Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is the class size? What is the student:instructor ratio?
A: We cap our student to instructor ratio at 9:1. In other words, for every 9 students, we have at least 1 instructor present. This helps ensure that each student is able to receive plenty of individualized attention throughout the course.

Q: What if I can't attend one of the classes? What is the makeup policy?
A: No worries, we record every session, so every student can stay on pace. All students and parents will have access to the course material including recordings for the following year.

Q: How much homework can my student expect to receive per week?
A: Students can expect to receive 4-5 hours of homework between sessions, for a total of 32-40 hours of assignments outside of the class.

Q: Whom does this curriculum apply to?
A: This curriculum is geared towards students entering the math course the following year or summer. For example, if a student is currently in Algebra 1, but will be starting Geometry next Fall or this Summer, the Geometry bootcamp is most appropriate.

Q: Is there a sibling discount?
A: Yes! We have a $100 discount per family, for any families with two siblings who are enrolled in any of our bootcamps in the same year. Please email us to receive this discount.
