Why you’ll get better results.

“Most computer-based learning doesn’t follow tested, well-thought-out learning principles. It’s just textbooks on a monitor with some quizzes thrown in. It doesn’t meet the needs of the high school dropout.

“To be effective a GED® prep program should:

  • Fill in knowledge gaps
  • Shore up basic reading and comprehension skills
  • Turn around poor attitudes about education
  • Build new study habits
  • Teach time and self-management skills
  • Teach basic employability skills

“We’ve revolutionized the way the high school dropout is educated. See how we’ve done this.”



Four reasons for better results . . .


Students are motivated to learn.

Students are motivated to learn.

Two things drive motivation: interest and success. Our content is intrinsically interesting and relevant to the GED candidate. Even more important, the instructional design makes everyone successful at every step in the learning curve.

Instruction is self-paced, self-directed, and self-fulfilling.

Instruction is self-paced, self-directed, and self-fulfilling.

Students learn faster and remember more because they learn in their own space and time without the embarrassment of asking for help about things they think they should know.

Our program adapts to classroom and independent instruction.

We started with the hardest challenge first, creating a learning program that wasn’t dependent on classroom instructors. This makes it great for independent study and flexible for group instruction.

Learning disabled students can go at their own pace.

Learning disabled students can go at their own pace.

Students with learning differences are successful because material is taught in multiple learning styles. Students can move at their own pace and repeat material as needed.


Bottom Line . . .

Students learn better because they want to,
because it’s interesting and relevant to their lives,
and most important, because they are successful.

Michael's Story

One-On-One Classroom Teaching?


Michael Ormsby President

Differentiated instruction in the classroom environment is an oxymoron. How can it be possible to authentically meet individual learning needs in a classroom full of different academic levels and experiences?

This is about to change. Education ecology will be going through very powerful changes in the next decade. Not just from the emergence of technology in the classroom, but much more fundamental than that. The most far-reaching change in education will be choice. This is the real power of the internet. And it will rock the very foundation of education just as it has altered the core of other long-standing institutions.

Already students are able to make choices for education beyond what is offered by traditional educational institutions. But choice brings something else with it, discrimination. Just as a music buyer can now buy the one music track they really want online instead of a whole CD of tunes that the record company wants them to buy, the student of the future will be able to choose the educational experience that truly meets their needs rather than what a school or teacher tells them they need. Educational content is going to move out of the exclusive control of the educational institution.

Our response as educators seems to be clear. We need to lead by creating instructional content for the internet that is dramatically superior to what currently exists and what's available in most classroom learning experiences. This is the challenge. Are you up to it?
