About Catherine

With over 15 years of experience tutoring students from high school through university, I have developed strong expertise in conveying complex concepts and effective learning strategies. I spent five years as a Teaching Associate at the University of Toronto, followed by two years as a guest lecturer. I hold a BSc in Biochemistry and Neuroscience and a PhD in Cell and Systems Biology—both from the University of Toronto—and completed postdoctoral research in the Department of Genetics and Genome Biology at SickKids Hospital. Additionally, I have five years of industry experience managing operations in an analytical chemistry laboratory.

About the lesson

As a tutor, I take a student-centered, results-driven approach tailored to individual learning styles and academic goals. My methodology combines structured lesson planning with adaptive teaching techniques to build both subject mastery and long-term learning confidence. I focus on conceptual clarity, step-by-step problem-solving, and applied understanding. I use visual aids, real-world analogies, and practice-based reinforcement to deepen retention. Typical Lesson Plan: A brief review of previous content or homework Introduction of new concepts with guided instruction Interactive problem-solving or application-based exercises Immediate feedback and discussion to address gaps or misconceptions A brief recap and assignment of targeted practice tasks Lessons are customized based on the student's curriculum, exam schedule, and performance metrics. What Sets Me Apart: My strength lies in my ability to demystify complex concepts and adjust delivery to match the learner’s pace and background. With a strong academic foundation in the sciences and experience mentoring diverse learners, I bring both technical expertise and empathetic communication. I also coach students on study strategies, test-taking techniques, and scientific writing when relevant.

I highly recommend Dr. CATHERINE DEANE. She tutored my son in first-year university biology, improving his final grade by 20% compared to his mid-term.
Whether a student is struggling to grasp foundational concepts or seeking to excel in advanced coursework, Dr. CATHERINE DEANE provides the guidance, support, and insight needed to achieve academic goals. She is professional, reliable, and highly respected by both her students and colleagues.

I recommend her without reservation for any student seeking high-quality, results-oriented tutoring in math, chemistry, biology, or general science.
