The Goode Learning Legacy: Our Story, Mission, & Vision

Goode Learning, formerly Goode Educational Services, was established in 2008 with a passion for education, and has been empowering students across Ontario with premium educational services. Over the years, we've marked significant milestones, proving our commitment to excellence in teaching and learning.


Our mission guides us in providing a comprehensive approach to education, focusing on both subject-specific and strategies-specific learning. We aim to not only support our clients academically but also help them develop necessary skills for independent learning.


Our vision for the future is clear - to be an integrated professional service complementing the education system, ensuring equal access to learning opportunities for all students. We remain steadfast in our dedication to helping students explore their vast learning potential and become the best they can be.

Susan Goode

OCT, B.Ed., B.A. (Hons)

Director & CEO

Passionate about teaching and learning and advocating for students of all abilities, Susan travels across the province working with students and their families. She has a double specialist in Special Education and English as a Second Language, her principals' qualifications, and is a member in good standing with the Ontario College of Teachers. To date, she's been into 30 different school boards, and countless private schools and post-secondary institutions advocating for the needs of her students, including those with special learning needs and brain injuries. Most recently, she has started working with Indigenous communities in Northern Ontario, bringing creative programming and supports to students and families who require a different and more personal approach to teaching and learning.


Susan has been a teacher for over 24 years, having spent her first 11 years in the public education system. She now dedicates her time to Goode Learning and supporting her independent school, GlenOak Academy through their Indigenous SOAR Program in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario.
