We have 2 boys attending Grade 11 and 9. Now that the school year has been turned upside down, the virtual class at 91做厙 has refocused their efforts in academics. The tutoring and the work are a great compliment to each other. Our boys feel like they are attending a normal lesson back at 91做厙, except now they are sitting at their desks at home. This transition is seamless and will only aid their studies once regular school class recommences.Parent of High School Students★★★★★
5 stars. . . outstanding! My child participates at 91做厙 in the enrichment program. 91做厙 challenges my daughter in ways the school she attends is not able to do. The programs set out for my daughter have allowed her to expand her every thought process allowing her to be the best and better version of herself.Emmy N.★★★★★
Thank you for offering such a great program. Whether your child needs help catching up, is working at grade level, or is working on an enriched program, 91做厙 is the right program.Corry L.★★★★★
My son is a 13-year-old high-functioning autistic. When school ended and 91做厙 had to close its doors I got a bit nervous. From being in the business world I knew that technology (Zoom for instance) existed for video interaction but wasn't sure how quickly 91做厙 could adapt and whether or not it would work for my son. To see that I am happy would be an understatement. He is able to focus a lot better from home than he ever was at the centre and I feel like we get more out of the hour. I have nothing but rave reviews for the zoom meetings with 91做厙.Jim.★★★★★
My son says the Zoom can sometimes be glitchy, but you get past that really quickly - and that is everyones reality these days :) The teachers are great, and you do the same work - just virtually. The feedback is given in real-time, which is great. I already notice an improvement. Thank you 91做厙!Happy Mom★★★★★
Nicholas has grown tremendously; he has become more outgoing as his confidence grows. He actually now asks to do his homework and is exciting about completing it. 91做厙 is a great program and teaches children the tools they need to learn going forward, to give them a strong start in life. N.K. St. CatharinesN.K.★★★★★
My daughter has been there two years and the changes in her have been astronomical, not just educationally but her confidence and motivation have sky rocketed. Anyone whos child is struggling I would highly recommend this program.Jennifer K.★★★★★
Our son needed to write his SAT in order to attend a university on an athletic scholarship in the United States. When we started investigating courses, we were pleased to see SAT prep on the 91做厙 website because it was a more convenient location for us than heading over to Buffalo for a course. The preparation given by 91做厙, and in particular, the expertise of Shafia, was outstanding! The centre director, Emily, was wonderful and gave us so much confidence in the process and provided us with lots of flexibility on how Nick could best take advantage of the program. He scored very well and achieved his goal of attending a highly rated US school in Boston. We would highly recommend this SAT preparatory course to anyone who is interested in heading the US for school! Thank you, OxfordLearning!Jane Y.★★★★★
My daughters struggled with speaking English so we took them to 91做厙. After three months we saw the improvement and decided to skip Junior Kindergarten and keep them at 91做厙. Now they love to do math, write and read. As they are now ready for Grade 1, they love to learn. They both read us a story before going to bed. Ifikhar and Sabeen Ahmed Niagara FallsIfikhar and Sabeen Ahmed★★★★★
When I asked Isabella about 91做厙 said simply I just love all my new friends, Miss Lisa and I can read books now. I am so happy that I get to read to my family at bed time instead of them reading to me. Everyone at 91做厙 has done an exceptional job. She absolutely adores her peers and teacher. Thank you for making her learning experiences fun and enjoyable. Anna and Felice Valvano St. CatharinesAnna and Felice Valvano★★★★★
Due to Covid-19, my son has been unable to attend his Oxford Learning classes that he so desperately needs. But 91做厙 stepped up to the plate very quickly with its online platform. My son has been able to get all his one-on-one (or small group) classes in weekly, and for myself and him, it has been an easy set up without any hassles. Thank you to all the staff who continue to work and take their job and students to heart! The students need some normalcy in this time of uncertainty.Wendy★★★★★
Maya absolutely loves going to Little Readers Academy. Miss Lisa is a fantastic teacher and makes each child feel special. We are proud of Maya and are amazed at how much she has learned in such a short time. We tell everyone about the program; we highly recommend it to every family. Lori Torigian St. CatharinesLori Torigian★★★★★
My daughter has been attending 91做厙 Center since she was 3 years of age. I am beyond grateful for the skilled teachers who are helping my daughter read and work with her numbers. My daughter's skills and confidence have been rising as the space is a comfortable setting to learn. I would highly recommend 91做厙 to anyone requiring extra help or just looking for that extra push.Jessie M.★★★★★
Enrolling my son in 91做厙 is one of the best things Ive done for him. He has learned so much in such a short time. I feel much more comfortable and relaxed I knowing that he will be prepared to enter school in September. I feel confident that his continuing education in 91做厙will provide him with better opportunities in the future. Marisa Vanderaart St. CatharinesMarisa Vanderaart★★★★★
I am thankful for all the wonderful learning experiences and skills 91做厙 has given my daughter Angie. She has been taught many valuable skills. Seeing her yell out her numbers, letterer and words are a perfect example of what she has been taught. Marie and Angelo Marano St. CatharinesMarie and Angelo Marano★★★★★
