At iSaahasi Academy, we are eager to move away from the robotic monotony of memorisation and standardized testing. We have created a holistic approach to education for adult returning learners instead. More than absorbing facts, we want to equip our students with the ability to interrogate a fact, to consider it critically, to imagine the context, to debate the utility, to scrounge for their own facts, and to learn to defend and complicate their knowledge. These are life long skills that teach resilience and nuance, prepare our students for versatile professional, social, and real-world challenges, and surpass the momentary purpose of cramming for a test. We respect our students’ time; we want their efforts to beget true competence, confidence, critical thinking, and long-lasting tools.
We’re guided by the tightness and intimacy of our community, inspired by their motivation to give our learning program another chance, and determined to deliver the most effective, in-depth, sensitive, impact-ful, and heartfelt education to help our students succeed. We are striving to create a community of informed citizens–armed with knowledge, curiosity, critical thinking skills, and empowering friendships–who can navigate financial, healthcare, and professional systems competently, advance through career ladders and pursue professional passions, fortify financial security, and explore their curiosities, wherever they may lead.
