Welcome To My Page!
Hi hi! My name is SJ, I’m 17, and I’m absolutely proud to be enrolled in Apollo during my junior year of high school. I really wanted to take Apollo when I first heard about it because I wanted take control of my academics. If you’re anything like me, you can understand feeling burdened by traditional education: the same boring assignments, the same boring curriculum, and having to spend four-and-a-half to nine whole months learning about things you’re not even passionate about!
Learning has always been a challenge for me growing up with ADHD, also known as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and it is is notorious for causing learners to only be engaged if they are interested. That’s the biggest reason I chose to be involved with Apollo: I wanted to learn as much as I possibly could WHILE being able to focus on the projects, since I am able to customize them to my interests! Because of this self-directed course, I enjoy learning to a higher level when I do my projects, and I’ve learned more about the things I want to do in my future career than I ever have been able to! I look forward to taking Apollo in my senior year!
