Eileen

Lead Instructor

Eileen is completing a B.Sc. in Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University and enjoys teaching as much as studying higher-level math. Earlier experience coaching youth swim teams shaped her encouraging, step-by-step style. 

She loves seeing skills grow over time in a welcoming environment. Her favourite math joke: Why was 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9!

Maria

Lead Instructor

Hello! I'm Maria, a mathematics enthusiast currently pursuing a degree in Mathematics and Statistics. I've been with Mathnasium of Oakville since early 2023, and over the past years, I’ve found immense joy in connecting with students and helping them discover their passion for math.

For me, math is more than just numbers—it's about fostering a mindset that sees mathematics as a tool for growth and understanding the world. I strongly believe, as Galileo Galilei once said, "The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics." My goal is to empower students by showing them the beauty and real-world applications of math, while encouraging them to push their limits and reach new heights on their mathematical journey.

Let’s explore the fascinating world of mathematics together!

Nuha

Instructors

My name is Nuha, and I’m currently pursuing a degree in Nanotech and Microsystems Engineering at McMaster University. With almost four years of experience teaching math, I’m passionate about both math and teaching because I strive to be the support I needed during my own academic challenges.

I love working at Mathnasium because of the close-knit, supportive team we have and our shared passion for teaching. Helping students overcome challenges and build confidence is what makes this role so rewarding.

Why did the math teacher break up with the calculator? Because it couldn't count on it anymore!

Shawn

Instructor

I’m a Computer Science and Statistics double major at the University of Toronto Mississauga with over two years of experience helping students conquer math. At Mathnasium of Oakville, I love turning "I’ll never get this" into "Wow, that was easy!" moments. Watching students grow their confidence while having fun with math is what makes this job so rewarding.

Why was the math book so confident? Because it had all the answers—just like we’ll help your student have in math.

Our Mathnasium Mission

Teach children math so they understand it, master it, and love it. Math can change their lives, and they can change the world.
