[LRUG] [Jobs] Teach Your Monster to Read: Small agency / team required to help us scale up

[Hakan Ensari]

This is off-topic, but do you want to teach your monster to read at age
FOUR? Do you even want them to sit in front of a computer screen at that
age?

My son is in pre-school (Lauriston, anyone?), and we're having to deal with
the immense absurdity of an public educational system that thinks it's
priority to teach five-year-olds to read and write rather than have them
play, make things with their hands, socialise and generally get settled.

Sorry for flaming. Consider it customer feedback, assuming your real
customers are the parents who are freaking out why their kids are not
liking phonics and have yet to make the leap to a Steiner school or some
other private refuge.
