The instructors are truly interested and engaged with the kids and you can tell that they love what they do. My daughter went from failing and hating math to getting 100% in a matter of a couple months. She has more self confidence in problem solving and actually likes to go to the center. I would recommend Mathnasium for any kid who feels like they are behind in their math class or cant keep up with the homework. The problem solving skills she has learned from the instructors will last her through her future college math courses. We couldn't be happier!

I used two of IHL's services--one was great, the other unbelievably, shockingly bad…read more First, I did their LSAT prep testing curriculum and was paired with an amazing, patient, engaged tutor. He was always available to text and really, really knew his stuff. Then, to get more clarity on the admissions process, I signed up for an admissions counseling session with the managing partner Mayssoun Bydon. I was shocked by how big a waste of time and money this was. It's an incredibly expensive service, at around $500 an hour. I had prepared a long list of questions and wanted to use that time as effectively as possible. Not only did she show up over 25 minutes(!) late for the session, she was remarkably unengaged and gave information that was more than unhelpful. I was shocked by her lack the lack of professionalism she exhibited for someone with such a good reputation. I asked about the character and the experience of what it would be like to go to different law schools, and she told me just to look at their rankings "and that would tell me the vast majority of what I needed to know". I asked with my scores what schools I should be applying for, and she told me University of Illinois, University of Iowa, etc. I told her this wasn't right, and that my GPA seemed lower than it actually was bc I went to an undergrad school known for its lack of grade inflation. She told me this didn't matter, and that I shouldn't bother with top schools. Well, I ended up getting accepted into schools in the T-14. If I followed her advice I would have missed a massive opportunity. Also, she asked me if I had any personal connections to any of the top schools. I told her that my great uncle had been a janitor at the Unicersity of Chicago. She insinuated that I should lie and say he was my grandfather on the application. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
