About Kompass Academy

Redirecting learning, guiding futures.

As the Founder and Academy Director of Kompass Academy, I have dedicated over eight years to providing exceptional virtual tutoring services tailored to support neurodivergent students, including those with ADHD and autism. With a bachelors in Health Sciences and minor in Early Learning, my mission is to create a nurturing, inclusive environment where every student can thrive academically and personally.

With a strong focus on personalized learning, I collaborate closely with students and families to develop customized plans that cater to individual needs and learning styles. Drawing from my own experiences with ADHD, I bring a deep sense of empathy and understanding to my teaching, fostering an engaging and effective approach for all learners.

Whether you're looking to boost academic performance, build confidence, or prepare for the future, I'm here with the perfect team to guide your child every step of the way.

Getting started

How It Works

01

Free Consultation

Tell us about your student's subject, grade level, and goals. We'll talk through what kind of support actually fits.

02

Get Matched

We pair your student with a tutor who knows the subject and the curriculum — many of our tutors are IB alumni themselves.

03

Start Sessions

Meet virtually via Google Workspace or in person at our Vancouver campus location, on a schedule that works for you.

You Play
Teacher

Our core teaching method flips the usual review session: instead of passively going over notes, students explain the concept back to their tutor, without notes. It's a small shift that builds real, lasting mastery instead of last-minute memorization.
