Virtual Reality Homework/Study Skills

Virtual Reality Homework/Study Skills Groups are designed to motivate students to independently complete homework /study skills, along with the strategies that are necessary to achieve this goal. Resulting in better grades, and less stress for parents who are exhausted from the daily grind of “getting their kids to do their work!” This group is an online avatar-based virtual reality platform conducted in a safe controlled environment to learn these skills.
