Hey Reader,

We've had some new tutors join the team this year so I figured it was time for an introduction!

I'm super grateful to have found some really solid tutors who I can trust to help our students.

Engineering Tutor Co-op

I’m currently a second-year engineering student at the University of Victoria.

I began my studies in general science before transferring into engineering.

Outside of school, I enjoy golfing, skiing, and surfing, as well as baking and painting.

Fun fact: I’ve mastered making French macarons.

Part Time Tutor - Biology & Chemistry

I have an associate’s degree from Selkirk College in Biology, and recently graduated from the University of Victoria with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology.

I have focused my course work on genetics and molecular biology, which I love to yap about!

During my degree, I did a lot of volunteer work as the Vice-President of the UVic Biology Undergrad Society, where I ran community and networking events for students.

Outside of work I like to bake cookies, go on hikes, and swim.

Fun fact: I am very good at solving Wordle puzzles!

Part Time Tutor - Math & Physics

I am currently in my second year of biomedical engineering at the University of Victoria, where I am developing a strong foundation in STEM subjects including physics, calculus, biology, and chemistry.

Since graduating high school in 2024, I have been driven by a passion for science and for helping other students understand complex topics in ways that suit their individual learning styles.

Outside of academics, I enjoy staying active. In my spare time you can usually find me running, baking banana bread, or enjoying a fresh batch.

A Fun Fact: I have Scottish heritage and used to compete as a highland dancer.

Feel free to forward this email to someone who might be looking for a tutor!

Thanks,

Matt Heywood
