Answer 1

I've heard of it, but never used it.  I also heard that it was really good.

Answer 2

Stay away, far away. Mimi Rothschild is a scam artist from the word go.

Answer 3

I plan to steer clear of the academy and the other "Learning by Grace" schools.  They were started by Mimi Rothschild, who, with Howard Mandel started the controversial, and failed Einstein Academy in PA.

She goes by different names (Mimi Mandel is one) so no one can make the easy connection to her.

Here are some links about the incidents with the school, and the legal troubles:
