In Clarington, ON, students attend schools in boards like Kawartha Pine Ridge DSB, Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington Catholic DSB, Durham DSB, and Durham Catholic DSB, as well as French boards. Our tutors plan sessions to match classroom units, pacing, and assessment styles. We also prepare students for key Ontario assessments such as EQAO in Grades 3, 6, and 9, and the OSSLT in Grade 10. With your permission, we can coordinate with teachers so tutoring supports IEP goals and daily classwork.

– Math: number sense, fractions, algebra, geometry, advanced functions, calculus, data management

Yes. We customize tutoring to each students needs and can align with IEP goals. Tutors use strategies like chunking tasks, visual organizers, movement breaks, and assistive tools when appropriate. We also build executive functioning through our X-Skills approach, which supports organization, planning, time management, prioritization, and goal setting. Specific plans depend on the student, so we start with a conversation to understand what works best.

You will receive session reports after each meeting that summarize what was covered, wins from the session, and next steps. We set clear goals, check in with you regularly, and adjust the plan as needed. When tutoring online, sessions are recorded for review. For school benchmarks like EQAO and the OSSLT, we use Ontario-style practice to measure readiness and focus on the specific skills the tests require.

We begin by finding the root of the challenge, often in earlier concepts like fractions, equations, or problem solving. Then we build a personalized plan that supports current classroom topics and Ontario-style questions. We include targeted practice, real-time feedback, and coach students on how to show their work and check answers. We also prepare for the Grade 9 EQAO by practicing with similar question formats.
