Summer sessions will be offered VIRTUALLY ONLY for 1.5 hours weekdays from July 15-26 and August 12-23.


Our program is designed to help children in grades 2-10 gain confidence and shift their mindset towards mathematics so that they can achieve academic success.

 

Our trained professionals undergo additional training so they can provide a multi-sensory approach to teaching mathematics and focus on the fundamentals of mathematics: number sense and numeration, patterning and algebra and mathematical application. Building these fundamentals allows us to support any gaps and needs of each child. 


As part of the intake process, students will complete a 30-minute assessment with a Centre for Diverse Learners staff member, and be placed in groups, with similar needs, that span a maximum of two grade levels (e.g., grades 1-2, 2-3, etc.).

 

Tutors will work with children in small groups of 3-4 students for a total of 15 hours over a two-week period in July and/or August
