We knew we were on the right track, when less than a month after starting with their reading program, she lost her reluctance to even try to read. Till then, she'd hide under the furniture when she was supposed to read. Soon, with new confidence and enjoyment of reading, she started making noticeable progress at school. And she loves the tokens, games, and prizes that Sylvan offers to keep things fun. The directors, Pete and Matt, and all the patient staff have worked hard to help our child feel welcome and to meet her unique needs.

My son was really struggling with learning to read. We started him at sylvan a few weeks before he…read morestarted first grade. Now, after roughly 3 months not only is he finding it much more enjoyable to learn to read, but he's even one of the more advanced readers in his class. I've seen improvements in his handwriting. His spelling is still pretty bad, but he went from refusing to even attempt to write anything to now he is at least willing to sound things out and write things out phonetically. His only complaint about some of the tutors is that they make him do his work (which is exactly their job- I would not be as happy if they were not doing that), but overall he likes everyone there.

All I want is a safe, caring, and encouraging environment for them to grow up happy. They have been also super careful with covid which I really greatly appreciated :) The teachers are also very reachable and responsive. You can get direct access to teachers through the app... and the teachers will respond. You don't have to "call the office" and then the office would "take a message" type of black hole nonsense which of course calls never get returned.

Participating in Sunnymont-Westside has been one of the most empowering experiences, and I have noticed the positive effect it has had on my child's growth in a few months. As a first-time parent and secondary language speaker of English, I was a bit nervous about sending my kid to school. However, the supportive and welcoming atmosphere at Sunnymont-Westside has made the transition far smoother. Watching my child learn alongside other children, experienced teachers, and warm-hearted parents has been incredible. What's noteworthy is the support I received from the other parents. It's amazing how a group of strangers can come together, share their experiences, and form bonds. Of course, being a part of a parent-participating nursery school isn't always easy. It takes much more commitment, time, and work, but the rewards are well worth it. I learned so much about child development and witnessed firsthand my involvement's impact on my child's development. We grow together. The benefits of parent participation are clear - both for the kids and parents ourselves! Come and see why so many families love our program :)

CPPP truly is a village of caring teachers and parent volunteers who all work together to foster a…read moresafe and nurturing environment for the kids. The teachers meet each student and family where they are, and are incredibly accommodating to help with a gentle transition. Through the co-op format, I'm active in my child's learning journey. It's also allowed me to really get to know the other parents, all who share similar values and approach to parenting and early education. The sense of community I've felt here is truly invaluable. There's many opportunities to socialize with other parents through events and field trips Most important, I know my daughter is in good hands. CPPP's play-based format and carefully thought out curriculum has allowed my daughter to blossom into a confident and capable student. Socially and emotionally, she has thrived and I'm so happy to see her come into her own and develop friendships. Thanks to the trust that's been built with her teachers and parent volunteers, she's able to communicate her needs and feels comfortable asking for help. Academically, she's developed many skills that will prepare her for kindergarten. Theres so many takeaways from this incredible school. One that stands out is the "Calming Corner" the teachers created this past year, a space where students can process big feelings with the help of several calming tools and techniques, including books on emotions and their own calming feather to practice breathing and mindfulness. This space resonated so much with my daughter that she asked us to create a Calming Corner at home for her! We use it regularly. Thank you CPPP for equipping the next generation with the tools and skills they need to become emotionally intelligent and empathetic humans! I always struggled with the idea of my daughter being away from me. I highly recommend CPPP and the parent participation format for any parent who struggles with the same concept. CPPP is the perfect gentle transition for this, and the teachers and other parents are extremely supportive. I also highly recommend CPPP for parents and caregivers who want to be active in their child's learning journey in a safe and supportive environment.

Overall, very happy with their tutoring services.

He is turning 9yo now. Last year, I started sending my daughter as well -- she is 4yo turning 5yo. Kumon in general has provided the necessary training and skills to help my kids both adapt to and excel at Stratford-Los Gatos, which both attend. Kumon Blossom-Crest, under the direction of Darshini, has been a very positive experience for us. Darshini is flexible, energetic, motivational and positive with respect to her students and their parents. She brings a fun, light-hearted energy to the curriculum, while being very personable, warm, and congenial with the parents. She is flexible with our schedules and is committed to the success of each child.

Majority of the teachers are rude to the younger children, probably because they know that the younger children are defenseless - but this will only hurt their future. Know better next time. It's genuinely so stupid seeing "kind" ppl being so rude to these cute children The one with the decored nails (she looks Hawaiian or smt) is pretty rude .. They kept us for an HOUR - twice the length of a regular class and said it was only gonna be 5-10 minutes. Hell na Fix yourselves .....
