ADVANTAGE English Path is available year round. Families can contact Mrs. Geans anytime for enrollment. Students can continue this program until they are age-eligible for ADV Prep. If there are spaces available and everyone on the waiting list is accommodated, Mrs. Geans may offer ADV Prep spaces early to older ADV Path students who are high achievers.
ADVANTAGE English Prep & ADVANTAGE English Plus spaces are scheduled from a waiting list. New families should request enrollment in February or March when their child is in 6th grade.
ADVANTAGE English Pro is available year-round, and spaces are always open for these clients. Students who are/were enrolled in ADVANTAGE English are given priority. It’s a suite of 2-8 classes (or more), depending on what is needed. College essay clients are most successful (and less stressed!) when classes begin in June and work through the summer. This way, the essays are finished before senior year begins. For many students, it just helps to know if what they are doing is “going in the right direction” and “hitting the mark” to impress a college admissions committee. The classes provide essential feedback and guidance to build a student’s overall confidence and skill.
PRIORITY: Enrollment priority will be given to current and returning students. If a returning or current student has a sibling who has a sibling who wishes to enroll. that sibling will also be given priority over new families.
FREQUENCY: New students are typically scheduled for weekly classes, but every other week is also available. ADVANTAGE English Pro clients may need several classes within a short time frame, depending on their needs and deadlines.
TIME ZONES: There is increased availability during school hours (Pacific time). If you live in the Mountain, Central, or Eastern time zones, I will have more flexible availability for afternoon scheduling.
SUMMER IS BEST: The summer program has lots of flexibility and availability. It is easier to get into the program during the summer. The majority of students weekly spaces. It is the best time to start the program.
