I hate to leave this review because the therapist that evaluated my children was wonderful…read more However, the office communication was very, very poor. My son had evaluation for speech therapy in which when I started services with let's talk they told me that they would have morning available appointments after we did the evaluation we would be able to get started. Nothing was mentioned about months and months long waiting list. After my son had his evaluation no follow up was done at all with me. I had to call back multiple times myself and inquire about what was going on in which I was told his report was being completed and after that they would call me no call ever came. I had to keep calling them back five weeks after his evaluation they finally told me that he is on a waiting list for 3 to 6 months and I don't even think they would've ever told me that if I didn't call myself. Again I have no issues with the office. I really enjoyed the therapist and I wish that my son could start services there but 3 to 6 months is just a really long time when looking for early intervention.

My child started with Ms. Cathy in July 2025 the same week we moved to the desert. It was a rough…read moreyear as we had lost our home in LA earlier that year and because we were hopping around to different Airbnbs, I had to pull my child out of kindergarten. My child was very sad and would often cry they couldn't read. They knew all their letter sounds but wanted to be able to read "big kid words and books". Just 9 months later my child, now in 1st grade, is not only reading but reading books and testing at a 3rd grade reading level. My child is so proud of themself and we are so grateful for Ms. Cathy. She was not only an incredible reading tutor and mentor but she was a warm and strong constant in our child's life while things were wildly shifting and changing. She runs and engaging and motivating reading program they any child could benefit from. So grateful for discovering Tutoring by Cathy Bray and the time we've gotten to spend with her. If you're seeking academic support for your child in the desert whether long term, summer or reading groups this is absolutely the place to go!

If I may add, many people believe that this school is a "scam" per say. I absolutely disagree, yes…read moreit has its flaws but do you honestly think that your student deserves to be downfall by others who think this school is terrible. This school has led others be the bright student they really are. Many mainstream schools push there students to the max about there stress, self esteem, and making them think that your grades are all that matter. Yes it's true school is important for your future to a extent. If you really put your mind into it you will succeed by how will you do that if you have 1 hour worth of school work with each subject, that's 7-8 hours of school work at home, 8 hours of school, 8 hours of sleep, and then what about personal things. There are only 24 hours in a day. This school allows you to succeed in your daily life without having stress that can last a life time. Now let me tell you it's not for everyone It really isn't. You have to give it a chance. And for the ones saying kids are failing it really isn't the school fault because teachers are available in any way there is no excuse. Now let me ask you this are you willing to put your child in a life time trauma or are you willing to let a school have your student thrive in what they love to do, because it all matters in what your student really wants.

Ok, where do I start with this nightmare of a school? First of all, In my opinion, this place is a…read morecomplete scam. They lure you in pretending to be a Montessori style school that is interest led and will let your child learn in his or her own way. In my experience that couldn't be further from the truth. This place has very few credentialed teachers and the rest are just there babysitting. The place is run by a woman that employs all of her underqualified children in positions they are in no way qualified for. This place is the poster child for nepotism. The place has an administrator that is a young girl with no experience in the field of administration or education. She has no idea how to handle problems as they arise. They've had a rash of drug problems in the school that they sweep under the rug because this is a for-profit school and they are only interested in having the attendance numbers as high as possible so they can make money. I experienced a bullying problem at the school where kids can pick on each other and not get suspended from school or disciplined. The main administrator is never on campus and that leaves your children to be watched by her kids that act as administrators but actually have no experience in that field or even experience with kids as they are kids themselves. Since we were there, every year all the best teachers leave once they realize the place is a scam and don't want to take part in hurting the student's education any longer. We also learned that the teachers are not allowed (prohibited by the administration) to tell you if your student is falling behind or doing poorly because they need your funding money worse than they need your child to succeed in their education. The place is so troubled that they have had students cutting themselves (self-mutilation) on campus and they never made the parents of other students aware of the situation. when asked about the problems on campus the administrator will make it seem like you have no idea what you're talking about. We were told that their philosophy is "your child will learn when they are ready". You will get a weekly newsletter that will say all the things your kids did in class that week, but what they don't tell you is if your child didn't want to do any work that week or any week they didn't have to, I mean literally they will not be made to complete anything, and if they do assignments wrong they are not corrected. The teachers will actually make fake work to put in your child's folder to send to the charter school to keep their funding rather than have your child do the work themselves. Our experience is your child will learn very little and definitely less than a public school. I have never seen anything like this in all of my years as a parent. This is a scam of the worst kind, the kind of scam that makes money off of ruining your child's education. If you care about your children and their education please do not enroll your child in this school and if you are enrolled take your child to another school. This is a poorly run daycare at best that runs from preschool to high school. by the time you realize your child isn't learning anything, ​it's too late.
