The Vancouver Learning Centre
is the "Village" it takes
to get the very best outcome
for each learner.

The VLC is not a school but a Specialist Learning Centre. The VLC delivers a team-based process. A teaching captain is assigned to oversee the program delivery and to be the main contact with the parents who then become an integrated part of the team. Schools can then be involved as appropriate.

In the case of home schooling, the curriculum, homework tasks, testing, and the program to earn credentials and provide oversight to the curriculum is up to the distance education school. This becomes the learner’s school and the VLC will work collaboratively with the school’s contact person and will actively address all IEPs or special needs developed by that school.

Whether the student attends on site at VLC and remains as part of a class or works with a distance education school, the VLC becomes the specialist provider of one to one teaching based on the special needs of the learner in collaboration with the learner’s parents and the contact person assigned by the school.

Young Adult (18+ years) and Mature Student Training Program to Re-enter Schooling

When a learner who has been away from a regular learning program decides to go back to school, both confidence and new skills can be the key to their success.

The Vancouver Learning Centre can enhance cognitive, academic, and executive function skills, as well as design an individual program using strengths and new learning strategies in a coaching format.
To begin, call for an interview to discuss areas of learning and goals and achievements needed for success both before and during the reentry.

The following services come into play:

  • Executive Function

  • Mind Mapping

  • Rapid Information Processing

  • World View

Support in academic skills development, essay writing, and whatever is needed can be incorporated into an individual program design.
To discuss reentry plans, contact Andrew Taylor.
