I love FLVS, and am so confused as all of the low ratings. I'm in 10th grade and have been using the site full time for awhile now. It does take hard work and dedication, but it's an excellent opportunity to be independent and gain an education that is tailored to your specific needs. Teachers are busy, but they do their best to help with whatever you may need so long as you ask. If you are not prepared to take on the task, you will suffer, and that's no one else's fault but your own. I have succeeded on this sight more than I have anywhere else in my entire life. Flvs has changed my life and the way I look at learning, I love it now! It has opened the door to so many different opportunities I never thought possible. Because of this site I have straight A's and SO much less anxiety when it comes to school. My advice to people struggling with DBA's is PRACTICE. It is nerve racking answering questions over the phone with your teacher, but the more you do it, the easier it becomes. Flvs has prepared me for the real world in so many ways. From phone etiquette and being confident in my own skills, to functioning on my own and helping myself without the help of others. Flvs does take a mature, driven mindset, but I see a lot of reviews that seem more like the student is upset due to the fact that they weren't succeeding verses flvs doing something wrong. Bottom line, online learning is tough at times, there's no sugar coating it. But school is not supposed to be easy all the time. If your someone who doesn't enjoy working independently or lacks motivation/ drive to complete assignments etc. this may not be for you, but it's amazing for someone who is willing to take on the challenge. Things will not just be handed to you, and they shouldn't be. It's SCHOOL, you will be required to actually put forth the effort that it takes to succeed, but that's with anything in life. And if you do, your results will grow to be worthwhile.
