Learn any course you want before you take it in school with York Region Tutoring.
Public and Private school courses are designed to be 110 hours in length. However, each course’s time allotment is broken down into lesson content, laboratories, quizzes, tests and work periods. We have found that the entirety of a course’s content can be taught effectively in only 30 hours.
Learn-A-Course (LAC) Summer School Program Breakdown
Our Summer School academic course preparation program spans a total of 41.5 hours. Each course consists of 5 to 8 units, with each unit containing 4 to 8 hours of lesson material, depending on its complexity. This results in 30 hours of instruction per semester. Each unit includes quizzes and concludes with a unit test. The course ends with a comprehensive final exam for our high school students. All quizzes, tests, and exams are written by YRDSB/YCDSB school teachers.
Please note that for IB and AP courses, slightly more than 30 hours may be required to cover all the content. Contact us for more details regarding the specific course length.
Why the Learn-A-Course (LAC) Program?
1. Master the Material: For students facing difficulties in a specific subject they are obligated to take the next year, acquiring a prior understanding of the course material not only boosts confidence but also (i) concretely contributes to achieving higher grades and (ii) enhances cognitive familiarity with the content.
2. Ease the Transition into the Next Grade: The initial period of the first semester often poses significant challenges for students as they adapt to the demands of a rigorous course load. The Learn a Course program is structured to emulate the routine of a standard high school course, integrating both learning and assessments. This approach helps to keep students mentally engaged throughout the program, minimizing setbacks during the transition period.
3. Competitive Advantage: Numerous universities refuse to consider grades from repeated courses, deeming it an unfair advantage. Our Learn a Course program provides students with a comparable academic edge, as it goes unrecognized by universities as a course taken previously. This is because the program does not award Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) credit upon completion.
