I love the programme. I was not aware of how to introduce a concept … . If I could reverse my years in teaching, I bet I would have produced mathematicians, scientists and doctors.

Metro Central Teacher Comment (July, 2013)

What stood out for me - was not teaching the content, but how to teach the concept and so much vocabulary is elicited …

If you understand the basic concepts you will have a better understanding of more complex concepts.

Metro Central, October 2013

I feel very strongly that Basic Concepts should be introduced to all learners- this will give me the time to develop their conceptual language and increase their vocabulary and verbal fluency.

I really cannot wait to start- I want all my children to be Grade 1 ready at the end of this year.
