So the reviews you see below are clearly old. I agree, 2 years ago before my kids joined, the had…read morewonderful leadership & curriculum... we got the tail end of that and then watched this place completely fall apart. I have waited all summer to write this because I wanted it to be as un-emotional & succinct as possible. My kids attended 2 years of Montessori here. They loved the teachers but left for summer with very little support for the upcoming school year. Granted, one year was complex with COVID but there is no excuse to conduct a teaching environment if you're not following the Montessori method and actually teaching. I feel so sad for the teachers. They all mean well & love their students. However this place has had multiple admins turnover in a matter of 2 years, and teachers came & went just as easily. Unfortunately this was evident when multiple parents came together towards the end of the year and realized their kids (8-10) year olds still could not read at their grade level. This same group of parents spent their summer paying alternative schools (Kumon is who I hired) to supplement everything these kids had missed. Mind you, my son was complex and has not done well in any school due to a minor disability, however this wasn't just my son who required remedial tutoring & this review isn't solely based on my son's issues. They weren't proactive in helping me with educational resources , I had to get a 504 plan from a local elementary school, which he didn't even attend but they were willing to take me through the process. Along with charging a ridiculous amount of monthly tuition, they also had so many extra days off throughout the year...then charged extra for those care days if you were a working parent! I'm not talking holidays and 2 teacher work days. I'm talking once every month or two for no apparent reason, it was not on schedule with public schools many days they took off. They didn't pro rate, instead they charge you to "care" for, not teach your kids on those days off . the last month of school, also didn't prorate so you pay a month, get 21 days & then they charge you extra to help care for your kid the rest of the month! They also increased their tuition intermittently, I was paying approximately $1400+ per child. I'm telling you, this place will charge you & then send your kids home with subpar education to succeed thereafter. I am forever weary of Montessori going forward & have opted for charter.

Absolutely the worst staff you could imagine. It's too bad because there are many great Montessori…read moreschools out there that are excellent. The majority of the teachers are unprofessional and the principal does not have the leadership skills to identify or correct the problem. My child is in the 6th grade and several children have been inappropriately touched by other students and experienced racially related bullying as well. When parents spoke up, the staff retaliated against the students by taking away most of their privileges and cancelling all school events. Police have been present on the campus twice this year. My child, who has always been an A student, came home crying because his teacher led him to believe he is an F student. When I met with his teachers and principal, I found her story to lack any evidence and my son brought home all A's a few weeks later. I truly believe that the teacher was just being nasty. The principal and assistant supported this behavior from the teacher. I'm also shocked at the lack of education level of the faculty. There are very few times when there aren't spelling or grammar errors in what they distribute. My son has brought home reading materials with a set of questions for him to answer that didn't match the material. For the sake of the children in the Palm Harbor community that could benefit from a good private school, I hope there is a change in staff. This is not an inexpensive school by any means, I would not recommend considering this school at all.

Huntington Learning Center is terrific!…read more My daughter struggled from kindergarten through high school. Tutoring from Huntington Learning Center was *the* key to getting my daughter through middle and high school. The owner, Terri Davis, is warm and supportive.

She said he needed test scores so they could see what he needed to work in...perfect. My son just took both SAT/ACT so he called his school counselor and got his scores which he sent to Terri. She called my son back and told him he still needed to take their tests and that his score was very low. My son gave me the phone where Terri proceeded to tell me that anyone got an 800 on an SAT by writing their name on it to which I interrupted her to let her know that his recent score was a 200 point improvement and my son was excited he had improved but knew he needed a better score. She rattled off about having 25 years experience and said "I didn't know someone could score so low". I let her know that surely someone with 25 years experience would know that a test could come in that low and that we would not be requiring her services. My son is a bad test taker, he has anxiety he knows he has a lot of work to do, but this women had the warmth of Auschwitz, maybe she'd be better suited with scheduling tests for the DMV.

With that statement, came along rewarding skills, lifelong friendships and integrity. Like any student with any college, whether it being a traditional college, vocational, or trade school, comes hard work. When you apply yourself to the program given, you will be rewarded with this school. With no aviation background whatsoever and the willingness to succeed I found myself with an amazing company, paying nearly 30$ to start. My start to my career is not to be consider exotic in any way. Most of my classmates found themselves within the same pay grade. In addition, I looked at several trade/vocational schools, including Oil, Diving, and Dental/medical. There is no other school out there willing to give you the education that NATIONAL AVIATION ACADEMY will provide for their students. They genuinely care about each individual. I highly recommended this school to anyone looking to advanced in an infinitely growing aviation industry with endless opportunities. P.S. I am not paid or asked to provide this statement, I am simply a graduated student willing to express my gratitude to the academy, staff and anyone else involved in my success.

I am very pleased with kids cove academy in comparison to some other daycares I won't mention. Let's just say I switched five daycares in one year because I didn't see these other daycares meeting my children's needs. I wasn't just a parent who drops off and picks up I saw within as a worker and as a parent before kids cove became kids cove there was also Little Giants off Big Bend and Kids Cove Academy are probably the top two in the Riverview area & everything else is pretty average. I can say this because I either sent my children there or I worked there in the past ( five years ago or so) so I don't know how other child centers are now, but I want to compliment these two centers. Ms. Maribel & Ms. Chethana are excellent teachers & I'd recommend them both to anyone in the Riverview area needing VPK services.

My son has been going to the Kumon Center in Dunedin for 3 years now and is about to start 3rd…read moregrade in a private school. He is excelling in not only reading and math in school but in all the subjects. His teacher for the past two years has said he is by far the best student she has. A few notable differences his teacher notices of him vs some of the other kids who do not attend Kumon is that he reads all the instructions carefully BEFORE starting the work. Another difference is he is very quick in finishing the work/test. He is consistently one of the first to hand in his work. Not only is he quick but he's also accurate. The third is his confidence. He always participates in class discussions, willing to help his fellow classmates when they are struggling and the first to raise his hand. Just like most kids, he does complain doing the work however during his calm moments he does admit school work is easier for him than many of his peers. I hear this from his classmates parents too. They say their kids struggle with the homework and it takes them close to 30 min to complete it every night. My son in comparison completes the work in 10 min. There are many Kumon centers around and there maybe one closer than the Dunedin center to you. However not all centers are created equally. My husband and I interviewed 5 centers. Yes Interviewed. At first glance they all do seem to be the same however the biggest and most important reason we choose the Dunedin center is because Ms. Nayana Wable owns and teaches at the center. The other 4 locations we looked at the owner employed teachers but was not at the center day to day. Nayana owns the center and teaches there. Yes she has helpers but she is involved with every child. She knows the child's academic abilities, she knows each child's name and most importantly she treats each child with respect. She is tough but in a very gentle and loving way. If you are looking for a solution to help your child grow academically Kumon of Dunedin run by Nayana Wable is the center for you. One last thing. As a parent, you do need to trust the system and Ms. Nayana's teaching methods. It might seem repetitive and you may ask yourself why is my kid doing the same books over and over again. It's because Ms. Nayana teaches in a wholistic way. The child may know how to add, subtract, multiply but his/her handwriting still needs work or can't recollect the answers quickly. Speed and accuracy is very important to succeed as the child goes through the process. Same goes for reading. They may know the words and can read the sentences or paragraph, but can they read it fluidly and with ease, is the handwriting legible and neat. This wholistic approach is why I love Ms. Nayana's approach to teaching. Please do give it a try. You won't regret it. It's the greatest gift you can give to your child. They may not be happy with you now but trust me when I say they will thank you when they get into Highschool.
