Class Ethos Policy

​

Be Positive: 

It’s important to bear in mind that a poor attitude in class can quickly demoralize others trying to learn already dense topics. Any student ready to learn is welcome in our classes but we will not compromise our high quality learning environment for a single negative student. 

 

Keep it Constructive:

All course critique should be delivered in a professional tone with professional sentence structure to avoid being interpreted as openly rude. Fault finding or fishing for errors distracts focus from learning. Compliments are always welcome to balance it out. Speak only for yourself. Its inappropriate to discuss or recommend competing exam prep to class mates. 

 

Avoid Commanding:

Class commanding and surveys should be left to the instructor. Your role in class is as an attendee or student. Shutting down, continuing, or changing topics is determined by the instructor. We believe it’s important to maintain this hierarchy to foster a healthy learning environment specially for adult learners.

 

Be Tolerant:

The hundreds of tables over hundreds of pages of syllabi are updated rigorously to deliver the most up to date exam content. New tables are also generated live in class which are intended to be included in the syllabus. We find the benefits of this approach out-weigh withholding of content due to minute or a small quantity of typos. Our high pass rates are indicative of the superiority of this approach. Student surveys mirror our thoughts on this. 

 

Don't Monopolize:

Lecture time is for all enrolled students. Ask targeted questions on the topic at hand. Scan ahead to ensure you are not jumping topics. Avoid asking excessive questions or sourced mock questions during lecture. It's best to enroll in private tutoring for individual attention. 

​

Don't Solicit:

Do not solicit other students for email addresses or lecture notes. Respect the privacy of other attendees. 

Students are not permitted to conduct class surveys. We have a 'no haggling' policy.
