SILVER: Eaton Arrowsmith
Vancouver, White Rock, eatonarrowsmith.com Our schools operate on the principle of neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to strengthen over time with targeted training. This sets us apart from other schools for students with learning difficulties. We don’t teach children, teens and adults to work around their weaknesses. Instead, we help them address them.
