Tutor in Calgary, Alberta

I'm an
Individual
Hello! My name is Preet and I'm a born and raised Calgarian! When it comes to tutoring, I take more than one approach to any given subject/topic and tailor that approach to each student. Homework, test prep, essay writing, editing, reading, presentations, learning impediments, home schooling, "catching up", remedial learning, summer school, university placement, projects large or small and mark improvement regardless of current level... I handle them all. I know the Alberta curriculum, teacher's expectations and marking habits inside out. Over 12 years of experience tutoring boys and girls of all ages, abilities, goals and issues, I've worked with students from all four Alberta school boards. Experience with a myriad of learning and developmental challenges. Everything from the liberal arts and humanities fields, to mathematics and the sciences. Educated in Calgary. Many local references available upon establishing we could be a good "fit". Certified in Alberta and BC in English, Social Studies (all humanities), Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology for grades 1 through 12. I don't want to be your tutor forever, I want to teach the skills to move forward and have success without me. I hold a BA in English Literature. Right now I am doing both in person and online sessions, at the choice of my clients. Thank you kindly for your consideration.

Preet D. Has been tutoring my 3 kids since my oldest was in grade 2 and she is now in grade 11! All three of my children attend The Webber Academy. Before they were struggling in school and they didn't want to even go there. The teachers at Webber wondered if they should be enrolled in a less challenging school. Now they are some of the top performing students in the school and they regularly recieve academic awards, such as scholarships and regularly make the gold honor role. Their averages have never dipped below the mid to high eighty percent. Often they will bring home entire report cards in the 90's! More importantly they want to go to school and they value the ideas of working hard and learning!

Preet D, not only gave me a math strategy that has put a whole new perspective of my learning, but has also taught me so much about myself in the last few months. I recommend him because of all the effort he puts into his students with not stopping until we find the right strategy and even not stopping after we’ve found it.

Preet is reliable, positive, knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. He understands a comprehensive and up-to-date range of curriculum and exam requirements, and not only can help learners to develop relevant learning skills, he also adapts his tutoring style to meet different learner's learning styles. I can not recommend his tutoring services enough. My children (a wide range of ages and learning support needs) have all benefitted greatly from Preet's tutoring sessions as well as his more general supportive and encouraging tutoring style.
