I suffer from a series of anxiety disorders, so it was really hard for me to be in a huge school. I was incapable of being there. I didn’t know there was an alternate solution. When my parents found Ombudsman, they knew they found something that would fit.
Ombudsman has saved the rest of my life.

First and foremost, Ombudsman has helped me to finish high school. Without this level of privacy I wouldn’t be able to do it, or it would be very difficult. I work better alone, and not having all my friends distracting me. This is a great place to just sit down, get straight to work and do your stuff. Each one of us having our own computer to work on is perfect for that.
The teachers are the nicest people. Whenever I’ve had any problems they’ve been there to talk to me or to my parents. Whatever question I have, they figure it out. They are really there for me. It makes me really happy when I turn my writing assignments in, and they tell me how much they enjoy them. Their comments are very encouraging.
I already have many schools in mind after I graduate. I’m hoping to study either music engineering or computer technology. Either way, I’m going to college immediately. Ombudsman has saved the rest of my life. Education is the key to success and they have done all they can to make sure I get it.
