Harold's Journey: From Struggling Student to Math Enthusiast
Harold's lifelong passion for math and science ignited at a young age. However, he faced challenges with self-confidence throughout his academic journey, resulting in disenchantment with school, and his performance struggled until the 11th grade. It was at this critical juncture that Harold received private tutoring in math and science, sparking a transformative shift in his attitude toward academics. This transformation boosted his self-confidence and rekindled his passion for math and science, ultimately earning him honors in high school and acceptance into the faculty of engineering at the University of Alberta.
While pursuing his Mechanical Engineering degree, which he proudly earned in 2015, Harold devoted himself to tutoring students from grades 7 to 12 in mathematics and science, a pursuit that ignited a newfound passion for teaching.
During his university years, Harold's love for teaching continued to grow, and he found himself increasingly drawn to it. After a successful stint as a project engineer, Harold decided to pivot his career towards personal training. This decision seamlessly blended his passion for teaching, his fascination with fitness, his entrepreneurial spirit, and his profound understanding of science.
After establishing himself as a highly successful personal trainer, Harold's heart yearned to return to his original inspiration: math instruction. Armed with the proven Mathnasium Method, Harold aspires to make a difference in the lives of children, just as math did for him. Harold is now on a mission to inspire young minds and change their lives through the power of math.
