ESS workshop
École Succès Scolaire provides home-schooled families with both personalized tutoring services and recognized courses accredited by the Ministry of Education. This workshop will clarify the differences between these offerings and how they can support your child’s educational journey.
Our tutoring services are designed to supplement home instruction, providing targeted support in core subjects, enrichment opportunities, and remedial assistance. These flexible sessions help students grasp challenging concepts, improve study skills, and build confidence in their learning.
In contrast, our recognized courses follow the official curriculum set by the Ministry of Education, allowing students to earn credits toward their high school diploma. These structured courses include certified instruction, formal assessments, official report cards and grade declaration, ensuring compliance with provincial education standards.
Join us to explore how École Succès Scolaire can provide the right level of support—whether through customized tutoring or recognized academic courses—to help your home-schooled child thrive.
