Parent Testimonials

— Tanya

My daughter has been really enjoying your Eco camp this week! I am so impressed by how much she’s learned and how much fun she’s having. Big Kudos to your team for creating such fun and informative camps!

—Sandy

My son really enjoyed the camp and he said Pear Tree has the best food, which is very rare for him to say. Usually he doesn’t like camp food and often ends up not eating much. But, he said he had 2 plates on most days [at Pear Tree], and would of gone for third if he was allowed ?. I just want to say thank you for putting so much effort into your camps and offered such a wonderful activities for the children.

— Eliza

“My son still treasures your assigned readings from last year. I can’t begin to express how much impact your sessions have had. I think he was little disappointed he couldn’t continue the sessions.”

— Bihter

I would like to thank you for everything you did on this summer camp for my daughter. She has made a very good progress, gained confidence in English and had a lot of fun. Especially, I want to share with you that when the school started here in Istanbul, she told me exactly ” Mom, you know what! I really miss Alexis, Paul, Emily, Josh and Pear tree.” Hope to see you again:)

— Wendy

“Thank you once again to the amazing camp leaders. We really like that the day is structured and he’s learning things (not just playing all day like other camps).”
