Real results from AP Chemistry students across Toronto & Greater Toronto Area
We've been using Hack Your Course since Year 1 for Math, Chemistry, and Physics, and continued into Year 2 because of the great results. The tutors are professional, organized, and understand the curriculum well. Amy has been especially helpful with Chemistry—clear explanations, consistent updates, and a calm, focused approach that works really well for our son.
I want to start off this review with saying thank you for everything Peter. He tutored me for 3 years, starting from grade 11 chemistry to finishing general chemistry in my first year of university. Peter was always attentive, willing to push me as a student to be the best version of myself, and always wanted the best for me during every session. Every concept I reviewed with Peter, I always felt confident on, and the grades during the tests reflected that.
Throughout this journey, I've not only learned new things, but I've also realized the importance of self-improvement, patience, and consistent study. I'm so grateful for Mr. Parsa's contributions. This course will hold a special place in my life, both for its knowledge and motivation.
My tutor helped me tremendously throughout the program to understand the concepts and try exam-style questions. A big help for reaching my goals.
Words cannot express how grateful I am to have Peter as my Chemistry tutor. When focusing purely on results, Peter brought my Chemistry mark from failing to exceptional over the course of these two years. However, what is more important than results is how he helps me learn. On top of his professionalism that ensures I understand all the required content, his humorous and lighthearted attitude makes classes much more engaging, which in turn helps me absorb the information taught.
Before starting tutoring, I was really struggling with Chemistry and lacked confidence going into my final exam. In just a month, my tutor completely turned things around for me. He broke down complex concepts in a way that made sense and patiently helped me rebuild my understanding from the ground up. His teaching style is clear, supportive, and focused—within a few sessions, I started feeling much more confident in my abilities.
Peter Legzdins is an excellent tutor with a thoroughgoing knowledge of chemistry that can satiate any student looking to develop their understanding of it. That Peter managed to improve my proficiency in chemistry might well be a miracle.
I highly recommend Masoud and Hack Your Course tutoring services. Masoud responds quickly and is very professional in finding the right tutors to match our needs. Thanks to HYC tutors, my son has made great improvements in his Chemistry and Math courses. Will continue with HYC tutoring services next school year.
Awesome service. Definitely can send you a strong and knowledgeable tutor. Great help!
HYC was amazing and totally saved our senior's final year. She was reluctant to even get a tutor, but HYC hooked her up with one that was a great match for her personality, and helped her feel WAAAAAAAAY more confident with the material. They were responsive, available, and excellent. My only regret is not getting an HYC tutor earlier!
Great tutors for every subject! They are flexible and are motivated to make sure you understand the material
Peter has been an amazing tutor for Chemistry. Without him, I would have greatly struggled with the course and not achieved the level of success that I have in the course. With his help in chemistry, I have been able to get acceptance into UBC Sciences as well as U of T Sciences. Peter has been an amazing tutor to work with, being friendly, funny, and knowledgeable.
My Daughter has been using the Platform to attend Maths and Chemistry Classes for Grade 11 for last one year and has been very satisfied. She has found the quality of Tutors to be on the same level as her School Teachers. The thing she found really attractive was that the tutors already knew the syllabus and the topics to cover for the grade level.
I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a AP tutor. The manager is professional. He takes his time to explain. They have very experienced AP tutors to help you do well in exams.
Our family is very happy with the Chemistry tutoring we've had since January of 2023. We in fact recommended our tutor to another student who is a friend of my son. Additionally we are looking at adding a math tutoring session. Highly recommend this service if you want less stress in your household and results.
We had an amazing experience, teachers are very competent and genuinely interested in the success of the student!
Our daughter's confidence and grades have improved considerably since she has been working with her tutor. Amy has made a real connection with our daughter, understanding her strengths and weaknesses and targeting the lessons accordingly. We feel very fortunate to have found Amy through HYC!
My son has been using Hack Your Course AP Tutoring Service for over a year tutoring him 3 high school courses, he is very happy with the services and the results. The tutors are great, very knowledgeable on what they teach, and flexible for schedule change if need to.
I had Peter Legzdins as a Chemistry tutor, he is very patient and thought through when explaining unfamiliar concepts, and provides great analogies. He takes a intuitive approach to explaining how concepts work to make sure you understand and remember things in the long run.
I am more than happy to write a review for Peter helping me with Chemistry! His knowledge of the subject is truly remarkable, and he is able to convey complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand. He is helping me to improve my grades in Chemistry and I hope to get improved grades in my AP final exam.
Hack your course tutoring provide great service with each class follow up to ensure the tutoring quality. Our son is taking AP and we find the tutor is very knowledgeable.
Both Masoud and the tutors are great! Masoud takes extra care to ensure that there is a good match between your child and the tutor. The tutors are all very intelligent and capable and are always well-prepared and teach the child on how to achieve success and don't just give them the answers. Thank You HYC!
I had a very good experience with this company. My daughter needed tutors for Math and chemistry. The tutors were supportive and experienced, always prepared for the sessions. With their help my daughter gained understanding and confidence in these subjects and improved her marks.
I highly recommend the Hack Your Course AP Tutoring Service. They are super professional and very responsive. They have a great network of tutors and take great interest and care in matching tutors to specific challenges within different study fields, levels and concepts.
We have been very impressed with the services provided by HYC Tutoring service. Our tutor, Parsa A., has been exceptional – very knowledgeable, patient and supportive. He knows his stuff and more importantly, he has been able to increase the confidence, knowledge and understanding of the material with our students. I highly recommend this company.
HYC has worked very well for our family. Saloni has been an exceptional tutor. She has built a great relationship with my children but is firm with them and they really wants to see them do well.
