Faithful Footsteps Academics’ approach is catered to the learning style of the individual student. Large scale educational institutions look at the average as opposed to looking at the unique gifts God has bestowed upon each child. We aim to meet students where they are, instill in them the ability to see that God has equipped them with unique skills, and assist them in thriving to their fullest potential.
