OYAP Experiential Learning LeadOur experience at the Toronto Catholic District School Board with Christoff Kyere and ‘flightunit’ has been overwhelmingly positive and inspiring. They are extremely organized and leave no stone unturned. Every step along the process of the various events we have collaborated on with them has been fun without sacrificing the respect for time and effort. It will be the TCDSB’s pleasure to continue our relationship with ‘flightunit’ for years to come.

Program Coordinator / TDSBflightunit has provided TDSB students with very engaging programs and learning opportunities. Christoff and his team, have organized and ran our Experiential Learning Business Studies student conference and Women in Trade Conference for our Secondary and Junior High TDSB students. In both of these conferences, flightunit has brought in amazing industry speakers to engage students in future career opportunities and have facilitated very engaged and energized filled conferences that excited students about their future. flightunit also provides our board with SHSM certifications to help our students develop skills that they require to be successful as 21st century learners. flightunit’s partnership has been an asset to the Experiential Learning and OYAP department as they continue to always bring new and currently learning to our students.
Kinsi Kahin
EA / YRDSB– I just wanted to share with you that I had a long conversation today with one of the boys JM, and he was talking about the struggles of living with low socio-economic situation. He shared with me a recent offer he got to make “mad money” not in a positive way of course and he declined it. He said Ms. K, Christoff talked about that type of life style looking good right now or at the moment because you are making money but where does it get you in couple of years. JM said he remembered Christoff’s speech as he was deciding what to do and he decided to walk away from it and he decided to find other positive ways.
I was so proud of him but mostly for having Christoff make such a positive change in these boys already. This shows the amazing impact the boys group is making. They are walking away with a valuable lessons and applying to their lives. This is great!!!!!

Kyle
Student / YRDSB“To be honest, the flightunit Boys Club Group is that highlight of my Tuesdays. It is a beautifully orchestrated event that I find increasingly useful in my day to day life. It teaches us how to apply the lesson(s) to our everyday lives by inspiring us to better ourselves and others as well. Thank you flightunit for helping become a leader socially and academically.”

Instructional Leaders: Student Success & Experiential Learning / Toronto District School Board“Christoff Kyere and flightunit have organized several events for us (TDSB) over the last few years. Each event was well-organized, high energy, and exceptionally engaging for our students. Christoff and his team are enthusiastic and easy to work with and have always gone above and beyond to make the events special. I can highly recommend Christoff & flightunit!”
Andrea Thompson
Teacher / Brookview Middle School“I just wanted to thank you for a FABULOUS conference. My students are still talking about it… which says a lot for them to talk. They enjoyed the workshops and enjoyed meeting students from other schools. For me, it was great to finally meet someone who has been so patient with my school and has helped us organize groups of students to attend. Again, thank you!!”

Heather Shaw
MUSIC TEACHER / R.H. KING ACADEMY“The Music Industry Conference was a very valuable experience for our students. They took the opportunity to ask questions of the impressive panel made up of professionals from all parts of the music industry. At the end of the session, most of the students did not want to leave, and continued talking with the members of the panel. It was a very worthwhile day!”
