Did you see the EQAO results last week? Only 52% of Grade 6 students in Ontario met the provincial math standard. Grade 3 was 65% and Grade 9 was 59%.
If your child is struggling with math right now, please hear this: it's really common, and it's not the end of the story.
Our founder Marilyn talked about it on TV. "A lot of parents come to us when the kids are really struggling," she said. And then the best part, when those parents come back and tell her, "oh, my kid got an 80 in math."
She's honest about why school feels harder right now: distraction, devices, and a classroom where it's tough to focus. An hour one on one with a certified teacher, away from all of that, gives a child room to catch up and feel good about it again.
Online, in person, or at your local library.
What's the one subject you'd love to see your child feel confident in this year?

EQAO results are out. Math is up a little in every grade, but the bigger story is how many kids stop liking math between Grade 3 and Grade 6: 65% say they like it in Grade 3, 48% by Grade 6.
Two small things to try: tonight, ask "What part of math feels hardest right now?" and just listen. This week, ask the teacher which step your child gets stuck on.
What grade is your child in, and do they like math? Tell us below.

Think about the last time you hurt your back or your shoulder. You probably didn't ask a friend to have a look. You went to a physiotherapist, someone trained and certified for exactly that.

Our founder Marilyn was on TV talking about this, and she put it perfectly: "So why not get somebody that's certified, that understands the curriculum, to help your child?"

That's the whole idea behind Connect Education. Every tutor is a certified teacher in good standing with their provincial college. Retired teachers, supply teachers, teachers fresh out of teacher's
college. All with real classroom experience, all vetted by our team, and all genuinely there to support your child.

Asking for help isn't a sign that something is wrong. As Marilyn says, even we as adults always need support.

Who was the teacher who made the biggest difference for you or your child? We'd love to hear.

You've probably already tried the obvious things.

Reading together at night. Extra practice on the weekend. Moving him somewhere quieter so he can concentrate. Maybe a tutor who told him to
read it again, slower this time.

Here's what a teacher trained in special education does instead. She listens to him read, and she watches his finger. She sees him slide back
onto the same line. Twice.

That isn't a reading problem. That's a tracking problem, and it needs a completely different fix. A regular tutor wouldn't have looked at his
hands at all.

That's the first of three reasons in this video, and it's why Connect Education only works with certified teachers in good standing with their
provincial college. A lot of them are trained in special education, so they've already met your child's version of stuck.

Nothing here is your fault. Most parents don't find out there's a gap until a report card tells them.

If you've had a tutor who didn't work out, what was missing? We read every reply.

What a weekend in Niagara Falls🎉 Salsa In Toronto Festival

For us, this weekend was really about community. It's something we talk about a lot, and there's something incredibly special about seeing people come together through music, culture, dancing, food and local businesses.

Salsa in Niagara Falls brought thousands of people together, and we got to be part of it.

A huge thank you to TLN TV and Aldo Di Felice for bringing Salsa to Niagara Falls and creating this opportunity for our community. And to Jesus Bustamante (Jesvs) for the energy he brings to every one of these events.

Thank you also to Niagara Parks and David Adames and his team, for helping make this celebration of community and culture possible.

Our team worked hard, and had so much fun. Over 21,000 steps each day, some incredible food, a lot of dancing, and so many wonderful people from across the Niagara region. ❤️

One of our favourite moments: a teacher from our platform, a supply teacher from Niagara Falls, joined us to meet parents. Both of his parents are teachers. So is his brother. Until this weekend we had never met him in person. Knowing we're helping teachers earn extra income while helping students is exactly why we do this.

Two of our engineers joined us too. They got to step away from the screen and meet the people who use what they build every day. They saw firsthand why their work matters.

It was also great connecting with University of Niagara Falls Canada and Niagara Falls Innovation Hub, and meeting parents, educators and businesses from across Niagara.

And a special thank you to Mayor Jim Diodati for stopping by our booth. When community leaders show up for events like this, it matters, especially for growing Canadian companies.

Connect Education may be a national company, but we grow one community at a time. Every teacher who joins our network, every parent we meet, every relationship we build helps us reach more families across Canada.

That's why weekends like this mean so much.

See you in 2027, Niagara Falls🎡

Did you know tutoring can count as a medical expense on a Canadian tax return?

Not education. Medical. If your child has a diagnosed learning disability or an impairment in mental functions, the CRA lists tutoring among eligible medical expenses on lines 33099 and 33199.

It only qualifies when all four of these are true:
✓ Your child has a diagnosed learning disability or mental impairment
✓ The tutoring is on top of regular school, not instead of it
✓ A medical practitioner certifies in writing that your child needs it
✓ The tutor is not related to you and tutors for a living

The written certification is the piece families forget. Ask for it when tutoring starts, not at tax time. And it does not have to be your family doctor. A physician, psychologist, speech-language pathologist or audiologist can all sign, depending on the diagnosis and the authorized list in your province.

You do not claim the full amount either. The federal line for 2026 is $2,890, or 3 percent of your net income, whichever is lower, and only the costs above that line count toward the credit. The credit reduces the tax you owe rather than paying you back, provinces add their own on top, and Quebec's version can pay out even when no tax is owing.

This is general information, not tax advice. Please confirm your own situation with a qualified accountant.

If you have been wondering where your child actually stands before the new school year, a certified teacher can give you a clear picture in 15 minutes, free.

Something I wish I'd figured out sooner: when a kid is struggling with a subject, it's rarely that they "can't do it." It's usually that no one has taught it the way that particular kid learns.
We went through a stretch of rough homework nights before we found a teacher who actually clicked with how my child thinks, and it changed everything, the confidence more than the grades.
If anyone's in the same boat, Connect Education matches your child with a certified teacher based on how they learn (online, in person, or at your local library). They do a free assessment first so you're not guessing: https://www.connect-education.com/assessment
Happy to answer questions if it helps anyone.
