" Maria is a seasoned professional with a true passion for teaching. I enjoyed working with her on my project during residency. I can’t speak highly enough about her interpersonal skills, time management and dedication to the project. She was able to organize and dissect the technical part of the task into pieces that were easy to complete. With her help editing of the manuscript was done with precision for perfection. "

I am an IMG who recently completed medical residency in family medicine. Maria was always available during my professional journey as an IMG — from mastering the IELTS to preparing for the residency interviews, to completing the residency program. Maria helped me learn how to understand and be a part of the Canadian system, but at the same time to keep my identity and use my professional skills in a better manner.
