AP, Science

“This course greatly added to my knowledge of biology and will be a huge help in going into college with a strong background in biology. It was very interesting and helpful to learn the AP curriculum mixed with a Christian worldview on topics such as global warming and evolution. The course was very challenging, but not impossible and I was able to keep up with all the assignments for this class along with my other classes while not feeling too overwhelmed. It prepared me well for the AP exam by practicing for the test all year.”

TPS

“We are grateful for TPS and the opportunities they provided for our daughter. She was able to join several service trips and be a part of the clay magazine. She made some dear friends along the way. All of her teachers were passionate and knowledgeable about the subjects they taught, and they were all kind and caring to their students. We appreciate how much care, attention, understanding, motivation and constructive feedback they provided to our daughter.”

Science

“I would highly recommend Health and Wellness to anyone interested in obtaining a foundation on how the human body functions and how to take care of it. During this class, I have grown incredibly in my knowledge in so many of the world’s current health concerns and topics of discussion ranging from smoking to nutrition. The teacher thoroughly addresses concepts in a cohesive, structural, and highly informed manner. Health and Wellness is sure to bring awareness to countless ways in which you can both improve your wellness and that of those around you.”

English Writing and Literature

“I would recommend this course to others because it really challenges you to become a better writer. We learn so much grammar, read so many books, learn how to annotate better, and become stronger writers all in just a short period of time.”

Science

“This course is extremely fun. It was incredibly informative and I learned a lot. I learned things I had not known before and I learned new aspects to things I already knew. I have always loved marine life and animals in general but I learned so much more about marine resources, marine life I didn’t know as much about, and performed experiments I hadn’t before. The teacher is the best teacher I have ever had and she is really good at encouraging and answering questions. She is very good at answering questions in and out of class and is just really fun to have as a teacher. She makes things lively and I don’t feel like I am just in a lecture but rather that I am experiencing the ocean at my kitchen counter. It is awesome and I highly recommend it to anyone remotely interested in anything marine.”

Math

“We pulled our boys out of public school, and were thankful that TPS has a excellent math program. The older boys have graduated from college with a Computer Science and a Mechanical Engineering degree. Our last son will probably follow his brothers, thanks to the TPS math teachers…”

English Writing and Literature

“This class is a very insightful experience. I learned a lot about grammar and the six writing traits. Even with the things that were a review for me, I still learned something new about that topic in this class. The teacher is very knowledgable and gives very helpful feedback to help our writing become stronger. Overall, the class is very informative and a great help to grow your writing over the summer.”

“Before taking this class, really studying effectively was a complete mystery to me. I was a good student and always received good grades, but I just plowed through the information without anything really sticking in my head for more than a few weeks. My parents enrolled me in Study Skills the summer before my freshman year of high school, and after the first week, my study habits were completely changed — for the better! After the course ended, I could take notes using various methods, read actively to understand, and retain what I had learned. There is no way I can describe how much this course benefited me or how much I enjoyed it. The textbook was informative, helpful, and readable, the teacher was totally engaging and always ready to answer questions, and all the information I learned will serve me well for the rest of my life! Thank you TPS!”

Global Languages

“As a student who has taken both Russian 1 and Russian 2, I can confidently say Russian 3 provides the same exceptional quality as the two previous courses. The instructor continues to provide excellent teaching and remains truly devoted to her students. Learning the Russian language is not a simple task, yet she provides lots of easy, fun, and engaging ways to learn Russian. Additionally, she cultivates a positive and encouraging environment, which has allowed me speak Russian confidently. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning Russian, and I would highly recommend taking any of her courses.”
