		<description><![CDATA[Dear Joy,

The videos and tapes that I watched and listened to are just amazing. I couldn&#039;t take off my headset afraid I might miss something.  I am just completing the proposal to establish a preschool in my hometown that&#039;s why I need this kind of inputs. I want to share with you that this preschool is not really a money-making one. It is my advocacy. I am NOT financially capable of putting this preschool named ACTIVE MINDS DEVELOPMENTAL LEARNING CENTER but I believe in my heart that there are friends and people around who are more than willing to help me make this dream a reality.

The Center (as I call it) hopefully will have its first class on APRIL 2012 with only 20 3-5 year-old children of low and average income families. I dream of providing top quality education to my enrollees and maintain the ideal teacher-student ratio of 1:5. I will be charging socialized rates affordable to low income parents. There will be  2 classes in the morning ( 5 toddlers -9:00-11:00 and 5 preschoolers - 8:30 -11:30) and another 2 classes in the afternoon with the same number of students per class.

I am really very thankful for all the tips and insights that I heard from you. I will really apply some of these in my own preschool once it opens next year. Thanks again and more power to you.

Truly,

Shirley]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Joy,

Thanks for your motivating mail and messages.

I started this year a day care centre for children aged 6 months to three years. I have only 2 children I got a bit discouraged but have not given up.

Goals: Build my own structure so that I donot have to be stressed by the house rent charges. Also establish a teacher training programe to support the day care.

Thanks for sharing

		<description><![CDATA[Joy!

Thanks for the wonderful message today.  I just finished my Meet n Greets and will be starting classes next week.  This has been such a blessing in my life and I couldn&#039;t be happier teaching!

I&#039;ve told you before, but will again...  I started last year with 5 kids and by January I had so many people wanting to enroll that I had to open a second class and hire another teacher!  In fact, I have spent the last few months turning people away because there is no way I could possibly add anymore!

This year I have 2 classes, and 18 kids enrolled!!

Goals: Give these kids the best year at school I can possibly give them!  And have fun doing it!

Be a good employer and make my assistant feel like she is appreciated.

Thanks for changing my life!!

With Much Appreciation,
Kristen]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For I am excited about what you have to offer, Joy.  
I am a Day Care Director and Infant teacher in a center based program. 
My goals for this year include new enrollments as well as making the Best Program for the children in our care.  Developing a relationship of trust and respect with the children and parents in the program and giving the best to them so that they are happy and ready for school when they leave the program to enter elementary school.  This also means developing a respectful and trusting relationship with my staff and helping them to own my goals as theirs for their own classrooms, as we come to our first anniversery.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Joy,

You&#039;ve inspired and without knowing, supported me in starting a montessori preschool from home! I am a qualified montessorian, and didn&#039;t know what should I do with trying to get an income while having the responsibility to take care of my children, who&#039;re 6 and 3 this year. 
I decided to take a step forward and being determined to start a preschool from home after walking through your web seminars, thinking &quot;Let&#039;s do this, not just think about it!&quot;

I still need a lot of response and advertisement with getting children to join my preschool, but I did take off in the summer with 2 children, who love my montessori and coming to school! So did their parents!

My goal this year is to achieve more recognition and do my best as a Montessori preschool directress, giving those who join the Snowflakes Montessori Preschool family the best learning experience ever and everyday be happy to come to school! I want to create the love of learning within the child .

Thank you so much and God bless U]]></description>
