Procedures are being followed hand washing, temperature are taken sanitizers are in place and off course wearing mask is vital. My 3 kids love it here learning is getting easier for them just by the 2 weeks they been going their learning have gone to the next level. The Knowledge Shop has the best parent educator I have met Mrs.Yolande and her tutors are very helpful that will help your child get ahead or if they are just struggling with a subject. I highly recommend this awesome place that is all about learning. I want to thank Mrs.Yolande,Ms.Yamalita Professor Batie, and all the tutors.

It was frustrating that the Director/Owner ignored my messages despite my trying multiple times to resolve the issue with the site director before reaching out to her. The staff says what you want to hear, but again and again no change is made. Disappointing from an owner that is a former educator so she is well aware of the screen time limits and recommendations for elementary aged children. I have noticed that some sites are being run much better than others, so be aware to actually check on what your child is doing each day there after homework is done. Don't rely on the staff, but check internet usage and ask your child. Maybe your school site program differs.

This location is at the beautiful Turning Point School in Culver City, adjacent to Surfas, and the metroline. The parking lot is small but the staff were great at directing traffic and getting everyone in and out. They ask you to walk your child for check-in on the first day, and then your child may be dropped off at valet on the subsequent days. Pick-up is always inside and you must show ID (nice safety measure). My daughter made a vacuum and was so excited to share her experiences each afternoon at pick up. She also had an unfinished (?) nightlight in her bag on her last day. We purchased the extended care for the week (because we work full-time regular office hours and planned to have our daughter there from 8-6). The last day (Friday) had a "closing ceremony" at 2:30 PM. I was disappointed because we weren't aware of this at enrollment. It was very difficult to attend and the entire camp literally closed down afterwards. Luckily I got the day off, but otherwise, my daughter would have been "stuck" there until 6 and it really did feel like they were "done". Most of the kids already had a mindset that they were done and packed, and the staff seemed to be ready to say goodbye as well. Meals and snacks are not included - bummer! Choicelunch, a hot food delivery service is available. One other disappointment for me - I decided to change locations (from Culver City to Brentwood) because of the commute and was charged a fee. Culver City was already waitlisted, so in my opinion, I just freed up another spot for them and shouldn't have accrued a charge. The customer service representative told me that it "takes a lot of work" to exchange locations but I just don't understand it. Galileo is new to So Cal and I would expect them to make some exceptions, especially if I'm helping them out (by freeing up a space). It's difficult to say if we'll return to Galileo next year. My daughter enjoyed it but she has enjoyed all the other camps she's attended. She's got an outgoing and fun personality, and she doesn't have difficulty meeting friends and enjoys challenges. There are other camps in LA that are also fun, offer meals and/or snacks and are less expensive.

When I arrived I was told to go in the waiting line because my appointment was not on their lists despite having various confirmations via text letting me know it was confirmed. They claim that they print the appointments lists at 7am and never get an updated list all day. This is a failure in process and an outrage. If you don't give the guy outside a new list after making appointments for more people on the same day, you're setting yourself up for failure and enraging the community. Also, the concept that telling someone that has an appointment that they no longer have an appointment will make them walk away when they need the vaccine, and could potentially get more people sick, just due to your failure in process.
