Avani Academy teaches math online to students in Canada from Grade 5 to Grade 12, with lessons aligned to Ontario and British Columbia courses as well as IB Mathematics and AP Calculus. Classes are live on Google Meet or Zoom, one-on-one or in a small group.
Lessons are taught by Avani Shukla, an Electronics & Communication Engineer with over 14 years of experience teaching math, who explains each idea step by step and builds confidence through practice.

What we cover
Number sense, fractions, ratios, patterns and early algebra.
Grade 9 de-streamed math (MTH1W) and Grade 10 Principles of Mathematics (MPM2D).
Functions (MCR3U), Advanced Functions (MHF4U), Calculus & Vectors (MCV4U) and Data Management (MDM4U).
Foundations of Mathematics and Pre-calculus 10, Pre-calculus 11 and 12, and Calculus 12.
Lessons follow your province's course, plus IB Mathematics (Analysis & Approaches or Applications & Interpretation, SL and HL) and AP Calculus for students on those tracks. Students in other provinces are welcome — tell us the course name when you book.
Avani teaches from India, so session times are agreed individually in your local time (ET, CT, MT or PT) — weekend mornings and some weekday evenings are the usual overlap. Availability is confirmed when you book.
How it works
Share their grade, curriculum and what they find hard — the form takes about a minute.
A live diagnostic lesson on Google Meet or Zoom to find gaps and agree a math plan.
One-to-one or small-group lessons at a time agreed in your local time zone.
Yes — lessons are aligned to Ontario's Grade 9–12 math courses, including MTH1W, MPM2D, MCR3U, MHF4U, MCV4U and MDM4U, and to the elementary curriculum for younger students.
Yes, both IB Mathematics: Analysis & Approaches and Applications & Interpretation, at SL and HL.
Usually, yes. Share your child's course name and textbook when booking the trial and we'll confirm the fit before you commit.
