I certainly didn't expect to learn as quickly as I am, and have fun at the same time! My main instructor, Varon, is patient, funny, energetic, creative, and helpful. He works hard to go out of his way to help you succeed. He met with me one-on-one (twice) to ensure I was getting the attention I needed and to ensure I was able to keep up with my classmate. The class sizes are small, 3 to 5 students on average, which I really appreciate not just for learning, but also, for the social interaction. Varon plans and schedules learning activities outside of class to engage with other students, which is a real plus, again for the cultural and social aspect. I recommend Boulder Spanish for a blast of rapid learning, high energy, friendly instructors, a comfortable environment, and fun!

I've been a Spanish student with Boulder Spanish for a handful of months now, and I can…read moreconfidently say that I'd recommend this organization to anyone looking to learn or enhance their Spanish. Varon and other teachers keep things fun and light, which I think is a great way to learn within small group formats. The additional outside the classroom social activities (i.e. hikes, trivia, dancing, cultural lessons, and drinks) that are included with your tuition are more great ways to meet others learning Spanish and are a perfect way to practice with those eager to do so. I plan to stick with Boulder Spanish for many more months, and encourage others to check them out!

Of 5 preschools that my kids have been through, this is definitely the worst. There appears to be…read moreno modern early childhood education in action, no conflict resolution taught, preschoolers are sent home or isolated within the school for saying unkind words and pushing verbal boundaries... I won't go into specifics to protect my and other kids' privacy, but message me if this is raising red flags for you... I would never let my kid set foot there again. Very rigid. Should have looked more into the approach of the director (who we never even met until there was a "problem"). Note that most of the positive reviews are quite old when it was under different leadership. Two stars just for the beautiful setting and farm animals, which really drew us in (but turned out to be superficial and far less important than how children are treated - obviously).

We have felt moved to share our experience at BWK because it has truly changed our life. Our son…read morehas attended since he was 2.5yrs old (he is 6 years old now) and our youngest has just started at 2 Years old. We feel very grateful to have been introduced to waldorf by chance. We live just down the road and discovered it by driving past the quaint adobe school building and huge , peaceful, tree covered play yard with goats and chickens roaming about. From an outside perspective , it looked like an extension of home; and it has proven to be just that. The teachers are people of integrity, authentic, kind, and nurturing . They hold the kids so beautifully and create days full of wonder and beauty. It becomes obviously quickly that the priority at BWK is To nurture the children from a young age to be confident, curious, gentle, and intentional beings. There is a huge emphasis on social emotional learning and development and the entire faculty support the children and families to create a joyous environment where all are treated with respect and kindness. Now that we have been a part of the school for four years, with kids in two different classrooms , we can attest that it truly feels like the "village" that we have lost in this society. Recommend sending your child at any age if you are seeking a welcoming and safe school, with a strong and connected community of parents and faculty

Don't be surprised if this review is met with a defensive, minimizing, or manipulative reply - my personal experience predicts this will be the case. I have seen the director Michael on Facebook telling parents not to pay attention to the Colorado Shines website to me that should be a Red Flag they not only have something to hide but are actively working to hide it. For a school that has been around since 1970 you would think they could pass an inspection by now without manipulation or paying someone - see photos.

The Little Red School House, as Children's House is so lovingly referred to in our family, has been…read morethe only preschool I've sent my children to (once they reached 2 1/2) upon arriving in Boulder, from an inner city environment 4 years ago. My oldest, who is now going into 1st grade, was in need of a lot of stimulation outside of the home when he was little. He was one of those very active, curious kids always seeking out new adventures and interests. The education staff took great care in feeding that curiosity from the first day. Their story book journey curriculum is a tested and proven method (see Ashley Merriman's and Po Bronson's, Nurture Shock) for early childhood education success across all areas of learning, whether it be speech, pre literacy, social awareness, personal development, gross/fine motor etc. My husband and I beamed when our 3 year old son came home with books on sharks for us to read to him from the school and started memorizing facts and reciting them to friends and relatives. It seemed he had met his match. As an elementary age kiddo he has flourished into a very kind, loving, enthusiastic and confident student. I give a lot of credit for that to Elaine, the director at Children's House. Our youngest son will be starting his final year at CHP in the fall. He has developed so much from their care by learning self confidence, self reliance and finding his own voice. He is now looking forward to being a leader for next years students and I know he will continue to thrive in this loving, nurturing environment. A point worth making is that it is a one room school house meaning the children are of mixed ages together throughout their day. I can only speak from my family's experience but it has been wonderful to watch our children flourish as they get older, growing first from silent observer, to active participant and lastly to confident leader. The one room serves as a wonderfully safe and creative environment to explore through play, art, music, and pre literacy story telling. While it is a very active and diverse classroom, each child really does find their own sense of peace and space to grow within it. Children's House Preschool has been a very, very positive experience for my family.

