Distance learning, also known as correspondence study, home or independent study is a non-traditional educational process which exists outside the classroom setting. But we are not like most distance and online schools as our teaching method is unique. Rather than being forced to memorize facts and take tests, the homework assignments are created by the student. This enables him/her to put on paper what he/she has learned, allowing for the creativity and understanding of the student to shine through. it also allows the student to truly understand and and remember the coursework. Everyone's interests and learning style is different, This makes the ACHM method of teaching individualized and truly innovative.
