What we cover

Six Focus Areas. One Clear Path.

  • 01

    World and National History

    Canadian and world history with timelines that support real arguments.

  • 02

    Geography (Physical and Human)

    Landforms, population, resources and sustainability made concrete.

  • 03

    Social Studies and Civics

    Government, citizenship and the civic writing short credits assess.

  • 04

    Source Analysis

    Perspective, purpose and bias - reading evidence instead of guessing.

  • 05

    Essay Structure

    Thesis, evidence paragraphs and conclusions that match school rubrics.

  • 06

    Inquiry Projects

    Research plans, note-taking and write-ups for history and geography assignments.

Why it works

Patience, Clarity, and a Plan That Matches School.

Senior humanities courses stop rewarding recall and start rewarding argument. Students who know the content still lose marks when essays lack a thesis or sources sit unused. Our tutors teach the content and the writing method together, mapped to the provincial course your child is actually in.

  • 01 Matched to grade level and provincial curriculum
  • 02 Same dedicated tutor for continuity
  • 03 Source analysis and essays taught explicitly

Questions parents ask

Common Questions, Answered

Can't find what you need? Our academic advisors are available across Canadian time zones.

Which subjects sit under Humanities?+
History, Geography, Civics and related social-science writing - including Ontario courses such as CHC2D, CGC1D and CHV2O, and parallel pathways in BC and Alberta.
My teen knows the content but loses marks on essays. Can you help?+
That is the most common pattern. We work on thesis construction, source integration and structure directly.
How is this different from Social Studies?+
Social Studies covers the broader provincial frameworks across the grades. Humanities here focuses on history, geography, civics and the argument skills those courses demand.
Same tutor all year?+
Yes. Your child keeps the same dedicated tutor unless you request a change.
