How individualized study works
Private study covers everything a regular AVRO course does, with the added benefit of exclusive one-to-one instruction. Your teen works directly with a teacher who can adjust assignments, materials, and the curriculum itself to match their schedule, interests, and learning style. Nothing is one-size-fits-all, because the course is built around a single student.
Scheduling is flexible, so the course can fit around the rest of your teen’s life rather than the other way around. If they have not finished their work by the end of the scheduled class time, private study allows the option to extend the course, so learning stays paced to the student rather than a clock. Friend groups of two or three students may also enroll together for a small class ratio, when a slightly larger setting works better.

Who individualized study suits
When a student needs learning shaped to them
One-to-one study is a good fit for a teen who does their best work with direct attention and room to move at their own pace.
Focused attention
With a teacher working one-to-one, there is nowhere to fall behind quietly and every question gets answered.
A pace that flexes
Flexible scheduling and the option to extend a course mean the work sets the pace, not a fixed end date.
Room for a small group
Friend groups of two or three can enroll together, keeping the ratio small while adding a bit of company.
