About Shanaka
Hi! I’m Shanaka Samarasena, a Chemical Engineering graduate from the University of Calgary with several years of experience tutoring students at both the high school and university/college levels.

My teaching approach is concept-focused and problem-solving based — I emphasize understanding why concepts work, not just memorizing formulas. Each session is tailored to the student’s course material, learning style, and academic goals.
What I Offer:
Clear, step-by-step explanations for difficult concepts
Custom worksheets, quizzes, and exam-style practice
Help with assignments, midterms, and exam preparation
Catch-up and intensive review sessions
In-person and online tutoring options
Affordable, student-friendly rates

I’ve known Shanaka through the Superprof community, I’ve recommended Shanaka to several students over time.
The feedback has been consistently fantastic. The students I sent Shanaka's way experienced a real turnaround in their math studies, not just in their grades, but in their overall confidence. Shanaka has a great way of making tough concepts click and creating a positive, supportive environment for learning.
I trust Shanaka completely with any student looking to improve in math and highly recommend booking a lesson!Shanaka is an understanding tutor who molds his lessons according to the student's needs. Shanaka has taught me college-level Chemistry. He possesses a great understanding of chemistry concepts and takes the time to make sure that the students are able to understand the lessons!
