Genius Kids - Award Winning Accelerated Learning Franchise

"The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled." – Plutarch 
At Genius Kids, we believe that education and learning is a lifetime journey. Education is not about learning facts but about learning how to think confidently and being able to express creatively without fear. It is about learning to act with purpose to make good choices. Education is a lifelong process and Genius Kids makes it fun, exciting and enriching by equipping the child with critical life skills of confidence, communication and love for learning, incorporating smart board interactive technology and public speaking.

Visit us today and learn more about our award winning programs.

Founded August 1, 2001, Genius Kids opened its first classroom in the Ardenwood Campus in Fremont, California with only 2 students under the guidance, passion & vision of the founder Rennu Dhillon. A pharmacist by education, with a Doctorate in Natural Sciences, and numerous specializations in Pubic Speaking, Etiqueet, Grooming & Learning Disabilities, Dhillon has spent several years training adults, marketing & recruiting. She was astounded at the lack of confidence & communication skills in candidates she would send for interviews. "On paper they had all the skills needed, but when it came to conducting a 1-1 interview or using interpersonal skills, it was shocking to see the lack of self-confidence", expressed Dhillon.

A brilliant academic student herself, Dhillon was raised in Kenya and United Kingdom, where focus is placed on early education. “I was shocked to see that formal education in the United States begins at age 5, & found the American elementary education not very challenging. I was introduced to drama, theatre & public speaking to me when I was 3 years old.” From her experience of struggling to find preschools that would give her own two daughters the strong foundation & education she had received herself, she felt there was a void in the preschools & after school programs for a well-rounded educational curriculum which would offer leadership development combined with fun academics.

1. An introductory conversation – Getting to know each other.
   Genius Kids strives on relationships and that starts by getting to know you. The first step is a conversation with a Genius Kids representative so that we can introduce ourselves to one another. We’re interested in your background, your goals and your experience. We can then focus our subsequent conversations to provide you with the information you need about Genius Kids. At this stage you will be required to submit a no obligation confidential questionnaire providing us with your financials. No appointments or discussions are conducted for any incomplete applications.
    
2. Explaining our purpose, mission and programs.
   Given mutual interest, our next step is a presentation where we will provide you information about the purpose and mission of Genius Kids and give you an overview of our program portfolio. We also will tour one of our centers so you understand not only how we deliver our programs, but also why we use multimedia technology in our classrooms. During this interview you will also present your qualifications (and those of your partners, if applicable) to Genius Kids.
    
3. Franchise Agreement review – Explaining the business in contractual terms.
   We will provide you with a disclosure document which includes financial information and business models, as well as the Franchise Agreement which contains the terms and conditions that apply to your franchise. You will want to review these documents in detail and we will have conversations to answer any questions that you may have. This is part of your preparation for considering purchasing a franchise. We recommend you spend at least 14 days reviewing the materials.
