ACVA Tutor List
Certificate seeking students can obtain all the knowledge they need to pass Level I and Level II within the structure of the online courses themselves. However, tutoring can help speed up comprehension and progress.
In order to open up tutoring opportunities for Vedic astrologers, ACVA has created a Flex Program. This allows learners to study on their own or with a tutor if they choose. When the learner feels they are ready, they can forego attending classes for modules 1-4 and sit to take a special test out exam for ACVA Level I. Upon successfully testing out on the exam, the learner is awarded an “Introduction to Vedic Astrology” Certificate (for modules 1-4). This approach serves learners who want a designation and a credential for beginning studies but who do not want to spend the time and money to take advanced classes aimed towards the full ACVA Online Level I Modules 1-10 Certification.
ACVA is also planning on extending the Flex Program beyond Modules 1-4. ACVA intends to offer a motivated and prepared learner the option to test out for the entire ACVA Level I certification (Modules 1-10). We have a working title for this offering called the ACVA “SuperFlex” Program.
A special ACVA designation is given to those tutors currently participating in the Flex Program. You can recognize these tutors below with the red (*) asterix beside their names.
Tutoring can be helpful in this situation as well. However tutors will still not be providing credit hours towards ACVA Level I certification — just a knowledge resource (and income potential) to help learners advance their studies within the province of ACVA. Payment and study plans are made privately between the tutor and learner, outside the domain and management of ACVA itself. Download the ACVA Tutor Evaluation Form
Tutor Resources:
Experienced Vedic astrology tutors can be beneficial as knowledge resources. They can help to speed-up and advance your Vedic studies. Whether you are working to gain certification at ACVA, preparing for the ACVA Flex Exam or just want to expand your knowledge, a tutor can be an important part of your study strategy.
