Why it goes wrong

The senior sciences are taken by code, and the prerequisites are strict

Ontario senior science runs by course code, and the prerequisite chain is unforgiving. Grade 11 university-preparation biology, chemistry and physics each assume specific Grade 10 content, and Grade 12 assumes Grade 11. A student who scraped through one year meets the consequence in the next, usually in the first unit.

Grade 9 science is now de-streamed in Ontario, a single course, SNC1W, spanning biology, chemistry, physics and earth and space science, which widens the range of readiness inside one class in exactly the way de-streamed mathematics does. The gaps that leaves are individual rather than predictable, so the first job is diagnosis rather than revision.

What we cover

Science across every grade group in Canada

Tutors start from a diagnostic in the free trial, then teach what your child’s class is covering now. Examinations supported: Grade 11 and 12 university-preparation science course marks.

What parents tell us

The real problem is rarely more practice

"He passed Grade 11 chemistry and is drowning in Grade 12."

The prerequisite chain is strict and the gaps carry forward. The trial class identifies which Grade 11 units did not land rather than re-teaching the Grade 12 unit more slowly.

"Her Grade 12 science marks decide her offers."

They do, and the first-term unit is often the one that sets the average. Starting in September rather than in February is the single most useful decision families make here.

"Grade 9 science is de-streamed now."

Which means one class covers a wide range of readiness at one pace. The gaps are individual, so we diagnose rather than assume.

"We are in BC and the course names are different."

They are, and the competency-based structure differs from Ontario’s. We work from your child’s own course outline.

How it works

How tutoring runs for Canadian families

Matched to your province, scheduled from Newfoundland through to Pacific time.

01

Free trial class

A real lesson, and a report on where your child stands against their provincial curriculum rather than a national average.

02

Province and course check

We confirm the province and the exact course code before a tutor is matched, then work from your child’s own course material.

03

Weekly slot in your time zone

Evenings and weekends across six time zones, with the same tutor each week.

04

Progress before report cards

Regular parent-teacher meetings, and one on demand whenever you ask, so you are not learning about a problem from the report card.

The same approach applies to every subject: our coaching methodology explains how a lesson is planned, marked and followed up. You can also see everything we teach in Canada or read reviews from parents.

“I am happy to recommend Augment Edutech to anyone looking for Science tuition for their children. Their classes are well structured and the teachers are qualified and very competent. Overall value for money.”
Manoj Gupta
USA
“The physics classes are great with Prakriti mam! My child gets lessons that fit their needs, and the teacher make things easy to understand. I recommend it if you want your child to do well in physics.”
Sreenika Bhavaraju

“Augment Edutech has really helped my child learn better. The teachers give each student attention and make science interesting. My child now understands things more easily and feels more confident.”

Canadian parents ask

Clear answers before you start

Which province do you follow?
Ontario and British Columbia primarily, and we confirm which before matching a tutor. Elsewhere, the tutor works from your child’s own course outline.
What changed in Ontario’s elementary science curriculum?
It was replaced in 2022, the first rewrite since 2007. There is now a STEM strand running through every grade, coding expectations from Grade 1, and new content on emerging technologies and food literacy. The emphasis is on doing science, designing, building, testing, rather than reading about it, and our sessions work the same way.
Do you teach by Ontario course code?
Yes: SBI3U and SBI4U biology, SCH3U and SCH4U chemistry, SPH3U and SPH4U physics. Tell us the code and the semester, because the semestered system compresses a full course into roughly five months.
My child is in the de-streamed Grade 9 course. What should we watch?
SNC1W runs all four disciplines through one class at one pace, so watch the quantitative side: chemistry fundamentals, unit handling and graphing. Those are what Grade 10 and the Grade 11 codes lean on hardest.
Which Grade 12 sciences do universities actually want?
It depends on the program. Engineering typically requires SPH4U and SCH4U alongside the maths; life and health sciences typically look for SBI4U and SCH4U. Check the exact program page early, because the prerequisite decides the Grade 11 timetable, not just the Grade 12 one.
Does Grade 10 science matter if the marks that count come later?
It is the gateway. Each Grade 11 university-preparation code assumes specific Grade 10 content, and a student who scraped through meets the gap in the first unit of Grade 11. Securing Grade 10 is cheaper than repairing Grade 11.
How do you handle labs online?
Through your child’s own practical data and lab reports, because the marks live in the analysis and the error discussion rather than in the hands-on step. Real reports are marked together against the teacher’s rubric.
The math inside chemistry and physics is the real problem.
Often true. Stoichiometry, rearranging equations, units and significant figures lose more marks than the science itself, and we teach them explicitly inside the science session. Where the gap is genuinely a math gap, we say so and deal with it rather than working around it.
Is it all theory over a video call?
No. Sessions are built around worked problems and your child’s own assignments: diagrams drawn live, data sets analysed together, practical work handled through their own lab data. Application is what the senior courses grade.
Can you help with the Grade 12 independent investigation?
Yes, as planning, method design and feedback on analysis. The work stays your child’s.
Do you cover all three sciences at Grade 12?
Yes, with a specialist per subject. At Grade 12 the subjects are genuinely different disciplines and we do not pretend otherwise.
My child wants engineering or medicine. When should tutoring start?
September of Grade 11 is the comfortable answer, because the averages that decide offers are built across Grade 11 and the first semester of Grade 12. Starting later still works; the plan just gets more surgical.
My child studies science in French immersion. Can you help?
Yes. Tutoring is in English and the science itself transfers; immersion families often use sessions to secure the concepts in English before the senior years. We do not teach the French-language curriculum itself.
Is tutoring one to one?
Yes, one tutor to one student, the same tutor each week, and at the senior grades that means a specialist per science. Matched-level small groups are possible on request.
What times do classes run?
Weekday evenings and weekends in your own time zone. We schedule families from Newfoundland to Pacific.
What if my child cannot make a class?
Give us notice in advance and the session moves to another slot at no extra cost. The weekly time stays your child’s.
How do we know it is working?
Marked work and lab reports improve first, usually within six to eight weeks, and you hear it from the tutor directly: notes every two weeks or so and parent-teacher meetings whenever you ask. Report cards follow the school’s assessment calendar.
What setup is needed?
A computer with a camera and a microphone and a stable connection. Classes run on Microsoft Teams.
