About the Instructor

Hello there! 

I'm Tess Zhang, your enthusiastic instructor at Kumon Math & Reading Center of Delta Tsawwassen. Armed with a Bachelor of Arts from the prestigious University of Toronto and a Dual Master's in Business Administration from Queens University and Cornell University, I'm on a mission to cultivate a love for learning. Inspired by the empowering philosophy of Kumon, I believe in nurturing strong foundations through the magic of self-learning. Having personally witnessed and experienced the transformative power of self-learning both in school and the professional area, I'm her to spark that same passion in each of my students.

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

Let's embark on this exciting journey of discovery and growth together!✨

A tourism professional turned into a Kumon enthusiast! In my journey through the dynamic tourism industry, I found joy in coaching and guiding numerous individuals toward career growth. Surprisingly, my coaching style resonated deeply with the Kumon method, emphasizing self-learning and coaching through real-world examples and subtle hints.

Firmly rooted in the belief that every instruction should have a clear goal and plan, I've carried this principle into my role as a Kumon instructor. In my role as a guide to students, I consistently ponder: How can I elevate their experience, infusing their studies with enthusiasm and confidence?

Drawing from my diverse experience, I recognize the pivotal role effective communication plays in all settings. Together, as a cohesive unit, communication acts as the glue binding us as we guide strong students on their academic journey.

Kumon, to me, transcends being a mere method; it's a philosophy that extends beyond improving academic abilities. It's a journey of nurturing self-confidence through the acquisition of problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

Join me on this empowering adventure where self-learning transforms into self-mastery, paving the way for a bright and confident future!
