“It’s really calming, and you get the help that you need. It’s just a great environment for me personally. And you never get in trouble for making a mistake! You always get help. The teachers are super nice, and they explain things your way, so your mind will understand it.”
(Annalisa, 14, gets support with organization and content for work at a local private school)

“It‘s a good vibe... it‘s very upbeat and positive. When I first came to BrainBoost I would have to get someone to tell me what to do, now I can actually get my work done and not have any homework.”
(Fanny, age 14, has a Hub Pass, and takes tutoring in math/science, and English/socials)

“I passed Math 9 by 2%, so I had 52% or something. So my mom said ‘this isn’t working,‘ so she talked to my counsellor and signed me up for online courses, and then she brought me to BrainBoost for tutoring once a week for tutoring with Marina. And I got an ‘A’ that year! Last year, in Math 11, I got in the 80s. Now this year, I’m doing half my courses here [through distance learning], and half at a ‘regular’ school.”
(Nick, age 16, part-time student who takes math and other courses online, while still attending a ‘brick and mortar’ school part-time)

“I love all the help I can get here. Everyone at BrainBoost has a great attitude. I can get help with whatever I need. I raise my hand, ask a question, they know the answer right away. I love how I can go at my own pace. It’s way better than ‘normal’ school” ”
(Ashara, age 17, has a Hub Pass, and takes tutoring in math/science as well as some small-group classes)

“I came BrainBoost because you can go at your own pace with lots of help. I like the labs I’ve done in Science; I got to build a giant circuit ...and it worked, surprisingly! Although this is a chill and relaxed place there are people who are determined to help you get your work done. I’ve gone from ‘C’s and ‘D’s to ‘A’s and ‘B’ s – it speaks for itself! ”
