Our Students

One-to-One Instruction is Effective for Many Learners

Because one-to-one instruction fully individualizes the learning process, it effectively addresses a wide range of learning styles and needs. Brightmont offers this successful approach in full-time private school, individual courses, and tutoring. Our 1-to-1 instructional model means our students feel more confident and better prepared for life after graduation.

Students with learning disabilities

Brightmont Academy offers a new beginning for students with learning disabilities, attention deficits, emotional issues, health concerns or other special needs. Our one-to-one instruction fully accommodates the learning styles and needs of each individual. Students with learning difficulties work with dedicated teachers who have the expertise required to challenge and encourage them.

Students struggling in school

One-to-one instruction at Brightmont offers students the focused step-by-step support that helps them:

Graduate from high school
Complete a course successfully
Gain important academic and study skills

By using a mastery-based approach within the one-to-one format, teachers may provide remedial instruction when needed, and students gain confidence knowing that they will not move ahead in the curriculum until they are ready.

Students needing a more flexible schedule

Brightmont offers one-to-one instruction on a flexible schedule for students who may simply need an alternative to the structure of a traditional school. Teachers are sensitive to students’ academic and personal circumstances.

Students looking to advance

Students seeking a greater challenge experience a more rigorous approach at Brightmont Academy. Our one-to-one instruction allows students to progress at an accelerated pace and take more demanding courses, such as Honors and Advanced Placement®.

Gifted students are also well served in Brightmont Academy, as our one-to-one instruction and mastery-based approach allow students to progress more quickly and to access curricula at the right challenge level. Brightmont provides customized programs for gifted and twice exceptional (2E) students, addressing both academic and emotional needs.

Athletes

Brightmont offers flexibility to work around competition schedules, and our academic offerings include many courses that have been approved by NCAA for students wanting to meet initial eligibility requirements.

Performers

Highly accomplished musicians, actors, models, and dancers may find balancing school with a demanding rehearsal and performance schedule challenging. Brightmont Academy offers the flexibility to schedule classes around these commitments.

Homeschooled students

Brightmont Academy provides many supports to families who are homeschooling, or who are transitioning out of a homeschool situation. All Brightmont instruction is done in a one-to-one setting, allowing maximum flexibility to coordinate with the parent on scheduling, curriculum choice, and the number of subjects studied at any given time.

The student experience

Students at Brightmont Academy grow academically, emotionally and socially:

Academic Impact: Once a student begins class, they get the focused one-to-one attention of their teacher, allowing them to flourish academically. Our mastery-based model ensures that students understand course content before moving ahead with their teacher. As a supplement to one-to-one sessions, students can also take advantage of our supervised Homework Studio on campus where they can get help completing their homework.

Emotional Growth: As students make academic progress, they gain confidence and become more motivated to learn. Students’ stress and anxiety decrease, and they feel supported and cared for by the Brightmont staff.

Social Environment: The teachers and campus director serve as mentors for the student, and provide a positive environment to foster close relationships. Between classes, students socialize in the hallways, where they can meet friends and relax. The entire campus has lunch at the same time to encourage a social environment. Outside the classroom, students participate in school clubs, celebrate special events, and join in charitable efforts.
