Fall 2009 Orientation Sessions for New Students:

Session 1 Students: August 24 - August 27
Mondays-Thursdays 9am - 12pm or 5pm - 8pm

Session 2 Students: October 19 - October 22 ALL NEW STUDENTS
Mondays-Thursdays 9am - 12pm or 5pm - 8pm

An orientation session and testing are required for all new students to register for classes. If you are planning to attend morning classes, plan to attend the morning orientation session. If you are planning to attend evening classes, plan to attend the evening orientation session. If you are planning to attend afternoon classes, plan to attend either morning or evening sessions. This is an opportunity to learn more about classes and how you learn best as well as meet other students and make a positive start to your GED Preparation. Students will also register for classes in the orientation sessions.

Classes are conducted in short term sessions. This does not necessarily mean that you will be done in 5 or 6-weeks! This is a good time to evaluate your progress and continue towards your goal! We only admit new students at the beginning of a 6-week session.

We offer three types of instruction:

• Group Instruction: Everyone is working on the same subject. More of a traditional classroom setting.

• Independent Study: You are working at your own speed, on subjects you need to work on, with the help of the instructor. In this structured class, your teacher is always available to help you if you have any questions or just need an explanation of the material. Independent Study is recommended if you only need to work on one subject or perhaps you need more individualized attention.

• Reading/Math Support: Generally, these classes are by recommendation only. If we feel that you would succeed better in a small class setting and perhaps, at a slower pace, we will suggest a support class.
