Learning Support

Support for Students Who Learn Differently

Similar to our SEEDS program, we believe that all students deserve their own academic profile and come to academic spaces with a unique set of skills that add depth to the learning milieu.

Our learning support services provide guidance and assistance to students through the expertise of an education specialist. Education Specialists are skilled in understanding individual learning needs and tailoring strategies to maximize academic success. Whether it’s developing effective study techniques or creating customized learning plans, the education specialist works closely with students to help them overcome challenges and reach their full potential. With support, students can gain confidence, improve their skills, and excel in their educational journey.

Areas of Focus Include:

  • time management -develop a weekly or monthly schedule that includes classes, extracurricular activities, and personal commitments. Use tools like planners or digital calendars to stay organized
  • transitional support-integrate short breaks between tasks to refresh your mind. Use this time to stretch, take a walk, or engage in a quick, enjoyable activity to recharge your focus
  • organization of coursework-identify and prioritize tasks based on deadlines and importance. Focus on high-priority assignments and break them into smaller, manageable steps
  • study skills-minimize distractions during study sessions by turning off notifications, finding a quiet space, and staying away from social media. Create a conducive environment for concentration
  • test taking strategies-instead of simply reading through materials, engage in active studying. Take notes, create flashcards, and teach the material to someone else. This reinforces your understanding
  • managing homework schedule-allocate specific blocks of time for different activities, such as studying, homework, and leisure. This helps maintain focus and prevents distractions

“We believe that every child can achieve their academic potential with the proper supports in place.”

Learning Support aims to create a supportive and inclusive environment where students feel valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. By offering personalized assistance and guidance, we strive to address individual learning needs and help students overcome any obstacles they may encounter. Ultimately, our goal is to foster a love for learning ensuring that all students have a successful and confident academic school year by providing them with the necessary tools and resources to thrive in their studies.
