I…read morewas skeptical about this business for the quantity of reviews they have, and just decided to trust my inner voice and give it a chance. First, when we had arrived to the address, i was not sure if it was the right place; for it being the house not a commercial building. During Mrs.Linda's demo class i was sitting in the same room, as minutes went by i was falling in love with her, her method and her teaching style. "Wow what a gem i found"!!! I thought.... Dear parent, don't be mislead by the number of reviews they have, this little kingdom of knowledge is such a gem, your child will benefit from learning here in so many ways. I'm excited and my baby is willing to come back to visit Mrs. Linda. I trust my daughter, if she liked the person and the energy of the house, we're in the right place!

Trust, compassion, acceptance, kindness, support... these are just a few words that describe the…read morequalities that Linda, Bob and staff nurture at The Neilson Academy. What is most important is that they accept each student as an individual and develop a curriculum that carefully strengthen core levels of learning. This in turn develops a more self confident child. Elliott had a very challenging time in the public school system before finding The Neilson Academy. With in six months Elliott has developed consistent work habits, he has learned an inner responsibility toward him self and a greater respect for others. The Neilson Academy creates a safe nurturing environment for this type of development. Elliott has a stronger sense of himself and understanding on how to realize his dreams of being an actor. The Neilson Academy embraces each child and their unique individual potential. As a parent I felt completely safe about dropping him off everyday, I as a parent felt supported knowing that Elliott was loved and honored, with compassionate direction. Elliott is a more confident and determined child, which has much to do with the stewarding of this special school and staff. With Gratitude, Elizabeth Moore

We began searching for a tutor that would be the "right fit" for our daughter, Vyla, some time ago…read more During the 2020-2021 year (4th grade), our daughter was lucky enough to be in-school learning, as COVID prevented many from not being in-school. However, Vyla had been struggling since the beginning of her 3rd grade year, when COVID first hit. Her studies took a nosedive and we had been playing catch-up since. Although being in school was incredibly valuable, she continued to fall behind. As Vyla entered the 5th grade, we were determined to get her caught up as quickly as possible. We considered a few other services, which all looked great, but there was something very warm and positive about Marsha when we discussed Vyla and our determination to get her back to grade level. Marsha reviewed Vyla's background, listened to all of our concerns, reviewed an academic evaluation we had Vyla complete, and discussed an education plan moving forward .When Vyla began the 5th grade, we then reevaluated what Vyla should be doing, based on what was going on in her class. Marsha focused on Vyla's gaps, and with each session, Vyla became more confident, and more focused! When we started, Vyla was hesitate, as Marsha was "new" and she was not sure if she would work well due to having to complete her schoolwork; she was worried about being over-worked. But with each new session, Marsha showed Vyla that studies could be fun! Marsha challenged her with quiz's, facts, flash cards, and Vyla could feel the improvement in her studies. As the school year has progressed, Marsha was quick to utilize the areas Vyla was working on in school, as well as testing her on her spelling, math, and reading. Marsha is kind, patient, and very accommodating. She is willing to work with your schedule, and is flexible provided you keep in communication with her. She wants to work with children, and you can tell she cares - she cares about their wellbeing, education and self-esteem, which is very refreshing. We are very happy we found Marsha, and intend to keep working with her for the rest of the school year, and hopefully next year as well! We completely recommend and appreciate Marsha, who is truly a friendly, experienced and professional tutor. Thank you!

She's been in this industry since her teens and so not only is she a incredible instructor but full of wisdom and willing to share and advise. I feel so blessed to have her as my teacher and friend now ! If you are wanting to learn music skills from songwriting to singing on the mic or playing instruments EEI is a central hub for all of those options that any artist looking to submerge themselves in single or multiple fields. How many places can you really find that do that ? On top of it they are all good and kind people there who encourage anyone who is wanting to be creative and explore the endless possibilities. It makes a world of a difference to be surrounded by the right comforting people especially as a vulnerable and developing artist coming into this field. Thank you EEI !! See you in class ! ^_*

Nathalie is not only an amazing tutor, but an incredible person as well. She is kind, patient and…read morebrilliant. She knows every subject inside and out and is the best tutor for all of them. She cares about her students in the most meaningful way. She individualizes her approach to fit each person academically and personally. There is no such thing "as one size fits all", and all her students, especially my son, walk away from each session feeling how much she cares and feeling like they will succeed. We have been with Nathalie for nearly 6 years and we couldn't have made it through all the academic strain, crazy rollercoaster of the pandemic or the day to day without her. She has brought a 4th grader with severe Dyscalculia constantly forward and consistently tackling every grade level concept. He is now in 10th grade and she is by his side and the best possible guidance we could ever hope for. She has also given him great strides in writing, science and math, She has brought us all from a place of doubt to feeling that all things are possible and his future is so very bright.

From the very beginning she clicked with my son who was struggling in math. She made him feel comfortable and provided him with worksheets and tips on solving equations which helped him tremendously.

Melissa is the one, and I truly recommend her to every single one of my friends. Please reach out! Not to forget her prices are very reasonable as well! Thank you so much one again Mel!

I love this school. My daughter is enrolled in the Toddler program and started last year when she…read morewas 2yrs old. My daughter is very happy there - she does the full day and the aftercare program. She will be continuing this year with the same teacher. The guides are thoughtful and so experienced. I feel supported as a parent and I have learned a ton about how to interact and deal with difficult situations that come up in toddlerhood (potty training, sleep transitions, picky eating, boundary pushing, etc). It has helped me keep my sanity. Additionally, the parent community is awesome and the school events are thoughtful and fun.

We enrolled our child at AAM excited about the schools' arts focus and community. Unfortunately,…read moreour experience was deeply disappointing. During the school year, multiple children in the TK class were involved in incidents that were not handled appropriately by the classroom or administration. The situation ultimately resulted in a teacher facing criminal charges for "willful cruelty to child", along with documented concerns involving multiple children. As parents, it was incredibly difficult to continue sending our daughter into an environment we no longer felt confident in her safety of the school or PUSD leadership's judgment. Our concerns extend beyond one classroom or one teacher. In our experience, Principal Dr. Hill did not provide the level of leadership, transparency, or accountability we expected when seriously concerns were brought forward. We repeatedly left conversations feeling that our concerns were minimized rather than addressed directly, an dour confidence in the administration quickly eroded. Parents, teachers, and aides had all brought up concerns to the principal before the teacher's actions escalated to a criminal level. She did nothing to prevent harm coming to students. To be fair, there were a few positives. Our child loved making friends and there are caring staff members who genuinely want the best for students. However, trust is foundational and once that trust is broken, we could not justify keeping our child there. We ultimately withdrew from the district entirely. Every family's experience will be different, but I believe prospective parents deserve to know that serious concerns arose during our time there and to ask detailed questions about school culture, supervision, and how concerns are handled before enrolling.
