HEROES Academy: School for the Gifted

Miss Danielle and Miss Rita have been teaching our eldest child for the last 3 years and our other child this year. I have seen phenomenal growth in both kids due to the excellence of this G&T program created by them. This program is unmatched as it is a fast paced curriculum; however you only advance when you meet the criteria to advance to the next level. Both kids started in 2nd grade and the core foundation taught especially in the English language art(ERA) is instrumental to understand and write in all styles of writing. We are so happy with Heroes Academy that we drive 1 hour each way to give our children the best possible education here in NJ.

We are thankful to have found Heroes Academy for Camille’s academic growth. Ms Danielle and Ms. Voit methods are engaging, challenging and creative. The challenge each activity provides help in her emotional growth too. Camille always looks forward to Ms. Voit’s engaging math puzzle adventures and Ms. Danielle’s word puzzles.

Heroes Academy is a fantastic experience for my daughter. When they say accelerated, you better believe it. She is 5th grade and she is learning 7th grade math. Rita can work with your child and cover two grades in one year. She has become more confident and more self reliant due to skills practiced at the academy. Sure, there is a lot of homework, but it's worth it, considering that you can be sure that your child is basically guaranteed to be on the top of her class, since she has already put in a lot of work at a higher level. My daughter performs better than even most of GT kids in her school. Although I have enough expertise to teach her all the levels of math myself at home, it isn't as exciting for her as going to class where Rita makes it fun and competitive. This isn't your typical tutoring service. This is for kids who want to learn at a quicker pace, and think on a deeper level, and for parents who want their kids to be truly proficient and advanced.

My kid initially wanted to go to the HEROES Academy because his cousin, in a higher grade, had been going there for a while and that I’m sure must have influenced. His cousin was selected in his school’s Talented and Gifted program so I knew it was a positive influence!

The HEROES Academy was a bit far from our home, however, having tried a few other and well-known learning centers before--where making my kid want to go there was a constant struggle--we gave it a try anyway. At the HEROES, the teacher challenges his abilities to the next level and the progression only happens if the concepts are fundamentally clear and demonstrated in the coursework. To my surprise, we no longer have to struggle and my kid looks forward to going there every week, in spite of the homework that he has to do in addition to the school homework. The best thing is that my kid’s perception of Math has changed from “I don’t like Math” to “Math is my favorite subject.” If you think your child is gifted or talented, give HEROES Academy a try and surround your child with other gifted or talented kids to excel and get his or her best potential out.

HEROES provides the environment you are looking for your kids . It provides depth in a subject which is lacking in our schools and other outside enrichment institutes. Initially they come across very rigid , if you have the patience you will understand & appreciate the rigidness . They know what they are doing & customize it to your child needs. Kids enjoy learning and crave for more as a challenge. It’s not just language arts & math your child will be learning at HEROES but they will get holistic approach towards learning.
