Steven taught about 1 month ago
Steven and Sangeetha engaged in a collaborative effort to design a database schema. Their discussion centered on crucial aspects such as table relationships, naming conventions, and effective strategies for managing null values within company targets, financials, ownership, and scope emissions data. For their upcoming lesson, Sangeetha will visually map out the database schema, and they've arranged a subsequent meeting to continue refining the design and consider alternative names.

Steven and a learner delved into database design during a recent lesson, concentrating on structuring tables for company targets and environmental framework references. They thoroughly explored data types, constraints, and primary/foreign key relationships to ensure data integrity and facilitate querying. The learner, a student at Springfield University, was then assigned the task of restructuring existing tables to incorporate the 'firm year' table concept and separate company targets into individual tables.

Steven and Sangeetha collaborated on a database schema design, specifically working on the creation of tables for firms, verification statuses, sectors, and peer groups. They meticulously defined primary and foreign keys to establish robust relationships among these tables. To prepare for their upcoming lesson, Sangeetha was assigned the task of applying the discussed database principles to smaller data segments.

Steven and Sangeetha explored database fundamentals, covering essential topics like CRUD operations, table relationships, and data integrity. Their discussion then moved to analyzing a dataset from the TSX stock market, where they focused on identifying key entities for table creation and discussing data validation strategies. For their next lesson, Sangeetha was tasked with outlining potential tables and columns for this database design.

Subashree taught Stella 3 months ago
Subashree Krishnan assisted a learner in troubleshooting technical issues with their new MacBook Pro, specifically focusing on locating the 'Pages' application. The individual, who resides in Austin, explained their preference for in-person assistance and their plan to return to the store for support. They discussed potential solutions and strategies for adapting to the new system, but the learner ultimately decided to revert to their previous Windows-based laptop.

Steven taught Saira 3 months ago
Steven and S A collaboratively reviewed a database design for a dance studio, uncovering several issues related to normalization, data integrity, and the relationships between tables. Steven subsequently provided actionable recommendations for refining the database structure, which included creating new tables, utilizing auto-numbered primary keys, and integrating lookup wizards. S A intends to discuss this feedback with her group and may schedule another lesson to address any further questions.

Computer science in Canada for tech-focused learners
Where education meets career goals
Computer science is one of the most in-demand fields in Canada, and the need for skilled graduates continues to grow. Whether you're enrolled in a CS program at university or reskilling as an adult learner, understanding how computer science connects to the job market can help you stay focused and competitive. Many students across Canada seek tutoring not just to improve grades, but to build career-aligned skills that matter after graduation.
Computer science is competitive and the hiring bar keeps rising
Canada’s tech industry is hiring. Roles in software engineering, machine learning, data science, DevOps, and full-stack development are growing steadily in cities like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Calgary. Employers are looking for candidates with more than just academic knowledge. They want people who can solve real problems, write clean code, and work with production tools.
Universities like Waterloo, UBC, and the University of Toronto offer rigorous computer science programs, but many students find the pace intense and the expectations high. Algorithms, object-oriented design, database management, and systems programming are foundational, but they’re also areas where many students struggle. Tutoring gives learners a chance to strengthen their core skills while connecting what they’re learning to how it’s used in the real world.
From course projects to coding interviews
One of the biggest transitions for students is going from school assignments to coding interviews. What earns a pass in a university course might not be enough to succeed in a job interview. Many employers in Canada now assess candidates with technical challenges involving data structures, recursion, or logic puzzles. Even internships at companies like Shopify, Wealthsimple, or Telus Digital involve multiple rounds of assessment.
Tutoring classes often help students bridge this gap. You can revisit foundational topics like hash maps, trees, or sorting algorithms in depth. You can also practice timed problems, review real interview formats, or get support building personal projects that go beyond classwork. This is especially valuable for students in second or third year who are preparing for co-op programs or their first full-time role.
Learning beyond the classroom
Many students in CS programs get through midterms and finals with decent grades but still feel unsure when they sit down to build something from scratch. Others are career changers who are learning computer science through online programs or part-time degrees at schools like Athabasca University or Concordia’s School of Continuing Education.
Whether you're tackling operating systems at McGill, building a portfolio at Ryerson (TMU), or self-studying after work in Saskatoon, tutoring can offer structure, accountability, and technical depth. It helps you move from understanding to application, which is exactly what the job market demands.
