In 1998 Agincourt Learning began as an in-house tutoring service that catered to the individual needs of the children. Agincourt Learning understood the importance of personalized attention in order for educational growth. One-on-one tutoring with highly qualified teachers provided each student with the personalized attention required. Agincourt Learning then expanded in 2001 to become a learning centre where students of similar interest and ambitions could meet and benefit from a nurturing one-on-one environment.A desire to help all children in the community has led Agincourt Learning to develop a web site for students which includes an online learning component. High quality tutoring is now available to all students simply from the comfort of their own home, or wherever there is an internet connection. Every child can now receive personalized one-on-one attention.Agincourt Learning believes there is a strong need for supplementary tutoring programs to be available for all students.

We have over 95% success rate for teaching children to learn to read using an Orton-Gillingham based simultaneous multi-sensory approach. Working memory, short-term memory, and visual/auditory memory are addressed with cognitive therapy. For students with attention issues we use both cognitive therapy, listening exercises to strengthen that skill, and executive functioning instruction for the organizational areas. Central Auditory Processing disorder is corrected using cognitive therapy as well as receptive language processing skills. Grades SK, 1, and 2 use a Touch Math system that is multi-sensory giving stronger memory of the facts. For grades 2- 8 a math program called Jump written by Toronto's John Mighton, professor and author of The Myth of Inability has worked for students struggling with math concepts and mechanics. Our work is more than a job; it is a passion.
