Who are we?

Sister Sophie is one of the top elite training educational institutes in the Toronto area and advocates liberal arts thinking. We integrate advanced education sources in Ontario in order to improve our students’ English language accuracy, critical thinking abilities and overall competitiveness in Canadian society and abroad. Our goal is to guide students toward self-realization, and ultimately to nurture breakthroughs in their learning paths.

Sister Sophie prides itself on its amendment of the BCC (British Columbia Curriculum) & CCSS (Common Core States Standards), which is what we base our lessons from. We believe it to be the best representation of a well-rounded learning experience and means a combination of creative, logical, and observation-based activities, and assignments. We hope students think ‘outside the box’ and challenge their thinking with different methods of communication and a variety of literature. Doing so, will help students achieve academic success for years to come.

Sister Sophie Ltd. is an academic education company with 13 years’ experience which has served more than 1100 students. Sister Sophie is based in the Greater Toronto Area with two campuses, one for the York region and another for Toronto. We advocate liberal arts thinking and currently provide literacy and literature programs to more than 300 students in both Canada and China. We also integrate higher education sources in Ontario in order to improve our students’ English language accuracy, critical thinking and overall abilities for effective participation in Canadian society.

Our history is one of academic success, particularly with respect to our students achievement in reading, writing and their understanding of literature, which we believe is key to their overall learning ability.

We have created a friendly community among our students, parents and teachers. Most students who join us have stayed with us throughout their schooling. An increasing number of students are joining us everyday.
