Experiencia de clase

Beginning high school is both exciting and nerve-wracking. Adjusting to a new school environment with new expectations and opportunities is sometimes a challenging prospect - especially when you realize that college is just on the horizon.

Enroll your child in this six-week course to set them up for success and feel more prepared to walk in the doors of their high school on day one!

Students will receive a variety of strategies from a professional educator who has helped many students build their college resumes to get into the college of their dreams!


***The differences between the self-paced and the live class (aside from the obvious!):
- The live class will provide particular graduation requirements for the individual student; the self-paced will direct the student on where to find their specific requirements on the Internet
- The live class will provide insight into particular colleges of interest for the individual student (up to 3 schools); the self-paced class will provide general information provided by many of the top schools in the USA
