Summit College

Summit was founded in 2001 by John Spencer. Spencer is an Ontario board-certified school teacher with a background in psychology, 12 years training and leadership experience with the Department of National Defence, and a variety of labour industry experiences. This broad foundation culminated to inform and shape the Summit model and teaching systems. Summit operates using a learning-centred model and humanistic principles - most notably: individuals are unique and therefore require individualized learning approaches. Today Summit provides both after-school tutoring and adult training to communities in 12 cities across Southern Ontario. Summit infuses its holistic and ever-evolving learning systems with principles of Brain Plasticity, cognitive-behavioural science, and proven personal managing strategies, all of which help to foster truly optimal learning and life-long success available only at Summit.
