I’ve really enjoyed Lilly’s classes. She is incredibly knowledgeable and shares valuable insights from her experience working with kids in daycare.

These real-world examples have been especially useful for me, helping me better understand and apply the concepts we’re learning. Her practical approach makes the class engaging and relevant.

I had the pleasure of being a student at DEA Canadian College, and I want to commend my Early Childhood Education Assistant teacher, Lilly Sadeghi.

She stepped in to substitute our original teacher midway through the course, and her teaching methods were fantastic. Lili’s classes were not only engaging and practical but also prepared us for real-time situations we will face in our daycare jobs. Her approach was hands-on, and she made sure we were well-equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge. I truly enjoyed her class and highly recommend her!

I ‘ve found that staff at DEA College have always been very friendly and helpful. Whether it be registering in courses, online portal.

I am extremely grateful to Mrs. MITRA as the College admin assistance because waiting period was never too long and regarding emails. I usually got response back within a day. I’ve completed the management course here and I was able to improve my job. I recommend the practical courses if you are looking for a new chapter of your life
