Private School "Express" reviews

Nikita

I am studying at the Express School for the third academic year. Before that, he studied full-time, but by the 8th grade the number of lessons at school and homework exceeded all conceivable limits. There was no time left for hobbies, sports and just for relaxation. Due to the fact that, in addition to lessons, in high school, it is necessary to devote time to preparing for the exam and exam, I decided to try the distance learning format. Of course, it is not suitable for everyone. But for me it turned out to be a way out. I myself can plan the time of classes, I can not do seven or eight subjects every day, but choose one or two, study material on them for the whole quarter or six months and pass certification from the teacher. And only then proceed to the following subjects. It’s much more convenient and faster, you can finish the year much earlier. Or you can evenly distribute the load for the whole year so that every day after classes there will be enough free time. The biggest advantage is that I decide how much time I need to devote to one or another subject, quickly go through light or known material, and devote more time to subjects that are difficult for me. Programs in all subjects were created correctly: studying the theory of textbooks and video lessons, working out the material in training tests and practical work, then solving assessment tests and verifying the teacher in each subject for a quarter. There is a remote connection with each teacher: you can always ask a question on an incomprehensible topic. The teachers are very polite and friendly. At certification, the teacher always sees whether you were engaged or not. If he was engaged, he will never fail, he will explain the incomprehensible. If you didn’t do it, you won’t pass the certification; there is nobody to write off. Therefore, the grades in this school are only your own, honest; better or worse - it depends only on you. Therefore, this format is suitable only for those who have a motivation to study and at least a little independence. But, in my opinion, it's worth it. The lack of communication with classmates must, of course, be compensated for by communication in other groups. But for this, both time and strength remain. But the most important thing is that the learning outcomes for me personally were more obvious, the material with this form is absorbed better and more calmly. It is good that now there is such a form of training.
