All of our teachers are thoroughly trained in online instruction methods. The majority have similar experiences to our students, years of experience online, and/or in brick-and-mortar schools. They all share a passion for making a difference and helping students learn in the ways that work best for them.
Our teachers have been trained by us in the current educational Best Practice Strategies. This allows our teachers to leverage the latest educational technologies to meet each individual student's need. Besides this extensive training, our teachers participate in ongoing professional development, so they stay current with advancements in online instruction.
