Ms Kathleen was amazing with my son - patient and encouraging and didn’t mind when he went off task but also did a great job bringing him back to task. Explained things clearly and age appropriately. Awesome.

All the kids were actively participating and sharing. All were fully engaged.

I am not sure it can be improved on other than perhaps having an extra assistant to help? But overall, the teacher was able to focus and refocus kids on their task at all time. Very impressed.
