Methodology
How we turn a broad tutoring question into a sourced, useful comparison.
1. Define the reader decision
We identify the learner, jurisdiction, course or subject, decision options and the practical questions a reader must answer.
2. Locate primary context
We use applicable provincial or territorial curricula, government guidance, public registers, regulators and public institutions. Canada has no single school curriculum, so national wording does not replace local course evidence.
3. Handle price observations carefully
Where a guide includes marketplace prices, it records the named page, filters, displayed measure, profile count and access date. Small or selected samples are not generalized into a national benchmark. Listings may change after publication.
4. Synthesize, then disclose
We write original explanations and label synthesized scenarios. We disclose related-service links at the decision point.
5. Review the page
Review checks include claim-to-source fit, dates, link destinations, title and description uniqueness, canonical URL, structured data, image attribution and alternative text. Material changes update the reviewed or modified date.
