Our Story

All three of EquaLearn’s original founders were either first or second generation immigrants. As such, they all have a personal understanding of the difficulties that new immigrants or refugees to Canada may face. Moving to a new country in search of a better lifestyle or greater opportunities often comes with both economic and social challenges. In particular, challenges such as a new language or a new culture can be serious obstacles to a child’s educational experience. Knowing the wide-ranging importance of education, the three founders of EquaLearn were brought together by their interest in eliminating these educational barriers as much as possible.
