Recommended Usage

Encounter Edu is designed to be as flexible as possible. Teachers and parents may want to use just a single video or lesson. Our regular live lessons for premium subscribers will offer classes and parents a weekly dose of inspiration.

We recommend daily usage of 30+ minutes as Maestro is integral to teaching learning and assessment.

Most Helpful Reviews

Encounter Edu

J Williams, National Education Coordinator: Its an exceptional resources to seed ideas. however since the Pan-Canadian expectations vary from the original source documents some triage of the content is required. This takes time. The one thing teachers claim not to have a surplus of. The score of 9 accounts for this 'slight' inconvenience.
Laura Rodwell, Eco council leader and Ta: I think this is an important part of children learning and the video and live lessons are amazing.
Shawna, Professional Development Specialist: I've already shared it with my colleagues

Maya tafsir, Teacher: It is an amazing platform
Louise Burridge, Principal: Up to date, easily accessible and challenging for all
Cherida Gibson, Nurture Coordinator: It's a fantastic system that helps planning, tracking and assessment. It's just a very difficult system to use and can be complicated to find the areas that you need. It would be great if the system was easier to use and simpler to navigate.
