Mr. Corey is always friendly with kids.
Dawn B. says:
The instructor, Corey, was AMAZING! He is very patient, creative, upbeat, and FLEXIBLE! Definitely a \"Lego Master\" with an incredible amount of patience! Wonderful class overall!
Krishnaswamy G. says:
What I love about this Lego class is.. we are taught to make different lego pieces and also how to substitute with other available pieces and create the masterpiece of lego art. We also were taught advanced lego art with the different available pieces.
Anjanette says:
It was extremely easy to register for the class and my child had lots of fun and loved Corey. He is engaging with all the students and makes them all feel like a part of the class.
Manoj says:
My son enjoyed the class a lot. LEGO Master Corey was very friendly.Testing Mom is the best choice for kids.
Lilia says:
Lego Master Corey explains how to build their project in a way my 7-year-old is able to understand. He tries to answer every question a child asks and gives them options of how to build something if they don\'t have the pieces he is using. His video on what Lego boxes to purchase so one isn\'t looking for various pieces was very helpful as well as how to organize your Legos. He also takes time at the end of his program to allow the kids to share other projects that they have been working on.
Swati says:
My child had a lot of fun, and it helps kids learn new things.
Frances says:
This class was very engaging and extremely fun! Corey is highly skilled at engaging with children through what can be a very difficult format, especially with a large group of students. He maintained control of the class while keeping it light and fun. He really made an effort to meaningfully engage with each child and recognize their efforts. He makes it look easy, but we know it is not! Thank you TestingMom for making available world-class instructors like Corey! And a very big \"Thank You!\" to Corey for encouraging and opening up a new world for our child!
Mariah says:
Corey used a subject that is interesting & draws the kids in - and gets their imaginations going.
Our girls adore Lego Master Corey. He spends so much time & attention on details of his class. They have been building non-stop ever since it ended - so if the goal is to ignite these kids’ creativity & imagination, Corey certainly does it. Even my husband commented that he wants to take Corey’s classes. Five stars!
Vidya says:
My child says Corey has the \"Best\" classes! And waits for the next sessions.

