What the kids say:
Mark: |
“Beacon has a very different teaching style from my old school. I’ve learned
a lot more here. In my old school you had to master the material on your
own but at Beacon you can really talk and discuss the subjects. People are
more friendly here.” |
Fatima: |
“You have to have a lot of analytical skills, it’s hard but it’s better and I’ve
gotten used to it.” |
Erica: |
“The round table discussions are the best thing, everyone gets to contribute,
you can have different opinions, and you get to learn from each other.” |
Tony: |
“At this school, if you don’t understand something, the teacher will review it
with you until you do, they really care about you. All the resources in the
school are very accessible including the teachers.” |
Ethan: |
“Teachers here actually take the time to explain things, they’ll even take
their personal time out of their day for you. They teach in such a way that
we can easily comprehend what they are saying. The way they explain is
clear and coherent. Teaching class around one table is good because it really
encourages you to speak your mind without being judged and it makes you
think.” |
