What Our Students Say

Brilliant Teachers
My time at GED Institute was well spent. The teachers were brilliant and helpful. GED Institute offers one-on-one tutoring, which has worked in my favour. The school provides a very homely environment, making it comfortable to study. I've also made some amazing friends. Thank you to Blanche, who was always helpful with information that I needed. I highly recommend GED Institute to learners who need support with their various learning strategies.

My daughter's drive & confidence was restored
The GED program at GED Institute really helped my daughter rediscover her drive and confidence. She could focus on her areas of weakness and study at her own pace, and with the help of the teachers and useful tools, she was able to conquer every subject. Having passed her GED, my daughter is now currently studying towards a degree that corresponds with her skills and aspirations. I have so much gratitude to the teachers for being so approachable, patient and for the individualized attention and feedback that was given to my daughter.

Just the Support I Needed
Having been to a mainstream high school, GED Institute was a welcoming change. Teachers were focused on the task at hand. In saying that, you would still need to apply yourself, but in this environment, it was easier. Also, being dyslexic I received the support needed. This resulted in me being able to complete my GED course in a couple of months. Everyone is not suited to mainstream schooling, and we need to embrace the alternatives GED Institute was the best option for me. Thank You GED Institute!
