Instructors like Heather were great. They gave us detailed updates on our children…read more The supervisor Minerva on the other hand was unprofessional and gave us false hope. We had told her up front that our child has behavioral issues including ADHD, and she reassured us that they work with children like this all the time, which is why we chose Sylvan to begin with. But after one month of disappointment, we had no choice but to stop. It's as if she gave up on our our child. And when it came time to leave, she offered us nothing--no apology, no guidance, no recommendations, no hope, no closure, nothing. By the way our kids also reported that one of the tutors even threw my kid's stuffed animal across the room against a wall. We understand our kid shouldn'tve brought it in the first place, but that doesn't excuse such violent behavior. Lastly our children built up thousands of "points" but never knew how to redeem them and were never even offered the chance to do so. In short, don't waste your time and money here. Your children deserve so much better.

If you can afford to do 3 times a week that's where I've seen the most difference. The jump in progress from 1 time a week to 3 is just astonishing! But even having her once a week for the kids is astounding. Thank you for all you do!

My kid is in kindergarten, he improved a lot with the help of Rona. Highly recommended.read more

Learning Tree is a great place for your kids to have fun learning and develop their social skills…read more My two sons have been attending here for the past two years and their academic work and social skills have improved. The teachers focus on academics, team work and communication. I noticed my kids displaying good manners, communicating effectively with others, and being considerate of the feelings of others which developed their social skills. I'm so glad my Wife and I found this school....they have been awesome. I highly recommend Learning Tree for parents looking for a after school program.

I had a very disappointing experience with Learning Tree. My son attended the program from last…read moreOctober until April of this year, and the experience was never truly what we had hoped for. At the beginning, we were invited to a group chat with teachers and staff, where responses were prompt and communication felt excellent - a major reason we chose the program. Regrettably, this responsiveness faded after a few months, with far more messages left unread or ignored than addressed. Additionally, we received no detailed academic updates about my son's progress throughout his entire time there. Teachers barely greeted you when picking up a child. Maybe this is the norm, but as a Korean mom who attended Korean hagwons (after school programs) before, in addition to being a teacher at an after-school program myself for five years in the past, this felt a bit rude and very unwelcoming. My son can have challenging behaviors, something I was transparent about from day one. I do appreciate that the staff worked with him over the months. However, after his dismissal in April, the lack of communication became especially concerning. I have followed up multiple times about the prorated refund for the unused portion of April's tuition and clarification on the refundable status of the enrollment deposit. Despite this, Grace, the program manager, has not responded since April. I gave her two months before writing this review. Additionally, when I directly asked Grace whether news of his dismissal had been shared with other parents, she assured me it had not. That said, I have since sensed uncomfortable vibes from certain parents whose children are in the same class, leading me to wonder if information was shared after all (my gut feeling tells me it has, because what are the chances? Timing is too coincidental). Regardless of the reason for dismissal, families deserve transparent billing, timely financial resolution, and basic professional courtesy. Being left in the dark after months is both surprising and disheartening. This has been a very negative, unwelcoming, and unprofessional experience. This place cannot be trusted. I would strongly advise other families to look elsewhere.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Best Learning Center after school learning academy! From…read morethe moment I walked in, I knew this was a place that truly prioritizes the growth and academic excellence of each student. The teachers are incredibly attentive, taking the time to understand the unique needs and strengths of every student. Their passion for teaching is so evident, and they go above and beyond to make learning fun, engaging, and meaningful. My 1st grader misses his teacher Ms. Emily when either one of them miss a day. It's clear that the center is dedicated to fostering a deep understanding of the subjects they cover, rather than just rote memorization. My child has not only improved academically but has also developed a deeper love of learning. One of the things that stands out the most is the supportive and focused atmosphere. The other children in attendance are equally driven and committed to their studies, which creates a positive, motivating environment. It's a space where kids feel comfortable asking questions, collaborating with peers, and doing their very best. Best Learning Center has truly made a difference in my child's academic journey, and I couldn't be more grateful! I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing, effective after-school program. Special Notes- 1. They are open on additional non-school days (sometimes). 2. They are open until 6pm which helps with my long commute. 3. They have transportation, but are also very close to Arovista Elementary. 4. They match school hours, even early release Wednesdays. 5. Easy to make payment and communicate with Brandon, the learning center director.

My review is 7 years late. Our twins were just 6 when I looked into BLC. I enrolled them into in…read morethe 4 hour BLC summer, morning program. They were put into a mixed group and given work; entries to read, analyze, and then write about. The reason for my review all these years later is to share that as a mother who wanted to afford my children stimulation for growth, BLC is NOT a fit for younger children. This program is for older kids. Jennifer Dinh-Avila either had no understanding of what her program is capable of offering or didn't care. She should have. I too as their caregiver shouldn't have been fooled by her reports and feedback. How can a 6 y/o child sit and learn for hours on end? The motivation for this review years later is to save a child(ren) , a mother, a family from the mistake I made. Please notice, the pictures and testimonials are from older children. Jennifer, hopefully this is eye opening for you as we can all learn from this and take it as a win.

Went to BLC many years ago when it just started to get help with Geometry from Mr. Avila and it was…read moregreat experience. He helped me with my homework and taught me concepts I didn't understand from school. Along with that, he prepared me for quizzes and exams by providing extra practice- even practice he created himself so it would coincide with my teacher's testing. Now I am taking my nephews to Breakthrough and they are enjoying and thriving in their academics. They have been going the last two years, now in 3rd and 6th grade. They do their homework there and some supplemental work to advance in both their math and writing skills. When I talk to them about, they only have positive things to say about their teachers. Environment is great for all levels and it seems like Mrs. Jen, the director, is very involved with their curriculums and providing extra support for the kids. I know that when I needed extra help back then, Mr. Avila and Mrs. Jen always took extra time to help me succeed in my classes. Definitely recommend Breakthrough to other families.
