Well my daughters teacher Mr Wong is awesome, he really is kind, intelligent. He's also a christian pastor going to seminary school. I feel his Christian background guides his teaching and his loving nature towards mankind and God gave him that extra quality needed to have patience and proper structure to guide our children with the skills needed for them to excel in today's society. My daughter has truly benefited from his teachings using the schools curriculum. Reading. Writing, Arithmetic in my days has changed considerably since the 60s. Pearl Preparatory is vastly beyond your public schools
