I've been occasionally tutoring my nephew for the past few years. Based on that I'm pretty skeptical of online learning for kids. A lot of exercises and tasks are never done, because it's much easier to pretend that you're studying online than it is in person. It leads to less experience with the exercises. This isn't all that bad in subjects like History or Literature, because if you miss out on ancient Rome then you simply don't know about ancient Rome. However if you miss out on mathematics or chemistry, then it's going to affect you down the line. What you learn a year from now is most likely built upon what you're learning today. It makes learning future topics harder. Online learning for kids might work, but I think it needs to come with a change of teaching materials. Printed out workbooks and exercises from textbooks written into your notebooks don't work well with online learning. Teachers don't really have a good way of getting kids to consistently do the exercises they need to do. Teachers only have so much time. I'm not in Canada though. Perhaps the situation is better over there.
