Parent Testimonials
'Ms. Bannister is a passionate and caring teacher. My daughter thrived in her class; she was motivated and challenged with the learning activities offered. We saw significant and important improvements in her confidence and skills in the areas of Mathematics, English and Science. Ms. Bannister provided a safe learning environment for her students, constantly giving them support and encouragement, and creating a space where my daughter could realize the joy of learning.'
Mrs Heaton
'My older daughter can be self-motivated so I appreciate Ms. Bannister’s ability to develop the students’ work habits to prepare them for higher grades and develop independence. It is always a relief when our children enjoy and desire to go to school.'
