    My daughter has always been bored and un-challenged by your average public school we tried lots of…read moreextra academic activities but nothing did the trick. But when we moved across the country and needed to find a new school i decided to give Dallas International School a try and i'm glad i did! They provide elective classes after school and their sports program is amazing!! My daughter is now challenged in the best way possible and i love seeing her work hard at school!

    We moved our pre-school aged daughter to DIS from a Montessori school because of the opportunity to…read morelearn another language at such a young age. The difference in the schools is dramatic. DIS is caring and also provides structure and curriculum that has our daughter coming home speaking french, and singing french songs. The teachers communicate well by sending daily updates, weekly pictures, and by providing the curriculum so we can reinforce what she has learned at home. Everyone at DIS cares about our daughter; from her teachers and the teachers assistants that are with her everyday, to the receptionist that greets her daily - "Bonjour!" We love DIS, the community feel, and are so grateful for the opportunities it will provide our daughter.

    This is an amazing library! And it's beautiful to look at too!…read more Anyone can get a card to use this library! Access everything on line or in person. It was time to get a library card that was mine! Was time to stop borrowing friend's cards. Why pay for books or buy books when your taxes, as a homeowner, offer you free book rentals! AMAZING!! I love to be read too and you can read a variety of books for free! The best bang for your buck! Really happy I discovered reading books again. Not sure why I ever slowed down. Collin County College is awesome! Simply need to go in person to apply for the card. It's so simple! It gives you access to ALL libraries in Collin county and the State of Texas. Everyone should have a library card! I wish more people would be interested in being part of a library. It's so cool to have access to knowledge. Be extraordinary and join any library across the country! The only draw back is they don't have audiobooks. Suppose students don't have time to read anything but text books! If you return the book late you will be charged late fees. Only fair. There are rules you have to follow. Others are waiting for that book: Be kind and return on time. July 2024

    BeepBoop has been the best way for me to learn Spanish. Over the years, I've taken in-person…read more Spanish classes and tried Rosetta Stone (when it first came out), Duolingo, and iTalki too. BeepBoop is a safe place to learn to talk with native Spanish speakers, learn more about the language, and get support from peers and your teacher as you improve. I've learned relevant Spanish (not random words I'll rarely use or only formal responses). It helps me think on my feet and really use the language every day. It has given also given me more confidence when speaking Spanish. I highly recommend it. I signed up for Pro during a sale, which helped.

    From the owner: Beepboop does not do the "usual" Spanish classes. We offer exciting Spanish Drills that have you…read morespeaking Spanish from day one. Our Spanish Drills are free and led by native Spanish tutors in a round-robin style. During Drill, students delve into fun group speaking exercises and role-plays that mirror real-world situations.

    Learning percussion with Rob Tovar is more than just about music. Yes you will get:…read more 1. A strong grasp on musical theory, chart reading, and rudiments. 2. A variety of techniques and approaches to how you want to play the drums. 3. Fast and accurate hands. 4. A crash course on every genre that makes money for a musician. 5. A foundational history lesson on the kit and its adaptation to digital era music. 6. How to take care and fully utilize one's drumming equipment. 7. Side-by-side kit allows for far more productive teaching sessions. But in my four years studying under Tovar, other perks I received included: 1. Someone to talk to during some rocky teenage years. 2. Mandatory accountability of items I saved up to acquire. 3. An understanding of the importance the music I had learned in regard to our world's culture. 4. A network connection in the Dallas/Texas/Southwest music scene. 5. But most importantly, a lifelong and loyal friend. I began taking lessons with Rob Tovar at the age of 15. I since went on to the Percussion program at Musicians' Institute in Hollywood, CA. I now teach percussion on the side out in Arizona as well as run some music clubs for the school at which I teach. I would not be able to contribute to my community to the level that I am able to without the guidance, instruction, and influence I received while learning percussion under Rob Tovar. Thank you for everything, Rob!

He is very patient and personable. Although I'm new at this, and my mistakes frustrate me, they don't phase him at all. He understands and helps you work thru the issues. I strongly recommend him. Rest assured, I will be back, and Neil Peart better watch out. I want his job.

They were so informative from the first call to the first meeting and they were extremely flexible with my schedule to get my son in and started for tutoring. I know he enjoys going in and loves being able to work on the computers. The teachers are so great and always smiling and are very genuine people that really do care. I would definitely recommend Explore Horizons for your kids tutoring.

    It's sad that students write negative reviews because they choose not to believe in Christ's word…read more Their upset because PCA won't water down the message of the Bible. Has nothing to do with the performance and quality of the academy. I'm a single mom with very limited income. My son had an amazing experience at PCA. When I lost my job and couldn't afford tuition, PCA did everything possible to keep my son there. Everything down to lowering tuition SUBSTANTIALLY to asking me to apply there!!! In the end I decided to put him in public school based on my financial situation. They were amazing! Let us out of the contract, offered very low tuition and even multiple months tuition free to help me get on my feet! When my son entered public (Plano) he was literally bored, because everything he was being taught, he had learned a year ago at PCA!!! Great place for the whole family, great experience and yes, good people that care!

    Not even a star. My son attended classes at PCA from second grade to almost end of high school…read more During that time, he was bullied by the teacher and staff to the point he decided that attending public school was a better fit. He was very deep into football and the football coach ran his offense as if the children were in college, meanwhile all the classes are accelerated. My son felt frustrated and alone with out support. There are no real christian values taught to show in his practical life. For as much as these folks wave the bible, they ridicule and bully their student body. The worst decision I made ever made, dont make this decision to take your kid there without knowing that these folks are mean, they are not forgiving and they dont have one christian bone in their judgemental bodies. Its run like a cult where everyone has to drink the water and their message with out question. No one is given compassion. If you call and decide to have a conference with the upper management or teachers, you will learn that your having a conference with the whole team, which makes you feel like their on the offensive before you even discuss your grievance. Speaking and talking to people as an adult about your grievances' isnt really permitted either. If you were really speaking outside of the school on the interaction and support about the school and the parents were not being recorded, they would tell you everything is horrible and its really not a good place but for fear of losing their son or daughters favor in the school, everyone remains quiet. The teachers and principles are all nepo babies and each person has been a track coach, a principal, a guidance counselor....then their husband or wife gets dragged in and becomes a part of the "team" where your not really learning from the best people but just who is avaliable and will subscribe to their "way of doing things" Its not a nice place for my son to grow up and I am glad I got out before he lost his sense of freedom and his self esteem. He left his junior year, and he worked harder to achieve because public school doesnt accept religious classes as history but I dont regret his decision to move on. In the end he made it to college just fine. Were fine but felt a need to speak my families truth. If you wanna waste your families money and time, send them to this school, point blank. My family makes good money and we are educated so this isnt an assessment from someone reckless, just someone that doesnt like to be bullied. Thank you
