Grade 11 Tutoring & University Preparation

Master advanced Math, Science, and Coding with contest preparation to build a strong pathway into Grade 12 and university admissions.

Why Grade 11 Is Important


Grade 11 bridges foundational learning to pre-university mastery. Performance in this year sets the tone for Grade 12 success and scholarship opportunities.

Advanced Thinking

Strengthen abstract reasoning in Math, Physics, and Chemistry — vital for higher education STEM pathways.

Contest Preparation

Fermat (Math), Avogadro (Chemistry), and CCC Junior/Senior (Computing) help students gain recognition and distinction.

University Readiness

Strong Grade 11 transcripts and contest participation boost university portfolios for Waterloo, UofT, McGill, MIT, and beyond.

Canadian Intermediate & Senior Math Contests (CIMC & CSMC)

Unlike Pascal, Cayley, and Fermat, which are multiple-choice contests, the CIMC and CSMC are proof-based contests. Students must explain their reasoning clearly.

  • ➤ Intermediate: Grades 9–11
  • ➤ Senior: Grades 12 or advanced Grade 11 students
  • ➤ Pathway to national training and Olympiads (COMC → CMO).
  • ➤ Excellent preparation for rigorous university STEM programs.

Avogadro Chemistry Contest Logo

Avogadro Chemistry Exam (Grade 11)

The Avogadro Exam, hosted by Waterloo, aligns closely with first-year university chemistry. High scorers gain distinction and are recognized by Canadian universities for STEM readiness.

  • ➤ Covers advanced chemistry curriculum
  • ➤ Strong predictor of university-level performance
  • ➤ Opens doors to STEM scholarships

Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge Logo

Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge (COMC)

The COMC is one of Canada’s most prestigious national math contests, open to students in Grade 11 and 12. Unlike multiple-choice contests, COMC requires students to provide full written solutions, testing both mathematical creativity and clarity of explanation.

  • ➤ Top scorers qualify for the Canadian Mathematical Olympiad (CMO).
  • ➤ The CMO is Canada’s pathway to the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).
  • ➤ Results are highly valued in university applications and scholarships.
