My time with Arjoon for Math AA HL has been amazing so far. He is really patient, explains the topics deeply and thoroughly, but also with clarity. The practice problems and practice test that he has given me has helped me with future tests that I have. Overall this platform and the specific tutor I have is amazing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this truly outstanding 5-star review! We are incredibly proud to have Arjoon as part of our professional tutoring team, and your feedback perfectly captures the high standard of service we are committed to.
Your specific words—"patient," "explains the topics deeply and thoroughly, but also with clarity"—are exactly what we strive for. This positive experience isn't just a fortunate 'good fit,' although that is certainly important. It is the direct and intended result of the evidence-based principles and systematic frameworks that Hack Your Course AP and IB Tutoring is built upon.
What you are experiencing with Arjoon is our core philosophy in action.
When you highlight Arjoon's patience and clarity, you are touching on a foundational tenet of our service: psychological safety. We draw heavily from academic and organizational research, such as Google's Project Aristotle , which proved that individuals perform best when they feel safe to take interpersonal risks—like admitting they are lost, asking a question that might sound "dumb," or challenging a concept.
Our tutors are not just hired for their expertise; they are trained to be elite coaches who understand this principle. They are taught to move beyond a "know-it-all" mindset and embrace a "learn-it-all" culture. They foster an environment where the student can safely be vulnerable, which is the only way to achieve deep, foundational learning, especially in a course as complex as IB Math AA HL.
Furthermore, when you mention the "practice problems and practice test" that have helped you, you are seeing our commitment to measurable, evidence-based results. We believe in what researchers call "deliberate practice". It is not enough to simply talk about a topic; mastery comes from applying knowledge in challenging, exam-like scenarios. Our entire system is designed to identify the 20% of efforts that will produce 80% of the outcomes. For IB Math, this means a relentless focus on high-quality, targeted practice that builds real, testable confidence for the future. Our tutors are trained to be partners in "delivering results," not just companions in "studying".
Finally, you wrote, "Overall this platform and the specific tutor I have is amazing." This is perhaps the most important piece of feedback for us. We have worked for over a decade to build more than just a "tutor-matching service." We have built a professional "operating system" for academic excellence. This system includes our rigorous selection of tutors, our evidence-based training in communication and goal-setting , and our focus on "Commander's Intent". We provide our tutors with a clear mission (the student's mastery and success) and then empower them with the autonomy and support needed to achieve that mission.
The IB curriculum is one of the most demanding and rewarding academic programs in the world. Our entire system is specifically designed to meet that high bar. We are so proud to be setting this standard of excellence for IB tutoring in Toronto. Our goal is to be the most trusted, effective, and professional partner for IB and AP families in Toronto and across North America.
Thank you again for putting your trust in Hack Your Course AP and IB Tutoring and for sharing your success story. We will be sure to celebrate this wonderful feedback with Arjoon. We look forward to continuing to support your academic journey!
