The simple answer is: grade 10, 11, 12 and university students who maintain an Honours Level of scholastic achievement at their respective high schools and universities.
But if I could generalize they're smart, ambitious young people who are looking for a flexible part-time job that pays well, and we do, well above the typical wage paid to people their age. Almost as importantly, in this age of highly competitive admissions criteria for university applicants, they're looking for opportunities to build their personal skills and resumé.
Here's what one of our tutors wrote as part of a submission to admissions at the Ivey Business School at the University of Western Ontario:
“This experience has been rewarding and has positively impacted my life. Witnessing children overcome challenges inspires me to excel academically. To be an effective tutor, you must dedicate yourself fully to each child during sessions. This role has helped me grow; prior to starting in grade 11, I focused mainly on sports but discovered my passion for helping others through mentoring. It allows me to make a difference while earning money, truly a dream job. The requirement to maintain honour roll status motivates me to improve academically, raising my average from 75 to 90. I still engage in sports, but my commitment to tutoring has made me more versatile and accomplished.”
