Fusion is a revolutionary place that changes the world for students and their families. Were an accredited private school providing one-to-one education for kids from grades 6-12. But were so much more than that. Were a community of learning dedicated to creating a supportive environment where every kid can flourish emotionally, socially, and intellectual...ly. Our teaching approach is unique and effective: one student and one teacher for the whole class period. This lets us present course material in a focused environment, at a pace and in a style that suits each students individual interests, strengths, and challenges. Our Teaching Philosophy We believe that in order for students to learn they must first feel trust with their teacher. We meet each student where they are and first make sure they are seen, heard, and feel safe. From there we are able to personalize our teaching style for their strengths, passions, and learning style. This one-on-one approach has life-changing results not only for our students but provides a completely unique experience for our teachers. When you step on one of our campuses, youll immediately feel the Fusion difference. We intentionally hire people who are passionate about education, have fun, enjoy collaborating with their teammates, and want to change the world through education.
