What Parents Say About Us
Real stories from parents who trust and love our programs.
"Thank you for teaching my daughter the principles of money and finance. She is really enthusiastic about the topic and she loves your way of teaching. She keeps saying that if I taught it, it would end in being only a math lesson."
~ Fabio - father of one Money Factor Year 6 pupil Fulham

"Money Factor has been great! Sixty Year 6 pupils were lucky enough to have Cecilia every week and they loved it. The sessions encouraged the children to think differently and become more confident in their knowledge of economics. The best thing about Money Factor is Cecilia's energy and enthusiasm. Her passion and dedication were always evident. I highly recommend!"

“Cecilia was an absolute delight to have in the classroom. As educators, it is our job to ensure that children leave school with the skills needed to thrive. THIS COURSE DELIVERS JUST THAT. In an area of education that we do not teach but is crucial to living day-to-day, Cecilia delivered the program that totally engaged and could be accessed by pupils of all abilities. It was an absolute thrill to hear children discussing the difference between credit and debit and when it is appropriate to use them. The Barter Boogie will be echoed in the school corridors for months to come. What most impressed me was the knowledge the children were imparting to their parents who were learning from their children. When this happened, it really hit home just how important it is to teach children about the world of finance at such a young age.
Every child should have this experience.”

“Cecilia is a motivated, enthusiastic and inspiring educator. The way in which she approaches the subject of money and finance through audience participation, singing, role play. The children who attended the sessions thoroughly enjoyed them, with Cecilia even leading a money dance through the hall much to the enjoyment of spectators. Fabulous.”

"Thank you so much for teaching the children. All they talked about on the way home yesterday was how much fun they had and when could they have another class! Thank you for making the classes so lively and interesting. Normally my son is asking every 10 minutes "How much longer?" He didn’t do this in your classes – which is amazing and shows how engaged the children were. Well Done!

"This term has been wonderful. With Cecilia running the money workshops, she has taught a whole new concept of saving/spending money. The children absolutely love Cecilia’s sessions and really look forward to Mondays now. Cecilia brings warmth and enthusiasm within the session and engages all the children. Cecilia is a real attribute look forward to working with her in 2017. I’m excited."

I'm sure the kids loved the class, a very active dynamic course, and if they didn't love it, let's hope they took it all in! A very necessary part of their education! We will miss it, but hopefully you will return to do some more.

"The children absolutely loved having Cecilia come each week in order to teach them about the economy. Her energy and enthusiasm lit up the classroom each week. Each lesson was thoroughly planned out and the children truly thrived in having such hands on lessons. They would incorporate what they learned with Cecilia in other classes and lessons which demonstrated how much they learned with her. They have asked when she will be coming back as they miss her already."
