About Piriam
I’m an Ontario Certified Teacher (OCT) with a specialization in Language and Literacy, and have over 20 years of experience helping students become strong, confident communicators. I hold a degree in English and a Masters of Science in Education, and I’ve dedicated my career to supporting students in developing essential reading and writing skills. Teaching is more than just a profession for me. It’s a true passion. Over the years, I’ve been deeply touched by the heartfelt notes, thoughtful gifts, and messages from former students who have reached out to share the lasting impact I’ve had on their lives. Their kind words and successes are constant reminders of why I do what I do. In addition to teaching, I am also a published author of 2 children’s picture books, with a third currently in progress. My love of language and reading fuels everything I do, and I bring that enthusiasm into every tutoring session. I’m sincere, patient, and fully committed to helping each student reach their full potential. Whether your child needs support, confidence, or challenge, I’m here to provide expert guidance with heart.

English
As an experienced and OCT-certified teacher with over 20 years of classroom and tutoring experience, I specialize in helping students become stronger, more confident writers. I focus on teaching how to write clearly, concisely, and effectively across a variety of school assignments, including personal narratives, opinion pieces, reports, and essays.
My lessons are tailored to meet the individual needs of each student. I use a practical and supportive approach that includes:
* Clear explanations and models
* Step-by-step guidance through the writing process
* Plenty of opportunities for practice
* Help with editing and revising to improve clarity, structure, and grammar
Students learn how to plan, organize, and express their ideas with purpose and confidence. I also help build vocabulary, sentence variety, and critical thinking skills, all while making writing feel manageable and even enjoyable.
Whether the need is to improve basic writing skills or to sharpen academic writing, I provide personalized support to help students succeed in school and beyond.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Piriam.
Perfect! Piriam, was very professional and always timely in her responses. My daughter, really enjoyed working with her. She took the time to explain things clearly while also motivating and encouraging her in the work she completed during the tutoring sessions. As a Grade 12 student with an IEP, my daughter has some learning challenges, and Piriam was very understanding and supportive of her needs. She helped navigate what was expected in Grade 12 English and build much more confidence in her abilities. We had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend her.
Perfect! We’ve had the privilege of working with Piriam to help our 10-year-old prepare for a middle school entrance exam. In just a few short months, he has learned so much — from writing essays with a clear introduction and conclusion, to strengthening vocabulary, improving sentence structure, and developing critical thinking skills.
She is always flexible and punctual, and truly goes above and beyond to work with us. Her manner with our son is warm, encouraging, and personal. The lessons balance serious work with plenty of praise and motivation, which has helped him stay fully engaged. She captures his attention so well that he never complains about the time — in fact, he finds her sessions fun and looks forward to them each week.
Thanks to her guidance, his confidence and skills in English have grown tremendously. We highly recommend Piriam to any family looking for a tutor who can help their child excel in reading, writing, and beyond.- I am looking forward to working with Jenny's son!Piriam's response :

Piriam has been excellent. She is always on time and creates a positive, engaging learning environment. Every week my child finishes the lesson feeling accomplished. We are very pleased with the progress so far. Thank you for your great work!
Ms. Maharaj has been one of the most helpful and supportive teachers I’ve ever had, especially when it comes to English. She made a big difference in how I write essays, organize my written responses, and prepare engaging oral presentations. She takes the time to teach us how to organize our thoughts clearly, explain our ideas with strong evidence, and express ourselves in a way that makes sense and leaves an impact. Her feedback is always kind but honest, and it helped me improve every step of the way. Thanks to her, I feel much more confident in my writing and communication skills. Overall, being in Ms. Maharaj’s class has been such a positive experience. She’s patient, explains things clearly, and always checks in to make sure we’re doing okay with the work. She motivates you to try your best but never makes you feel pressured. What stood out the most is how much she cares and not just about our grades, but about how we’re doing as people. She also gave helpful advice about preparing for high school, which made me feel ready for what’s next. If you're looking for a tutor who is committed, kind, and really knows how to help you grow, I would absolutely recommend Ms. Maharaj.
Being a student in Ms.Maharaj's class has been a wonderful journey for me. She teaches students in a clear and understanding way that is helpful to the student. She guides students in a friendly way to their best and gives them a lot of commitment. She answers any questions a student has and she also gives advice to students and makes them feel confident about the future. Being in her class as a grade 8 student has helped me improve my knowledge. I have learned many things that I will be taking to high school. I have learned so much from her during the year that makes me feel ready for new tasks in the future. For students that want to learn from a very helpful teacher that guides them through the work, in a clear and understanding way, I would recommend Ms.Maharaj.
I am pleased to recommend my son’s Grade 7 online teacher, Ms. Piriam, as an exceptional educator. Having closely observed her teaching methods throughout my son’s time in her class, I can confidently affirm her effectiveness and dedication to her students.