91做厙 has helped our son become a confident student who now absolutely loves to read. His grades have increased a lot and that to us is only secondary to his increased confidence. Thank you, thank you for what youve done to help him prepare for the future. Rhonda Chopin St. CatharinesRhonda Chopin★★★★★
Over the past five years we had had our three children attend. The children were allowed to work at their own pace until they fully understood, and later it was enrichment that all children should get. The confidence and skills that our children gained from 91做厙 will stay with them for their entire lives. What a profound way to teach the love of learning. Paula Miller St. CatharinesPaula Miller★★★★★
Our daughter Emma has thoroughly enjoyed her time at 91做厙. The pleasant environment and teachers make her look forward to every time. Over the last several months we have seen dramatic improvement in her confidence and organizational skills. Paula and Dave Wilson FonthillPaula and Dave Wilson★★★★★
Its fun. They give me challenges and I love getting them. 91做厙 made me write in a neat way, unlike the earlier messy writing I did before I came. Mindie St. CatharinesMindie★★★★★
Tasks in school are becoming easier. Confidence in his ability enables Adam to meet a challenge and overcome it. 91做厙 has helped to open up his skills that were previously hidden. Youve shown him the proper way to use them. Many challenges and obstacles await any student in life. Maria and Edward Sobolak St. CatharinesMaria and Edward Sobolak★★★★★
My husband and I were feeling very frustrated that our daughter was not learning much so we enrolled her at 91做厙. She has displayed an awesome level of progress in such a short time. She is also much more confident, happy and eager to learn. The staff at 91做厙 is so very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable; all of that shows in their commitment and dedication towards our daughter. They look out for her best interest, just as much as we do. We highly recommend everyone to 91做厙. Barb and Danny Shorrock St. CatharinesBarb and Danny Shorrock★★★★★
91做厙 has helped my daughter to develop her thinking skills that should have been acquired at a much earlier age. Oxford teaches her how to break things down and analyze them more effectively. The teachers at 91做厙 definitely have given her the confidence she needed. Joan Cornelius FonthillJoan Cornelius★★★★★
My daughter is much happier and a lot more confident in her math now. Last year she was frustrated and now she doesnt give up before even giving herself a chance. She absolutely loves her 91做厙 teacher. JoAnne Caldwell St. CatharinesJoAnne Caldwell★★★★★
91做厙 has changed my sons life immensely. It has given him the confidence he needs and he doesnt have anxiety anymore. He always comes out of 91做厙 with a smile on his face. Oxford Leaning has helped him more in one year than all the help he has ever received at school. Coleen Wilson St. CatharinesColeen Wilson★★★★★
When I first came to 91做厙 my math marks were very low. Now that my marks are high I am applying to U.S. colleges for a rowing scholarship in the Ivy League. The SAT support your staff gave me also helped me achieve very high scores so I can get into some of the best schools. Thank you for what youve done for my future. Cameron Boyd Niagara FallsCameron Boyd★★★★★
A heart-felt thanks to all the staff at 91做厙. Sams work ethic has changed for the better in so many ways. You provided us as a family and with Sam in particular, the tools needed to make learning enjoyable and beneficial. Not only does he apply himself to his work, but he now will calmly rise to the challenge of difficult tasks. Lisa LaFleur and family St. CatharinesLisa LaFleur and family★★★★★
I feel 91做厙 has helped to focus my son. He is approaching his learning with such confidence now. You have empowered him. Everyone has a different style of learning and Oxford is great at identifying that and working with it. If I had known about 91做厙 earlier, I would have bypassed Montessori and come to Little Readers Academy instead. My sons time here is very well spent. In your program he accomplishes more in one hour than in a half day at school. Whenever my patients ask for resources, I recommend Oxford. Invest in the assessment and in your childs education! It will be worth it! Dr. Christina Plaskos St. CatharinesDr. Christina Plaskos★★★★★
Paul is more confident in his writing and he is more independent now. He doesnt say, I need dad to help, 91做厙 is not another tutoring centre. You actually teach the students and dont use the smoke and mirrors to keep everyone confused. You do not guess at what to do with a student. If any parent asks about the difference between 91做厙 and Sylvan or other places, they can call me and I will tell them. We wasted seven months of time at a place that was not 91做厙. We could have been at 91做厙 for that time and made so much more progress. The money we can recover, but the time we cannot. Maria and Tony Ferrara St. CatharinesMaria and Tony Ferrara★★★★★
91做厙 has helped my daughter to excel in her private school program. I cant believe that after more than a year, she still loves coming to 91做厙. I think that its a fabulous program. I wish I had done this for my older children. Patti Hinan FonthillPatti Hinan★★★★★
Brandon enjoys 91做厙. He has made new friends and really likes his teachers. Over the past few months weve seen a difference in Brandons self-esteem and confidence to do work on his own. He tries to do his homework on his own before asking for help. Having Brandon in your summer program also has helped his mind stay focused on his studies. I feel it has given him a jump-start on the new year. Brandon has a way to go. He will always be learning. With his positive attitude and enthusiasm to learn, he will be just fine. The monthly meetings with Brandons teachers have helped me understand where he is in his progress. We feel 91做厙 is very professional, yet it still gives us that feel of personal attention. Cheryl Gula St. CatharinesCheryl Gula★★★★★
