and all these things shall be added unto you."

The class is amazing! It's a great class to take, it's only a week long but you learn a lot. The kids and the teacher are fantastic.

Elena

I think it's awesome! I have a hard time retaining information, and Miss Camille made it really easy. I love how much we discussed things and included everyone in conversations. It really makes you think!

Maddie
Government

I had no writing experience, but now I am confident and can push myself. Thank you, Miss Camille! You're an AWESOME teacher!

Lauren
Lost Tools of Writing

The class was extremely interesting, and I enjoyed learning so much varied and useful information in such a short time! I think I will retrain my knowledge more than I would in a semester-long class. I loved the discussions and the real world examples. All of the concepts were far easier to understand with these tools.

This is the most engaging class I have taken, mostly because of the discussions!

I really enjoyed your government class, it taught me a LOT! I love your teaching style too! I always felt relaxed in class. Thank you!

Margot
Government

Thank you so much for teaching Government! I found this class very enjoyable, and interesting, even though I hadn't been expecting to care about government. I loved the discussions, and you kept me interested from start to finish! I definitely learned many new things and now government and politics make much more sense.
