Most Helpful Reviews

timely practice

John Petry, Lead Practitioner: It is the only thing I have found which guarantees that students who need additional learning support catch up with their peers. Often they can understand harder topics - it is just their memory holding them back. Timely practice removes that barrier.
Tony Shah, Head of Mathematics: Because I have seen first hand the confidence, enjoyment and progress of pupils
Kirsty Behan, Acting Team Leader: Timely Practice has revolutionized the way I teach low attaining students. It has not only improved results but students have reported enjoying completely their timely practice each lesson, knowing how much it has helped them learn and, often for the first time, given them some confidence in their mathematical knowledge.

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
