Mill Creek Academy

“At Mill Creek Academy is where I found myself. I was never immensely interested in English, but after taking a few English/Writing courses at MCA, I immediately fell in love. Not only was I propelled to delve into and analyze the ‘deeper truths’ craftily and wittily embedded in English literature, but I was also compelled to be a more insightful writer. After attending MCA, the abilities that I once lack were enhanced thanks to the unparalleled and brilliant instructors who not only sharpen your skills but also enlighten you along the way.”

““The teachers are truthful, and Literary Analysis was the first class in which I enjoyed myself the entire time.””

““This is the most effective class I have ever taken, and the teachers are marvelous.””

““This class isn’t just about learning, but going beyond the paper, book, and pencil.””

““Both of my teachers have many fabulous qualities that I love, but the best thing I loved about them was when they actually cared about my getting an education. Most teachers usually just teach and hope to get paid.””

““The Literary Analysis class expanded my understanding of both short stories and poems. The skills this class taught me help in not only English classes but History as well.””

““I learned a lot from this class, and the teachers were funny and interesting. It has helped me in school, and the homework was really light and manageable. I learned how to go beyond the ‘what’ and more to the ‘how’ and ‘why’. I think this was a beneficial class for me, and it should help others too.””

““I have learned so much! I am able to understand literature much easier. My projects in my English class are getting much easier, and I don’t have to ask people for help all the time. The class is also not just tutoring; it’s learning while having fun!””

““I would recommend this class to a friend because I learned a lot about public speaking and felt more comfortable in front of others. Ms. Feng is a really nice teacher.””

““Ms. Feng’s public speaking classes are very fun. It really teaches you a lot! MCA is a very good place to learn!””

““This class [Public Speaking] taught me to be self-conscious. Before this, I always embarrassed myself. Finally, after this class, I put effort into my speeches, and I came out as a John F. Kennedy, one of the best speech makers!””

““I had a great time last summer at Mill Creek Academy. They made geometry easy to understand and the assignments prepared me for my high school geometry class. I’ve always been good at math and this class really helped build my skills and confidence.””

““I would recommend this class to others who are in need of help with math. This class helped me to challenge myself with hard problems that I now understand how to do.””

““At Mill Creek I was able to get one on one help in geometry that I didn’t get at school. Mrs. Dillemuth was really patient and had a way of explaining things that made perfect sense.””

““The algebra II class I took at Mill Creek Academy was very informative and helpful. Mrs. Dillemuth helped me to raise my math grade a full level in school by applying information from the class.””

““It has ben a very fun and educational class. She explains the concepts clearly, and also gives more information than just the info in the textbook.””

““Mrs. Dillemuth has been really helpful and successful in math. I improved my grade drastically ever since I have been in this class. This has raised my confidence and has made me happy to do and learn Math.””

“MS. DILLEMUTH IS AMAZING! I learned more here than at school. Makes me happy.””

““I think that a good trait that Mr. DiPaola has is he is friendly and approachable. He does not scorn people for making mistakes, as some teachers do. I feel that reviewing probability was helpful since it has always been my weak point.””

““This class definitely helped me get through the test. I think, without this class, I wouldn’t even have gotten through the test. Helped me apply things in the test and we went over ways to succeed with a passing grade.””

““Mr. Richards is so nice and helps me understand concepts clearly… Mr. Richards is great. He knows how to get his point across for the lessons. His students leave the classroom with essentially more knowledge than when they walked in with.””

““Mr. Richards did a great job in correcting my papers.  I was able to learn from my mistakes, I was also able to ask questions and he would answer them.””

““From Mr. Richards’ teaching methods, I learned to write from the heart and to check my writing many times.””

““In Ms. Ponomarenko’s class, we learn about grammar, vocabulary, writing techniques, and many more.  Before I came to this class, I didn’t write interesting essays. After I came to this class, I learned that, for example, I learned what an anecdote is and how it can make your paper more interesting. I will definitely recommend this class to my friends.””

““Mrs. Ponomarenko is a great, cool, fun and enthusiastic teacher.””
