Math Centres / Somerset / Our Team

Victoria G.

Instructor

Hi, I'm Victoria! I am currently completing my bachelor's degree at the University of Calgary with a major in Mathematics and a minor in Physics. In the future, I would like to pursue a master's (and maybe even a Ph.D.!) in math and eventually teach at the university level. I discovered my love for math after having some great math teachers in elementary school, and I know just how important it is to have passionate and knowledgeable instructors. This is why one of my main goals at Mathnasium is to share my passion for math with students and see them gain confidence in their abilities. One of my favourite things as an Instructor is to see a student finally understand something they were struggling with and say "Ohhh that makes so much more sense now!" Working at Mathnasium is extremely rewarding and I absolutely love the positive and welcoming environment here. I have been working with children for over 7 years and have taught French, physics and math to elementary-aged kids all the way to high schoolers in the past. Things I love besides math include sci-fi movies, drawing, listening to music and visiting Mexico:)

Aditi M.

Instructor

Hello, I am Aditi, pursuing the Business General course at Portage College. I have completed the Project Management – IT course from Seneca college in Toronto, Ontario. I did Bachelor of Technology in the field of IT from India in the year 2020. I was born and brought up in India. Having tutored in India previously, I have more than two years of experience. I've always enjoyed answering math questions and teaching others shortcuts to quickly and effectively solve math problems since I think math is a skill that everyone needs in life. That is what Mathnasium is all about - it teaches kids math the way it makes sense to them and easier to understand. Its one of the reason I chose Mathnasium so I can help students gain Math confidence that will help them in future. I am an Indian classical dancer and have a degree for Kathak dance from Khairagarh University in India. I love playing guitar, singing and writing poetry.

Bhumi P.

Instructor

Hi , I am Bhumi, I have pursued my study in master in physics. I am a passionate teacher focused on creating a positive environment in which students can learn and grow. With 6 years of teaching experience, I have understood mathematical concepts from basic arithmetic to advanced calculus. I believe math is the mother of all languages. At Mathnasium, I strive to inspire students with an appreciation for math and help develop the tools and methods that work best for each individual student. I am also fond of learning new things related to science. Other than teaching, sports is something which I'm passionate about. In my free time I enjoy listening music, watching movies- documentary.

Olga S.

Instructor

Hello, my name is Olga :) I have enjoyed math since a young age, and I have been working with kids for over 5 years. It always brings a smile to my face when they finally master a math concept, or get that one tricky question right. It is an honour to work at Mathnasium and see all the students grow and improve. I graduated high school with honours, but my favourite part was being the class historian speaker! In the future I hope to go into the science/medical field and continue working with kids, and helping people. My favourite thing to do in my free time is draw, sketch, or paint, I love art almost as much as I love math. I also enjoy reading and watching movies with my cat Mars

Hanz

Dela Cruz

Hello, my name is Hanz. I am in the process of pursuing my bachelor’s degree at the University of Calgary with a major in Statistics and a minor in economics. Growing up, I’ve always enjoyed learning about new mathematical concepts and telling my friends about how I used them during my day-to-day activities. Since then, I’ve used the knowledge I’ve learned from school and my personal time to tutor students from different backgrounds and help them build confidence in their mathematical abilities. At Mathnasium, I’ve been given the incredible opportunity to assist students in learning about math's and inspire students to learn about the extensive world of mathematics. After graduating from university, my dream is to pursue a master's degree in statistics, and hopefully develop products that help people using data science. During my free time, I enjoy reading, exercising, and meeting new people.

Saanvi P.

Instructor

Hi, I’m Saanvi! I’m currently in my final year at Henry Wise Wood High School, and I’m hoping to pursue Biochemistry in post-secondary education. Throughout high school, I've come to appreciate just how important it is to understand math, not just on the surface level, but the reasoning and concept behind it. Mathnasium gives me the opportunity to encourage all grade-levels to further their understanding. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, shopping, and meeting new people! :)

Our Mathnasium Mission

Teach children math so they understand it, master it, and love it. Math can change their lives, and they can change the world.

What I love about Mathnasium is the ability to teach problem-solving skills and make math make sense, while also making a student smile.
