Science
“TPS Biology has been my favorite science class that I have ever taken. The enthusiasm of my teacher brought a new love for science. The material was easy to understand, and presented in such a way that made it easy for me to remember. Though the classes were virtual, the teacher sometimes divided us into groups to study and work together. Whenever I had any questions, my teacher always answered them quickly and thoroughly.”

English Writing and Literature
“I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to write better, loves reading, and enjoys having a fun and lively teacher. This class has really helped my writing skills grow and introduced me to numerous awesome books and short stories I would never have known about or thought to read. Our teacher pushed us to write our best and gave very helpful and encouraging comments on our writing. At the beginning of class, I chose to become an honors student and never regretted it. Though being an honors student entailed a little bit more homework, it never felt overwhelming. If you do decide to take this English 3 course, you will have an epic and exciting school year.”

English Writing and Literature
“The Confident Composition Course has a unique approach to writing. The teacher did an admirable job with the curriculum. This course inspires students to become better writers by using excellent literature and essays as inspiration. I learned to read more thoughtfully, looking for the author’s techniques and being inspired to use some of these techniques in my own writing. The teaching of different concepts was always very helpful, and because of this course, my grammar skills have grown tremendously. I learned to love writing more because of this course and the teacher’s excellent facilitation of the course material.”

Art
“This class was so much fun! Even though it was challenging at points, it barely felt like school. There were so many resources for helping me do better, from the actual class time, to more videos, to the teacher giving me advice through email, to the class mates giving me suggestions and ideas. Throughout the year we learned to understand design and its elements, build things out of our imagination, and work out design problems. If you like to design, draw, do any type of art, figure out problems, or work with computers, this class is for you!”
