Nadine Soliman

An ACT Microschools Parent

Moving to learning online, my children were able to benefit from a new dimension of learning. The experienced teachers at ACT provided one-to-one support to those in need which personalized the learning experience even while distanced. My 7 year old would look forward to engaging with them in his online class discussions and my 11 year old was guided to explore more independent learning from that of a traditional all school setting. Overall it was lovely to see my children able to sustain relationships online through this new learning journey. I would like to thank the tremendous efforts of ACT teachers in creating and delivering these timely courses the past few months; it helped us as a family feel supported in a time of chaos.

"I loved the rubrics and the self-assessments at the end of each of the 9 steps. The fables ebook, and the extra resources are truly well-thought and useful. 
I feel empowered and inspired to work with my son, who is already interested in writing. I am positive that he would enjoy working on a fable of his own, and check his work one step at a time."
The way that course is designed respects each child's individual pace and capabilities, and I am certain that I would go back to check the videos and material several times as I work with my son.
