Spring 2022Who's coming?
6 people are attending Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens – Grades 8 – 12 – Spring 2022 – 10 Weeks
Imagine you had a road map – a step-by-step guide to help you get from where you are now to where you want to be in the future. Your goals, your dreams, your plans…. they are all within reach. You just need the tools to help you get there.
Together, the students will explore the timeless principles of the seven habits to the tough issues and life changing decisions teens face. They will learn how to improve self-image, build friendships, resist peer pressure, achieve their goals, get along with others (including parents!) – as well as tackle the new challenges of our time – like cyberbullying and social media. This class will be indispensable for teens!
This is a high school ½ credit English semester. Students will participate in pre-reading, analyzing and post-reading discussions. Students will write informal short essays, formal essays and some quizzes, along with a midterm and final.
Prerequisite: Students MUST know how to write a 5-paragraph expository essay for their final exam. We will not be going over HOW to write an essay in this class. Previous experience is expected.
NOTE: Registration deadline is March 1, 2022.
There must be a minimum of 5 students to run this class.

Learning to love the past
History. This was definitely not my strongest area as a homeschool mother. I knew to provide my kids with what they needed, I had to look at outside resources. Taking a leap of faith, I registered both my 7th and 8th grader for U.S. History with Jonathan Meola.
Learning history through simple short stories using. “A History of US,” has been fun to read-a-loud. With a subject I once disliked myself, I’ve been able to power through, and engage with my children learning to love the past. Mr. Meola is a phenomenally fair instructor, and has allowed our kids to use their creativity for the semester project. The kids have enjoyed this area most about the class. Seeing their creations from the past come to life is a gift in itself. Thank you, Jonathan! You have lit a fire for history within my children!
Thanks for making homeschooling so much easier for us parents
We have absolutely loved Jonathan’s Ancient Civilizations class this year.
He is so organized, and his classes are expertly taught – my son usually makes me leave the room but I will often go back and listen to the recordings and watch some of the videos because they are so interesting.
We are thrilled that OTA is now a vendor with our charter school, and since Z will be in middle school next year, we plan on signing up for a lot more classes.
Keep up the excellent job and thanks for making homeschooling so much easier for us parents!
Great Class
I really enjoyed Mr. Meola’s Genetics and Biotechnology course. His classes were very in-depth and challenging. I enjoyed the projects, homework, and experiments and he used great PowerPoint presentations. I feel that I’ve learned more genetics through Mr. Meola’s Genetics and Biotechnology course than I have with any other genetics class, and learning biotechnology for the first time with Mr. Meola was amazing. I would really recommend this course to students out there!
She Loved it!
My daughter thoroughly enjoys Mr. Jonathon and was super excited to take another class with him. She learned an immense amount from this class. In fact, she loved it so much that she asked to finish out the class even though she went to a semester boarding school! Me.Jonathon worked with her as she switched school situations and helped her complete the class.
Interesting and fun!
Interesting topics, fun experiments, and Mr. Meola’s knowledge of the content was evident!
