Just heard of this enrichment program. Can anyone share their experiences? We have done Kumon but did not like it. Looking for other options. Thanks.

We tried for few months when my kid was in 1st grade, nothing special. They do 2 hour class which includes an hour of math and hour of English. English teacher was good but I heard she left and the math teacher was ok. Nothing innovative and not worth it in my opinion

Just what a 1st grader needs...more class time. You'd be better off taking kid to the park or library.

Couldn't agree more.

If you have time to spend 1-2 hours at home weekly, then, no enrichment program is needed for upto 8th . All enrichment programs are of of no use, if the parent doesn't get involved in what is happening at these classes, and if the student is not involved. In either case, your involvement is required. So, why make this coaching center rich ?

Coming up with your own curriculum is tough and there are benefits to having a 3rd party keep you accountable.

I agree that most of this is useless without parental involvement. But some parents want to be involved who just need some help.

Your family might not need it, but other families do. Let them do them, and let you do you.
