How can our Math tutor in Vaughan help you?
Math is a challenging subject. It is cumulative in a sense that, if you miss the foundation or have gaps, the next year you will run into the same problem. So building a foundation is the first steps.
QE teaching approach is based on understanding, not memorizing
Memorizing steps and equations doesn't work because your teacher will change the questions on tests. Students need to understand the concepts and learn how to apply them. This means understanding the why behind the concepts and knowing how each piece fits together in the big picture.
All QEA math tutoring in Vaughan 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.

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 crossroads. 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 path 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.
Welcome to join us: Math Tutoring Vaughan
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 rollercoaster ride of a course, considering all the thrills and challenges it entails.

Why do QE students achieve higher marks?
QE Foundation approach to tutoring
Step 1.
Review the concepts from school
To build a good foundation, students must understand the concepts first. QE is Ministry accredited, we have lesson plans on every unit, down to every single step. We teach the concepts first and then teach them how to apply them.
Step 2.
Go over school homework and our Test-level worksheets - better preparation for application test questions
Students can’t memorize solutions. They must understand the rationale behind each step and that’s what we teach.
Step 3.
Weekly Test-level worksheets + Mock exams
Teachers sometimes give easy homework and put on tough tests. QE develops our own worksheets that are on par with tests' difficulty, especially on application problems.
For most subjects, we provide mock exams to simulate an exam-writing environment. This will reduce stress.
Step 4.
QE students get Seminars on Study skills and test writing strategies to build the students long term success
We provide seminars throughout the year for our students.
We focus on building the long-term success of the student - on study skills, time management, test writing strategies, and how to reduce test anxieties.
Agencies/tutor centers Random approaches
Agency/center tutors come to the session empty-handed - students get a low grade
They randomly answer some questions from the students and burn out the hour.
Kids often don’t know what to ask - they don’t know what they don’t know.
As a result, students get poor grades and develop foundation gaps, which will damage their grades in future years.
Agency tutors have limited access to test-level problems
Most of the textbook problems are easy, whereas the teacher gives tough problems on tests. 30% of each test is based on application problems to which they have no access. Therefore, their students get low grades.
Lack of extra worksheets. No test-level difficulty problems
Their students get low grades due to a lack of practice
None. Students don’t learn any study skills or test writing strategies from Agencies/centers
Thank you QE - for the Foundation!

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 path 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 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!
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.

Are math tutors worth it?
Math tutor is worth it, if you can find a good one, who will help you to build a good foundation It's important because math counts for most of your university application marks, and it's very competitive.
How much does a math tutor cost in Vaughan?
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
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.
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 foundation 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 the 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 many times a week should you tutor?
Ongoing research consistently demonstrates that students perform at their best when they receive regular and consistent tutoring services. For the majority of students, receiving this level of support twice a week strikes a balance that provides necessary assistance without feeling overly burdensome.
Is 50 too old to start teaching?
Regardless of where you are in your path towards becoming a teacher, it is essential to recognize that age should not be a determining factor. Schools and students require a diverse range of teachers with varied backgrounds and experiences. In fact, your unique experiences and skills are likely to be an asset, contributing to the richness and value of your classroom and your teaching. In summary, it is never too late to pursue a career in teaching!
What a tutor should not do?
Here are 7 things that tutors must avoid:
1.Revealing personal details about their private life. While it is the responsibility of tutors to supervise the academic development of their students, it is also important to maintain appropriate social boundaries.
2.Engaging in physical contact with their students.
3.Showing up for sessions unprepared.
4.Losing their temper or composure while tutoring.
5.Refusing to adapt to the individual learning styles and needs of their students.
6.Moving through material too quickly, without ensuring that their students have understood the concepts.
7.Making promises that they cannot keep.
Is paying for a tutor worth it?
Tutoring offers a valuable opportunity for one-on-one attention to your child, and consistent sessions provide them with the chance to work through homework assignments, improve organizational skills, develop effective planning strategies, and prepare thoroughly for upcoming tests.
Can I become a teacher without a degree?
It is possible to become a teacher without a degree and obtain the Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS) status, which the government recognizes as being equivalent to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in maintained primary and secondary schools.
How do I know if a tutor is good?
When evaluating whether a tutor is a good fit for you, consider these five factors:
1.The tutor establishes a positive working relationship with you.
2.The tutor communicates their plans and expectations in a clear and timely manner.
3.The tutor is able to explain complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand.
4.The tutor's ultimate goal is to help you become self-sufficient and independent.
5.The tutor's expectations are realistic and achievable.

