Urmil P.

I'm a mathematician who teaches, a teacher who designs, and a designer who brings systematic thinking to every learning problem. I build mathematics content, curriculum, and e-learning courses that get used by real students, not just approved and filed away. Human Performance Technology shapes how I approach every project: start with the performance gap, then design the solution that closes it. That runs from a single practice question to a full, ministry-aligned course. **Experience & Qualifications** ✅ M.A. in Educational Technology, Concordia University ✅ M.Sc. in Mathematics, Gujarat University (2012) ✅ 15+ years as a Mathematics College Lecturer and Private Tutor ✅ 6+ years as a Content Developer and Subject Matter Expert on Upwork ✅ Instructional Designer, Keewaytinook Internet High School, building Ontario Ministry of Education courses **What I Do** 1️⃣ Mathematics Content & Tutoring 🔹 Primary through university-level mathematics 🔹 Exam prep: SAT, GRE, GMAT, ACT, AIME, GCSE 🔹 Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Trigonometry, Probability, Statistics 🔹 Question banks, textbook solutions, and visual aids built in LaTeX, GeoGebra, and Desmos 🔹 Educational animations, video solutions, and explainer scripts 2️⃣ Curriculum Development 🔹 Curriculum planning and learning strands mapped to board or ministry expectations 🔹 Lesson and module development, from single activities to full multi-lesson courses 🔹 Assessment design, rubrics, and question banks 🔹 Content aligned to standards including Ontario curriculum, CCSS, GCSE, and NCERT 3️⃣ Instructional Design & E-Learning 🔹 Needs assessment and learner analysis 🔹 Learning objectives and information architecture 🔹 Storyboarding and course mapping 🔹 Formative and summative evaluation plans 🔹 H5P interactives, SCORM packaging, Moodle authoring 🔹 ID frameworks: ADDIE, SAM, Backward Design, Kirkpatrick **My Approach** 📌 Start with the performance gap, then design toward it 📌 Structure and information architecture before creative execution 📌 Iterative development with evaluation built in, not added at the end 📌 Accessible design for diverse learners, aligned to WCAG 2.2 **Tools & Technologies** Mathematical Documentation: LaTeX, Overleaf, TikZ, PGFPlots, MathJax, KaTeX, GeoGebra, Desmos, Manim E-Learning & Authoring: Articulate Storyline and Rise, Genially, Adobe Captivate, SCORM-compliant output LMS Platforms: Moodle, Canvas, LearnDash Media Production: Premiere Pro, Audition, Photoshop, Illustrator, Canva, OBS, Camtasia Project Collaboration: JIRA, Asana, Zoho, Slack **Currently Building** 🧠 Twine for nonlinear training scenarios 🧠 Project management practices for instructional design work 🧠 Video production for course content **Why Work With Me** I've built two Ontario Ministry courses from scratch, including full curriculum mapping, and reviewed six published mathematics textbooks. I've completed 30+ projects for clients including Britannica, Course Hero, and Photomath. Incomplete briefs and shifting requirements are part of the job, and I work through them without needing everything spelled out upfront. Message me to discuss your project.
