Montessori School of East Orlando is a true diamond in the rough in our local educational…read morecommunity. You won't just find a school here - you'll find a cohesive community of teachers, students, and parents that truly partner together to provide a nurturing yet rigorous educational experience. The low student to teacher ratio allows teachers to truly get to know each student and their individual strengths and needs so they can best support them where they're at. They don't only focus on teaching students academics but also support growth in necessary life skills such as time management, prioritization, social emotional skills, responsibility, and flexibility. They also have a wide array of classes outside of standard academics such as ballroom dancing, drama, Spanish, PE, and art so students have a well rounded experience. I couldn't be happier to have my daughter at MSEO and can't recommend this school enough!

We enrolled our daughter for her first year of preschool at Montessori School of East Orlando and…read morewe saw an immediate change in her ability to write her name and her interest in wanting to write more within the first month. The school brought a love and desire for learning to our child. Our daughter was very shy and struggled to communicate with anyone she didn't associate with on a constant basis and she would cry and hide if she was made the center of attention. The school's natural environment is encouraging children to come out of their shells. It's been an amazing transformation to watch her grow in confidence and learn to love doing something even if people are watching. At our daughter's first parent/teacher meeting the director/primary teacher said "She may never want to get up in front of a group and talk or perform but we will give her tools to use to be able to do it." We watched our daughter dread getting up in front of other to now excited to show off what she enjoys. It's been a beautiful transformation. I've never seen an environment where so many children of all ages love one another so much. The older kids look out for the younger ones and set an example that is exemplary. I feel so at ease that my child is getting good influences from her peers. Her classmates are encouraging to one another and rally to help a classmate in need and cheer them on The teachers and staff truly care about what's best for your child to make sure they are getting what they need and are progressing in their curriculum. They put emphasis on the process of a task over just completing it, so our daughter feels pride doing the steps that lead to the completion of the task just as much as feeling the joy of finishing something. I love that our daughter will have the same teachers for multiple years, I feel this will be invaluable to her growth because they know her and know what her capabilities are. I also love that she gets plenty of one on one time with the teachers as well. Everyone is great at communication if you reach out to them or need something, which is amazing because there is a clear and open dialog for whatever your questions or needs may be. Overall we think its a wonderful school and as a parent you can be as involved as you want to be with the many special events the parent's put on for the children. The existing parents are very welcoming to the new parents.

Sensei's Dan and Susan work with groups and individuals during sessions and make it fun for the junior classes.

The classes focus on a lot of stuff and rotate back to self-defense which everyone could use!

I returned to this business today because I had credit from a certificate to use. Other than that I…read morereally had no intentions to return but didn't want to loose out on the gift certificate but I am glad I did return. It's a holiday and I thought it would be busy but I arrived early and they worked me in for eye brow waxing and 15 foil high light. The eye brows were done be ammora (spelled wrong I am sure) she was great and is going to be local in the area. Great personality and great job on my eye brows. I then waited a bit for the highlights but not too long. I was greeted by Mindy and she was great from beginning to end. When I sat down I was approached by the manager who immediately said she knew who I was and that she saw my review and questioned why I was there. She was upset that I had left my review and not given her a chance to do something about it. I explained that I had spoken to the supervisor that day and what they said so I didn't think to contact anyone else because I was not happy with that supervisor. She explained that she would have done something about it but that just posting about it did not help her students or their business. I listened and have to agree. I was upset and should have waited to post my review and maybe tried to talk to someone else. The manager was upfront and so was I. She was right in that I should have made an effort to resolve it and give them a chance to fix my hair. I'm very open and I would never post a review I would not say to the person's face. I did not mind her approaching me and I did apologize for the knee jerk review because I was upset. I really like this manager and have seen her there previously but not on the day of the review. Today Mindy did a great job and she was very professional and personable. She made sure to explain steps and what she was doing. My hair came out better than I had expected. I wanted to do another review because when I am wrong I'm not afraid to say it.

I live near Merrit Island and thought I would finally give this place a try. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised when I walked in. The wait was only 5 minutes and they were able to squeeze me in for a manicure/pedicure immediately. The check in process is easy. The front desk girl was very sweet. They have you pay in advance and tipping is optional. Not forced. This is a cosmetology school so my expectations were low as I am in full understanding that they are learning students. Patience is key but they also need constructive criticism to grow and become professionals. They offer all different hair services at very fair prices. There is even a barbershop. I was amazed by the men's haircut going in and out. They have the nail area and even offer massages. Everything is walk in basis but massages do require an appointment. For the nail experience...my nail tech was very friendly. She did everything by the guidelines. It felt very clean. I will disclose that I chose the color red and apparently according to her red, white and black are the most challenging. While the student was learning and had a marvelous personality, this was the longest pedicure of my life. It was over 2 hours!!! My toes looked a little uneven and rough even after all this time. I am fully aware they are learning and I felt bad that I needed to go but I did not anticipate over 2 hours for the pedicure. I had to opt for regular polish on my nails and skip the manicure because I couldn't be there any longer. As a mom of two.... 3 hours or more for nails is not practical for me. The nail tech was very apologetic. I would say if you come here...make sure you have plenty of time. I certainly did not get what I paid for and this was partially my fault. I would like to come back and try it again and perhaps other services but I'm a little terrified of the time duration.
