Yi Su first became intrigued with FasTracKids in China. When she saw 3- and 4-year-olds doing presentations in front of the audiences, she was awestruck and tried to find something similar here. FasTracKids existed in New York City but not on Long Island. Wanting her own children to benefit from such a fine early childhood education, she began to study the company, its programs, and its unique way of teaching.

Through FasTracKids, she also learned about JEI — academic enrichment programs for pre-k through ninth grade. She was impressed by their computerized diagnostic testing. The JEI system evaluates the results and pinpoints the child’s weak areas and strengths. The system then generates a workbook to let the student strengthen them. 

This knowledge prompted Su to purchase two franchises — FasTracKids and JEI — and to combine them under one roof in Bellmore. Each operation is about children, education and innovation. Both can be found in many countries, so can be modified to meet the needs of the surrounding area.

FasTracKids is a signature program for ages three though seven, meeting once a week for two hours. Subjects include Communication, Biology, Technology and How Things Work, Goals and Life Lessons, Natural and Earth Sciences, Creativity, Astronomy, Literature, Speech, Economics, Drama and Art.

“We teach our students how to learn,” explained Su. “We do this by zigzagging teaching methods to maintain the child’s focus. We not only enroll your children, but also your family. We are the pioneer in using cutting edge technology for early childhood education. We started using Smart Boards in 1998 to develop the children’s knowledge, help them understand it, use and evaluate it, and create their own ideas and things based on that knowledge.”
