Who We Are
We’re an innovative and game-changing real estate school in Northern Virginia. Our mission is to provide top-notch, quality education to help you move into a new and exciting journey in real estate. Queen Academy is here to take away the confusion and intimidation of starting an exciting career. We offer you all of the education that you need to get your license and progress into your first year in the business.
Our Vision
At the Queen Academy of Real Estate, we believe in providing an engaging learning environment by using our network and resources.
After teaching many REBAC Courses, Continuing Education classes, and Pre-licensing courses, Jonathan and Peter found that there was a disconnect between what the real estate education providers were offering and what the students of the REBAC and CE courses expected and needed. The opportunity to deliver a high-quality educational experience is one of the driving reasons behind our founding principles of the Queen Academy of Real Estate.
Founded during the 2020 pandemic where a lot of courses were being taught in a virtual environment, we found that we could easily use our existing resources and national network to deliver an experience that uses technology as well as participates in real estate related advocacy campaigns to build upon the education opportunities and increase the level of professionalism in the real estate industry

Past StudentI was very scared to start this career path in Real Estate. I enjoyed live and virtual lessons from Queen Academy. I felt the professor was great, he kept the class interesting while still giving us the information we needed to learn. I am glad I decided to take this course here in Queen academy and I would gladly take it again for when and if I decide to be a broker.

Past StudentI highly recommend Queen Academy. I was very intimidated by the course and topics and Jon made it all make sense. He has a fun, easy to understand the way of teaching and is very accepting of as many questions as the class had. He never made anyone feel stupid about a question or answering something wrong. He also made four classes go by quickly by allowing the environment laid-back. I am so happy I took this class!

Past StudentThe flexibility of a hybrid course was a great benefit for me. All course content was clearly explained, and Jonathan was always ready to answer or clarify any questions that I had. I felt confident by the end of class sessions that I was fully prepared for the class exam. I highly recommend this course through Queen Academy with Jonathan.

Past StudentJonathan is the master of equipping his students with textbooks and real-world real estate knowledge! He was always willing to answer our questions, suggested additional studying materials, always went above and beyond to ensure that we're comprehending the materials. I also love that he has invited us to a study group to continue supporting us up until we take our state and national exam. Thanks for everything, Jonathan! It's been a pleasure being your student. 🙂
