About Us

edison hopkinsonEdison Hopkinson, founder & owner of MATHCUBED, studied Mechanical Engineering at the University of Waterloo then completed his degree at the University of Ottawa where he received his Bachelor of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering in 1989.

Throughout his years at university, Edison successfully tutored many of his fellow Engineering students who struggled with math. Recognizing his natural talent for teaching, he combined his rapport with people and a successful approach to teaching math, to establish MATHCUBED, Ottawa's only tutoring centre that specializes in high school-level math.

As MATHCUBED grew into a full time enterprise, Edison returned to university to get his teaching certification. He graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Education (Senior-Intermediate level) from University of Ottawa in 1994.

Built primarily on word-of-mouth referrals from parents, math teachers, and guidance counselors, and educational psychologists, Edison and his team of rigorously selected tutors have successfully taught more than 2,000 high school math students over the past 15 years.


Mission Statement
At MATHCUBED, our mission is to substantially increase the math knowledge of our students so that they meet or exceed their academic math goals.

As our students’ math skills improve, we believe their confidence grows and they develop an enthusiasm for the process of deductive thinking.

We are wholeheartedly committed to fostering self-motivation and self-confidence in our students so they can independently pursue their future math studies with much success.

One of the chief objects of education should be to widen the windows through which we view the world.

~ Arnold Glasgow


 

The task of the excellent teacher is to stimulate “apparently ordinary” people to unusual effort. The tough problem is not in identifying winners: it is in making winners out of ordinary people.

~ K. Patricia Cross


 

A teacher affects eternity. He can never tell where his influence stops.

~ Henry Adams
