Disappointing. Better Options for Less $$ in Twin Cities Jul 26, 2008
|
reviewer: Mark Star from Twin Cities, MN
|
| This is the most expensive day camp our son has ever attended in 8 years, and so far, the low-light of his summer. Weekly rate is more than the internationallly reknown language overnight camp that he will be attending shortly.
It is not good value given other programs available in the Twin Cities, MN. Two different classes held at the same time sharing one classroom were distracting and noisy. Staff was friendly and enthusiastic, but short on experience as skilled educators of children.
Macalester College campus is beautiful. If you'd like your child to have exposure to such a campus, a better quality and less expensive program is the MN Institute for Talented Youth (MITY) which has summer classes at Macalester in June and July that are taught by highly experienced educators with years in their field of expertise. Less than half the price of iD Tech and a much more satisfying experience. Also, check out Science Museum of Minnesota classes for more experienced staff, better facilities and much better prices (about 1/3 the cost of iD Tech).
We enrolled our son as a special treat (outside of our normal budget), and it was a huge disappointment. |
