SPECIALIZED CENTRE FOR
STUDENT SUCCESS 

HEARTFELT LEARNING + EXECUTIVE FUNCTION SUPPORT

Every student can achieve academic & personal success with the right support & strategies.

At Brightside Learning, we specialize in working with bright, capable students who may feel stuck, scattered, discouraged, or disconnected. Some may have ADHD or learning differences. Others may be overthinkers, feel anxious, or overwhelmed. Many simply need support that feels different -- more personal, more attuned, more connected, more on the ball, more real

 

Our signature Brightside Approach blends crucial therapeutic learning relationships with coaching for executive function development, reflective metacognitive dialogue, active previewing, and academic strategy. We focus on supporting the whole learner, meeting each student where they're at, and helping them become confident and successful. We demonstrate an unwavering belief in each student's potential and ability to achieve success, which shines through every step of the way!​​

  • Have a hard time finding their materials or are an "organized mess"

  • Say they're studying but the test results are not where they should be

  • Have difficulty getting started, staying on task and staying motivated

  • Often lose marks because they don't read and/or follow the directions

  • Struggle to break large assignments into smaller, more manageable parts
