Fraser Academy, located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is a private, non-profit, co-educational, non-faith, non-residential school that serves children from grades 1 to 12 with language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. Its teaching methods are based on those found at the Kildonan School in New York, using the Orton-Gillingham approach. Besides daily individual tutoring for language, students take the same courses as other students in the province, in which courses a multisensory approach is also used.

Founded in 1982 in Langley, British Columbia, the school moved into its present building in the Kitsilano neighborhood of Vancouver in September 1986. The school has Smart Boards to assist and enhance the learning capabilities of senior students.
