Words from my fabulous students!
We feel so blessed to have found Mrs., G and her wonderful Building Brilliant Minds program. My daughter completed the IEW writing program and the Intro to Architecture course.
It has been a joy to see my daughter gain not only confidence in her writing, but she has blossomed under the compassion, patience and guidance that Mrs., G. skillfully displayed. Not only did Mrs. G communicate well with my daughter, she was my ally in creating a strong foundation of writing skills and only wanted to best support all aspects of the individuality of her student. She built on my daughter’s strengths and worked on her challenges in a positive way. I love how she built a strong bond with my daughter that I can only hope will last a lifetime. These are the influential relationships that you hope for your kids, as they find their wings. The champions. Who help them reach for the stars.
The Intro to Architecture was quite a challenge in learning new skills and in time management, but was peppered with so much fun, that it seemed like an art class. I love how there was research and writing involved. So many skills were built, so many tools added to the toolbox. Of course, building the model was the highlight. This fun and learning won’t stop as we dive in to the advanced architecture zoo design course. Very excited!
We love you, Amy and are so glad you are part of our lives.

Hi, Mrs G. I have completed all of my service hours for the two honor societies. I actually ended up doing 30 hours. Some of that was helping do craft projects with preschoolers (3.5 hours). The other 27 hours were in creating art and selling it to benefit a family who is adopting an older child from China. I ended up making $155 and I just sent that to them. I have included the drawings I sold just so you could see them. Thank you for the opportunity to be part of these honor societies. It felt really good to be able to help people with my gifts. Sometime over the summer I am thinking about signing up for one of your Advanced Architecture classes. I am leaning towards City Planning.
Thank you so much!

"Hello Mrs. G!
I would like to say thank you. This has been a wonderful experience! I'm going to wait a semester or two before taking on the advanced course. Thanks for the suggestions, I will definitely look into them! :) I do have one question, how do I get into the National Art Honors Society?"... student review

Hi Mrs. G,
I am so lucky to have found your website and your courses! They have been so informative and beyond expectations for any course I've come across. Thank you so much for all your time and instructions these past few months. I have learned a lot from you, and have also had great fun along the way!

Hi Mrs. G,
Thank you so much for teaching the course. I really learned a lot and the course was a great experience overall. It also really helped me learn the basics of architecture, and prepare me for a larger project I am doing for high school. (student review)

Dance Course Testimonials
"I would highly recommend this dance class. It has been wonderful for my daughter to learn about the history of dance as well as different dance types. It has been stretching for her as she breaks out of her "hip-hop" mold and realizes that she can do other dances as well. She enjoys watching the other students' dances online and learning from them as well. Thank you, Mrs. G!! " - From a Dance Mom
So far my son has had a lot of fun with the class. I think he is getting a lot out of the choreography projects.
This class has been wonderful so far for encouraging him to write in an area that is of interest to him. I’m so glad we found it when we did and he had the opportunity to be in it. - From a Dance Mom
