are taking such steps as well. What variable are you attempting to achieve at every step? This approach to tackle Calculus will simplify some of the more complex questions, and will also allow you to pinpoint areas in which you will require extra help.
