Martha Pohl and Dave Taylor are wonderful, patient, fun instructors who can turn your two-left feet into happy feet. I've had the privilege of attending classes and workshops taught by Martha and Dave in fox trot, waltz, tango, rumba, and cha cha, and each session has been fun and invigorating and always leave me wanting to learn more. In addition to the lessons, there's also a social dance after the lesson every Friday night so you get to try out your new moves on the dance floor.

And yet, Martha Pohl and Dave Taylor have been as patient (and encouraging) as can be, breaking everything down so that it's understandable to each of us. They are flexible, positive, and very importantly, excellent communicators. They give their all in each and every lesson -- no matter how slow we are to pick things up, or how quickly we learn. Couldn't recommend them more highly!

Initially, my wife wanted to enroll our three year old son in a Montessori preschool. In some ways,…read moreThe Goddard School is the opposite of Montessori: where Montessori stresses free, unstructured, child-led activities, Goddard stresses organized, structured, teacher-led activities. For our son, who is naturally independent and creative, the structure Goddard provides, rather than stifling his independence and creativity, helps him channel it in new, more social and collaborative ways. Sometimes this is difficult for him. But we think it's challenging him to develop skills that a Montessori-type approach might not provide. Plus, the teachers are incredibly well-qualified, the facility is new, clean, beautiful, and very well-managed, and the security and health precautions are advanced and well-applied. The Goddard School and its proprietary curriculum may not be well-suited to fit every child's needs and all familys' budgets, but we feel it's well-suited to our child's needs and well-worth the added expense over some of its competitors. Also, it's good to know that TGS is a franchise, so each individual facility will only be as good as its owner-operator. And the owner-operator at this facility, himself a father, is kind, respectful, organized, efficient, dedicated, detail-oriented, professional, and an excellent manager of both property and personnel. We highly recommend this school to anyone who feels that their child would benefit from this kind of learning environment.
