School For Independent Learners

Tip: look a the filtered reviews Unilocal is hiding from this page. All five star reviews from former students. The school declined to pay Unilocal to promote its business, so this is how Unilocal has chosen to feature the reviews. Better yet, check out reviews from a website that actually rates schools based on academic merit:

I was a stupid kid in high school. I got kicked out of public school my senior year. With nowhere else to turn, one of my friends recommended SIL. They were able to help me navigate the complicated system, provide me with an excellent instructor, and got me a high school diploma. I am so grateful for this institution.
They work around YOUR SCHEDULE. You decide how many hours you go to class and when. I was able to finish a whole semester of high school in 6 weeks, doing most of my work at home. This school is only expensive if you can’t get your brat to do their HW!!! If you want to pass/​graduate, you need to do the assignments that you are assigned! Otherwise, you will still have to do the assignment in class, which is more expensive, and will ultimately take longer. This is a REAL SCHOOL after all.
I was once a reject that society had given up on. Now I am on track to graduate from UC Berkeley with a degree in computer science. I couldn’t have made such a change in my life if it weren’t for School for Independent Learners.

All depends. If you get a good match, it’s not bad to get tutored and get credit at the same time. You could pay the same rate for a tutor elsewhere without the credits, so why not get the credits? However, if you don’t get a matched with a tutor, it will feel like a rip off. The environment is not the prettiest or the cleanest, but there are some hard working folks here. It is fairly expensive and the «average» person would find it hard to afford their services, so I’m knocking off a star for that. Park in front of school on San Antonio. You can also take a break and get some tasty pastries down a few doors at Esther’s German Bakery.
