What courses do you tutor?

I specialize in high school precalculus. I’ve also worked with younger students (as early as Grade 6), first-year university students (depending on the course outline), and adults who are upgrading their math skills.

Do you offer in-person lessons?

I have limited openings for students who would like to come to my location near Lougheed Mall in Burnaby.

Do you offer online lessons?

Most of my students work with me online. I use tools that make it easy for us to share and see each other’s work in real time, so students can show their thinking and get feedback right away. It works smoothly for most learners.

What is your availability?

During the school year, I am available Sunday–Thursday. During school holidays, I am available Monday–Thursday.

Do you offer group lessons?

Yes, but students must form their own group. You can find all the details on the group lesson FAQ page at https://claratong.com/group-lessons/

What is the cost of tutoring?

One-to-one lessons are $100 per hour. Shared lessons (two students) are $120 per hour. See https://claratong.com/group-lessons/ for more group options.

How do we get started?

Step 1: Send a message to share what you’re looking for in tutoring. Let me know if you’re interested in one-on-one tutoring or forming a group. Step 2: Free consultation — we’ll discuss your goals and create a learning plan. Step 3: Trial session — your child gets to experience my teaching style, no obligation. Step 4: If it’s a good fit, we’ll set up a regular schedule for ongoing support.

Math Check-In: Is “Proficient” Good Enough? Discover What Your Child’s New Report Card Really Means

Discover how the new math proficiency grading system affects your student’s education and learn how to support their learning journey. Sign up for a free quiz and consultation to assess your student’s math skills.

BC’s new grading system hides critical learning gaps.

No clear letter grades. Just just vague “proficient” labels
Students seem fine on paper while math foundations crumble
Parents can’t tell when their child is actually struggling

Don’t wait until it’s too late.

I’ve spent over a decade tutoring students through BC’s education changes. The new system makes it harder than ever for parents to spot problems early.

Take action today: Choose your child’s grade level below and complete a diagnostic quiz. These reveal tell-tale signs of math gaps, even when grades show “proficient” or the percentage seems fine.

Each quiz includes detailed answer keys explaining common mistakes and what they mean for your child’s learning. After completing the quiz, you can schedule a free consultation to discuss results and next steps for your family’s educational needs.
