Academic Tutoring & Structured Learning Programs
Targeted instruction designed to build strong foundational skills, academic confidence, and measurable progress in reading, writing, phonics, and mathematics.
1-on-1 and small group programs available online and in-person.
We support a wide range of learners across both math and literacy, including students who are building foundational skills, students with learning differences or IEPs, and students who benefit from structured, step-by-step instruction and individualized support.
Summer Structure: All summer programming runs over a 6-week period beginning the week of July 13th and ending the week of August 17, 2026 (inclusive).
During this time, students may enrol in either language, phonics, math tutoring and/or structured Math Masters programs. As we understand that students go on vacation, attend camps, et cetera, we do offer flexible scheduling.
All language, phonics, and math tutoring programs (other than students taking high school math courses in the summer) are designed to follow a 6-week instructional sequence. However, we understand that not all students may be able to attend for 6 weeks.
Math Masters programs are designed as complete learning cycles (8 or 12 sessions depending on the program). Because these programs are structured for skill development over time, some students may complete the full program during the summer through twice weekly attendance (accelerated program), while others may prefer to attend once a week and continue the program beyond the summer session.
For Summer 2026, we are offering limited one-on-one, in-person sessions as well as a group Multiplication Masters Program.
Serving students in Grades 1–12.
📍 Morning, afternoon, and evening sessions available
Programs: For information on the programs we offer, please scroll to Programs located below.
Booking: To book classes or for more information, you can call or text Angela at 416-433-4863 or click on the link below. If you text or email, please be sure to indicate your preferred days and times. We will do our best to accommodate your request.

Summer Program Policy
Summer enrollment is based on reserved instructional time within a structured program. As a result, missed sessions cannot be refunded or rescheduled, as space and instructional planning are allocated in advance.
This ensures consistency within small group and individualized programming and allows each session to remain structured and progression-based.
We understand that summer schedules can vary; however, maintaining continuity of instruction is essential for program effectiveness.

Please talk to us about whether your student would benefit the most from a 45-minute or 1-hour class. Students in grades 5 to 8 should be doing 1-hour classes for maximal benefit (although there are some exceptions). Students in grades 9-12 must do a mandatory 1-hour class.
Due Date for Fees: Fees are due in full before the student's first summer class.
HST Exemption (High School Students): High school students taking a summer math course, who are provided with an outline and/or syllabus, may be HST exempt. Please inquire for more information.
Note About HST Exemption for Returning Students: During the regular school year (September to June) HST exemption is possible with an outline from the teacher. However, because during the summer months there is no outline from the teacher, HST is applicable. These are the rules established by our government and not our rules.
All children need is a little help, a little hope,