Stephani says:
My child says the class is so fun and likes building with other kids. Lego Master Cory is so nice. It\'s hard to find fun classes that are also super educational. Somehow, Testing Mom has managed to succeed in providing the best of both.
Stephani says:
Fun to build legos with \"new friend\". Love that there is a theme, but still room to be creative. Because each kid has different lego pieces, thinking outside the box is necessary - this is great practice for life. LEGO Master Corey is the best, so patient and creative. Even in a large class, he connects with everyone.
Dena says:
My two boys love the LEGO classes! The classes are inspiring, and super fun! After each class, they would build some other things related to the topic. Highly recommended! Master Corey is patient and friendly. His instructions are clear and easy to follow.
Henderson says:
My kids loved this class, and think Corey is cool, nice, and fun.
Shawna says:
This class was Fun, low-pressure, engaging, sparked ideas and creativity.
Taneeta says:
It’s fun and educational. My son wants to be an architect so building Legos is definitely a great way to express his creativity. I attended the classes with him and the instructor is great with the children. He is very personable and calls each child by their name. He makes time for each child to ask questions or share their work. My son says his classes are never boring.
Flora says:
Corey is AMAZING — one of my child’s favorites! He is so skillful in working with a range of ages in a virtual format, imparting information and teaching skills very effectively. Very patient and encouraging, always equitable in ensuring students have a chance to speak and share. My child always takes away new skills and perspectives, and class with Corey always sparks his imagination — we see our child using what he learned with Corey in the days, weeks, and months that follow. Truly impressive.
Cassie H. says:
My son really enjoyed the 2-session Lego class with Corey last weekend. After that, he told me he wanted to do ALL the Lego classes available! We can\'t quite jump on that bandwagon, but I did sign him up for another class in a couple of weeks. Thanks so much for providing creative and educational opportunities for kids!
Samira says:
Great class by Corey Samuels on Lego Epic Animals and Their Habitats. Corey was patient with all different levels of kids and at the same time kept the class moving and interesting for all kids. He prepared, presented very well, and genuinely loves to teach kids. A+!
Mariah says:
My 8-year-old & 7-year-old girls, who were both behind in school just 4 short months ago, just built life-size-ish Hogwarts with Legos. The castle, which came in a kit labeled 16 years old & up, opens and closes, has fine details like stained glass and moving staircases. It has dungeons and lights and all sorts of tiny curiosities. My 2nd and 1st grader built it ALL BY THEMSELVES - with ZERO help, prompting, direction interpretation, advice - or even encouragement like, why don\'t you go build? from their dad or me. We literally have not touched it - not even once to say explain directions. (When a portion of the building was done incorrectly, our 8 year old caught the mistake, took that portion of the build apart, and rebuilt it. This is a kid who, historically, has serious attention deficit issues. That she saw the vision, was excited and could focus is... a true testament).
All of this curiosity, love for building, teamwork, and imagination arose from about 3 classes with Lego Master Corey, who teaches unbelievably amazing courses for Testing Mom. My girls shriek when they find out they get to take one of his classes, and in a short amount of time, he has opened incredible doors for their imaginations. My girls have also built LegoLand in their room, which includes princess castles with moats, goblins, knights... that they made by themselves with no instructions or guide. They were able to do that because of Corey and his incredible building concepts, recipes for building, and patience when he teaches his courses. He provides structure and tools - but encourages imagination. It is honestly like having two different kids now as compared with before we started taking classes with Testing Mom.
We have since taken incredible classes in STEM, writing, Chess (my 7-year-old can now beat me, and I am not happy about that part...), and have signed up for many more. It is just been such an invaluable resource for my family and I highly recommend the courses for all.
(Incidentally we also homeschool and tutor with Testing Mom; my review for that is written elsewhere, and is also 5 stars as my kids have gone from behind to leap-frogging several grade levels in only 4 months - their tutor just recommended Mensa activities for our oldest - and I can not imagine re-enrolling them in a traditional school). Thank you Testing Mom!
Lilia says:
Lego Master Corey always does a great job of explaining what they will be working on, what they will need, and he makes every child feel that they are listened to. The under the sea project allowed the children to use their imagination.
Brittany says:
My kids were incredibly entertained and the time went by quickly.
Ellen says:
Both my kids really enjoyed the classes with Legomaster Corey. They had a great time. Fun, it was a laid-back and creative atmosphere where the kids were happy to be doing their work
A. Bustillo says:
Corey is an amazing teacher we had so much fun building and he enhances my son\'s love for LEGOS.
Corey is not only talented but he has an amazing personality that brings the children into his world and keeps them excited and motivate to do the required tasks.
Filipa says:
The kids love LEGO, but normally just make small figures out of them not larger landscapes. I think that with this course and under the guidance of Lego master Corey, they explored making big-picture creations and had a lot of fun getting outside of the box. Master Corey was very patient and answered every question even when asked multiple times. I thought he provided structure and guidance and also kept things interesting. The online class that combines Legos and Minecraft was a great way to keep the kids interested. My kids experienced a new way to play with Legos (that are not sets) and renewed their interest in the blocks.
Stacey says:
My son Robert loved that it was “a big challenge” and that there was both “creative mode” day and “survival mode” day. He also liked that the number of bricks was restricted for each challenge because it made him think more. Lego Master Corey was VERY patient with the kiddos who kept calling his name, asking repeated questions, and showing up without the specified bricks.
Great combo of fun and education.
Erin C. says:
Master Corey was awesome and very patient. My son said the class was awesome. He wanted to know when the next class was! And he hadn’t played with Legos in a while. Corey made it fun.
Ane says:
My child loved it. He said the instructor pays attention to him when he talks.
Your child can be a child. Everyone is so respectful and the attention my child has received is amazing.
Annie says:
He is patient and knows how to keep the kids engaged. My son loved LEGO Master Corey.
Shawna says:
It’s always fun to participate in a class that stimulates ideas and creativity. This particular one, I enjoyed the fact that Corey gave them a specific instructions about how many of each color they were to use, but then gave them the opportunity to free create.
Jeana says:
My son was counting down the hours to the next class because he loved the first one so much. Corey has an amazing amount of patience.
Tulasi says:
Nivedh Enjoyed the Lego class. Corey communicated with the kids at their level, making things easy for them. It did not appear like my son was meeting him for the first time.
Zulekha says:
My daughter loved the class. They were able to make some games and we all enjoyed playing them.

Karen says:
The class was a blast! My child had so much fun.
Skyler says:
He works really well with children of all ages. He is kind, supportive, and patient with the students. My son loves that he can interact with the instructor while they build their Lego sets. He said it helps that he can ask questions and share his ideas during the class.
Yvonne says:
I believe my child\'s instructor was Corey. He had a great time in the class and was very excited about it. We will be doing more Lego classes in the future. My son was very excited and really took an interest in the class.

Taneeta says:
The teacher is very engaging, patient, and helpful. My child likes the pace of the class. He says the teacher doesn’t move too fast or too slow so it’s easy to follow along while building and searching for Lego pieces. He really looks forward to these camps. The teacher is very knowledgeable about his craft. My child wants to be an architect so Lego Master Corey really inspires him. He is one of the most engaging and encouraging instructors I have seen since being a member of Testing Mom!
Dana says:
Fun, Creative Class. My son liked Corey and he answered all my sons questions nicely
