Ruth Rumack’s Learning Space (RRLS) provides personalized educational support for Pre K-12 students in Toronto, including those with learning differences.
Originally established as a tutoring company in 1996, RRLS has since evolved into something much more unique. RRLS provides individualized academic and special education support that goes well beyond the role of a standard tutor. The 1-to-1 programming is centered on research-based Direct Instruction programs, and incorporates kinesthetic learning and other creative teaching methods.
For 20 years, RRLS’s approach to teaching through sensory and motor activities, combined with tailoring to specific learning styles, has yielded excellent measurable results.
