About Roman
Are you ready to conquer math and open doors to your dream career? As a passionate second-generation mathematics teacher with over 25 years of experience, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
With a PhD degree from Queen’s University and a Certificate in University Teaching from the University of Waterloo, I bring a wealth of knowledge from two of Canada's top institutions. My teaching journey spans prestigious universities like Queen’s, Waterloo, and Dalhousie, where I've honed a patient and supportive approach that makes math both accessible and enjoyable.
Here's what you can expect:
- Personalized lessons tailored to your unique learning style.
- A focus on building a strong foundation for university-level math.
- Strategies to excel in first-year courses, crucial for careers in medicine, engineering, and more.
Many students use AI to get the right answers, but they fail the exam because they don't understand the 'Why.' I specialize in 'Conceptual Intuition'—teaching you how to derive the solution when you don't have a screen in front of you.
Don't let math be a barrier to your aspirations. Let's work together to ensure you have the skills and confidence to succeed. Book your lesson today and take the first step towards mastering mathematics!
I am not a human search engine. I am a performance coach. I provide the structure, the customized study plan, and the high-level accountability that an app cannot offer.

Perfect! Roman helped me through my first year university calculus course which focused primarily on integration. He’s flexible, always on time for lessons and comes prepared with thorough examples/solutions of the lesson materials. Roman is always ready to answer questions or clarify anything if needed. I would definitely recommend Roman for other calculus students.
- Everything went quite well, Delaney needs to review some of the material on trig. functionsRoman's response :

Roman is a reliable, and very knowledgeable math instructor. He helped my 17 year old bring up their grades from mid-way through the year. They found him very helpful, and easy to talk to.
Roman is an excellent educator and his breadth of knowledge was both very reassuring and extremely helpful, especially receiving help at the Masters level. He is clear, efficient, provides visuals to aid with more abstract topics and even went out of his way to provide extra material. Roman is passionate about his work and about helping students better grasp any math topic. Could not recommend him enough!
Roman has tutored my son for a full semester of grade 10 math so far and has proven to be an extremely knowledgeable and effective teacher and mentor.
Roman truly knows his maths and can really connect with my son to get right down to what is needed in the time they have together.Our 15yo son has been taking math lessons with Roman since June 2023. We have an amazing progress with our son, when his grades originally in low 60th, currently stand on 80th to 100th!
Our son got a huge boost to his self-esteem. He now knows that he can do great if he put in an effort. All this is thanks to a patient and very professional guidance and tutoring of Roman. Honestly saying, I never expected such a big improvement in my son's math skills.
Thank you, Roman!
We will refer people to you in each occasion.
️I highly recommend Dr. Smirnov. He aided me with mathematics while I was in Junior High. To begin with, he has helped me with Algebra, more specifically many types of functions. Moreover, he increased my understanding of quadratic functions, inequalities, and exponential functions. In conclusion, I endorse this tutor for helping me understand these mathematical equations. - Andrew
I had the pleasure of being tutored by Dr. Roman Smirnov throughout my high school years at King's-Edgehill School and Accelus Academy and into my first year of university at Dalhousie. I cannot express enough gratitude for the invaluable support and guidance I received.
As a teenager navigating the complexities of high school mathematics, I often found myself struggling to grasp certain concepts and keep up with the pace of the curriculum. However, under Dr. Smirnov's tutelage, I not only improved my understanding of mathematics but also developed a newfound confidence in my abilities. His exceptional ability to explain high school algebra and first-year calculus made seemingly challenging topics appear easy to comprehend.
Dr. Smirnov's patient and supportive teaching style created a conducive learning environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and seeking clarification. His dedication to his students' success is evident in his personalized approach to tutoring, tailoring lessons to address my specific needs and learning style.
I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Smirnov to anyone seeking expert mathematics tutoring. His expertise, commitment, and passion for teaching make him an outstanding educator, and I am grateful for the positive impact he has had on my academic journey.View more recommendations
