Math, Done Right

Deep learning. Real Results.
Math isn't taught properly in our public schools. Teachers don't understand the material, can't explain concepts or answer questions, and students are chronically confused, stressed, and unprepared for university mathematics. We do math right. We explain every concept in depth (i.e. we show students where the math they're doing comes from, and why it works – not just how to do it) and answer questions before they're asked. Our students develop real, deep, lasting understanding, and head to university confident and primed for success.
​Enrol your budding scholar today, and see what math learning should be like!

"Thanks for teaching us! It makes so much sense when you teach."
"You rock :) I'm not even in this tutorial but you're great."

(Simon teaching calculus to U of T engineering students, Fall 2018)
"Please lead my lectures, you do a better job of explaining things than my lecturer :("
"You help me understand a lot of these concepts better! Thanks!"
"Great job!"
"Simon was a great TA who put in a great deal of effort to help us all learn. There was not a question left unanswered despite whatever the scope of the course may be. He contributed a lot to the depth of my learning, whenever something was not clicking I’d essentially run to Simon with the full confidence that he’d be able to mend that gap for me. I recall our first tutorial where he was teaching us about absolute values, and solving was the easy bit but the restrictions were what always got me and I remember the exact moment he mended that gap for me."
"You're the best! Thanks so much for all your hard work!"
"Awesome job! :) Thanks for all the help."
"Really does want us to learn – we love you Simon!"
"You should be an instructor [lecturer]!!
You are such a great teacher!!"
"Great teaching concepts"
"Keep it up! Very helpful tutorial."
"The lessons are so helpful."
"Keep up the awesome work!"
