We help adults with reading, writing, spelling and math, along with essential skills and computer basics. Anyone over the age of 19 is welcome to join our FREE learning programs. Some students prefer to work on their own while being guided by a trained staff or volunteer while others like the comfort of learning in a small group. We customize it to your needs.

Funding provided by the Government of Canada through the Canada Job Grant Programs delivered by the Government of Ontario.
