The Telegraph Method
Telegraph classes follow a specific formula generated to enrich the learning experience with principles of education that exceed what is taught in typical K-12 classes. We ensure that we instill these values in students in order to make sure that what we teach can be carried outside of the context of the classes and applied to general obstacles and challenges that students experience in life.
