Our Courses are...
Our
Story
We believe excellence in academics need not be frantic. Instead, our teachers create an atmosphere of joy by modeling peaceful learning, love of the subject, discussion, and creativity.
Our courses facilitate meaningful, deep engagement so that learning becomes memorable, enjoyable, and permanent.
Peaceful
Our
Story
Our classes meet in a live, online format each week or in person. Students see and hear their instructor and their peers, facilitating an engaging class environment. Our teachers lead interactive class sessions in which they encourage and facilitate class discussion as a path to understanding and mastery.
Engaging
Personal
We typically limit our class size to fifteen students to ensure that students receive quality personal attention and individualized feedback. Our instructors work to see each student master the skills at hand. To this end, Alistair Academy teachers provide their students with thoughtful instruction in live sessions.
Why choose us?
Alistair Academy is dedicated to providing students with academic courses while fostering their creativity and imagination.
Art matters.
Art education is mandatory in countries that rank consistently among the highest for math, science test scores, like Japan, Hungary, and the Natherlands. We want to add the USA to this list.
