EXCITING NEWS FOR FORMER TEST PASSERS!!!

Today was a monumental day for past GED Testers who had taken the previous GED Test as far as what would happen to the tests they passed prior to January 1, 2014. Thanks to a bill that was approved by our PA House of Representatives, those tests results are being taken into consideration. I don't know what the cut-off scores were, but one of our students was informed today that she would only have to take the new Math Test and her other scores would count towards her diploma.

If you are in this situation, you need to register to take the test at www.GED.com. If you took the test previously, you will not be allowed to set up the test until your test results from before are evaluated which takes about a week - ten days.

So I'm excited for many who won't have to take the whole test again--and I'm excited that our new testers are passing the new 2014 GED Test!

We have new morning classes starting on June 12, 2014, and a new weekend class starting on July 12, 2014. If you are interested in becoming part of our "success story," please call me at 215-745-0141 or visit our website at www.GEDPhilly.com.

You can also join our Facebook page at GEDPhilly.com as well.

I'M SO EXCITED--AND I JUST CAN'T HIDE IT!!

Our students are passing the test--and I'm thrilled! I wasn't feeling very optimistic when the test changed on January 1, but now my mood is improving each week as we find the "key" to success. And guess what? We are obviously learning!

Our Center gives students extra time for extra study including additional Saturday mornings for math. Our newly developed materials have made a difference in showing students what to do to pass the test. Today without your GED, life is going NOWHERE. 

If you have tried before but failed, don't let that stop you from trying again. We know that all adults have problems that can become overwhelming, but that will pass and you'll still have nothing without that piece of paper. 

Feel free to join our GEDPhilly.com Facebook page to keep in tune with our success. Even if you aren't one of our students, you can join and be part of our family.

We have new evening, morning, and weekend classes coming up in the next few weeks, so you have time left to start college or career school in September. You can join our team of GED coaches and earn yours in just a few short weeks.

HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT IT???

Everyone who comes to our GED Program comes because without a diploma, LIFE IS GOING NOWHERE!!!

Today getting a diploma--which is also called a GED--is more challenging than ever. Yes, the test changed--but guess what? Our students are learning to pass the test. That is our only goal here at the Northeast GED Center. When you walk into our classroom, you will see a poster saying that because that is our only concern--our students becoming graduates.

Our program works for students who are motivated and want to do this quickly with a minimum amount of stress. We know what we're doing--and we do it quickly and successfully. 

We have new classes starting for the morning on May 1. That means that you can be a high school grad by the beginning of July. That will allow you to enroll for college, career school, or get a better job.  Yes, you are weeks away from moving to your next step in life.
Call me at 215-745-0141 to get your key to your next step. Make your life go SOMEWHERE!!!

It's DO-ABLE!!!

It's been a while since I've written. I didn't want to give you incorrect information--so I have waited. I was really pessimistic about the new test--and I still am--but NOT FOR OUR STUDENTS. Our students are PASSING!!

We have spent every day studying this new test. We know what is on it--and we know how to teach you to PASS it! Is it easy? Absolutely NOT--but it is "do-able"! If you do what we tell you to do, you can in many cases be a graduate in just a few short weeks. It takes dedication, maturity, and studying every single day. But big deal. Most of you think you are going to college or trade school--and then you'll have to study hours every day--not just for an hour.

We have learned some subject matter on the test from our students who are willing to share. We have a Facebook page to give support and information to our students. Some of our students didn't pass a test the first time, but guess what? They passed it the second time. 

Thanks to the Northeast Regional Library, we were able to set up weekly computer classes to help our students get familiar with the computer skills needed for the test. We have been blessed by wonderful tutors and teachers who give extra time to our students.

So yes--we can help you get that "gold key" that will unlock the door to your future. You just have to really, really want it. If you do, call us. We'll be waiting for you!

ONE CHANCE LEFT TO PASS THE GED TEST!!

We are starting emergency classes in December that will still give you enough time to pass the GED Test before it changes. We are running our "boot camp" model for two weeks during the morning and evening to make sure people have enough time to test and even re-test if necessary.

Classes start on December 9, 2013. Morning classes are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. - noon. Evening classes are Monday through Thursday from
5:30 p.m. - 8 p.m., and Saturday afternoons from 12 - 3 p.m. The classes last for two weeks. Our Center is working with Harambee Charter School to make sure that testing is available when the class is completed.

Class size is limited, so please call as soon as possible for more information. After January, the test changes. It becomes computer only, the content is college level which requires far more studying than now, and the cost of the GED Test will nearly double. You still have a chance to be a high school graduate by December 31, 2013. Call us today at 215-745-0141. It's now or maybe never!!!

LAST CHANCE TO PREPARE FOR THIS GED TEST!!

November will be the last chance to prepare for the current GED Test. The doors are closing in on test takers, so now we have to get you ready to register as soon as you start the November program rather than wait until the end of it.
We are happy to do your pre-registration that is required in order to go to the testing centers as soon as you start class. There is not time to waste.

To accomodate everyone possible, we are offering morning, afternoon, evening and weekend classes in November. There is no time to delay. Call us at 215-745-0141 to see how you can enroll before the new much harder, more expensive, and computerized version of the test starts in January.

HURRY, HURRY, HURRY!!!

There is still time to take classes and pass the GED Test before the end of the year. To help people, we are starting additional classes throughout October, November, and even the beginning of December to help as many people as possible. Special classes to help people who have failed certain sections of the GED Test will also be available.
Remember--after January 1, 2014, it's a new GED Test. It's a test that no one can figure out how to pass yet, but we will keep trying. Just know it will be much, much more difficult, on the computer only, and more money.
It's not too late. Call me at 215-745-0141to find a spot now in an upcoming class.
