"Thanks again for all you are doing for these children. We are absolutely thrilled with the RCA programme. I think I have told pretty much anyone who will listen about it!"
"By the way, she is having such a great year! She is learning so much in her courses and really enjoying them."
"Regina Coeli has been so good for Sarah! She just got her SAT scores from the October test and was in the 96th percentile for critical reading (720) and 93rd percentile for writing (670)."
In reference to garnering 3 - 6 college credits from the Interpreting Literature CLEP exam:
"I ppaaaaaaassed! Hooray! It was a pretty hard test, but some parts of it were easy, and I had fun reading all of the different types of literature. Ohmigosh, Humanities helped sooooo much with the test. I doubt I would have done half as well if I hadn't taken Humanities."
"The geometry course was challenging. It taught me to think! "
"The teacher feedback is one more thing that makes RCA the most effective online teaching institution. I am astounded at the dedication of teachers who I know have many more children to think about than my own."
"As a homeschooler who's been taking classes with Regina Coeli for three years now, I can't imagine how I ever got along before I started. I have teachers, deadlines, classmates, friends, and I've learned how to thrive in a competitive school environment and have fun doing it. When you're up against students who are just as motivated and intelligent as you are, you with work harder and reach a whole new level of academic excellence or watch everyone else wave as they pass you by... and I've never been one to take a challenge sitting down."
"I just want to say that Fr. Torraco explained about Confirmation in a way I had never heard it explained before. It was so meaningful. I've asked a lot of people what they thought the purpose of Confirmation was and have never really heard a satisfactory explanation until yesterday in Father's class."
"John (name changed) enjoyed your Latin II class so much this year. He learned a lot and made friends with other students in his class. He looked forward to each class and to your teaching and humor. Although he hit a rough patch a couple times, after consulting with you, he was able to turn it around. He was proud of himself, too, for taking the NLE and earning a Silver medal. We were pleased with his work this year. Thank you so much for your help, encouragement, and for sharing your time and talent."
"I can't thank you enough for the difference enrollment in your humanities program has done for our homeschool. Ted (name changed) has thoroughly enjoyed the humanities class discussions, but more importantly, he has come to better understand the role of the Catholic church in the development of western civilization. History is making sense for him. He has especially enjoyed reading the Great Books of the period that he is studying and the monthly composition is much easier for him to write compared to other compositions he has written in the past because he has memorized the historical facts of the period and better understands the intent of the author. As a parent, I see my son enjoying and understanding Catholic history, which is most important, but more than that it has simplified our homeschooling. I didn't think it possible and especially not during the high school years! In this one course, he has studied history, literature and English composition and saved hours of study time compared to doing these courses separately. I'm looking forward to next year."
"I've told lots of folks about Regina Coeli this year--we're so impressed. I wanted him to continue taking the Humanities, Latin and Theology with RCA."
"By the way, Mary is having such a great year! She is learning so much in
her courses and really enjoying them."
"Thank you very much for teaching the progymnasmata. I have learned
many things about writing from you, such as how to write persuasively with an anecdote and writing a narrative expressively! I appreciate
all of the time and energy you put into teaching this class, and I am grateful to have you as a teacher. I have become a much better writer
than I was at the beginning of the year because of the excellent instruction you have given me. Thank you again and have a great summer!
"
"Jane is looking forward to your Latin class next year.
She'll be taking a pretty full load as an 8th grader: Intermediate Latin, Humanities 1, Algebra 1, and Physical Science.
We have definitely found a gem in Regina Coeli. I feel so confident now about her High School homeschool education!"
"I love, love , love all the couses, teachers and materials. Both Boy's
did not spend inordinate amounts of time for their homework or tests. All of their teachers have replyed to emails and posted
grades very quickly which helped me to know if they were on task or not."
"One of the coolest parts about RCA is how well you get to know people... For me at least, it's never awkward meeting new people
from far away states that I hardly know online. There is some amazing connection among us, that we go to an amazing catholic school,
that makes an amazing friendship. We can just start talking about classes, and teachers, and states...
as if we've been friends forever."
"Thank you for all you do. I appreciate the high standards of RCA and most of all,
I value your sharing your Catholic faith with
my daughter. She is fortunate to be a part of an organization, outside of her family, that seeks to strengthen not only her mind
but her soul."
"I'm so happy to hear that you enjoy having Mary in class. It's been such a blessing
having this course online for her.
She is learning so much."
"I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the beautiful
coaching you are providing my daughter. So far, it seems, RCA has been just what the 'doctor ordered!'"
"She "Blew it out of the water again!" to quote the college's test administrator.
He remembered us from last year. She said she purposely didn't answer two of the questions as to answer them would have put the Church
in a poor and false light."
