Create a solid foundation for higher education
Characteristics
Quality teachers with extensive knowledge about students psychology
Teaching programs are based on international standards
Exclusive materials that closely follow the AP formats
Personalized teaching method according to student progress
Commitment on AP pass grade
AP exam registration support
