Testimonials

I think it’s hard learning online for the first time, but the teachers made it fun and easier.

One strength I had was my work ethic and if I did in fact know what was going on in the assignment, I would make sure I would get it done.

I am good at memorizing information for tests/quizzes. I like writing down notes as well; it helps with memorizing, too.

Fisher River Cree Nation

I like class discussions with teachers and students a lot and doing Kahoots. Overall, I like online learning because it gives me more time for other things that need to be done in the comfort of my home. Plus, it does give a lot more freedom and responsibility.

I’m very happy that I was able to learn on at my own pace especially because I have a hard time understanding thing. It was a bit hard for me to juggle and keep up with the courses I took this semester but I scaled through.

I can work at home and do my work in bed with a cup of coffee, but the challenge is that I have to pay attention more since I would be doing this online.

I have always had trouble in public school due to not being the best at understanding a lot of things and not being able to read and spell at the level that all the other kids my age were at it was honestly embarrassing, so this opportunity I get to be able to just learn without feeling embarrassed it just feels great.
