Maria
Lead Instructor
Hello! I'm Maria, a mathematics enthusiast currently pursuing a degree in Mathematics and Statistics. I've been with Mathnasium of Oakville since early 2023, and over the past years, I’ve found immense joy in connecting with students and helping them discover their passion for math.
For me, math is more than just numbers—it's about fostering a mindset that sees mathematics as a tool for growth and understanding the world. I strongly believe, as Galileo Galilei once said, "The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics." My goal is to empower students by showing them the beauty and real-world applications of math, while encouraging them to push their limits and reach new heights on their mathematical journey.
Let’s explore the fascinating world of mathematics together!

At Mathnasium of Oakville, I’m passionate about turning “I’ll never get this” moments into “Wow, that was easy!” breakthroughs. Watching students build confidence and have fun with math is what makes this role so rewarding.
And here’s a little math joke to brighten your day:
Why was the math book so confident?
Because it had all the answers, just like we’ll help your student have!
