AHR PLACE aspires to teach the youth of today how to swim in the unpredictable, complicated, overwhelming ocean that is life. What is your emergency plan for too much homework? A failing grade? A rejection letter from a college? A fight with a friend? Nowadays daily life can be just as overwhelming as a catastrophe, so the question to ask is, do you know how to “swim”?
If you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life thinking its stupid.
Here at AHR PLACE, we believe preparing students for everyday challenges is the only way to build confidence and reach goals. Whether you are a straight A student balancing AP courses or a college student failing every class, AHR PLACE can assist you in meeting your goals and growing as a person. Intrinsic growth is mandatory in order to achieve academic and professional success, yet it is often neglected.
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
Expectations are high; fear of failure is mounting. Some students don’t know where to start let alone exactly what help they need. They go in to teachers and say, “I don’t get it”, the last thing a teacher wants to hear. You don’t get what? The problem, the unit, everything taught in the past semester? AHR PLACE encourages students to self advocate, communicate needs, ask questions, and most importantly, problem solve independently. No more saving face, feeling alone, frustrated, scared, embarrassed or stupid. Let’s break the cycle together.