Ms. Piriam utilizes a diverse instructional approach that includes lectures, collaborative group work, inquiry-based learning, flipped classroom techniques, the Socratic method, project-based activities, and direct instruction. This varied methodology not only enhances the learning experience but also accommodates the unique needs of each student.
One of the qualities I particularly admire in Ms. Piriam is her steadfast and no-nonsense attitude toward accountability. She holds her students, including my son, to high standards, fostering a strong sense of responsibility for their own work.
Her ability to blend different teaching styles creates a dynamic and inclusive classroom environment where all students can thrive. I wholeheartedly believe that Ms. Piriam is a highly trustworthy educator who instills confidence and trust in her students, making her an excellent choice for anyone seeking support in their educational journey.From the perspective of a student who has been in Ms. Maharaj's class, she is a wonderful teacher, and she teaches the kids firmly across subjects, guiding the way for young children. Sharing her advice for the future, simple reminders, and teaching us how to manage time helped me stay on track during the year. Ms. Maharaj provides a safe and educational space for younger and older kids, and honestly, I enjoyed her class because she's patient and speaks clearly when asked for help. I'm more confident in subjects than I was at the start of the year. Ms. Maharaj is the best person to reach out to if your kids are ready to commit to learning and need that assistance. Ms. Maharaj will be there.
As a student who was in Ms. Maharaj’s class for 2 years (grades 7 and 8), I believe she has been one of the most engaging and supportive teachers I’ve had. She’s helped me grow as a student and has contributed to raising my academic skills. I’ve learnt so many things in her class and I feel confident about the next year because of her. Ms. Maharaj’s teaching style and patience made a lasting impact on my learning experience. She actively supported our academic progress across all subjects. Whether it was offering tips on time management, helping us understand confusing assignments, or just motivation in general. I feel so much more confident in all of the school subjects (English, Math, Science, etc) because of things she’s taught me in these years. She never forgot to check in with each of us about assignments, remembered the small details, and created a great learning environment. Overall, her commitment to my academic success has made me a thriving student.
An amazing teacher. She has a great understanding of the topics she teaches and explains everything clearly and thoughtfully. She is very supportive and encouraging when students share their ideas and goals. Her guidance is motivating, helping for growth in both confidence and understanding. I'm grateful for her help and support!
Ms. Maharaj has been such a positive influence on my daughter . Since Grade 7/8, she’s been patient, encouraging, and always willing to go the extra mile to help her understand and do her best. My daughter has grown so much under her guidance. Not only in academics but in how she approaches challenges with more confidence. We’re truly thankful for all the care and effort Ms. Maharaj puts into her teaching.
Ms. Piriam Maharaj is an excellent teacher that always guides her students to their best. She is always on time and is very helpful. Ms. Piriam Maharaj always answers questions from students and encourages them to ask if they need any help. She marks students' work. She gave my daughter good advice for high school and told her about things she can do in the future such as university. She explains the work clearly and encourages my daughter to make better presentations. She gives good feedback, which helped my daughter improve her presentation skills greatly. She is an amazing and a very trustworthy teacher.
She is an amazing teacher! She teaches us so many topics in a simple manner to make us understand it well. You can ask her any question and she will answer it or give advice on it!
I have had Ms. Maharaj as my teacher for my teacher for grade 7 and 8. She was extremly dedicated to her students and you can tell she really loves teaching. Not only was she able to give amazing lessons, but she listened to her students needs and adjusted her class. For example, whenever we would have a due date for an assignment she would always check-in to make sure the date was fair and that we all had enough time to finish the work.
Those two years in middle school were really a gamechanger for me as I also learned more beyond the classroom. She would take the time to give us mini lessons on life which were different and taught me a lot.
She is an easy-going teacher and has definitely made my experience going into high school soooo much easier. I would 100% reccomend her to other students my age looking for a tutor as she is probably one of the best teachers I have had.
Overall, she is the kind of person that not only cares about the material they teach but also cares about the students and people she works with catering to their needs. She has made an amazing teacher and mentor in Gr. 7 and 8, and a tutoring service like superprof is lucky to have her!
As parents, we are truly grateful for the dedication and care that Piriam Maharaj brings to every lesson. She has a special gift for making learning not only effective, but also joyful. Our daughter, Ayaana always looks forward to her classes with excitement and comes away feeling more confident and motivated.
From a parent's perspective, it’s reassuring to know that your child is in the hands of someone who is not only knowledgeable, but also patient, kind, and genuinely passionate about teaching. Piriam creates a warm, encouraging environment where our daughter feels seen, heard, and supported.
We’re so happy she’s now offering tutoring services and we highly recommend her to any family looking for a tutor who truly cares and delivers real results.
