Information About Katia
Thorold tutorPersonal Description:
I am a graduate student at Brock University as well as a teaching assistant in the math department. I have a diploma in french (as it is my mother tongue), and a master degree in cryptography (mathematics). With my advanced education in the field of mathematics and statistics, I am hoping, through my effort being as warm and approachable as needed, that I will be able to help bridge the gap between struggle and success for many of the students.
Tutoring Experience:
Since freshman year I’ve worked with children from grade 1 to 12 as an at home tutor and teaching aide, helping them through hard time and motivating them not to give up, and I have enjoyed the satisfaction of observing their improvement. When I started as a teaching assistant this year at Brock University, I had the pleasure noticing that I enjoyed teaching online as much as I used to do it in person, giving tips to students and answering their questions and constantly enhancing their learning potential through several examples and thorough explanation of the course content. I am very passionate about education and would welcome the opportunity to help the students along in their journey to a better future.
Tutoring Approach:
I've been a student once, and i know how we want to have things being explained to us, so during my tutoring session i always make sure that the student is feeling as free as possible to ask as many questions as she/he wants, and try my best to find the better and easiest approach of the course content for each student i'm working with.
