When Class Lets Out
Class is dismissed at 3:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Instructors are available for one-on-one sessions if the students need to talk between 3:30 PM and 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday.
Detailed schedule and guidance on how to spend out of class time are provided. Most of the time, the instructor will be lecturing on topics, but some days during the week, the students will be given topics to study and prepare a lecture for the class the following day.
Weekends
Students will usually be given topics to study over the weekend so they can prepare a lecture for the class on Monday morning.
Students are also encouraged to spend their weekends going over material they are weak on and doing lots of practice questions.
To accomplish the full benefit of our program students are required to attend all sessions and complete homework daily.
join us!
