My son has Asperger's Syndrome, a milder form of autism. He is wicked smart, but has some problems with social situations. He will wander off, be unable to focus. He often avoids eye contact, and speaks to someone while facing away from them. He will squeak or meow or point instead of using words. In Master Chris's class, he has improved so much! He will look directly at him when told to, and speak to him in a clear voice. He will ask questions on his own. He is learning the material fairly well, and has his first promotion exam next week. And my son--though he doesn't admit it verbally--CARES about Master Chris, and Chris cares about him. I learned that there are 3 other kids in the class "on the spectrum" (autism spectrum). Frankly, I have NO idea who they are! I think that says a lot about Master Chris's ability to direct kids who have trouble with direction, and to help them grow and learn according to their own ability at their own pace. This is a great place for kids.

We checked out a few places in the area and choose Martingilio for his energy, dedication to the craft, understanding of how kids learn and easy payment plan. He knows how to keep the kids engaged and excited about learning the different disciplines. Our son loves it! Highly recommended.
