"She did for my daughter in a couple of weeks what we couldn't do in 9 months. She saved my daughter's course!"
"In one semester, Kristen identified where the learning gaps were and got her back on track. If your child is struggling in Math I would highly recommend giving Kristen a try."
Programs I work with
What Parents Are Saying
From failing to back on track — across programs, grade levels, and countries.
"Kristen is amazing! She did for my daughter in a couple of weeks what we couldn't do in 9 months. My daughter loves working with her. She saved my daughter's course!"
"My daughter was desperately struggling with Algebra to the point she was in danger of failing. In one semester, Kristen identified where the learning gaps were and got her back on track."
"Kristen is patient, kind and knowledgeable. My son absolutely loves her and looks forward to their calls. She has been able to fill in all of the gaps in my homeschooling."

Work Through It Together
Bring whatever your student is stuck on — a unit, an upcoming exam, a problem set, or just a subject that's going sideways. We'll figure it out.
"I'm not sure online tutoring will work for my kid."
If you've been searching for a math tutor near you, online might not be what you had in mind, but it usually works out better: no commute, no schedule built around who happens to live nearby, and sessions are live video calls — same dynamic as sitting at a kitchen table, minus the drive. I've been doing this online since 2021 and most skeptical students come around after the first session. Read what parents say.
"I want to ask a question before committing."
Totally fair. Email me at kristen@mindthegaptutoring.ca and I'll get back to you within one business day. No obligation, no sales pitch.
"I'm not sure you cover our program or subject."
If it's Math or Science at the middle school or high school level, there's a very good chance I can help — homeschool, public school, online school, worldschool, or anything else. Just ask. Need something outside Math and Science? Learn with Every Avenue is a searchable directory of independent educators across a much wider range of subjects.
1-on-1 Tutoring
Math and Science, any program, Grade 6 through 12 — plus first and second year university Chemistry.
Your Student. Your Pace. Your Questions.
Every session is built around what your student needs that day — not a preset lesson plan, not a curriculum to follow. Just the material in front of them and the time to actually work through it. Most students book the 55-minute session as their regular weekly slot.
What students bring to sessions
- A concept or unit they're stuck on
- An upcoming test or exam to prepare for
- A problem set or assignment to work through
- Questions from their course modules
- Nothing specific — just a subject they're falling behind in

Also Ontario's TVO-ILC Specialist
If your student is enrolled in TVO-ILC, there's dedicated support for every stage of the process.
5+ Years Navigating ILC With Families
TVO-ILC courses are self-paced, which sounds great until a student goes three weeks without opening the course and suddenly faces a timeout. I know the platform, the common sticking points, and how to keep students moving toward completion before deadlines hit.
Whether you're enrolling for the first time or your student is already behind — there's a service for exactly where you are.
