Class experience
This course has been successful for 2 decades in different formats. 1.

Please understand that almost 80% of the students that will attend this class are "told to participate" by their parents. I have had a lot of success in winning the kids over in the first session to stay engaged in both sessions. I would ask for your grace in the "transformation" period of becoming responsible... this course has proven data and parent feedback that it can work BUT it is not a magic pill.
