The Learning Experience

Recently, a friend of mine texted me and asked if my daughter had a good experience while she was attending the East Windsor Learning Experience on route 33 next to Golds Gym. I wanted to be fair and not too bias so, I went and read recent reviews about the center prior to giving my friend a call.
It was interesting to read all the reviews on the Learning Experience website, and to see that the individuals who wrote the reviews were mostly employees or former owner of the learning experience. Take Mrs. Barbara R. for example, she was the co-​owner and former director of the East Windsor Learning Experience facility. And Ms. Jasmine is currently employed by the Learning Experience. And now I am writing this review as a mother of a child who was a former student of the center.
From my past experience, the Learning Experience had very high rate of employment turn over. This was problematic for me, since children need see familiar faces for them to feel secure and less anxious. It seemed to me that their management could not and was not able to keep a steady and devoted staff. In addition many of staff were not certified educators nor well trained. I had had interviewed two of their former employees as potential baby sisters as I fingered out that they both live near by my neighborhood. During the interviews I asked them about how they came to work for East Windsor Learning Experience, both ladies provided very similar answers. They saw an ad, they made a call to the center, then scheduled an appointment to met with the owner. They brought their resumes and were able to obtain a job within the 20 – 30 minutes interview, there was not a lot of requirements other than the willingness to work.
As I have mentioned, my daughter attended the East Windsor Learning Experience before and it was for a duration of 5 months. It was the worse 5 months I could remember. My daughter’s teacher was Ms. Rashna, a superficial teacher who kept mentioning that she had a degree in child development and psychology from
India, yet she had no idea how to teach and was incapable of providing genuine care for the children in the class. I was not the only parent who had concerns, but to my surprise no one else bought up the issues to the Learning Experience’s owner. By second month, I had my daughter transferred to another classroom. She had Ms Yasmin has teacher and Ms Yasmin was sweet and caring, unfortunately she moved on to another job few weeks after my daughter transferred to her classroom. Ms. Yasmin mentioned to me on her last day that she needed a full time position with benefits and the Learning Experience could not provide her a full time schedule and full benefit package. That was unfortunate. She was a great care giver and teacher to my daughter.
So I continue to keep my daughter at the Learning Experience for couple more months and at fifth month I finally fingered out why my daughter did not want to leave the car in the morning to go into class. She was scared and she was constantly meeting different faces, there was not stability in the classroom environment. Plus she was not challenged enough.
My daughter is now 8 years old and as happy as she can be. But I would not recommend parents to send their children to the East Windsor Learning Experience. But if you planning to send your children to the
Learning Experience, please do some research, talk to parents who have children attending the school currently.
