What is the greatest influence on a student's academic success?

A student’s ability to understand and employ the written word determines to a substantial degree his or her measure of academic achievement. Salisbury Summer School understands this relationship and offers a unique, intensive program focused on reading and writing English on the secondary level. This training is determined by the needs of the individual student.

Our program is designed for students who need to improve or enrich their study skills and command of English.

We believe that the best way to teach our students is to provide them with a supportive but challenging learning environment. We seek to help each individual improve academically and grow personally. Not only for the motivated student who wishes to enrich his or her mastery of reading and written expression, Salisbury Summer School also excels at reaching students who may lack good personal organizational skills, who do not know how to approach their studies properly, and who consequently are not making the most of their academic opportunities.

At Salisbury Summer School, many students learn to appreciate well-written books and refine their own command of written English. With their teachers’ encouragement, and a recognition that they can improve their academic performance, many students develop increased self-confidence.

Salisbury Summer School offers an individualized approach.

Our students achieve an enhanced sense of purpose because we seek to understand how each individual functions academically, intellectually, and personally. Diagnostic tests, psychological consultants and knowledgeable advisors enable us to assess the learning style and the strengths and weaknesses of each student.
