“Golden Scholars 101 is wonderful, and I highly recommend it. My daughter has attended parts 1-3 of the Reading Club and is eagerly anticipating part 4. Many thanks to Golden Scholars 101’s Ms. A for offering these sessions, and inspiring my daughter and many children to read African literature and to take pride in themselves and their culture.”

“I am so very thankful for the Golden Scholar program. We first became aware of the program during the chaotic times of covid. I found the program a more rewarding experience than the curriculum that was being provided to my daughter by the public educational System. My daughter was extremely engaged and truly enjoyed the delivery of the teacher, Ms. A. In addition to see characters of the books that looked like her and family members was also a benefit for my daughter.

Thank you Ms. A for providing such a culturally aware, engaging educational experience!”

“This (The Royal Readers Reading Club) has been a great series for my daughter. She really enjoys seeing the other children that take part as she isn’t currently interacting with other children in daycare”

“We have enjoyed Ms. Alexander’s expertise and enthusiasm in selecting, reading, teaching critical literacy skills that is engaging. My son has gain confidence in responding and asking questions as well as being exposed to rich culturally relevant and responsive books.”

“Ms. Alexander is an engaging educator, who encourages students to work to their full potential while becoming independent learners. She motivates students to take ownership of their learning goals and strive to become their best selves. Her lessons are fun and interactive and exemplify her passion for education. She has raised awareness within the school community about inclusivity and respect through school-wide presentations and concerts, but also embeds those same ideologies of inclusivity and respect in the classroom environment. Her students are all very fortunate to have her as their teacher. ”

“Miss A and the Golden Scholars Reading Club provide meaningful and engaging content for our young readers. Our children look forward to each session eagerly. The books selected for each session are timely and resonate with our kids. They like being able to interact with other children and Miss A during discussions. Insightful, empowering, educational and inspiring sessions!”

“Khandi made every class unique and interactive. She was always interested in knowing about our individual needs and goals and she helped us stay motivated along the way. She challenged us to think outside the box and encouraged us throughout the classes with her consistent positive energy. I am so glad I had the opportunity to have Khandi as an instructor.”

“(My son) enjoys The Royal Readers Club, he really enjoys the books that are read, and though sometimes he may not answer questions being read to enables him to think about the topic at hand. (My son) is always excited for royal readers and remembers on his own to tune in.”

“Khandi is an experienced teacher who goes above and beyond to understand her students and connect with them on a personal level in order to help them succeed. When I was in her class, she helped me to explore new ideas and boost my confidence. She was always there to lend a helping hand!”
