The Kid’s College

My 6 year old daughter is currently enrolled in a Hip Hop class; for the first class, the instructor was about 15 minutes late, and the class was relocated 3 times that afternoon. I was relieved I was there, since my daughter is so young. on a subsequent class, the instructor was very late (although I am not logging the exact ‘times’) The last time they met, the instructor was 45 minutes late. (see the big pattern here? And how can I teach the importance of being punctual?)
Obviously, a concern is not getting what we paid for… but the biggest concern, is the safety of these children who are unattended, when they are waiting for their instructor to arrive. There is NO SUPERVISION, during that time, and the campus is ‘open’ to anyone, since school has been dismissed for the day.

Kid’s College offers after-​school Arts and Music classes in North County and Poway Unified Elementary Schools. I exposed my kid to the last session’s music class, one hour, once a week, six week — «Music and Me» class.
It was a waste of time — I (or my kid) don’t think he learned anything. Though not very expensive ($ 60), it was still not worth it. A waste of time and is on par with one of those late night infomercials that rarely give your money’s worth. Better find a place dedicated to teaching music or just get private lessons.
The «Music and Me» description on the flyer distributed in schools said: «Find out what makes music as we explore the basic tools of melody, rhythm, harmony, tone, form and expression. Learn fun songs and make new friends as we discover the music in you! Designed for the classroom and the stage, each song describes a different element of music. Put them together with the easily-​learned script for an entertaining and educational showcase!». .. but which parent is watching!
