Testimonials

"I highly recommend Oxford Learning at High Park. My son's experience had been amazing. He gained confidence, independence and enthusiasm to learn. Educators at Oxford Learning give the attention and the skills that school sometimes is not able to provide. Amanda (Director of Education) and her supportive, friendly Staff, are always there to answer any questions and/or concerns I had. His report cards say it all, he went from a "C" average to an "A" average. There is no magic, it doesn't happen overnight, but it happened, thanks to this great team of educators. They gave my son the positive attitude towards school. It had been worth every penny. Thanks for all your help."
- Maria N. (Parent)

"Oxford Learning has helped me in math. They helped me out with my long division. It’s made B's go to A's."
- Patrick D. (Gr. 5)

"At home we struggled with getting homework done. Our role as parents got tougher and tougher as every night we battled to get the homework done. When Oxford Learning came into play, that battle became much less difficult. Not only did our son's grades and confidence improve, but things at home were also much better."
- Ruby P. (Parent)

“My daughter started attending Oxford Learning High Park in January 2010. Her class marks at that time were very poor in several disciplines. Oxford Learning provided several teachers in all disciplines that were able to teach my daughter how to approach a problem. They also provided her with valuable tools including time management skill sets. This fall she will be entering grade 12 with aspirations of attending University in 2014. Thank you Oxford Learning."
- Jamie M. (Parent)
