GBCritical Thinking Child Boot Camp I signed up my 4th grade daughter for Lemi's boot camp because her sister had benefitted from the class years ago. She was excited to attend and focused on doing her "homework" which alone would make it a success in my book. Working with her on the homework I could see that Lemi was teaching her skills that would be very helpful for upcoming CPS tests.

GBThe best enrichment program for my child Ms. Lemi is a great teacher and person. She makes kids feel comfortable around her. My opinionated child always wants to attend her classes . She makes her boot camp sessions challenging and fun. She encourages children to learn new concepts and is very patient in teaching them. After my son masters a concept she teaches him, he feels very proud of his achievement. Moreover Ms. Lemi puts a lot of time in working with parents. She shares a lot of valuable resources and explains how to teach kids unfamiliar concepts. I highly recommend "critical thinking child" to other parents who either want to prepare children for the admission exams or looking for enrichment opportunities for them.

GBCritical Thinking Skills are life skills I put my son here because critical thinking to me is an important life skill. Unfortunately, not all schools focus on critical thinking skills. I also pay attention to my son's brain development. I read neuroscience books in my free time to help understand myself and my children. Decision making involves different areas of the brain. I choose enrichment programs for my son that I feel will develop these parts of the brain that will influence him to make important decisions as an adult. I am happy to be in Chicago because of this organization. I have recommended the online version to my friends in other states. The Critical Thinking Child is truly a Chicago gem so I tell everyone about it.

GBThe Critical Thinking Child is Incredible! Lemi and everyone at Critical Thinking Child have been great! Not only did our child end up getting into the school we were hoping for, she now has some incredible critical thinking skills she can use throughout her academic career and life in general. We're very grateful for all of the help, insight, guidance, and care we received from this phenomenal team.

GBExcellent coaching done in an engaging way Our daughter attended the summer boot camp for critical thinking. It was a great experience for our daughter, who looked forward to going to the class each week. For us, the most important factor was for her to enjoy the learning process and that is exactly what Lemi provided her with. Lemi brings in years of research on child development and is able to apply that in the classroom. Lemi has a unique way to engaging the kids along with driving discipline and focus. Furthermore, we received excellent advise from Lemi on multiple topics - ranging from use of technology to encouraging reading. I recommend the boot camp and other programs that Lemi leads to all parents.
