TESC has people that Have Doctrates and Masters in their field as Mentors, BUT a Professor teaches a class giving lectures etc. a Mentor just corrects written assignments and maybe participates in online discussions if it is an online course. The only TESC course I have taken it was a Guided Study program and I thought the mentor was good, but I only had responses to e-mail questions and comments on my essays to judge that on. All assignments, exams and textbooks are standard for the course, the mentor just gives grades for each assignment, they can not even add points for effort. My mentor thought I did A work with 94 and 96 on mid-term and Final, and 100 on 8 of 10 assignments and 90 on 1 assignment. I just could not get to the last assignment so I got an A-. Not bad I Know, but I only missed an A by .8 If it had been up to the mentor she would have given me the A, but the computer calculates the score and gives the grade.
I agree with Jennifer this may not be the type of school you are looking for.
