Our Mission
To guide students towards successful futures by offering a holistic and personalized academic support program based on one-to-one mentorship.
What We Do
World Stars Education offers a variety of services, from academic support to educational planning to school tours and college preparations. All of our services are individually tailored through a range of different assessment methods and interviews with students and parents in order to ensure that each student receives exactly the support they need. Beyond this, we also offer courses which teach our students specific skills which will allow them to stand out and succeed as they move forward in their respective journeys.
The reason to choose World Stars Education is simple: because we care. We are invested in the individual success of each of our students, and the individual care and attention that each student receives will reflect our commitment to our students. We have a variety of experts in academic support, college applications, personal branding and public speaking, just to name a few.
​
No two students are identical, so we do not treat our students as if they were. As we progressively assess each students’ individual case, we continuously evaluate what the best path and program for the student will be, in order to guarantee that they receive support tailored to their unique circumstances. We want our students to become the best possible versions of themselves, and we will do whatever we can to ensure that each student reaches his or her full potential.