After having had the pleasure of teaching in some of the finest preschools for 30 years, I can only…read morebegin to sing the praises of The BellaVita School. Nurturing, kind, loving staff with excellent ideas for their children to take off and blossom. Their staff loves what they do, they love the children, and they certainly teach respecting our earth and one another. If I lived in Colorado, I'd be clamoring for a position there. Luckily I can visit from time to time and know my precious grandson enjoys his weekdays there, encouraged every day to be as fully HIM as he can be. That's just how BellaVita runs. Any child lucky enough to be a part of this organization is reaping the benefits of their lucky stars.

This school, and it's teachers are, without a doubt, the cream of the crop. My son is 3 1/2 and I couldn't ask for a more amazing place for him to be when he isn't with us. I checked out every preschool imaginable and there is no other place like The Bella Vita School. The children are cherished and treated like the very special individuals that they are. They get to garden, help make meals, learn Spanish, dance, science and herbs, math, reading, art and music. There is a ton of outdoor time(great back yard space with wonderful play structures, slides etc..) and a low student-to-teacher ratio that is so very important to a healthy learning environment for academics, socialization and emotional growth. The curriculum is very special and beautiful and includes friendship studies, job days, journals, and emotion cards to name a few. The vegan snacks and meals that are provided are delicious and the healthiest you will find anywhere. They offer half day and full day programs, which are very flexible and an AMAZING summer camp as well!! We have loved spending time at the monthly family get-togethers and wonderful school events that are put on by the staff. All of the families who send their children there are very down to earth and a real pleasure to be around. Most important, my son is so happy to go to school and is always sad to leave! We can't recommend The Bella Vita School more!!

You will be so pleased that you chose Huntington Broomfield. You will look back on this time and…read moresay not only did my child find highly qualified committed caring tutors and also that Melissa and team see and appreciate your child for who they are and the gifts they bring.  Both my kids worked with Melissa and team solely on Zoom. One kid is very driven. One struggled quite a bit with self-confidence. Melissa met each kid exactly where they were at and gave them the praise and encouragement they both needed. She helped them approach the test fully grounded in real self-confidence. She also taught them life lessons of how to prepare for tests in college and grad school and for challenges in life. Many families regard test prep as a stressful, dreaded time. I guarantee you: Melissa will fill you with the confidence that she's got your kids and thanks to Melissa, your kids have got this!

I feel very passionate about my review. It is very…read moreupsetting to see that the Broomfield Huntington has such poor reviews. IT IS JUST NOT TRUE! If you press on REVIEWS NOT RECOMMENDED at the bottom of the review section, you will see so many great reviews. Why the bad reviews are the only ones being publicized is ridiculous! My son has been going to Huntington for many years, from grade school until present. He is now preparing for ACT/SAT. Melissa, the owner, is down to earth, honest, passionate, and by all means, she completely cares about the students in the program. Yes, it is expensive, but our experience is overwhelmingly positive. Our personal experiences: * My son always comes home feeling more confident and really does like attending. * He has never once complained about any of the teachers, although he has his favorites! * The staff is always available to answer any questions or address concerns. * Once in High School, I insisted that my son schedule his own study sessions, to teach him responsibility and autonomy. I imagine it was a bit of a headache for the staff at first, but they never once complained and supported my philosophy. * Over the years, my son's organization, attitude and study skills improved to the point that he now uses Huntington 'as needed' when he finds himself struggling in a class. He also attends weekly for college prep study. *The staff will even meet with your child's teachers to make sure that all those involved are working together for a common plan. There are many other positives, but I think my above testimony is enough to express my views. When a parent sees their child struggle, it can be painful. We worry about their self confidence, their feelings of self worth, their future etc. Huntington not only addresses the student's issues but the parent's concerns as well! Thank you, to all the wonderful staff who have been, and continue to be such positive influences on our son and subsequently our family.
