If your child has been diagnosed with a language-based learning disability such as dyslexia, or if your child has been diagnosed as gifted/ld, there’s no better place to be than Fraser Academy.

We have one goal: to help students with language-based learning disabilities, including dyslexia, become successful learners. The school is set up to help students achieve this through:

  • Small class sizes that enable teachers to employ multisensory-learning techniques on an individual level in all classroom situations
  • Daily diagnostic and prescriptive one-to-one tutoring with a certified OG tutor to address each student’s specific weaknesses
  • Adapted curriculum, enabling students to demonstrate knowledge and talents in alternate ways
  • A firm support structure that with an emphasis on organizational training, and which helps students to develop positive study habits
  • A multisensory learning approach with emphasis on language development, self-esteem and self-advocacy
  • The use of voice-activated software and leading technologies that support learning independence with a 1:1 computer-to-student ratio
  • Teaching principles and practices based on over 25 years of frontline experience and influenced by the latest research on human intelligence, cognitive development, dyslexia and learning disabilities
  • Shared schedules: students in the same grade have the same schedules—from core and enriched curricula to daily one-to-one tutoring; they are never pulled out of class to go to a “resource” room; they never feel stigmatized.

 

 

The Multisensory Advantage

 A multisensory teaching method is critical for students with language-based learning disabilities. The four modalities––visual, auditory, touch and movement––give students the tactile and kinetic memories they need to experience learning success. 

Maths Supplement

For an additional fee Fraser Academy now offers daily one-to-one maths tutoring (in addition to daily one-to-one language arts OG tutoring).
