Won's Academy

Wow, one of my students, a junior in high school, built this terrarium set up for the lizards he's purchased. Very proud of him!

Don't let Covid-19 hold you back! Won's Academy is now offering its courses online!

Congrats! All my Korean 8th graders (that applied) made TJ this year!!! Whoo Hoo!!!

If you are in need of distance learning or tutoring, we are implementing a combination of Skype and OneNote for interested students.

The added benefit of this approach (in addition to keeping more people healthy, that is) is that all the work gets conveniently saved automatically for you to review as much as you want later.

Congratulations to both my students that were accepted by Phillips Exeter Academy!!!

I want to congratulate one of my students on making Northwestern University in the early application round!!!

We spent a good amount of time making sure her personal statements turned out perfectly. Extremely proud of you!!

As an educator, I am constantly looking for solutions that will improve my ability to help students.

My latest find is the Surface Slim Pen (which, by the way, does not require a Surface device). If you're in the Microsoft/Windows ecosystem and looking for a topnotch bluetooth active stylus, I highly recommend the Surface Slim Pen.

The sensitivity, ergonomics, and write quality are topnotch. Plus, it's pretty quiet. (You'd be surprised how loud styluses can get!) Just make sure it's compatible with your device. I'm using a HP Spectre x360, and it works fabulously. Much better than the HP Active Pen that comes with it by default.

If I'd known I could solve the issue with my website being hacked so easily, I would have done so long ago!!

I've been asked a lot about laptops lately for students looking to get into coding.

If you're in the market for a laptop, this is an insane deal. (And, no, I swear I am not paid by HP or any other company to post this. This is genuinely just an insane deal.)

Good luck to all my students taking the AP Calculus BC exam tomorrow!!

If you want to stay productive this summer, give us a shout!
