Oakville Uptown Core
Tutoring

Hi! My name is Raadhika, and this is my story.

As a child, I struggled to understand how to get high grades. I saw my parents trying multiple strategies and seeking guidance from my teachers, but I couldn’t quite understand how to help myself. All I knew was that I had to try my hardest to fix something, but I didn’t know what needed to be fixed. Neither did my parents - but that didn’t stop them.

I also knew that my brother was able to learn very quickly. He could read new information and immediately be able to connect with others about his learning. He also received high grades in school, which increased his self-esteem and confidence. He needed his academics to be adjusted to his learning style and pace, just like I did, but in a very different way.

I observed how my parents approached my brother and me with our academics. We are two children from the same family, yet we learn, process, and succeed in completely different ways.

I know plenty of families struggle with this challenge. I can also understand how this challenge could create hardship for the parents of these children.

That’s why I chose this role at Oxford Learning. I now have resources that allow me to learn information that helps identify why children cannot learn or process information in a socially accepted way. I know that my parents would have been comforted in knowing how my mind worked and that there wasn’t something “wrong” with me. They would have found comfort in their new knowledge, and they would have been able to approach me with strategies and support because they would receive them for themselves.

My mission is to bring families together by discovering the challenges their children are facing. When your child completes an assessment at our centre, we can help identify factors that make it hard for your child to learn or that make them feel nervous about their abilities. After learning about these factors, we communicate with you (the parent) and use this information to create a happy learning experience for your child.

Before choosing this role, I taught in the public school system after earning my undergraduate degree in Business and Society and my postgraduate degree in Primary Education Studies.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Biology and a Master's in Business Administration from the University of Toronto. I also teach Math and Biology at our centre.

My family immigrated to Canada when I was ten years old, and from a young age, my parents instilled in me the value of education. I am looking forward to working with Raadhika to build confidence and motivation in the students here at our center and ensure their success.  

As a Centre Director, I also aim to grow the impact of our centre by prioritizing the education of all our students and the customer experience of all our parent customers.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Human Biology and Cell and Molecular Biology, and I am currently advancing my career in health informatics.

At Oxford Learning Centre, I assist students in English and science, particularly biology and chemistry. With extensive tutoring experience, I take pride in connecting with students of all ages and helping them achieve their educational goals. In addition to tutoring, I provide support with administrative tasks to help maintain a smooth learning environment.

In my role, I strive to create a supportive and engaging environment where students feel empowered to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. 

I hold a Master's degree in Physics. Prior to joining our Oxford Learning team, I was a math and physics teacher at a high school. I also had practical industrial experience using my education in physics. After retiring as a high school teacher, I joined Oxford Learning to continue my passion for teaching and to guide students of all ages.

I provide a practical and focused introduction to math concepts, covering fundamental analysis and application throughout the lesson. My lessons focus more on "why" which is always followed by helping students to develop a deep, generalized understanding of math and physics concepts. I use strong communication skills to share this knowledge and motivate and instruct students to make math subjects more enjoyable. Students learn how new math concepts are connected to what they have already learned.

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Chloé! I am the French teacher here at Oxford Learning Uptown Core! I have loved francophone culture ever since I was little since it is my first language, and I am still fluent in it. I attended a francophone elementary and high school here in Ontario and I am currently finishing my degree in the FSL concurrent education program at York University's bilingual campus named Collège Glendon. I have completed my undergraduate studies, majoring in French with a minor in psychology. I have always loved expressing myself in French and seeing students at Oxford Learning do the same brings me so much joy. I strive to work with students to improve their confidence in reading as well as oral and written French.  

Hello, I’m Shahroz, and I’m thrilled to be part of the Oxford Learning family, where I teach Chemistry to Grade 11 and 12 students. I hold a Bachelor's in Biochemistry and Religion studies from the University of Toronto, and I’m fascinated by how I can teach Chemistry in simpler terms, using relatable, real-life examples that make the subject click for students. At our Centre, my goal is to make complex topics approachable and help students see the beauty of science beyond the textbook. Fun fact: I’m a huge fan of true crime podcasts. I’m excited to work with our students and families to make learning chemistry an engaging and rewarding adventure!

Hello, my name is Diana. 

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Arts with a minor in Psychology and Philosophy, as well as a Postgraduate Diploma in Advertising and Public Relations. Currently, I teach English and math at Oxford Learning Uptown Core.

My career began as a tutor, working with students from Kindergarten through middle school. I then transitioned into a rewarding career in Advertising, where I gained valuable experience. Today, life has brought me back to teaching, a path I truly love.

As a parent, I take great pride in watching my own children work hard and succeed, and I bring that same joy and dedication to my work with students here at Oxford Learning. My goal is to build each child’s confidence, enhance their learning skills, and support their academic success.
