The Best Tutoring in Cole Harbour, NS

We follow Nova Scotia curriculum outcomes and the expectations set by the Halifax Regional Centre for Education. Tutors use school-aligned materials, review classroom rubrics, and, when helpful, coordinate with teachers to support upcoming units and assessments. For French Immersion and Core French, we can support homework, reading, vocabulary, and subject-specific terms so students can learn content and language at the same time. Our goal is to keep students on track with what is taught in local schools and to build confidence with day-to-day assignments and tests.

We tutor elementary, junior high, high school, and adult learners. Subjects include:
– Math from early numeracy through pre-calculus
– Reading, writing, and English
– Sciences such as general science, biology, chemistry, and physics
– French Immersion and Core French
– Social studies and study skills
– Executive function coaching through our X-Skills program, which builds organization, time management, and planning