Queen Elizabeth Academy | Private Credit Courses
I credit QEA for my entry into Western Engineering! Tutors/Teachers actually teach and care about ensuring students fully grasp the learning, their on-line group learning format far exceeds that in the public school system, numerous additional resources were available to set me up for success, and the school is very well run and organized. Thank you QEA!read more
It was a pleasure and a turning points for my children education when they joined Queen Elizabeth's Academy. What really make this Academy different is the great attention given to students, they analyse carefully the strength and weakness of their student, they work on clear strategy to improve students performance and are very flexible to change strategy when needed. they worked patiently with my son and improved his performance to excellency. It is great how management and especially Mr. Victor follow up with us on my son progress , I received many phone calls and emails with updates, this tight follow up and advices we received resulted in huge difference in my son performance and his awareness to his education. I highly recommend QEA.read more
My daughter decided to get a jump start to her last year in high school and decided to take the Gr 12 English summer course at Queen Elizabeth Academy. She had a great experience with Victor and her teacher Justin. Based on current circumstances classes were held virtually. Content was delivered in a professional manner, with group discussions and constant support throughout the course. I would highly recommend Queen Elizabeth Academy.read more
At a time when school had to be done differently, Queen Elizabeth Academy stepped up to the plate. During the initial change of school due to Covid my son was going to a public ally funded school and the most contact he had with his teachers was to read or watch something on-line and then do an assignment which he got a grade back but no feedback on what he did right or wrong. At Queensway academy my son has to sign on daily with his teacher and classmates ( small class size only 8 students) and she actually teaches a class. There is plenty of time for questions and my son gets feedback on his tests. Being at work I can’t monitor if my son actually signs on but there is great communication from the school. One day my son slept in and I got text and emails asking where my son was. They follow up quickly if you have any questions or concerns. I highly recommend attending here. Great learning happens here.read more
My daughter Megan has had the opportunity to take grade 11 math and grade 12 advanced functions at queen Elizabeth Academy. She is registered for physics 12 in the fall. Due to the pandemic situation we have been very worried that our child is not going to get the foundations in math and science that she needs. Thanks to Victor and his team of highly qualified teachers our concerns have been alleviated. Megan has had the traditional in class model with QEA and has just finished up with an online platform. Both have been great and I am confident that Megan is now prepared for university. I truly believe that the public school system of distance learning cannot do what Victor and his team have done for my daughter. She has been prepared for success as a direct result of professional teaching methods that work.read more
Have had nothing but positive experience with QEA for my 2 kids. We have taken both credit courses and some tutoring as necessary. Private credit courses were mainly grade 12 English over the summer and grade 12 math courses throughout the fall semester in the evening. I have heard quite a bit about private credit courses offered by other schools that are not as through and almost too easy for students to get high average. Courses at QEA are well laid out and very extensive to make sure they provide good foundations for post secondary education.
Victor is excellent at communicating with parents and students and he is also very good at listening and acting on everyones feedback. Highly recommend QEA!!read more
My son took a summer class from Queens Elizabeth Academy to improve his ability to do math. During this month, I can see a huge improvement because his mindset of learning and practicing his math skills are incredible. Huge thank you to Queens Elizabeth Academy for helping my son and helping his learning abilities.
My brother has enjoyed his tutoring immensely, and the tutors were kind and attentive throughout the quick paced overall tutoring period. Would definitely recommend QEA to anyone looking for summer tutoring.
