Study smart and get a head start this summer at Oxford Learning Brooklin. Studies suggest that, after a summer break, students can lose up to six weeks of learning skills and 2.6 months of math grade level equivalency. They're also more likely to score lower on tests. Oxford Learning Brooklin's programs, including the summer ones, are customized to suit a child's specific needs. Our programs can help students maintain momentum and tackle problem areas in order to be prepared for the challenges of the next school year. Without the hustle and bustle of the regular school year, students are able to make great academic strides. This leads less school-related stress and fewer struggles at home once the school year begins. Oxford Learning uses cognitive learning techniques to help children develop more effective ways of thinking, concentrating, listening, and remembering. The programs help children of all ages acquire the necessary tools to read and write, in both English and French if necessary. The children learn to study effectively as well as be better organized, motivated, and confident both inside and outside the classroom. "I have seen kids flourish," says Trisha Dosaj, Oxford Learning Brooklin's owner and director. "There is a moment of clarity when they realize they can do it, especially when they learn to read or complete a task independently. We want to ensure we can help everybody; to make sure students have the right strategies to transfer from Oxford to their daily lives, whether it be at home or at school." Oxford Learning programs cover all ages, grades, and subjects: Little Readers & R.E.A.D. Elite (Ages 3-6), Beyond Tutoring (Grades 1-8), Advantage (Grades 8-12), and French (Grades 1-12).
