“I’ve actually done other English classes before Grade 8...and their class was so different and ineffective. Immediately after I started taking class here, I felt the impact right away. My English mark skyrocketed!

When we were figuring out who’s going to be in Grade 10 Honors, I was actually the benchmark. I got the highest mark in my entire class.”

“I improved from around high-80’s to consistently getting mid-90’s (in high school senior English classes). I learned a lot about critical thinking and writing. I’m in STEM fields and you need to write A LOT.

I’ve gotten this far in my career and a lot of that has to do with the writing skills I honed here. Definitely get started honing your writing skill earlier than later.”

“I’ve never had English taught to me the way Top Student Academy did. I never imagined a course like this could exist! It’s the only course that actually TEACHES you HOW to write essays... other courses or tutors just tell you to write essays.
This course will be monumental in changing the way you approach your essay writing process.”

“I didn’t want generic advice...the techniques they teach are very actionable. Every week I’d be learning one dozen, two dozen new techniques. It was all laid out in a way that I could actually internalize it!

Now I can usually finish my essay in 30–20% of the time. That saved me a ton of time....and that has improved my life as a student a lot!”

I probably learned more techniques in one year than I’d learn in the last two years at school.

Not a Tutor. Not an Essay Coach.
A Thinking Revolution.

Why Conventional Approaches Fall Short:
Conventional English Teaching Doesn’t Develop Strategic Thinkers

“Conventional Approach” refers to the traditional standard teaching methods used by schools, in-person and online tutors, mainstream writing programs, online courses, and SAT/ACT prep classes, etc. Most of them focus on basic writing mechanics instead of training the systematic analytical thinking that creates exceptional writers and critical thinkers.

While these methods are often generic and outdated, Top Student Academy is built on a proprietary, high-intensity system designed specifically for top-performing students.
