Socratic Honors Academy
Entering Grades 6 – 12
Hybrid: Class online, trips in-person
This course equips students to be lifelong learners and scholars, by integrating English, History and the other Humanities. Students journey thematically through enjoyable literature, write analytical papers, research historical context and learn to present their ideas and argue thoughtfully through dialectic-style discussion groups.
As part of the class, students will go on excursions all around LA exploring art museums, watching Shakespeare in the Park, and gazing at the stars at the Griffith Observatory.
As this program is through our honors academy, to enroll students must be invited to join or pass an intake interview. Upon enrollment, our Honors Director, Kyle Keene, will reach out to schedule an interview with your child.
Foundations of Algebra & Geometry
Entering Grades 7 – 11
Online only
Get ready to level-up in math! These targeted intensives cover the key concepts of algebra and geometry students entering 7th – 11th grade need to succeed. RSG owner and director Karyn Keene, brings a decade of experience as a math teacher and tutor to these classes. This class is an intensive course, students are expected to be focused and ready to learn.
Level A: prepares students to begin middle school by covering fraction/decimal operations, ratios & proportions, negative integers, simple linear equations and volume/surface area of prisms.
Level B: prepares students for advancing math classes in middle and early high school by covering integers & equations, linear equations and systems, functions, sequences, advanced volume/surface area, and geometric proofs.
Level C: prepares students for sophomore and junior level math classes by covering the major function families (linear, exponential, quadratic, and polynomial), mastering geometric proofs, and introducing trigonometry.
Level D: prepares students for pre-calc classes by reviewing advanced topics such as polynomial functions and operations, trigonometry/sinusoidal functions, and an intro to calculus.
Private Tutoring
Online or in-person (Cerritos Library)
Through our private tutoring program, students get the individualized support they need to grow and thrive during the summer months. This year, we are offering private tutoring in two different settings.
Subject Tutoring: In the subject tutoring program, students receive in-depth tutoring in a specific subject. Your child will receive a diagnostic test to determine their unique strengths and needs. Using these results, we identify your child’s academic goals and develop a strategic learning plan to help them develop and grow.
Summer School Support: many students take summer school classes to either bridge to advanced classes or for credit recovery. In this program, students are paired with a tutor who will oversee their summer classes – supporting them to complete assignments, explain challenging topics and help them study for tests to ensure they do their absolute best in their summer studies.
What are Socratic Excursions?
Get Out & learn!
One of the major highlights of our summer programs are our Socratic Honors Excursions where students explore art and cultural locations throughout LA and learn to understand and appreciate great works of art, cinema, and theater.
Last summer, students explored art at The Getty Villa and through The Van Gogh Experience, they explored the history of film at Tarantino’s New Beverly Cinema, and enjoyed a family Shakespeare night watching Romeo and Juliet performed by Shakespeare by the Sea.
This summer we’re planning brand new excursions for our students (and parents who want to join!) to enjoy LA museums, watch great plays and cinema, and to gaze at the stars at the Griffith Observatory.
We hope you’ll join us.
