How can our Math tutor in Richmond-Hill help you?
Math is a challening subject. It is cummulative in a sense that, if you miss the foundation or have gaps, the next year you will run into the same problem, with tougher concepts and problems. So building foundation is the first step. In addition, many students resort to memorizing equations, or steps, hoping the same problems will appear on tests. The teachers of course will change the questions and students get stuck.
Memorizing steps and equations doesn't work in math. You need to start with the foundation and understanding, then learn how to apply in various scenarios, and why the steps perform the way it does. The next step is to go through a variety of application problems and learn important problem solving skills. With good explanation and a solid understanding, and practice a variety of problems (which we provide as a package), you will do much better and enjoy math.

Math 11 (MCR3U) tutoring Richmond-Hill
Grade II Math is a major stepping stone into more advanced math in the 12th grade. From experience, we've seen that lots of students at this stage are often at a crossmads. Many of them do not know whether to choose the Mixed keel math course or the Academic level math course. But we usually advise them to go for the Academic level math, as it gives them options to choose from a more diverse range of university courses.The challenge is that they'll have to do more work. So unless they are certain of the pathe they want to take, we encourage them to go for the Advanced level math course.
There are several challenging units in grade II Math, such as exponents, transformation, trigonometry graphing, and trigonometry identities. In fact, it is at this level that they get introduced to proofs. The simpler units include quadratics, series, and sequences.

Math 12 (MHF4U) Tutoring Richmond-Hill
Advanced Functions, students learn units like factoring, graphing, trigonometry, and exponents. Most university programs require this course as a prerequisite, hence they very important. Typically, students will build upon the skills they learned in the Grade 11 course. At this point, things can get even tougher for an average student. Some units, such as polynomial functions, are quite simple, while others, such as trigonometry and proofs are on the hard side. For this reason, some students have described Advanced Functions as a roller caster ride of a course, considering all the thrills and challenges it entails.

Calculus (MCV4U) Tutoring Richmond-Hill
In Calculus, there are two different sections - derivative (extends from work in Advanced Functions) and Vectors Calculus, which is completely unrelated to the first. Vector Calculus is similar to Physics in terms of problem-solving. The Calculus derivative section takes root in and branches out from Advanced Functions. It includes units like algebra, graphing, trigonometry, and logarithms. The vector component, on the other hand, is entirely new, and involves 3D equations of lines and planes. The problem-solving aspects of Vector Calculus are also similar to physics. Generally, many students find Advanced Functions difficult.

How to get high marks in Math 11 (MCR3U)?
Common challenges for math 11
Grade 11 Math is a major stepping stone into more advanced math in the 12th grade. From experience, we`ve seen that lots of students at this stage are often at a crossroads. Many of them do not know whether to choose the Mixed level math course or the Academic level math course. But we usually advise them to go for the Academic level math, as it gives them options to choose from a more diverse range of university courses. The challenge is that they'll have to do more work. So unless they are certain of the pathe they want to take, we encourage them to go for the Advanced level math course.
There are several challenging units in grade 11 Math, such as exponents, transformation, trigonometry graphing, and trigonometry identities. In fact, it is at this level that they get introduced to proofs. The simpler units include quadratics, series, and sequences.
2 tips to score higher marks on math 11 MCR3U
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.
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)?
Common challenges for advanced functions
In Advanced Functions, students learn units like factoring, graphing, trigonometry, and exponents. Most university programs require this course as a prerequisite, hence they`re very important. Typically, students will build upon the skills they learned in the Grade 11 course. At this point, things can get even tougher for an average student. Some units, such as polynomial functions, are quite simple, while others, such as trigonometry and proofs are on the hard side. For this reason, some students have described Advanced Functions as a rollercoaster ride of a course, considering all the thrills and challenges it entails.
2 tips to score higher marks on advanced functions MHF4U
It would be a good idea, before the beginning of Advanced Functions, to brush up on the foundations 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!
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 and Vectors 12 (MCV4U)?
Common challenges for Calculus and Vectors 12
In Calculus, there are two different sections - derivative (extends from work in Advanced Functions) and Vectors Calculus, which is completely unrelated to the first. Vector Calculus is similar to Physics in terms of problem-solving. The Calculus derivative section takes root in and branches out from Advanced Functions. It includes units like algebra, graphing, trigonometry, and logarithms. The vector component, on the other hand, is entirely new, and involves 3D equations of lines and planes. The problem-solving aspects of Vector Calculus are also similar to physics. Generally, many students find Advanced Functions difficult.
2 tips to score higher marks on Calculus and Vectors 12 MCV4U
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.
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.

FAQ for Math Tutoring Richmond Hill
How much does a math tutor cost in Richmond Hill?
It varies based on the age of the child and subject university tutoring of course requires a different level of expertise and will cost more than elementary school tutoring doing division.
Is it worth getting a maths tutor?
The main part is to build a good foundation. Math is cumulative, if you ignore the issue, it will stack up and you still have to deal with the foundation gaps at a later date.
What should you not do when tutoring
4 things that you shouldn't do when tutoring:
1. Late
2. Lose focus
3. Not know what topic to cover
4. Lack of practice / don't do your homework
How many times a week should I see a tutor?
Depending on your level. If you are 80 or above, once a week should be sufficient. If you are getting below 70, we will strongly recommend to come 2x a week.
Is private tutoring legal in Canada
Yes of course. Education is an important component and the Government of Canada always encourages it.
Is hiring a tutor worth it?
Yes if your tutor is good, knows how to teach, and knowledgable. We have the best tutors in the QE team, who have the experience and passion to help you succeed.
Is it worth paying a tutor?
Yes if your tutor is good and if you are behind. It is important to build a good foundation, so you can excel in your high school year and be competitive on your university applications.
How many hours should I tutor per week?
It depends on your grade. If you are 80 or above, once a week should be fine. If you get under 70, we will strongly recommend to do twice a week.
At what age should I get my child a tutor?
We have students coming from grade 5 to university. Grade 5 to 7 will be a good starting age, where the basic foundation is important and you are not doing catch-up. In this case you can nurture your child's skill and interest and build a good routine.
Are tutors better than teachers?
Teachers have to manage a class or 30+ kids, whereas QE tutors are one on one. The level of attention is unmatch - not because of the skills of the teacher, but because of the session setup. We can target and tailor to the strengths and weakness of the student and focus on overcoming individual gaps in their foundation. You can't do that in a 30 kids classroom.
Is tutoring once a week effective?
It depends on the student's level. If the student is achieving 80% or above, then once a week should be fine. Anything below you should consider doing twice a week. A lot of time has to be spent on overcoming your foundaiton gaps, and at the same time keep you up on the current curriculum.
What is the hardest part of tutoring?
The hardest part of tutoring is adapting the teaching approach to the learning style of the student. The second part is to encourage and inspire hte student with passion, especially the ones who have lost confidence. QE has turned around students from 55% to acheiving 89% in grade 12, within a year. But this takes a lot of efforts and persistence.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
At QE, high school tutoring sessions are 1.5 hours each, whereas elementary tutoring is 1 hour each.
