- Weekly live classes with mentor and peers
- Live interaction via webcam, mic, and chat box

#### Classic & Honors Versions

In many live courses, we offer both a Classic and Honors format. Students in both versions meet in the same live class sessions, but students in Honors courses have about 30% more readings and assignments, including projects that are more challenging. Students are welcome to enroll in whichever version fits best for them and can switch within the first twenty-one days of the semester. Honors courses are not available in the self-paced format.

- Freedom to participate in other programs and extracurriculars
- Freedom to go deeper in other areas of interest
- Time to process what you’re learning without being overwhelmed by assignments and readings
- Opportunities for deeper readings, discussions, and analysis
- Challenging assignments exploring themes, lessons, and characters in the liberal arts
- Freedom to thoroughly explore the subject material

#### Self-Paced Courses

If your student works well independently or needs more flexibility to work around other  
activities, our self-paced courses are an ideal option and provide a richer, more personal experience than many other asynchronous online courses. Self-paced courses include the following benefits:

- Engaging recordings from our best live classes
- Interaction with peers through online forums
- Access to weekly mentor office hours
- Streamlined assignments for meaningful learning
- Same high-quality readings as live classes
- Same personalized feedback as live classes

#### Independent Studies Courses

In high school [Math](https://www.williamsburglearning.com/curriculum/high-school/math/independent-math-courses/), [Fine Arts](https://www.williamsburglearning.com/curriculum/high-school/fine-arts/independent-fine-arts/), [PE](https://www.williamsburglearning.com/curriculum/high-school/pe-health/independent-pe/), and [Electives](https://www.williamsburglearning.com/curriculum/high-school/electives/independent-electives/), we offer independent courses so students can earn academic credit for learning from a third-party curriculum provider. Some students prefer alternative math programs; others put in long hours practicing musical instruments, competing on an athletic team, or participating in internships. Students can earn credit for these and other activities by enrolling in an Independent Studies course, provided they fulfill the course requirements (see the above course links for full details).

- Earn credit for things you are already doing and enjoy
- Access to a mentor while working independently to complete education hours

Why This Class

Life revolves around relationships—and so does your student’s future. The ability to develop healthy, vibrant connections and avoid toxic ones is essential for their long-term happiness and success. This course helps your student learn what it takes to create and sustain great relationships.

Mentors in this course begin by guiding students to identify what makes relationships work—and what doesn’t. Next, students reflect on their existing relationships, then read, write, discuss, and experiment on a quest to understand and improve them. Students also invite close friends and family members to complete an interpersonal analysis survey which opens their eyes to how others see them. Finally, students analyze and apply what they’ve learned to enhance their relationships with themselves and others.

By the end of this course, students gain the knowledge and skills needed to build and maximize relationships in every area of life. They are more emotionally intelligent and able to enjoy their time with the people who matter most.
