Academic Success Through Peer Mentorship
French Immersion and General Studies tutoring by a designated Gifted Learner. Helping Calgary students master concepts, not just memorize answers.
I’m Devin Lavoie, a Grade 10 student at Western Canada High School with more than ten years of French language experience. As a bilingual learner, I value supporting others in both English and French. I am also a gifted learner, which has helped me develop advanced problem-solving skills and a deep curiosity for challenging subjects. I have strong academic interests in math and science, and I’m committed to creating a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence. My goal as a tutor is to provide patient, reliable guidance that helps students understand challenging concepts and achieve their personal best.
