Group Classes

Our group classes are designed to review and supplement the curriculum taught in 4th to 6th grade

- Kids may be finding it hard to learn information when not in class. We hope that our group classes can reinforce some concepts so that they fully understand the material and perhaps introduce more advanced concepts as well.
