Amanda A Review of FLVS
I started FLVS under certain health circumstances,...
I started FLVS under certain health circumstances, it wasn't a choice I wanted, but had to be done. FLVS began pretty easy with attaining 3 assignments a week per course. However, then I got to the middle of the first semesters and things began to slow down and the pressure was rising. Teachers are nice, but hard to reach some times. I always would call, email, and text to make sure they get my message. They end up responding a day or two after when I no longer need the help. Assignments are long, pointless, and do not help me learn. I am not saying this because I do not want to do the work, but because I don't learn from it. It basically goes: read lesson, struggle do assignment, and forget. Because it got tougher, it caused a major strain in my personal life with my parents and this situation did not help at all with my health. I would get withdrawn from classes because I did not submit the minimum three. I understand you need to work, but I wanted to work at my own pace. That was the whole reason of the homeschooling with FLVS in the first place. I do not think that should be their saying as it is very deceiving. My health has been all over the place, arguments daily with my parents. Nothing good has come out of FLVS. I have always been an A/B student with all honors. My parents have always expected only the best from me. Now, i'm getting C's D's and even F's because I just don't understand the way they teach. I guess i'm just used to traditional schooling. I stand today still finishing my last course with major issues trying to maintain a B. Unfortunately I haven't learned a thing all year because the stress with the problems this has caused is too distracting. The point is, unless you want huge stress, and even more health issues, and your relationship with your parents to go down hill, do NOT do FLVS.
