What a biology tutoring session looks like.
Sessions run 50 minutes and look a little different for every student, since our tutors work with each one to find what suits them best. For biology, this typically means practicing terms, definitions, and diagrams. The goal is always the same: being able to explain how a biological system actually works, not just recall its parts.
Online or in person, whatever works best.
We usually suggest students try online tutoring first, since it's easier to schedule. You'll get a recording of the session and a PDF of the notes. If you don't have a quiet workspace at home or access to a computer, in-person tends to work better. We can meet at a coffee shop, at school, or at home.

What students say.
"My daughter is in first year engineering and was struggling with matrix algebra. On her behalf, I contacted Heywood Academies. Matt got back to me right away and set my daughter up with an excellent, friendly tutor and her marks have improved significantly. Thanks to Heywood Academies, both my and my daughter’s stress levels have come down."
"I started tutoring with Matt because I was struggling with my first year Physics and Calculus courses at UVic. I had tried a couple of other tutors before Matt, but Matt was by far the most patient and intelligent. He ended up getting me through all of my Calculus levels and Matrix Algebra. I cannot recommend him enough."
"Super easy to communicate and schedule with, and the tutoring really helped with the final push through Physics 11."
"We have tried a few tutors over the years and none have been overly helpful. As much as they are smart the tutoring quickly became boring and tiresome. Matt has a great business here. It is efficient and organzied. He matched our daughter with a great tutor who is young and teaches in a way that makes sense to her. He was able to match us quickly with someone to come to the house. We highly recommend."
