Kyle is a young and energetic UCSD grad (woo hoo go Tritons!) who is passionate about music. He makes learning piano fun and exciting for kids. Kyle was very patient and helpful with our son. He took the time to understand our son's learning ability to tailor his first lesson accordingly. He created such a positive and supportive learning environment where my son felt comfortable. He provided clear and concise instructions, so our son was able to follow along. I value Kyle's integrity because he was honest in advising that our son was a bit too young to comprehend piano instructions and might not fully benefit from taking lessons at this time. We appreciated Kyle's honesty and agreed with his professional opinion. We will revisit having him teach our son next year. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a great piano teacher. Kyle is a talented musician, a patient and helpful teacher, and he makes learning piano fun and exciting for everyone!

If you want your child to learn and enjoy playing piano, I highly recommend Kyle.

If you are curious at all about Toastmasters, or you know that you want or need help with public speaking, or that you need help overcoming the fear of public speaking, then do yourself a favor and try it out at least once. What do you have to lose by trying it for 1 hour? Absolutely nothing and you will be doing yourself a favor, and at the very least you will meet some wonderful new people. Meetings are held Thursdays at noon in the new Vistage office in the UTC mall area across from the mall on Eastgate. There is plenty of parking in front of Vistage. Just make sure to sign in at the front desk and find out which meeting room is the current room for that meeting because it is not always in the same room. I was drawn in by an invite from Brian to attend the pizza party to learn more about Toastmasters and it was much more than good pizza. I have since attended only 4 or 5 meetings, but I enjoyed every minute of it. It is a very non-threatening environment and you can choose to jump right in and participate 100% or you can sit back and observe and not speak at all. Whatever your personal comfort level is. The first time I just watched. There are a wide range of people in the group from all backgrounds, educations, jobs, and speaking expertise levels. Everyone is invited to join and you will feel welcomed and at ease right away. Brian, Jaimee, Brandon, Dawn and all the others do a fantastic job and will help you every step of the way. The meetings are run very precisely like a fine tuned machine. After the meeting sign in period, there is a brief introduction, the meeting agenda is discussed, and responsibilities are handed out. There are a range of responsibilities like a person who keeps track of the time so people don't go over their allotted time limit, there is an "um" counter, etc. There is a meeting agenda and there are usually people who are scheduled to give a timed planned speech but time permitting there are other little fun speaking exercise games. Sometimes there are guest speakers from other clubs, etc. I want to reiterate that you can just sit and observe the meeting until you are comfortable with immersing yourself fully in the Toastmasters experience. You don't have to talk if you don't want to. It may be enough for you at first to just observe, and there are no judgments or expectations, but if you do choose to participate it will be a great learning experience. If you do work up to being 1 of the planned speech givers, you will quickly get dynamic and meaningful feedback in a helpful way which should help you hone your public speaking skills.

I've greatly benefited from my experience in UTC Toastmasters. It's a motivating and fun…read moreenvironment that fosters learning and growth. After I give a speech I know I'm going to be told what I did well and how I can grow and I greatly appreciated the high quality of feedback. Hearing that immediate feedback helps me grow and better prepare for my next speech. I particularly appreciate the diversity of styles and experiences people bring. I find myself adopting new techniques that I don't think I would have learned had I not been a member of UTC Toastmasters. It's not simply getting better at speaking, it's learning a particular set of skills: vocal variety, pausing, projecting and really connecting with your audience. That's the type of experience you can have at a great club like UTC Toastmasters.

Fleur De Lis School

Fleur de Lis School provided our son and our family the most incredible experience we could have…read moreever asked for. In our 2 years there, we watched our son grow immensely in his confidence, relationships, and overall love of learning. He was sad to leave school every day and excited to wake up and start the day with his amazing friends and teachers. The approach and philosophy that Fleur de Lis takes truly allows each child to blossom in their own unique and beautiful way and we not only got to experience this with our son, but saw it with his classmates as well. We saw our son make presentations to his class about a science or art project he did with us at home or proudly present his show and tell Spider-man toy to his classmates - we are so grateful to the entire Fleur de Lis community for encouraging this level of self-esteem and individuality. The staff at Fleur de Lis is truly one of a kind - the professional, yet individualized attention of Tina Smith and April Kozelh as directors is amazing. They know your child personally and do everything in their power to make your child's experience at Fleur de Lis enriching and creative. Our son still talks about Ms. Tina coming into their classroom and reading them special books (his favorite was about an owl in NYC) and Tina consistently shared specific memories of our son's social and emotional growth during his time there. The teachers we had at Fleur de Lis (Ms. Sandy, Ms. Chelsea, Ms. Amber, Ms. Kiara and Ms. Diana for Spanish) were incredible in every way - we appreciated the attention to the holistic needs of each child - the cognitive, physical, and emotional were all given attention and we saw our son blossom in each area. The day our son "graduated" Fleur de Lis School was a bittersweet one - we were thrilled to know he was ready for kindergarten, but also so sad to say goodbye to the daily moments of this special community. Our son couldn't stop hugging his amazing teacher Ms. Sandy at the singing show - clearly showing the same emotions we felt as parents.

I remember my son, Julian, sobbing when I left him on his first day as a two year old, and my heart was breaking. In less than a week, he was all smiles at drop off, excited to see his teachers and friends. Since then, he's thrived at this school, both emotionally and educationally. Now, two years later, he's heading to Francis Parker, and looking back on his time at FDL, I can't express how grateful I am to the amazing team there. There are a few specifics that make FDL special: The community -- everyone at FDL knows Julian's name, even teachers who aren't assigned to his class. Pre-Covid, when I would pick him up from his classroom, his daily departure was like a little parade, with waves and goodbyes to friends, teachers, directors, everyone. You really feel like part of a family here. Kira, Bev, April, Julie, Julia, Diana, Iris, Nina, Autumn, and many others...each has been a unique and positive impact on Julian and our family over the past two years. The safety -- speaking of Covid, I don't think I appreciated how nice it is to have total confidence in the efforts of the FDL team to keep my child safe at all costs until this pandemic. When they reopened under new safety guidelines, I never once worried they would slack or not keep the sanitation and safety bar high. In fact, Julian now inspects my hand washing and admonishes me if I have not made enough soap bubbles or washed long enough . They always ran a tight ship, but it's exceptional now. The positive reinforcement of high expectations -- on my visit prior to enrolling at FDL, I saw all the kids eating lunch as they chattered politely and consistently used manners. On the playground, no one pushed. They all took turns. What's more, they were still incredibly joyous little kids, giggling and delighting in silly play. I was in awe. And yet, now Julian models those same behaviors. FDL teachers are kind and warm, but firm. They set a high bar, and the kids rise to meet it. At the same time, there is tremendous fun had on the daily at this school. Julian greets me at pick up with a big smile and a hug, his cheeks flushed from play and sand in his shoes. He excitedly shows me his projects and tells me funny stories and things he learned from the day. FDL is exceptional. If you have the chance to send your child there, take it. You would be hard pressed to find a more loving and capable setting. We will miss it terribly!

Several daycares/preschools in the region claim to be Spanish immersion but aren't actually (e.g., they speak English to the kiddos). At Lulus, I feel like we get a truly authentic Spanish immersion program for our son, knowing instruction is exclusively in Spanish. And it shows. My son 100% understands Spanish when it is spoken to him and he mixes Spanish and English in his vocabulary regularly. I credit Lulus for a large part of that bilingual ability and look forward to seeing his fluency improve in the years to come. Highly recommend Lulus!!
