LITTLE STARS OF THE FUTURE - TESTIMONIALS

TESTIMONALS

Professional Testimonial: I first met Irma Arguelles Almaguer just under seven years ago when she became employed as a teacher at my childcare center. Her prior resume was impressive. Among other degrees and certifications, it included a masters degree in education and also several years of formal teaching experience. These details notwithstanding, Irma’s most valuable asset quickly revealed itself: her innate compassion for children. Irma is a natural. She exudes kindness. She truly adores and respects every child under her care. Consistently at our school she remained a favorite with children, parents and coworkers. Additionally, Irma is among the hardest working teachers I have employed. Her unwavering positive attitude serves her well under pressure. Meticulous with her duties, she not uncommonly reached above and beyond expectations Over time her exemplary demonstration of responsibility and trustworthiness secured her a managerial position at my center. It was an absolute pleasure working alongside Irma. I enthusiastically recommend her childcare services.

I have known Irma now for almost 7 years! When she began working with me, she barely spoke english. But her love for children was apparent from day 1! I have never seen anyone so patient and loving with every single child. She treats each one of them as her own ‘babies”. The children absolutely adore her from the minute they arrive because her love for them is felt immediately. Sending your baby to a stranger is so hard, but I promise you will never regret handing them over to Irma! As a co worker, she was always thoughtful, helpful, loyal, and dependable! I also watched her study and become a US citizen!

Irma was my oldest child’s first teacher. Lots of parents know that it can be hard to send your child to school for the first time. Irma’s energy and soft smile made the transition easy. I knew my kid was in good hands. The bond Irma develops with her students are unmatched. I was comfortable sending my kids to her because I know she would take care of my child as if she were her own. Years later when I had my twins, Stars of the Future was the obvious choice! -

I first met Irma Arguelles Almaguer two years ago when I became employed as a teacher at Brilliant Minds Montessori. Getting to work with Irma and getting to learn from her has been a great privilege and wonderful experience that l'll continue to cherish through out my time working with children. Irma is the type of teacher who empowers you to reach further, she knows how to build genuine rapport with each student using sincerity, empathy, and playfulness. Her first priority is always the well being of her students, there is no doubt that any child or person who enters Irma's presence is seen and heard. If you are seeking for someone who is dedicated, attentive, and caring to teach and nurture your little ones, I highly recommend Little Stars Of The Future.
