School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>5 6/30/2018My daughter transferred a few months ago to this school. She is ADHD and I immediately noticed her behavior improved. She still have days in which I get complains of her over talking but quite excited that the teacher knows how to work with her. Her reading has gone from almost non existent to reading 1 and 2 books in a row and wants to keep on. This truly makes my heart happy.
