Discounting holidays, Junior College is effectively only one and a half years. We make the best of the available time by helping our students specialize in 2-3 topics (that are surely tested every year). Students are advised to bring laptops or tablets to class. Comprehension practices are accessed online with personal annotations on why their answer is correct or wrong.
