My girls, my nephew, nieces etc have all attended Techlab camps at various times and I have recommended it to several friends as well. Hands down, one of the best camps I know in the area that truly inspires kids to learn programming. I love their simplistic, no-frills approach while still making sure that the learning is fun. Highly recommend!

John and…read morehis team worked closely with our son for four years, from course selection to summer camp application, and eventually through the college app process. He put a lot of thought and paid extra attention to every details of the application forms. He is our guardian on meeting every milestone in this journey. John is more of a mentor to my son as well. He helped him navigate through his stress and anxiety, so that he could focus on making progress in his course work and applications. He also help bridging the communication between us and our son, which we deeply appreciated to balance our relationship during the crunching times. We would highly recommend John, he is the one you can count on!

Entering my senior year of High School and the chaos of college applications, I was very lost on…read morewhat a strong college essay and application looked like. I remember having different extracurricular experiences to talk about but there was a missing piece of how to word my essay and let alone start on my essays. I spent 2 weeks blankly starring at my document before realizing I needed more help than I expected. It wasn't until I started working with John and Jamie that I was able to talk about my life experiences and turn them into strong essays that reflects who I am and the type of leader I am in any community. Working with them helped me quickly understand how college essays are structured and how I can word my experiences to illustrate my strong characteristics as a student and leader. I really appreciated the weekly workshops provided by Jamie and John for extra time to spend on essays. As someone who had a hard time finding time and motivation to work on my essays, the workshops and set meeting times held me accountable for getting my work done before each meeting. I would 100% recommend John's service to anyone else struggling during this process. I am now committing to UC Davis and I couldn't be more grateful for the help provided by John and Jamie.

If you're not a student with a parking pass, there's 40 minutes of free parking in the visitor parking lot. The current exhibition, "Reading the Landscape" by artist Mary V. Marsh, was interesting, exploring ways of communication in the evolution of technologies, including depictions of what you see on your phone and through media, combined with nature, hinting at the future. The gallery is a very small room, with limited access and no clear communication online about its hours. Apparently it's open by appointment only, according to the sign on the door, but I came during the artist reception for the current public showing. I appreciated the lovely display of unique artworks, with the artist on site discussing her creations and the methods and materials used. It was cool to check out on a Wednesday afternoon, free of cost.

We took almost every session until she was old enough for the Piano Explorer group classes. My daughter absolutely adores Sue and loves the weekly classes. Sue is very creative in her teaching. Her materials are exciting and original. She is so passionate about music and her love music is contagious. I am very picky about music education and Sue has checked every box. It is very hard to find a talented musician who is also an amazing teacher. She offers a wonderful balance of fun and discipline. First Movement also offers annual on-stage performance in a formal setting which is an added bonus. My daughter is already looking forward to the summer camps and semi-private piano classes.

Wonderful piano and violin lessons with supportive teachers!…read more The service here is warm, attentive, and very affordable. The school mainly focuses on children's learning and also offers great options for adults who want to pick up a hobby after work. I took piano lessons with Teacher Sue, and everything was going smoothly. Later, when the COVID pandemic hit, the lessons switched to online, and I gradually lost some of my passion. However, both Teacher Sue and another online instructor kept encouraging me. Even when I had to pause my lessons for a while due to a busy work schedule, they remained very supportive. Now that I'm ready to start practicing piano again, this piano school is still my number one choice! Also, Sue is very skilled in violin as well, if you're interested in learning violin, you can expect excellent instruction here too! 很棒的鋼琴和小提琴課程，老師們也非常支持我！ 這裡的服務熱情周到，價格也很實惠。學校主要專注於兒童學習，也為想要在工作之餘培養興趣的成年人提供了許多選擇。 我跟Sue老師學過鋼琴，一切都很順利。後來，新冠疫情爆發，課程轉為了線上，我漸漸失去了一些熱情。然而，Sue老師和另一位線上老師一直鼓勵我。即使我因為工作繁忙而不得不暫停課程一段時間，他們仍然給我很大的支持。 現在我準備重新開始練習鋼琴了，這所鋼琴學校仍然是我的首選！而且，Sue的小提琴技巧也非常精湛，如果你對學習小提琴有興趣，這裡也能提供優秀的指導！

My child's Aops math class, scheduled for this Sunday, August 31st, was canceled due to Labor Day…read more First, Labor Day is on September 1st. Why was the August 31st class canceled? Second, the institution only sent out one email notification and no other forms of communication. As a result, my elementary school-aged child was dropped off by their transportation service and left alone outside the classroom for an hour and a half, as they had forgotten to bring a watch or any other communication device to contact us. I hope that in similar situations, the institution will not only use email but also provide a second notification the day before the cancellation via text, voicemail, or a call. This would prevent similar incidents from happening again.

Who would have thought that Google's autonomous car had been an ongoing research since 2003? Almost every "upcoming" breakthrough in technology you hear in the news has been happening in-house long before everyone knows it, and SU is one of the best channels to get a good glimpse of this kind of technology. Learn first-hand how nanotechnology is used to curtail the world's leading causes of human maladies; be challenged to think exponentially - far beyond common case studies in tackling business and real-world scenarios through Kurzweil Technologies and X Prize Foundation; learn your genetic makeup and daily fitness analytics through 23andme's and fitbit's devices, and explore better ways of turning so-called obsolescence/untapped elements of the earth or solar system into sustainable and useful energy resources. The curriculum is converged by 2 programs: Executive Program and Graduate Studies Program. Leading thinkers from over 100 countries are selected to learn and share their ideas in space, robotics, networks, bioremediation / medical technological epiphanies among many others. From thereon, they can walk away with interesting ideas that can be applied to their respective lines of expertise and knowledge worldwide. The awesome part of this program is SU philanthropically chooses leaders in developing nations to enroll, all expenses paid, to grow more and provide better solutions to their nation's growing crisis. A noticeable demographics' basic necessities are not met in economically challenged societies, and SU aims to bring these respective pioneers to provide them with the tools and knowledge to tip the scales of poverty, hunger, and access to affordable medicine. Besides knowing what NASA has been up to lately, the best part is meeting very intelligent people and connections.

The classrooms and playground are fine, although due to the blacktop outside my sons NEVER wears shorts due to skinned knees. The teachers are harder to review, as each one is different and interacts with the kids differently. The newborn room was very relaxed, calm, clean, no shoes allowed, and quite. My youngest was always happy to go to school when he was in the newborn room. He was moved to the next room at age 18 months, then again at 2 years old. That is a bit too much changing around for a kid only there for a year, he's already had more than 8 different teachers. My 4 year old was in the 3 year old room for a year, and moved on to the 4 year old room just recently. He is pretty happy with his teachers, although he has had a couple issues with other students and we had to get the teachers involved they seems concerned and willing to work with us.
