Summer 2004
 

A+ SUMMER SCHOOL

(JULY 12 – AUGUST 20)
Malibu - Woodland Hills - Los Angeles - Torrance - Monterey Park

     Greetings from A+ Educational Centers!

    It's summer and we are once again offering our popular summer programs! Our courses are geared to addressing the needs of each student. The workshops are designed to make learning both educational and fun by not only reinforcing what has already been learned, but also preparing students for the coming school year. Each student is assessed for strengths and weaknesses, and receives group and individual instruction as needed.
    6 Week “Get Ready” Workshops ($695) – These enrichment workshops are VERY reasonably priced since small groups enable us to cut the costs of individual tutoring. Moreover, workbooks, folders and manipulatives are included in the fee. Classes are held in: Woodland Hills, Malibu, Los Angeles, Monterey Park and Torrance. Each workshop meets for 2 hours a day, once a week.
    6 Week Individual Workshops ($895) - For those interested in individual summer instruction or tutoring for a specific subject on a 1-on-1 basis, we are also able to accommodate students at discounted rates in our office for the duration of our program.
Courses for Credit ($995 a semester) - enable students to earn UC approved high school credit (regular and Honors) while working at their own pace and on their own summer schedules. Whether you choose our small group enrichment workshops, individual programs, or ‘for credit’ courses, summers spent at A+ is a great way to prepare for a successful future in school! Since our classes are kept to a maximum of 8 they fill up rather quickly. To register, or for more information, please call (800) 700-2758.

    Have a fun and exiting summer,
    Jennifer Valdman, M.ED. – Director
