Often times in Math and Science subjects, students end up feeling lost because they didn't fully grasp a fundamental concept or gain enough confidence in using it. Classes often have a strict schedule to follow, which does not allow them the flexibility of revisiting concepts a student may have missed. Rather than marching on at an unstoppable pace, I place focus on figuring out what gaps in knowledge a student might have and addressing those first, to ensure their foundation is strong enough to always know what the next step is. My goal is to teach a student how to use their pre-existing knowledge to be able to analyse new concepts and to develop their problem solving and inference skills. Being able to consistently figure out what you don't know and what you can figure out is the basis of strong learning and problem solving skills, and I aim to make this approach a second nature for my students. Furthermore, knowing what inevitably needs to be memorized (and how to drill this information into your brain) and what can be easily reconstructed from a problem's given information and what you know, are, in my opinion, the cornerstones of efficient study and test-taking skills. Instilling this concept into my students' processes is another of my major goals. As for whom this class may suit: I can teach Mathematics, Computer Science, and Physics from an elementary school level to the university level (depending on the exact subject), and can teach Chemistry up to the high school senior level. If you are unsure about whether a topic or class falls into this range, please feel free to message me!

Orfeas is a knowledgeable and understanding tutor who is patient with children. My two children said he was very helpful and I found him polite and punctual.
Orfeas really understands the subject and explains things clearly, making everything easier to grasp. He’s also very patient and always open to questions. He truly cared about my learning and made sure I actually understood the topics. Additionally, he was super flexible with scheduling, which made everything way more convenient.
Orfeas was a very good tutor. He was extremely patient with my daughter and thought of a few different methods to help her understand the work. He related well with her young age. He was extremely patient and even offered to spend a few extra moments after the work hour.
