Why SpiderSmart
at Sugar Land
Excellent instruction starts with excellent instructors.
We only hire experienced, skilled, and passionate teachers. Each of them undergoes a rigorous training process that includes observing current SpiderSmart teachers and practicing how to use our unique curriculum. All of our instructors are certified, and some are college professors, have doctorate degrees, or have written books themselves.
Small classes.
Big improvement.
One of the things parents love about our programs is the small class sizes. Fewer students allow teachers to spend more time with your child and give more personalized instruction. Even in the group setting, our small classes make it easier for our teachers to track your child's progress, identify challenges, and dynamically adapt the learning material.
