Hey TLE, I would like to say thank you so much. We were living in Clearwater and We moved to Wesley Chapel once month ago. When Sara and I visited TLE, Sara was in love with the school and She desired to study there. But in that time there isn’t available space. Our angel Nadine, with too much patience with us, got a vacancy to Sara. After I finished that call, I cried and Thanked God for that opportunity. God bless you so much guys. Sara’s teachers I am so glad Sara stays with you! Thank you

"TLE Staff, Myself, my husband, and Jaxon want to thank you all for the many beautiful years. Jaxon grew up before your eyes and we can see just how much of an impact each one of you have made on his life. We could not have asked for a more beautiful, encouraging, and nurturing environment for our son. Every day for 5 years he came home with a smile on his face, joy in his heart, and laughter in his belly. I love that every teacher he has had is his "favorite". I thank you for giving him a safe space to be himself and showing him understanding, kindness, and love. We thank you for what you continue to do in this field. Our gratitude will forever run deep. Thank You! Kaitlin, Michael, and Jaxon Marquez."

TLE is the best place for any child to start early learning. The staffs are amazing. Our daughter fell in love with TLE since the first day and everyday we can see how much she is learning and how fast she grows. Now that our son goes here too it's the best decision we've made. It's only been couple of months and already he has learned so much. We are so happy that our children go to TLE. Thank you to TLE's wonderful teachers.
