    "I've been making rounds to this place in order to get an admission for my niece...and so far my experience has been very bad...the lady at the front desk is always rude and unwelcoming ...seems very frustrated of her job...besant montessori either you need to change your staff or the lady needs to change her attitude....you can't treat relatives of potential students like that"
