The Blue Marble Academy is a woman owned tutoring business that specializes in inquiry-based learning strategies that align with the Ontario curriculum. Services offered are homework help, test prep, customized tutoring plans, coding classes, day camps, credit granting courses, summer “look ahead” programs and workshops.

All tutoring sessions are 1-on-1 with an instructor. This allows us to understand the student’s interests, strengths and areas for growth to provide enhanced programs so students are always engaged and growing their skills. A parent/guardian can request that their student receive additional practice materials to take home to further their learning outside of the classroom.

We are well versed in the Ontario Education program and can collaborate with all school boards. We can build a specialized program to help your child not just catch up but also enhance their knowledge and get them re-engaged with learning!

It is recommended that our students spend two, one hour sessions a week. We have found once a week does not yield substantial results as there is too much time in between each session. The best results are found with three hours or four sessions per week, however, it varies depending on the student’s needs, program and preferred outcome.

We prefer this approach! We love to be in touch with teachers and have found the best success rates when we all work together for the success of the student. We have however encountered some challenges with consent forms on the school end, but teachers have generally helped by being in touch during lunch breaks and after school. We will work as best as we can to align with your child's teacher!

We hire a variety of experiences, from certified Ontario teachers to University students planning on going into teaching, or those who enjoy sharing their knowledge. All our tutors are trained in our holistic method which includes engagement of the student through to tracking and meeting goals. We accept nothing but the best in client satisfaction and student success!

The Blue Marble Academy has existed since 2013, but considering all the changes since then we have re-branded to align with the current expectations of the Ontario curriculum. We are focused on teaching with holistic, inquiry-based practices that promotes students’ confidence in the classroom.

We offer both in-person and online tutoring services. In-person services take place at our learning centre located in King city, ON.
