How it works

SKILLS THEY PRACTICE, NOT JUST STUDY

Level UP should feel very different from sitting through another traditional class. It is active, useful, and relevant.

Hands-On Practice

Whenever possible, teens actually perform the skill

Teens work through situations they are likely to encounter in everyday life

Teens practice thinking, communicating, listening, evaluating choices, and making thoughtful decisions

Teens are encouraged to use what they learned outside the classroom

Each teen has a Skillbook to learn key concepts, reflect, practice, and track the skills they are developing

Key concepts explained in plain language, one skill at a time.

Space to work through the skill, write down what happened, and note what to try next.

A running record of skills a teen has practiced, so progress is visible.

Flexible by design

Level UP works as a full course, a weekly workshop, an elective, a co-op class, or a unit at a time at home.

The same lessons work at the kitchen table or in a room full of teens.

Hands-on units run well as sessions where teens rotate through practicing skills.

Start with the unit that fits your schedule, tools, or the skills your teens need first.

Challenges and missions push the learning past the lesson. Teens take a skill home and use it in real life, which is where it sticks.

Let's help them feel ready.
