Everyone in the office knows who she is and she knows all of them, by name and face. I really love that my lil one's teacher uses Classroom Dojo to keep in constant contact with the parents of the students. I feel like the environment at the school is perfect for my lil one. She has already shown so much growth and an increase in her self esteem. I have no complaints.

I am really ecstatic to have my son go to Glassell Park Early Educational Center. My son started…read moreschool at 3 year old. This is going to be my son second year going. It was a bit scary sending him to school during the early pandemic period but this school has definitely made my son and I feel safe and valued. I like how friendly everyone is and the environment is very earthy. Learning wise is mainly hands on. Safety protocols have been added to the school to ensure that all staff members and students are being kept safe from covid. Thermometer checking before entering the school & sanitizing hands. Students also wear mask and other protocols to secure that students can learn in a healthy environment. My son's behavior has improved drastically thanks to his teacher, Ms. Artoonian. She also informs me on how to help my son with subjects that come as a struggle or that he needs to work on at home. I really like how she keeps me updated on the school app ClassDojo. She send me pictures of my son and activities for example water play and artwork that he brings home. The school also celebrate holidays and the children are able to dress up for Halloween. My son was even able to go on a school field trip. He was also able to celebrate his birthday and allowed to bring cupcakes and juices for the class. I really appreciate that my son was able to have his special moment, in contrast to other schools which might not allow; due to covid. Overall, this school has proven to be a fun, safe and educational facility that I trust and can confidently leave my son while I go to work. Knowing how much this school has influenced the progress of my child's education has given me hope that he will do great in the rest of his education.

Called last week and left my insurance information with someone who said I'd receive a call back…read more When I hadn't heard I left a voicemail. Called back a 3rd time only to be put on hold to see if there was someone in admin who could help assist me. The woman came back on the phone suddenly saying the don't take my insurance, even thought their website states they do and the person I previously spoke with said they do. When I brought this up she then said they're at capacity for Anthem insurance holders. She sounded unsure and like she just wanted to get me off the phone. Based off this wildly unprofessional interaction, I would not trust them for my child's care. Look elsewhere.

Once my son got into an early intervention program that was 8am-1pm suddenly every therapist had a full & conflicting schedule. Scheduling never offered a waitlist option and pretty much terminated services. I wish it hasn't been that way considering many other children also utilize other services like pt, speech, aba, floortime etc, I'm sure I wasn't the only parent with limited availability. Anyway, thanks again Julia for working with Gino and for being patient with him and us at the start of this journey.

A super duper cool and quirky shop! Everything is time travel themed: past, present, and future!…read moreWhen you visit, you can park on the streets, but be mindful of the signs. You can also download the park smarter app to pay for parking online. The storefront is very impressive. There are aliens, extraterrestrial themes, and 3D mind boggling designs. You come inside, and everything is already very quirky. You have robot emotions for sale, time travel in a bottle, space items, donuts from the 1800's and light coffee. You can also find dinosaur eggs, dinosaur milk, and more. Everything is super fun to look at and the items made me giggle out loud. The cashier was super friendly! He explained the theme of the shop and also added on how the books in the store were made by students. The store itself supports a nonprofit located in the back of the shop that tutors students. They ask for volunteers who can come to help support students. All proceeds also go to the students whom they support. We left with some postcards and warm, fuzzy feelings inside about how cool of an experience this was. Hope to be back! We might be from the past, present, or future. Who knows!

Just wanted to check it out and when I got in there, someone who was super friendly was behind the counter and we got to look around at some cool stuff. They also do other charity based activities here and I'm not sure if it's just one thing or a few but definitely come check it out. If I remember correctly, the one that I was thinking of helped out children.

Jane Chen has been wonderful in helping my daughter improve her singing techniques and overall…read moreconfidence. Her voice lessons are taught in a very comfortable, supportive, and non-threatening environment, which really helped my daughter feel at ease while learning.

I'd always been interested in singing, but after hearing myself attempt to sing in the past, I was…read moreconvinced I was tone-deaf and felt discouraged. After my acting teacher recommended all actors do vocal training, I took the opportunity to try it. As an adult beginner with no real singing experience, searching for a place to start was intimidating, but I'm so glad I took the leap with this studio. Through the Vocal Foundation program with Stuart Wheeler, I've learned that I'm indeed NOT tone-deaf, and that with the right training and technique, I've been able to unlock a part of my voice that I've not been able to access until now. Stuart is a highly-skilled teacher, singer, and musician, with the ability to articulate complex musical terms in a way that easily clicks in my mind (and I'm not an easy person to teach!). He is a patient, compassionate instructor who provides a safe, fun space to learn and explore. I've enjoyed being able to choose the songs that we work on. My lessons have always been insightful and surprisingly empowering. In just a few months, I've gained much more control and confidence in my own voice, expanded my range, learned to be more mentally focused and present, and have sharpened my listening skills. I can now sing for pleasure without being so self-conscious. My vocal training has even helped improve my piano and guitar practice! The session rates are reasonable and the location/parking are convenient. I haven't had a chance to work directly with Jane but she has been lovely over our communications. Overall, I've gained so much from my training here and I look forward to continuing.

Asking $35 JUST SEND A COPY of I-20 and they do NOT give you WHOLE pages. Untrustworthy staffs and POOR services. THEY ONLY WANT MONEY!!!! It was written to prevent the same happening to others in the future, and I'm truthful. Additional Comment : I-20 is a set of three pages. Requesting all 3 of the I-20 is not a special request. On the phone I told them the exact requirements I needed the full pages, and they told me to send an email. So I sent an email and the money! Afterthen, they didn't send that I asked on the phone and saying they didn't heard anything about my request. KEEP LYINGGGG And saying its my fault cause I didn't mention it! At least, they should have told me they don't have the documents on the phone. + all of them NEVER SAY SORRY about the poor service!

Great place to donate items. I called beforehand and made sure that they were open and was able to…read moredonate stuff. The whole process was easy. You enter through their garage, where a friendly security guard helps guide you through the process. They also provide donation receipts if needed. They accept almost everything, including men's and women's clothing, books, shoes, and unbroken kitchenware. The only items they don't accept are children's clothing. The security guard let us know that the donations go directly to people experiencing homelessness, and there is also a women's recovery center upstairs that many of the items support. It feels much better donating here compared to street donation bins that often get tampered with. Highly recommend donating here if you're looking for a meaningful place to give back and wanting to donate your items.
