He played something on the piano for us and then let my son play on the drum set because he felt kids need an outlet during the pandemic. My son had a blast playing the drums. Thank you so much for your kindness today! The world needs more people like you :)

He is one of the most patient and kind people I have ever met. When he was providing me with feedback and criticism, he would always follow it up with encouragement and always kept me motivated to do better. Now at age 22, I still have a great love for piano (and music in general) because of him. If you're considering signing yourself or your child up for lessons, I highly recommend! Milen and Rumyana can most definitely be trusted to provide an impactful and enriching musical education :)

BUYER BEWARE. Overpriced, over promises, and under delivers…read more C2's dubious plan starts with their diagnostic tests which are actually created by c2, not the College Board or ACT. They're harder than the official tests and designed to make your child feel dumb so you panic and the Center Director can "prescribe" an exorbitant number of hours to remedy your child's perceived academic deficits. Center Director emphasizes, ad nauseam, your child MUST come in 4-6 hours per week. This way, you'll burn through your hours and she can then sell you more hours before the "special sale" ends! Expect high pressure sales, fear mongering, and even personal sob stories from her. She will try every angle to gain your trust so you'll buy more hours and extend your c2 contract-and she can meet her monthly revenue target while taking home a nice commission. Cha-Ching! This haughty and corrupt Center Director acts like she's a college admissions expert. Just ask her where SHE got HER degree. You can easily find her on LinkedIn to verify (unless she edits it after seeing this). Let's just say, her international alma mater is nothing to brag about. She's a cunning saleslady. She makes a used car salesman look like an amateur so do your research BEFORE you get duped into signing a contract with her. Read the recent reviews on Trustpilot (Score: Poor) and the BBB (Grade: F, Unaccredited). My children say she is creepy, awkward, and disingenuous whenever she emerges from her office. Please, lady, crawl back into your lair! c2 changed their policy and NOW your hours suddenly expire. The Center Director lacks integrity and transparency. She won't honor the verbal promise she she made when we signed our original contract for NON-EXPIRING hours. Reneging on a promise is tantamount to being dishonest and untrustworthy. c2 will screw c2 families. Be very wary of Center Director's phone calls and her use of DocuSign. Be very wary. There are better, much more affordable tutoring centers out there where your kids will be happier and achieve results. Elite Prep Plano and Elite Prep Southlake have CLASSES so students get to learn with peers and commiserate WHEREAS c2's tutoring environment is isolating and depressing. Your child will dread going to c2 so plan to expend a lot of your own energy nagging them. Mathnasium is another, much better option for elementary, middle school, and high school aged kids. Mathnasium even has an online, virtual option called Mathnasium At Home if you don't want to wait for them in the parking lot. Also look into live virtual options like SuperTutor and J&J Test Prep. Jackie from J&J is fantastic especially for the Reading/English section. Find them on Fb or IG. Protect your child and your family's money. DON'T do business with Unscrupulous c2. c2 cares much more about taking your money than actually helping your child. And if you happen to have a child who naturally excels, they'll exploit him/her as propaganda and take credit for your child's success. It's comical to see the names they frame on their lobby walls while knowing full well how very little they actually did for our children. Don't believe the hype, folks. When Coppell's c2 center shuts down, don't expect a refund--not even a partial refund. Once you pay in full, before service is even rendered, your money is theirs and they intend to keep it. All of it. Read the unbiased reviews and horror stories out there. You've been warned. Please protect and warn your family and friends too.

The owner Jiyoung Johnston has no true care for the education/welfare of your children. Jiyoung…read moreJohnston will charge for a recital that does not have the equipment/instruments your child requires for their performance, making an extremely embarrassing and awkward situation for young performers, then she will attempt to bribe and intimidate your child. My 9 year old daughter has been studying electric guitar at Lone Star Music Academy since August. This has consisted of weekly in person sessions at the North Dallas location. On 11/2 she had her very first recital and was extremely nervous and excited, both sets of grandparents and aunts/uncles were in attendance. Upon arriving I checked in with Wendy who is the director of the Flower Mound location, I asked her if everything was set up for my daughter and Wendy assured me that a guitar and amp was in the next room and would be used. Once my daughter was called to the stage there was no guitar, there was no amp. After grabbing our guitar that we happened to have in the car and setting her up we were told there was no amp. Wendy made no move to assist, her helper attempted to move a microphone close to my daughter's electric guitar so the audience could hear her. I ended up having to hold the microphone close while my daughter played. No one could hear her ELECTRIC GUITAR and it was extremely awkward, my daughter was extremely embarrassed, the setup was horrible, and her instructor was not present (all other instructors were there with their students). Afterwards Wendy avoided me as I requested to speak with the owner Jiyoung Johnston. Jiyoung Johnston stated she was unaware of what instruments the students played and had assumed my daughter was playing piano. She became aggressive saying we should wait along with our entire family and have my daughter perform at the next recital scheduled for one hour later. This was a worthless suggestion because there was NO AMP at the MUSIC ACADEMY that my daughter could use. Jiyoung Johnston then asked to speak with my daughter and walked her down the hall to be out of earshot. I then saw Jiyoung Johnston pull my daughter into a room and stand with her back to the door blocking my daughter from walking out. before my wife made it to the room to get our daughter Jiyoung Johnston told my daughter "Your father is upset, perform again so he won't be mad" then made promises of "feeding her" which is disturbing in itself. Jiyoung Johnston only made excuses and has not apologized or reached out. I was charged $25.00 for a recital fee and have demanded to be reimbursed but have received no correspondence. My daughter is nine years old, this was her first public performance and it went so badly due to no fault of her own, she practiced every day for months and she was failed completely by Lone Star Academy. Right now my daughter has no desire to perform again, I am sure that will change in the future, and it is fine if it does not but the fact that she was excited and was let down so badly by the adults who were in charge of making sure the recital went well is unbelievable and disgusting. Kids remember and traumatic events can really stay with them for the rest of their lives.

I've been shopping at Hot Topic in the Vista Ridge Mall for over a decade (I even worked there for…read moreabout 8 months when I was 16). Now I don't expect for the employees to follow me around and wait on my every need, but I also don't expect poor customer service. Normally, we get greeted once we walk in the door and there's normally someone to tell us the current sales. Being in store, there's not really bad customer service, but yesterday I called the Lewisville location to inquire about exchanging something I bought online. The receipt that came with my package specifically says "May return in store" with a web address for finding the closest location. I didn't want to do a return, I merely wanted to exchange. I called at about 10:15 yesterday morning and the guy who answered said he didn't know if I could exchange it in store and that I would have to call back in an hour or so when he had a manager I could talk to. So I called back at 11:45 and the lady that answered was extremely rude just answering the phone, I hadn't even said anything yet and I already didn't want to talk to her, but I went ahead and explained my predicament and she told me that if I wanted to do an exchange in store from an online purchase I should probably go to a different location...? I said fine and called the Grapevine location. The lady that answered at Grapevine was extremely personable and told me there would not be any trouble with doing the exchange in store. I went to the Grapevine location today (even though I live five minutes from the Lewisville one) and worked with Mike, the Assistant Manager. He was super kind and efficient, he clearly knew what he was doing. I asked how long he had worked there and he said four years, so I knew I was in good hands. He explained the entire process of the exchange and had the new product (which he didn't have in store) shipped to my house. Long story short, I don't care how much farther the Grapevine location is from my house, I won't be going back to the Lewisville store. Thank you Mike and the Grapevine staff for showing me that not all Hot Topics are the same.
