Skill Samurai engages students in supplemental Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) education, giving them real academic advantage and the skills and motivation, they need to succeed in life.

Parents love us because Skill Samurai provides real academic advantage to their children. Kids love us because Skill Samurai lets them interact with technology in a hands-on environment that feels just like playing with friends. Learning has never been this much fun!

Year-round programs, summer camps, and learning labs, prepare students for college, internships, and careers in: Programming, Game Development, Design, 3D Printing and Robotics.

Resources

Mental Health

Overview: Try to keep things in perspective. We all have families, jobs, bills and people that depend on us. Sometimes its overwhelming. Some quick tricks are to put things down on a list (so you eliminate the worry of forgetting about them), and try to slow down in this hectic world we live in. 🙂

Stress

Overview: Try to manage stress knowing that there will always be some stress – as in limited doses, it does help us. Try to eat healthy, exercise, practice deep breathing (yoga and meditation) and find time for yourself. Remember that you are not alone, and finding connection through community is critical to managing and maintaining healthy levels of stress.

Kids Resources

Overview: Kids are amazing. The best parents in the world are at time at their wits end. Try to remember that the kids are growing and evolving every day. They will not be this age forever, so try to find that silver lining. We are all in this boat together. Reach out if you need help.

Film.ca

Film.ca

Oakville Dad: Jeff Knoll and Jason Speers

If you’re in Oakville, you must go see a classic theater at film.ca on Speers road near Kerr St.

Film.Ca Cinemas, formerly Encore Cinemas, opened our Oakville location on December 30, 2005. At the time, we also operated the Upper Canada Place Cinemas in Burlington and the Central Parkway Cinemas in Mississauga.

Due to the need (and extraordinary cost) to convert to digital and challenges getting first run films, we closed Burlington and Mississauga and focused on the Oakville theatre.

We changed our name to Film.Ca Cinemas in 2014 as part of a new marketing plan and to lose the name Encore, which was more associated with older films and not first run.

Jeff Knoll founded Encore Cinemas following a visit to a competitor’s theatre in 1997 to see the Disney Movie Flubber. He had decided to take his family and two of his children’s friends to the movies and was shocked when the experience cost more than $120!
