Individual lessons in Kanata: the short answer

KIDSUP individual sessions are one-to-one lessons for children aged 4 to 8 at 150 Katimavik Rd in Kanata. The teacher adapts the program and the pace to your child’s abilities and interests, and you agree on the goals with us. Lessons are in English, between 9AM and 1PM, and cost $40 per session.

When one-to-one lessons fit

  • Your child is shy in front of other children and talks more freely with one adult.
  • Your child needs a different pace: the material can go faster or slower, following the child.
  • Your child has lots of questions and gets the teacher’s full attention to ask them.
  • Your child is 5–6 and starts preparing for writing and counting: at this age we often recommend individual lessons or a mix with a group.

What a lesson can focus on

You choose the goals together with us, and the teacher builds a personal plan around them. The content comes from the centre’s programs:

GoalWhat the teacher works on
Speech and communicationTalking, listening, explaining what the child needs
Early math and logicMath and logic games for the child’s age; counting preparation from 5–6
Hand skills for writingConstruction sets and hands-on tasks; writing preparation from 5–6
Memory and attentionOne theme per lesson, followed from start to finish

What can my child work on one-to-one?

The goals you choose with us: speech, early math and logic, hand skills for writing, memory and attention. Piano is also taught one-to-one in our music studio.
