It looks excellent! I’m really pleased to see that there IS an alternative to the typical education system, a system which all too often isn’t educating. In pedagogic terms you are lowering the affective filter (lowering stress), something which the system cannot do. Good luck with your work !

Thanks Kerry! As both a parent and a staff member/founder at Sego Lily, I can attest to the lowered stress level in our environment. However, the students are also very motivated to push themselves to go beyond their own limitations and abilities. It is a beautiful thing to watch and be a part of!
