English Student Testimonial Before I started this course, my writing was horrible! I was even afraid to turn in writing assignments. By the end of the quarter, my writing skills improved a lot. Now, I’m a much more confident writer. Thanks, Mr. Prior!
Math Student Testimonial Fractions used to scare me to death! But Mr. Green’s enthusiasm and the way he explains things have helped me overcome my fears. Mr. Green, you’re the man!
Reading Student Testimonial At first, I hated reading because I couldn’t understand what I was reading. Because of Ms Vinson, I understand the main idea and have even begun to like reading. I appreciate you sticking by me, Ms Vinson.

English & Reading Testimonial Since I decided to go back to college, I never thought I would have to take remedial English or reading. But after years of being out of school, people tend to forget things. Mrs. Woods has a good-hearted spirit, and her teaching style is fun and fresh.
