Misconceptions of an Online School…

1. You won’t get the same attention: No need to worry about that. Every subject has a fully qualified teacher that is eager and happy to help you with any questions you might have regarding the subject.

2. You are on your own: This cannot be further from the truth. If you are struggling with ANYTHING at the online school such as: sticking to your schedule, uploading documents, or uncertainty regarding what to study. All you need to do is ask.

Every week your teacher will communicate essential information with you to help keep you accountable and on track.

3. You won’t be able to interact with peers/teachers face-to-face: There will be certain tasks given where you need to find out what your peers say or think about a topic. There will be Skype interactions, online group calls that you are welcome to join, and you can also schedule a one-on-one session with your teacher.
