Learner Support Services
At Fraser Academy’s Outreach Centre, FAx, we help learners realize their potential.We understand that there is a broad range of neurodiversity within dyslexia. Some students need support with math, academic writing, visual and/or auditory processing. We can help! Our students learn differently, and we support them in developing the skills they need to become confident, independent learners.

From the first moment we started in After3 tutoring through FAx, I have seen my daughter’s self-confidence and enthusiasm for learning grow. Unlike at our home school, Fraser Academy conveyed enthusiasm about who my child is and what she might become. One morning, my 5 year old couldn’t remember her tutor’s name and referred to her as ‘the teacher that teaches me everything I need to know so that I don’t get confused at school.’ Clearly, this program is working.

Our policy for 1:1 Math Essentials and NILD Educational Therapy is to provide a minimum of two sessions per week per semester. Research shows that the frequency of at least two sessions per week is needed for students to maximize the benefits of 1:1 remediation.
This depends on what the learning issues are. We work “as fast as we can and as slow as we need to.” Our goal is to build your child’s skills in reading, writing, math, and executive functioning so that they gain the confidence to take on academic challenges.
In the event that you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please note the following:
- Payment is non-refundable.
- If a child is unable to attend a session, contact us or the child’s tutor at least 24 hours in advance to qualify for a make-up session.
- If less than 24 hours notice is provided, no make-up sessions will be provided and payment will be forfeited.
- If your scheduled make-up session is missed or canceled it will be considered forfeit.
- A maximum of two make-up sessions will be provided per semester.

The way our daughter talks to us about her work shows that she is excited to be developing clear strategies for written assignments. I can actually hear the relief in her voice!
