Keep Up - Get Ahead
(all ages and levels - individualized instruction available during July and August)
Current research emphasizes that a two month academic gap can be extremely problematic for students with ABI.
Our 1:1 tutoring program provides instruction by a certified teacher/ABI educational specialist which enables the student to maintain their level of academic achievement throughout the summer. We provide individualized academic programming in reading, mathematics and study skills.
Our program is available to fit around the students schedule to accommodate other summer activities. Sessions can be held at the NRIO office, in your home or a community location.
Cost: $75.00 per hour

“I had the opportunity to observe the program and to follow the progress of one of the campers. I found it provided excellent opportunities for the campers to develop social communication, interpersonal skills and community re-integration while exploring a variety of exciting leisure activities in the city. The camper-staff ratio ensured close supervision for a teenager with 24 hour attendant care needs. The “Summer in the City” program was a positive experience for my client and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others”. Ann Fitzhenry Bedard, M.S., O.T. Reg. (Ont)
“I would highly recommend your camp to children with brain injuries. My 12 year old client raved about the wonderful experiences and new challenges, reports from the rehab team members indicated positive changes in his level of functioning, excellent opportunities and practice to develop language, communication and social skills, appropriate behaviour and to be integrated into the community. The high level of support enabled direct teaching and coaching, contributing to my client’s level of functioning in all areas cognitively, socially, emotionally and physically”. Mary E. Anderson, B.Sc.N., R.N., M.Sc (N), C.R.R.N.
