MOL Virtual Learning
Virtual Sessions Available and Recommended
In anticipation of home stays due to cautionary measures around COVID-19, we are fully virtual. All services are being provided remotely over face-to-face video as a solution for student and instructor absences.
Long-Time Video Use
Mind Over Learning has been utilizing virtual instruction for a number of years in order to reach students across Canada and other countries. Therefore, we have an established system for virtual sessions that will make your online set up process simple and well-supported.
Our instructors are practiced in engaging students over a face-to-face video connection. Even students with weak attention controls or tendencies to disengage in learning have experienced success with our one-to-one virtual instruction.
We also already have systemized procedures in place for account set-up, calls, lesson delivery, and additional communication. Our admin staff and instructors can help you every step of the way.

Preparation for High Volumes of Virtual Students and Sessions
As soon as we suspected that social distancing would become a recommendation, we immediately prepared for the possibility that both students and instructors may need to work from their homes.
We have ensured that current and new students’ programs, lessons, and materials will be available to our team, and we began a plan to effectively process the addition of multiple students to our Virtual option.
Our first priority is quality of video instruction.
GOOGLE MEET – Our Virtual Platform
The virtual platform we use for video instruction is Google Meet. It offers features that help our instructors maximize their instructional effectiveness, such as:
- Consistent video connectivity
- Face-to-face interaction
- Ability for more than 2 participants (for our temporary 2-student classes)
- Screen share for reading and other visual materials
- Whiteboard for students and instructors to interact in a kinesthetic way
- Chat option
Will Your Child Succeed with Virtual Instruction?
Some parents are asking if their child is a good candidate for Virtual instruction. We have helped students of all ages and abilities over virtual platforms with modified support.
If parents are willing to assist with children who may be easily distracted, or have difficulty self-monitoring, self-regulating, or proceeding independently, we coach you on how to be the physical presence that we are unable to be. To start, you will be sent our “Parent Support Guide” document. During sessions, we can further assist you with verbal guidance to direct your child while maximizing our instructors’ expertise in teaching.
Your child can continue learning! We encourage you to help make this adjustment a positive experience for your child by preparing in the following ways:
- Help your child be mentally ready for the new virtual sessions – explain what it will look like
- Have the right materials purchased and ready (list provided to you upon enrollment)
- Create a learning space in your home, free from distractions and interruptions
- Opt to schedule a test call, etc.
