Instruction at Learn. Develop. Succeed.

What Instructors Do

Our instructors provide one-to-one, individualized learning support for learners from Kindergarten through Grade 12, as well as adults seeking to strengthen their literacy, numeracy, and executive functioning skills.

Using a neuroaffirming, strengths-based approach, instructors deliver evidence-based instruction that supports literacy, math, executive functioning, sensory processing, and social-emotional learning.

Each instructor collaborates closely with Case Managers to design and implement personalized learning plans, assess progress, and help learners grow with confidence.

Our Approach

We deliver structured, systematic, explicit instruction anchored in the Science of Reading and conceptual math. Every learning plan is individualized, neuroaffirming, technology-enhanced, and linked to measurable goals.

We believe in helping every learner build on their strengths, and in equipping every educator with the tools and support they need to succeed.

Neuroaffirming Approach

Megan, Former Instructor

It’s been extremely rewarding working with LDS this year and I will certainly miss the community as I focus on my graduate school internship. Thank you for your support this year and I wish you all the best!
Carly, Former Instructor

Thank you so much for hosting this practicum! It has been my favourite so far because you have all been so kind and welcoming. I hope I can come back one day because you have all been wonderful. You all do such amazing work and should be proud of the positive change you are all making in this world.
Crystal, Practicum Student (Occupational Therapist at UBC)

LDS provides a challenging, interesting, supportive learning environment for its staff. They are a cause-based organization that provides a community service that is essential to support 10% of school children who have learning differences and cannot get the support they need in the public schools. It is inspiring to help these kids and their families (many of whom are low-income) to become happy and academically successful. It changes their lives profoundly. This makes LDS a very satisfying place to work. It’s all about the kids!
Current Employee

LDS has a supportive and welcoming team. I felt supported and encouraged during this entire placement! The work that everyone does is so important and is done with passion.
Sarina, Practicum Student (Occupational Therapist at UBC)

Working with others who are passionate about the cause and motivated by purpose is a unique environment. I would describe our team as talented, creative, collaborative, inclusive, open-minded, with a great sense of humour. What I love most about my job is the flexibility, work-life balance, and opportunities for growth and advancement! I feel very supported and valued and look forward to helping move the mission forward and making a bigger impact in my community!
Current Employee

Working at the LDS has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people in the community. The students have benefitted immensely from the services that we provide and have increased in academic success and motivation. The best part of the job is seeing the students gain a love for reading, as well as building their self-esteem.
