About Elijah

Hello friends, my name is Elijah Willie, and I am currently a Bioinformatics developer at a startup called Fusion Genomics. We focus on creating molecular diagnostic tools for infectious diseases using next-generation sequencing. I studied bioinformatics and statistics at Simon Fraser University and subsequently did a master's in bioinformatics at the University of British Columbia (UBC). My time during my undergrad and master's studies cultivated my interest in data science as well as bioinformatics. I was a teaching assistant for the Masters of Data Science program at UBC for the duration of my masters. After that, I continued working with the team to create data science courses including programming for data science, data visualization, and machine learning. Besides bioinformatics and data science, I also have interests in extracurriculars such as soccer, gaming, chess, and traveling.

About the lesson

My two years of experience teaching, have led me to believe that students learn best by building on simple familiar concepts. I use real-world examples and build on simple ideas to motivate more complex ones. I believe that using examples helps drive critical thinking. I believe it’s important for educators to have a willingness to learn and be flexible to change. I am open to learning and integrating new teaching philosophies. I understand that as generations come and go, students will have different needs and respond to different philosophies of teaching. It’s important that we adapt our philosophies to facilitate these new needs, however, I believe that distilling complex ideas using real-world examples will continue to be a fundamental pedagogical strategy.

Perfect! Elijah has been tutoring my daughter for the past few months. He helps with math, physics and chemistry.
He has been very helpful, flexible and always comes prepared to the tutoring sessions. He makes sure that she thoroughly understands the concepts instead of rushing through to the lesson. My daughter’s confidence and grades have significantly improved.
Thank you Elijah for your support and help!

Perfect! Elijah is very knowledgable on the subject of statistics and saved me a lot of time and frustration with his advice. He is a very caring person and super easy to talk to, even if your knowledge on the subject isn't that great starting off.

I met Elijah during our Master's in Bioinformatics at UBC. Elijah was patient, brilliant and funny when explaining statistics and programming concepts to me during our first term. I honestly give Elijah my highest recommendation, and I will stress how rare it is to have the combination of being such an upbeat and knowledgeable teacher.

Elijah is a great tutor and breaks down complicated concepts in math, stats, chemistry, biology (especially genetics and biochem) so that I perform much better on my assessments and have greater confidence in the material. He’s patient, kind and has a great sense of humour that makes our sessions enjoyable, even over Zoom. Fully recommend him to anyone else!