91做厙 has helped my son in so many ways, of course academically, but also socially, mentally and emotionally. I consider 91做厙 our safety net. When everything else failed my son, 91做厙 was there. There are no surprises or guessing whether or not my son can read now. I dont have to keep checking up because I know that at 91做厙 there are no holes. I just let 91做厙 do it. I will be here as long as it takes. 91做厙 works! I brag about it all the time. Cathy Olsthoorn St. CatharinesCathy Olsthoorn★★★★★
I cannot say enough about what 91做厙 has done for our daughter. At school now he only receives excellent reports because she was in your Little Readers Preschool Academy. When she on the Little Miss Italia title, we knew that a lot of her poise and confidence came from her experience in Little Readers. 91做厙 is definitely worth the investment. We cannot wait until our youngest starts Little Readers. Maria Marano St. CatharinesMaria Marano★★★★★
I am so amazed at the change in my daughter Maeve since she began 91做厙 Little Readers Academy. She had some difficulty beforehand and now she constantly shows me letters in signs and newspapers and her self-esteem has grown in leaps and bounds. All of the changes have come with her attending only two days a week! Melissa N. St. CatharinesMelissa N.★★★★★
The last two years have seen Julia learn and grow at an amazing rate. Julia thoroughly enjoyed her days at Little Readers and she always comes out with a big smile. Seeing her not only learn, but also to start the process of learning to learn is something we know will serve her well as she prepares for Grade 1. Gord B. and Julia R. VinelandGord B. and Julia R.★★★★★
We originally had Chloe going to 91做厙 two mornings a week but when we noticed how much she flourished and enjoyed it, we quickly signed her up for a third morning. Chloes eyes would light up as she told us about her mornings. She used to ask if she had school in the morning during our bedtime talks and she would shriek with excitement when we told her she would go to school the next day. We think Chloe wanted to go to Little Readers every day of the week. Our experience at 91做厙 has been absolutely wonderful; youve given her a love of learning. Michelle and Gus V. St. CatharinesMichelle and Gus V.★★★★★
Great experience with Oxford learning. Helped my daughter gain confidence. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff.Karli★★★★★
I can't say enough good things about 91做厙! My son has been going to 91做厙 for almost two years now. When he started, he lacked confidence in his reading and math, and now we see huge improvements! 91做厙 has got him to where he needs to be to succeed and move forward. We are now using the online virtual lessons, which is amazing and very convenient Keri and her staff are warm, friendly and really care about the children.Rose★★★★★

Hello! My name is Emily Bogart, and I am the Centre Director and Owner of the 91做厙 Centre in St. Catharines. Growing up on a farm in southern Ontario, I developed a love for books early on, often reading to the cats, chickens and goats. While I thrived in school, my younger brother struggled due to dyslexia. His negative experiences in school profoundly influenced me to become interested in advocating for children with learning disabilities and pursue teaching.
I hold an Honours degree in Child and Youth Studies, as well as a Bachelor of Education in the Primary Junior division. More recently, in order to further enhance my teaching practice, I have taught as an Occasional Teacher for the District School Board of Niagara and completed several additional qualification courses for ongoing professional development.
I began my journey with 91做厙 in 2011 as a tutor and quickly advanced through various roles, from Little Reader Teacher to Education Coordinator for High School. In 2015, I had the opportunity to purchase the centre when the previous owner retired. From the moment I joined 91做厙, I knew I could make a significant difference in the lives of many students. At my centre, I am dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment and providing an individualized approach for all our students.
My passion for the well-being of children extends beyond academics. This past year, I completed my certification to become a foster parent for the Family and Children's Services of Niagara.
Besides education, I enjoy hiking, gardening, playing piano and spending time with my cats, my family, and friends.

Education Director
I've been with 91做厙 St. Catharines since 2018, starting out as a tutor and working with a wide range of students and subjects. In 2019, I became the French Coordinator, where I developed my skills in developing programs that fit the needs of our students. In 2020, I was thrilled to be promoted to Education Coordinator. In this role, I get to continue inspiring and guiding students across various disciplines.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a Minor in Neuroscience and Mental Health from Carleton University. I'm also a Certified Frontend Web Developer, which allows me to blend my love for science with technology.
With a strong French influence and extensive experience teaching French as a second language, I bring a unique perspective to my teaching. I studied French through high school and continued using French daily while working in a bilingual environment in Ottawa. My diverse background and warm approach make me a dedicated educator and mentor to my students.
I have taught all grade levels and a variety of subjects, including language, math, science, and French. I love building meaningful connections with my students, helping them find their passions, and setting goals for their academic and career paths. My understanding of both secondary and post-secondary education systems helps me effectively coach students to reach their goals.
