Director of Upbeat NYC
"We know this community of learners to be incredibly self-motivated, eager to learn, engaged and thoughtful, with parents who are supportive and actively involved in their children’s development​."
CEO of NYC Basketball Club
"The director provides confidence, compassion, and sense of purpose for TLC children, just as she has done and continues to do for the women in our Bronx community through her self-defense instruction."
NYPL Children's Librarian
"TLC students are friendly, well-behaved, and always respectful at our library. The director is charming, engaging, and wants her students to excel educationally. Additionally, she volunteers her spare time to empower women. I will continue recommending families to TLC!
English Professor at a SUNY State University
"After perusing the TLC Writing and Grammar curriculum for middle schoolers, I told Nichole that I wish all of my college students could receive that caliber of education before getting to my class. It would make my job easier!
Current Parent
"As a homeschooling family in NYC, the TLC community has been such a gift. It is a place where my children are safe, encouraged, and loved, but they are also academically challenged, held to a higher standard, and called into a pursuit of excellence. TLC Director, Ms. Nichole, has created and nurtured a fun and educational environment in which students are inspired to think critically and engage the world, from pre-school through to high school graduation."
Recent TLC Graduate
"It has been an absolute joy to be a part of an amazing, wholesome, godly group atmosphere for most of my academic career. TLC provides a truly loving environment, a sense of belonging, and a familial support system. TLC and its gifted leaders prepared me for dual enrollment classes and now successful college admission. Beyond academic excellence, TLC has helped shape my character and prepared me to be a mature, happy, kind, hard-working, and productive adult in this world. I am forever grateful."
Current Student
"I have been a TLC student for nine years. TLC has not only helped me in my education but has also contributed greatly to my emotional and spiritual well-being. I am excited to continue with TLC all the way to graduation, as I have seen how much it has prepared other TLC graduates for college. I always look forward to TLC every week, and I can't wait to see all of the new faces that will continue to come in the future."
Former Parent
"TLC has done so much for all of our children. I will always be grateful for the foundational years I had at home with my kids and for the years of homeschooling with TLC."
Current Parent
"TLC has been a blessing to our family as we entered homeschooling in 2019 and today as we continue. It has provided us structure and community, as well as guiding my children to think critically and grow academically."
