    There is no “one size fits all” answer for this. At the start of the year focus on routine and finding a “system” that works for you. Be sure to make a daily to-do list, set up a weekly schedule, be sure to label assignment documents, and read the weekly…

  • What are a couple of easy things I can do to improve my student’s online learning experience?

    • mtm-admin

    Get a second monitor. Extending your desk screen makes everything easier, and it is relatively inexpensive. Be sure to have the student set up in an area that is free from distraction or others doing tasks. Distractions and noise can interrupt meetings and students’ concentration.

  • Should I correct my student’s work before they submit it?

    • mtm-admin

    No. Although helping your student understand concepts is beneficial, giving them the answer is not. Allow their teacher to correct it, so they can better understand where your student needs help.

  • How do I motivate my students to complete their work?

    • mtm-admin

    You know the student best. What motivates them? Try not to use bribes to motivate them; use intrinsic motivation instead of extrinsic. We have a school counselor that can help with strategies to motivate your student. [email protected]

  • How do I know if my student is handing in their work and if it is complete or not?

    • mtm-admin

    You will have to login into their classroom to check this. Once in their classroom you can view the student’s assignments, as well as look over the corrected version of it. Here are some videos to help you with this: How to view a corrected assignment. How to access assignments,…

  • Why does my student need to keep a reading log?

    • mtm-admin

    It is VERY important in the development of your student’s ELA skills to read every single day! The reading log is a way to keep the student and the mentor accountable for this. This also shows your teacher what you are reading. They make suggestions on reading difficulty or recommend…

  • Does Flex Ed offer special credit courses? Who do I contact about those?

    • mtm-admin

    Yes. Contact Highschool VP, Angela Packet at [email protected]

  • How many hours per day should I expect my student to spend on school work?

    • mtm-admin

    This will vary from student to student, but on average, each course takes about 5 hours of committed work a week.

  • Why aren’t some of my courses in my classroom yet?

    • mtm-admin

    The main reason is that most newly written courses have not been added to the classroom yet, so the lessons/quizzes/assignments are available in Teams. The course teacher will email students on the first day of the term with instructions on how to access the course materials.

  • How can I upload and/or download an assignment for my student?
