HS2 Academy

Teachers and students are not professional and concentrated. The material, written by HS2, is definitely not comparable to those presented by other institutions around the area.

HS2 is the place to be for college counseling and tutoring. Their counselors are well educated on the college system and know how to shape a student’s college application so that it brings out the best qualities of that student. (HS2 counseling is a section all on their own). Their teachers are amazing [Adam, Kevin, Michael, Gina, Aris, and Patrick (when he teaches, you’ll be entranced ngi) especially] albeit I know a lot of students have problems with some of the teachers there (Evangelia…Fatema…). However, that can be easily overlooked.
HS2 has limitless resources for their students to use, whether it be practice SAT and ACT tests for the students to take in preparation for their upcoming tests or consulting with a teacher one-​on-​one in order to better understand a subject. And what’s even better about this is that they’re happy to give it to you. Peter, the branch manager, is freaking hilarious and chill, but also will always make sure that you are on task and also constantly keeps the parents updated on how a student is doing (a great bonus for parents).
HS2 will not butter up the college application process for you. They won’t sugarcoat it and tell you and your parents that with your grades, you are guaranteed into any school just as long as you use their program. This is quite unlike other places that I’ve visited and heard about. HS2 keeps it real. They know that no college admission is guaranteed and that anything can happen. Instead, HS2 does all they can to maximize your chances of getting into a school. They will also help you choose which colleges you should apply to according to what you want to do, your grades, test scores, etc. To HS2, there really is no «bad» university, because that’s the truth! There is no bad university. They don’t focus on the brand-​name colleges in order to appease parents; they know that there are a lot of good schools out their with fantastic programs that may not be a brand-​name university. They focus on the student and what he/​she needs and wants. They also keep the students updated with what colleges are doing recently, not only in terms of application processes, but also their academic programs, clubs, activities, etc. HS2 counseling truly is number 1 and have helped students stay on track and stay focused during college application season (I finished my apps a month before everyone else did).
Finally, I must mention the HS2 atmosphere. Pretty much everyone there (save like two teachers l o l) is the friendliest and funniest person I’ve ever met. I especially love Adam, Abdul, Patrick, Michael, Kevin, Gina, and Peter. Everyone at HS2 interacts with one another and get to know each other really well, even with the front desk ladies! My two years at HS2 have definitely been an experience that I’m glad I went through.
