CEZ Success Skill Set Coaching
Our Enrichment and Coaching program is for 3 to 12 year old children. Our special and unique core curriculum prepares our students to excel in school and for life outside of school. Our C.E.Z. Success program infuse students with specific skill sets that they will use for a life time. Our exciting and enriching coaching themes include but are not limited to:
math enrichment
Our Math Enrichment program for 4 – 12 year olds implements an award-winning research-based curriculum and assessment software. Our program uses an individualized diagnostic test which is aligned with the State Standards and Core Strands. It analyzes each child’s area of mastery and advancement as well as areas in need of improvement to determine a learning schedule for each child. The diagnostic test is done through a computer analysis program which pinpoints the accurate academic level to maximize each child’s learning potential.
Students work from laptop learning stations on their own personalized animated and interactive profile tracks. Our Class Math Leaders work with each child which is made possible due to our small class size. Our Class Math Leaders teach Math Drills and test taking techniques to optimize each child’s overall success.

It provides children with valuable concepts, life skills, and career options in fun filled hands on environment. Science enrichment helps give children a greater appreciation for the world, strong problem-solving skills, and research know-how. Science promotes strong communication skills and teaches about conflict management and collaboration. Through our Jr. Scientist program children learn about coming up with hypotheses, collecting data, testing assumptions, looking for patterns, communicating their findings making presentations, and conducting further testing. These skills improve success in school and in the world after school.
After School Excellence Program
Our After School Excellence Program teaches children organization and time management skills that are necessary for lifelong success and productivity. Organization and time management are essential skills for school-age children who must meet increasing educational demands. A child with solid organization and time management skills can manage his/her daily responsibilities and has the ability to plan ahead. We will work with Parents to develop an individualized daily schedule. We review each child’s executive functioning skills in order to teach them how to organize themselves to complete homework assignments independently. Children will learn to use checklists, calendars and other useful tools to increase their organization levels.

Our Class Language Leaders work with each child which is made possible due to our small class size.

“The enthusiasm my daughter has about Math is attributed to her participation in the C.E.Z. Kids Math Club. ” ~Hilda
“ My son used to break out in rashes and suffer from anxiety right before the school state testing. After joining the C.E.Z. Kids Language Club he has done a 180 and is much more confident and relaxed thanks to the test taking techniques he learned here.” ~Barbara
“I enrolled my 4 year old in the C.E.Z. Kids Success Club because I thought it was interesting and something unique. I never expected my 4 year old to have gained as much depth of understanding and skills as she has attained through this program. She went from being a shy kid to a confident kid with the ability to make a clear presentation on the stage in front of her peers. It is just amazing!” ~Daniel
