Who Are We?

We are all competent and experienced McMaster University students, with backgrounds in academic tutoring and mentorship guidance. Our team is composed of undergraduate mentors and tutors from all years and levels, specializing in Health Sciences, Biochemistry, Kinesiology, Biomedical Discovery & Commercialization, and Child Health. Ask us about our programs if you are interested!

All team members have been internally trained on tutoring and mentorship skills, guidelines, and standards to a high degree of excellence. Whichever tutor/mentor you are matched with, they have (1) gone through a similar process i.e., application navigation, course completion, etc. (2) have taken that course subject in both high-school and university, with at least 6 credits of experience and (3) have been vetted by the Co-Founders and Workshop Executive to ensure they possess a high level of knowledge on the respective subject or area of concern.
