THE "QUICK FIX" TO YOUR FUTURE!
If you need your GED quickly, here's the fastest, most accurate, and most cost-effective way to prepare for it!

How does it work?
If you can read, comprehend, and multiply, we can prepare you to successfully pass the GED test in 25 – 30 classroom hours. How? By teaching you the specific skills you need to pass the GED test. As an added bonus, these are the same skills you need for also passing college entrance and career school tests. Students have a choice of attending EVENING classes for SIX weeks two (2) evenings a week from 5:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., MORNING classes for SEVEN weeks two (2) mornings a week from 8:30 a.m. - 10:30 a.m., or AFTERNOON classes for SEVEN weeks for two (2) afternoons a week from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m.  Additional math classes for students are available on Saturdays from 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Why do other courses take so much longer?
We have developed a stream-lined program that gives you exactly what you need to know. This is based on refining the information and understanding what is on the GED test.

Why does it work where other programs fail?
One of the reasons why other programs fail is because they take too long and people become frustrated or bored so they drop out. Another reason is that not all GED teachers are trained to work with adult students who learn differently as adults. Bonnie Kaye, M.Ed., the lead teacher and developer of Accelerated GED, has taught thousands of students for over 21 years for Community College of Philadelphia before starting her own Center in 2006. She has perfected the techniques needed to be successful.   

What do I learn?
You learn the foundation of English grammar, the tricks of writing a winning essay, and general math as it applies to passing the GED. You also review reading for the GED test, and how to read charts and graphs used in the science and social studies section.

How would you describe the learning environment?
At the Northeast GED Center, classes are small and personal. We usually have 18 - 22 people in a class. Students have the opportunity to work together in small groups so that they don't get bored. The environment is fun, uplifting, and nurturing. We never call on a student—we know how scary that is! Instead, we ask for volunteers to answer, and if no one volunteers, the teacher answers. There are no embarrassing moments at our Center. We make learning fun, fast, and enjoyable.

Do you guarantee I'll pass the test?
Absolutely NOT!! We do guarantee that we will teach you the skills you need to pass the test. The rest is up to you. If you study 20 – 30 minutes every day for the six weeks and attend every class, you will assure yourself of having an excellent chance of passing the test the first time.  

Can everyone be successful with your program?
We do our best to assess you prior to joining our program by offering you a free English, language, and math test. We don't stop you from joining our class if your levels aren't up to where they need to be, but we strongly recommend you to find a program that can work with you at a pace that is more comfortable for you. We don't want you to feel frustrated coming back to school. This program moves quickly, and you have to be at the right level to move with it. We will gladly recommend other programs to help you if this is not the right program for you.

What does the program cost?
The cost of the program is $100.00 plus $25.00 for the materials for a total cost of $125.00.  This includes all the learning materials so you don't have to buy a book, a post-test at the end that will indicate how you'll score on the GED, and a beautiful completion certificate suitable for framing for those students who meet the 90% attendance requirement.

Registration and Payment
Registration is based on a first-come, first-serve basis. Registration must be done in person prior to class and takes approximately 10 – 15 minutes for the paperwork.  The program fees are due on the FIRST DAY OF CLASS in either cash or a money order. No checks are accepted, and no payment arrangements are available.

Are private lessons available?
Private lessons are available, but they are more expensive. You can discuss that with the Center principal.
