非常差的课后补习班.....那些所谓的老师都是些高中生.老师的态度非常差.

暑期班太糟糕了，小孩在里面什么都学不到...

I am a former educator and parent. I put my son in this program for the summer in hopes that it would benefit him in reading and math. Unfortunately he did not receive the educational tools he needed for the upcoming year. The staff is composed of many volunteers and students who are not even teachers yet. They are not equipped to teach a third grade class going into fourth. What I witnessed was unacceptable. I reviewed my sons classwork to see some misspelled words and improper sentence structure which tells me these "counselors" were not checking the work. I will say that the head teacher and assistant in my sons class were good. Ms. Chirbo and Ms. Sarah were committed. But a few who were rude, unprofessional and disrespectful. They need to go back to classroom management 101. I witnessed my son feel excluded at times and he conveyed to me he was excluded from activities and food. Now there excuse was that he has allergies to peanuts and thats why he could not have chicken fried trice and that the restaurant used peanut oil. I called the restaurant and they told me they used vegetable oil. in addition the first day of his trip he was passed over and not given a juice box, when I asked where is my sons juice box they had told me they ran out. This all transpired because my son was in the program for half of the day, but when I conveyed to them he still should be part of everything that goes on in the camp until I pick him up. I was given excuses. It was clear to me they did not want to take responsibility for there lack of humility towards my son. I would absolutely not recommend this program if you are looking for academic support. It is composed of 90% of the Asian community and I felt that my son did not receive the support he needed. In conclusion there are many other wonderful programs in the area that unfortunately for me were full. Lesson learned.
