At Raise My Marks, we believe that every student has the potential to excel in mathematics. Founded in Ottawa originally by Lani and Mike, our mission was to transform the way students perceive and engage with math. We understood that math can be challenging, and our goal was to make it accessible, less of a chore, and ultimately rewarding. Originally this was through in person tutoring. With the help of Covid-19, it then became online tutoring. Eventually tutoring one on one came to a close. However, the worksheets and video tutorials that were created during this time continued to live on!
Now Raise My Marks, maintained by Lani, is first a platform that offers a holistic approach to math education, combining practice worksheets and instructional videos. And if needed, personalized tutoring sessions. We cater to high school students across Canada, including those in Ontario’s and Canada’s grade 11 and grade 12 courses, as well as IB and AP math students.
What sets us apart is our emphasis on fostering a growth mindset. We encourage students to embrace mistakes as opportunities for learning and growth. By building resilience and confidence, we help students overcome math anxiety and achieve their academic goals. We try to understand how the student is feeling, understanding, and interpreting the material. We try to provide them with tools and skills in problem solving, time management, self learning and more that can be used beyond a math class.
Whether the goal is to improve grades, prepare for exams, or simply gain a more solid understanding of math concepts, Raise My Marks is here to support your journey. Math is for everyone. It’s really not that hard!
