Thinking productively as a two year old is not the main goal of either program... both programs are meant to establish the foundations for later success in school and in life - as early as age 2. "Independent testing by the National Institute on Out-of-School Time (NIOST) demonstrates that a significant number of three to six year old children enrolled in FasTracKids® improved their vocabulary and social skills at a rate 100% to 150% times faster than their peers not enrolled in the program. All children in the study improved. Children who were kindergarten-aged advanced as much as one grade level and some of those students improved up to two grade levels." -fastrackids.com As the director of another FasTracKids, I can vouch for both FasTracKids and E.nopi and the results they deliver.

I wish Winick the best of luck, but frankly I could not imagine sending my 2 year old to a school to "think productively." What exactly does “twice as effective as conventional schooling” mean?

After reading reviews it is my understanding that the FasTracKids/Enopi programs have proven to be nearly twice as effective as conventional schooling alone! I cannot wait to see the center in person on Saturday! These programs are outstanding!

It was so enriching and completely different from their everyday schooling. I know Fastrackids in Tribeca will be a huge success. My neices attended the Fastrackids in Westchester and loved it.
