Doing my little teacher happy dance. Came here for some beginning of the school year supplies and…read morefound out that teachers get free laminating services. Unfortunately that night it ran out and the worker couldn't change the laminating Supply but it's definitely good to know that I can come back and get them done for free. Their prices are no different than going to the other teacher stores such as Lakeshore.

I have found the girl who works there to be sweet and helpful for suggestions of products they sell being age appropriate. I also like the fact that they do wrap the items in a choice of wrapping papers and ribbons as well as give gift receipts. This makes it so much easier in a bag and ready to go. Ive found the retail cost compatible to the few other similar places that I have visited. Tip: Dont bother to call. They Never answer the phone, should I have a question better to just go in person, as Idid today only to find that they didn't have the item that I was looking for. They do not open until 11 AM. Ok so toys and what not are not a must have at 9 am - most times anyway. I do not recall them having much if any card selections. True there are many places around to buy cards. Again a 1 stop shop to grab a birthday card at the front counter of the store is helpful though perhaps not business cost efficient. Easy corner location, angle parking access and well lite, its my first choice of places to go for gifts. Tip: check on line for things that you might be looking for and then, shop in store for things directly available.

Definitely go here if you need a something laminated…read more Came by on Saturday to have two posters laminated. Brought a small poster and it went well. The second poster was much bigger, 3 feet by 2 feet. It's a great poster because the art was custom made by order and the quality of the material. I understand getting something laminated is risky so I mostly inquired about it. Spoke with a female employee about the poster and told her what concerns I had. She mishandled the poster and made some mistakes that left me quite unsatisfied. Minor bubbles and wrinkles on one side of the poster. I then proceeded to share a review online on the whole ordeal. The business owner got wind of my review and proceeded to communicate with me. He started the conversation being very apologetic and offered his condolences. I came by to talk to him in person since I was close by. He explained what went wrong when the lamination was done by his employee and apologized. They'll learn from this mistake and will implement ways to prevent this from happening once again... which I greatly appreciated. Business owner offered to fix my laminated poster which I declined. I'm sure it would of came out great if he was doing it, but I just wanted to give it a try. I highly recommend this place because I'm sure they'll do a great job at laminating your poster/picture. The business owner has over 15+ year of experience in laminating posters. So I'm sure he'll do a great job at it and he's there majority of the time. The female employee won't repeat the mistake she made, so I'm sure your item will now be in great hands. I greatly appreciated on how much the owner cared about his customers troubles. Also.... go there to support small businesses! Staples employees will sure as hell not give a damn on any mistakes they make.

Shopping at Teachers Choice Plus was fun. I felt like home because Chris and the 2 ladies there…read morewere so helpful answering questions and helping me find teaching supplies. The past 2 times I went, I bought birthday crowns, birthday pencils, a mini visual timer and a large visual timer. I also bought borders, magnetic tape, bee tape, book marks, motivational sayings, mini band set, etc. It is always a pleasure to shop here. Teachers Choice Plus gets 2 thumbs up from me!

I have come to this location a few times because whenever i buy gifts for little cousins or my…read morefriends kids i try to get something nerdy and educational, or something that will be fun for them. Lets face it if its something that they can learn from it may turn into something great for them. Primarily this is where they have a lot of supplies for educators. I have checked their online store before i come in but when you arrive its a magical land where everything is labeled clearly and easily reached for the most part. I Have purchased fun stickers here and they have quite the sticker collection. My latest find was something i had drawn with as a kid and i wanted to get something a little more creative for a 4 year old than just blocks or kitchen accessories. it was this black paper that when you scratch it away it has rainbow colors underneath. i brought it for my little cousin and she loved it. i dont think she had ever seen that before and i become the cool cousin 100x over! best $20 i spent. they had plain rectangular sheets and also a set of sheets that were shaped like different animals. cant wait for someones next birthday to check out! Highly recommend this place because the staff is super friendly and helpful also!

One of the best places to purchase teacher supplies. I teach in Brooklyn, NY, but I still drive out…read morehere to get supplies for my classroom every year. I typically order online and pick up in store. They have a huge variety of classroom supplies, decor, furniture, and toys. They also have a giant laminated machine. I was disappointed with my in-store experience this year. I had to wait almost 20 minutes for an online pickup. I believe there should be a separate line for this . It would definitely make the checkout experience more efficient.

I've been shopping at Teacher's Choice in Midwood for over 8 years now. I'm an elementary school…read moreteacher and the Mother of a curious, brilliant (and sometimes rambunctious!) 5 year old named Theo. We LOVE shopping here for 2 reasons - 1) the warm & friendly customer service, and 2) the varied selection of educational resources. My son LOVES shopping here. I've never been to a store that gets Theo as excited at this one...and I'm pleasantly surprised (okay, actually ecstatic) that his fave shop happens to be a book store. I have to take a moment to thank the Store Manager (forgive me, I'm terrible with names; she's the woman w/ the black bob haircut) who takes the time to engage Theo every time he walks in. She empowers him by asking him about his day, talks to him about school and then walks us BOTH through the store as we go through our list. Even if the store is super busy (and quite often, it is), she takes the time to give Theo a handshake and asks about his progress. Honestly guys -- this kind of personalized service doesn't happy anymore. I'm proud to support a local business that employs people like her b/c god knows I'd never get someone this knowledgeable and kind at a big box retailer. Oh, and their selection of testing resources and educational materials is unmatched! I shop here for school and home, and I've never been disappointed. Theo and I would highly recommend Teacher's Choice to educators, mothers, and children, alike!

I look forward to coming here again to buy seasonal classroom decor. The only area of growth for this establishment is it's location; it's the last stop on the 2 train and a 10 min walk from the train. All in all, this is a great store for affordable teacher supplies.

Whether you need to wish someone 'Happy Birthday' or tell them 'Thank You', Paper Source on Pondfield Rd in Bronxville, has a lovely range of unusual, heartfelt and premium greeting cards for so many occasions. Don't forget, there are also creative small gifts to choose from. Walls on either are taken up by 'Thank You', 'Birthday' 'Religious', 'Friendship', etc card categories and center of the store has small gift items propped up on tables. Service from two young ladies was fine and felt when I asked for help, they were willing and able. Prices are a bit steep- but considering the 'wow' factor I picked up from the 2 cards I purchased, a Recipe box with the appropriate index cards to gift to my daughter and a Frida Kahlo canvas pouch I couldn't pass up, this spot is alright. I thought I liked Papyrus- but Paper Source is the perfect place to pick up a striking card or two- or 3- I think. I'm not sure how frequently their items change- but this is a nice treasure trove.
