About Me
My name is Gardy and I am a Psychology/Biochemistry student at the University of Ottawa and a future Med school candidate. I started tutoring 2 years ago when I was helping my classmates with their school work. They told me I was very good at explaining concepts and I noticed I really enjoyed teaching.
My strategy depends a lot on the subject of the tutoring but in general, it is very dialog oriented. I believe that long term consolidation of knowledge has to be done through deep understanding of the concepts. I achieve that with practical exercise and discussions. Memorization might be sufficient to pass exams but this knowledge is lost quite rapidly. To turn students into the professionals they are going to be, we have to set some solid bases and build on top of them.
I can provide many tools such as videos, schemes, articles, interactive activities to help with the concepts that are more complex.

Description:
I am also a tutor at the Peer Help center at the University of Ottawa. It is a program that refers students who struggle with a specific course to students who did well on that course. I offer tutoring on there for many of the classes I took such as Organic chemistry 2, Intro to Psychology, Intro to Biochemistry and Statistics
