Acellus Academy On Steroids: Gold Edition Review

Let's talk about the online private home school Acellus Academy. There is a new version with many changes called Gold Edition. Acellus is an accredited program that let's you home school your kids without you doing the teaching your self. I'll do a small review of the new changes on the new gold edition.

Hi UltraTec, have you touched on making a High School Education Plan in a video? If not, would you consider making a video about it? It would be greatly appreciated.

[@UltratecJS]

I was just thinking about doing one for this exact topic lol. How'd you read my mind? We recently had to go over the plans for our kids and I was thinking others could benefit from a guide.

[@umbraphoenix08]

@UltratecJS That would be wonderful. Sadly, there's not a guide anywhere I can find, and for some, it can be very confusing.

[@UltratecJS]

@@umbraphoenix08 I'll try to take care of it this weekend. Is there something specific you want to see? Or just a generic guide on how to choose classes that will get you to graduate.

[@umbraphoenix08]

@UltratecJS I think a general guide would help a lot. Maybe how to set it up, and I am not sure if you can touch on it, but for some, it might be helpful if you could cover both graduation paths.

[@UltratecJS]

@@umbraphoenix08 I just uploaded the educational plan video, I hope it's useful 🫡.

Great videos! We are considering moving internationally and we are looking for an online school for our 6th and 10th grade kids. We are very nervous to say the least about the education they will receive. With the new update to gold would you say the teacher response is better or the same taking a few days to respond? It is so important to us that they receive a diploma from the USA. Being accredited is a huge plus for us.

Hi! Thank you so much for all of your AA videos! They have helped me so much. Question: Do you feel the Writing Tutor is good? I’m wondering if it’s the same as the one Acellus uses in Power Homeschool. The parents have said it’s pretty much a joke. TIA!

[@UltratecJS]

I'm glad you like the videos! I think the writing tutor could be better but I do see them constantly trying and improving it.

How do you get acellus gold edition I use it but I’m on the old one?

[@UltratecJS]

For us, it was automatically applied without having to do anything. If you use the app, I would update to the latest version. If that fails, I would reach out to Acellus so they can enable it from their end.

I have been watching your videos so much lately, I appreciate all of the info you give. I plan to do the Roger Billings scholarship. However, I cannot attend it live, also I will have 2 students. Can they watch it on a separate day? Also, how would they both watch it at the same time but it read that they both watched it? I have not paid yet and sadly; they do not have a free trial to look into all of that.

[@UltratecJS]

It's my pleasure, I'm glad you like the videos. You do not have to watch the feed live, you will have time until the day before the next Wednesday passes. The students get credit by typing in their comment along with their student ID. The way I did a trial was by paying one month with a burner email address so the students could try it out for a month. After they tested it out and liked it, we emailed Acellus to give us a refund and they did without questioning us. Once we were ready, we signed up again with our real email address.

@@UltratecJS Thank you, that is a great idea! Thank you for further explaining. Also, do the activities/additional things like gold, are those offered to those who pay for the Basic Plan? Or is that for the enhanced plan with the social part of it? I see some features that I love but I am not sure what all I get as far as gold, activities, library, etc with the basic plan.

[@soundofthegardenwatc]

power home school has any updates?

[@UltratecJS]

I'm not too sure on power since we are only subscribed to Acellus.

[@soundofthegardenwatc]

can i switch anytime from Power to Acellus@@UltratecJS

[@Mia-uv8oc]

What do you think of their new rules limiting weekly steps? This makes Acellus no longer self-paced.

[@UltratecJS]

I did notice half the classes say 20 steps limit per week due to NCAA regulations. We haven't run into the issue yet so I'm not sure yet.

[@madisonbailey9845]

If you understand the concept well in a subject will it skip you a couple of steps ahead or will you have to continue doing the steps even though you already know the concept.

[@UltratecJS]

I don't think there's a way to skip ahead based on a pre-test but if you already know it, you should be able to breeze through the material. You should also reach out to Acellus directly so they can confirm this.

[@madisonbailey9845]

Thank you

[@lettyg964]

I appreciate your video. Q: can this program be done on an IPAD or does it require a labtop?

[@UltratecJS]

We use laptops, but you should be able to do it from the iPad with no problem! I've heard of other parents using tablets exclusively.

[@lettyg964]

Thank You So Much.

[@kevinng2180]

Is there any trouble getting into college? Do colleges look at applicants that are home schooled differently?

[@UltratecJS]

From what I am reading from other parents, there is not one complaint from kids not being accepted into colleges. If you join the Acellus parents group in Facebook you can read all the success stories. That's why I chose Acellus over Power since Acellus gives accredited degrees.

[@kevinng2180]

@@UltratecJS thanks for the reply

[@biggtoria5031]

How would you say the testing is pertaining to the lessons learned?

[@UltratecJS]

My kids take notes from the lessons and are able to get A's on their exams and finals.

[@sellarstyle51]

Are these updates only with gold program?

[@UltratecJS]

Every member with Acellus gets these updates/Gold Edition.

[@user-bs9wp2ct5j]

Excellent information

[@UltratecJS]

Hey Nancy, I'm glad you liked the video :)

[@user-bs9wp2ct5j]

I live in the state of New York , my son doesn’t want to go to the high school , he gets overwhelmed amd anxious and he just don’t want to go to school today environment anymore . So I’m thinking to pull him out of public school for homeschool. Your videos are so helpful

[@UltratecJS]

@@user-bs9wp2ct5j This sounds like a perfect for scenario for Acellus. Doing the best for our kids is essential in today's crazy world, we have to listen to their concerns. I wish you and your family the best of luck. If you guys ever need someone to talk to I'm here.

[@user-bs9wp2ct5j]

@@UltratecJS Thank you ! I definitely will have questions .
