Online learning

Online learning has become more widely accepted and sought after in recent years. More and more students are finding that the traditional brick-and-mortar style of learning doesn’t fit their needs and they are looking to make a change that benefits them both in and out of the classroom. If you’re looking to take charge of your education and steer yourself in a new direction, discover these four reasons why students prefer online learning:

Flexibility.

One of the most appealing aspects of online learning is the flexibility it offers. When does your school day start? Whenever you want! While your teachers will set specific times for live lessons, you decide what you work on each day and for how long. Do you prefer to work in the morning or in the afternoon? Do you like to work on one subject at a time or divide your time among a few subjects? Tailor your school day to fit your needs and match your work style. Not to mention, students prefer online learning because they can work anywhere in the world. That means never having to miss a family vacation!

Move at your own pace.

Similar to the flexibility component, many students prefer online learning to traditional schooling because they are able to work at their own pace. You don’t have to be afraid to work ahead or feel discouraged if you want to take more time on a particular subject or topic. In an online school environment, it’s understood that not all students learn the same way or at the same speed, giving you the freedom to speed up or slow down as needed.

Personalized learning.

In a traditional high school, you are normally in a class of 20-30 students, making personalized learning difficult. Many online high schools, including ASU Prep Digital, leverage technology and individualized teaching models to address specific student needs, strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. At ASU Prep Digital, you are also assigned a Learning Success Coach who will help you achieve success in and out of the classroom by providing you with the tools and support you need.

Pursue passions outside of the classroom.

Your schedule is pretty jam-packed when you attend a traditional high school. You’re in classes from early morning until late afternoon, leaving you with a handful of hours to get homework and studying done—and that’s without factoring in any extracurriculars you want to be part of. Because online learning offers you the flexibility to work whenever and wherever, you have the power to make more time for your passions outside of the classroom. Many online students are taking steps toward enriching their lives and paving their own paths to success by traveling the world, becoming rising sports stars, or working a part-time job in between classes. Find out what your life could look like as an ASU Prep Digital student.
