Our History
Founded in 2011 in Toronto, Focus Learning has been providing enrichment after-school courses for over 10 years - from academic subjects such as Reading and Writing, to extracurricular STEM courses in 3D Printing, Coding, and Minecraft Education Edition, and to leadership courses such as Public Speaking and Young Entrepreneurs. Our summer camp programs began in 2014 and have since attracted campers from over 20 countries.
In 2020, we were among the first after-school centres that shifted to online learning and have since attracted hundreds of students from both in and outside Canada. We have also been able to enlarge our teaching force by drawing in teachers from around the country.
In 2021, we were approved to be the Microsoft 365 Education Tenant, thus upgraded to a full virtual after-school school with most of the functionalities owned by a real school. Powered by Microsoft Teams for Education and the Parent Connect app of Beedle, all students, parents and teachers from both our online and in-person classes connected on the same platform. A real learning community is created.
