JoAnn ( our counselor) was so amazing, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She made the most hectic application experience feel like a breeze. We were well organized and focused from the get go!!! As a parent, I highly recommend HS2. It's definitely money worth spend knowing that we received professional guidances at any time we needed. My daughter also found the homework club extremely helpful; it was a great resource throughout her high school years because she could always get quality help whenever she needed.

Inno-V really helped me open up my college options and allowed me to present my best self to…read morecolleges. As a person who is prone to procrastination, I think having a college counselor definitely helped big time. My counselor helped me pick out my goals, set up a plan, and keep up with my personal deadlines which I would probably have slacked off on if by myself. Of course, this is not to mention the navigation of the different college application sites. (There's literally so many and they would crash ALL THE TIME. Literally don't know where I would be without Vi) Since I attended a large public school, the school counselors' really were not even close to enough. You'd be lucky if they submitted your transcripts for you on time, never mind essays and extracurriculars and stuff. Some of my friends who went without a counselor often found themselves either missing important college deadlines or just not having enough time to edit their 500 essays which, thank god, was not a problem for me. (Even if I finished like LAST LAST min Vi always pulled through for me at the end and got it to me on time and within the word count!) They also really care about your feelings and mental health so you could always talk to them if your encountering anything you don't feel comfortable telling your parents. Really friendly staff as well. It's really only with the help of Inno-V did I up at decent colleges in the end, and I'd definitely recommend this service to anyone reading this!

When I first reached out to Inno- V for college counseling service on college transferring, they…read moreimmediately scheduled a call with. While most college consulting business won't actively work with you until you became official client, my experience with Inno-V went much beyond the expectations. Rather than typical business relationship, the educational consultant I worked tried to be your best friend and get to know your character to help you become better in academics, experience, and daily life. He would always actively help me brainstorming for my essay prompts. In addition, my consultant was always there for me when I needed help. I was fortunate enough to get acceptances from UC Berkeley Haas school of business, USC Marshall school of business, Emory university, Boston university and all UCs. I would say that I won't be able to get into all those elite programs without inno-V. I highly recommend working with Inno- V counseling because their professional and experience in the industry will prepare you for your future.

We have tried a few other tutors before Anurag and were disappointed. Once she started working with Anurag, things changed pretty quickly and by the AP Test time she was ready for the test. She got 4 on the test which was a huge accomplishment as a sophomore. For next year she already started working with Anurag on AP Physics and AP Calc AB and she is just sailing through and is very happy with her progress and level of confidence. Anurag is super patient and is able to explain complex concepts really well. He's also great at guiding her on how to break down AP Test style questions and get through them without feeling overwhelmed.

(SEE PICS ATTACHED) Aidan is the best communicator, he's super patient, explains complex concepts in a clear and approachable way for my kid to understand.

Not Disability-Friendly & Big Drop in Quality After Management Change…read more I worked with Goals Art Academic Tutor through the Department of Rehabilitation while dealing with a serious health condition that affects my memory and brain function. They knew this from the beginning. The whole point of me being there was to get help building systems so I wouldn't forget tasks, emails, assignments, and basic things that come with school and life. At first, the experience was much better. When Mason was there, the service felt more supportive and accountable. If there were issues, he checked in and made sure things were handled. After he left, the quality of service went downhill. Leadership didn't take the same level of responsibility when problems came up, and concerns were mostly kept "within the tutors" instead of actually being addressed at a higher level. One of my tutors (Brianna) was great and genuinely supportive. My experience with another tutor (Maddie) was not a good fit at all. Our sessions felt uncomfortable, and at one point I was told things that made me feel like I wasn't going to succeed. She also made negative comments about my other tutor, which put me in a really awkward position. I tried to request a change in tutor because it wasn't working for me, but I wasn't given that opportunity. What made this worse is that when concerns were raised, it felt like leadership relied more on what this tutor reported rather than actually checking in with me or looking at my progress. At the time, I had been sick and told her I was behind on some assignments, which is pretty normal when you're dealing with health issues. What wasn't acknowledged is that I had caught up, completed my work, and finished my exams shortly after. That context didn't seem to matter. Instead of adjusting strategies to support my memory and health-related challenges (which is literally what DOR is paying them to help with), it felt like the blame was put on me. The support I was supposed to receive to help me remember things like emails and tasks wasn't consistently implemented until very late in the process. There was progress happening, but it got overshadowed by internal issues and poor handling of concerns. In the end, my services were terminated without a real conversation or collaborative attempt by the CEO. It felt dismissive and honestly pretty hurtful, especially as someone with a disability trying to rebuild skills after a major health setback. If you're someone with ADHD, neurological issues, memory problems, or any kind of disability, please be careful with this organization. They may work fine for people without complex needs, but in my experience, they are not well-equipped or properly trained to support people with disabilities. The service changed over time, and not in a good way. I'm now working with a different agency that actually understands disability-informed support, and the difference is night and day.

My child worked with GOAL for a year. The first tutor found a great way to work with my child and…read morethe tutoring sessions seemed successful. Then. In the middle of the year, the tutor left. They found another tutor and my child started the process again, getting to know this new tutor, as the new tutor was also coming up to speed. Then this tutor left. In total, they had four tutors work with my child. The last person was very pregnant, although we couldn't tell as the sessions were on-line. She was with my child for only a month prior to going on maternity leave. Then they offered to find a new tutor for the few remaining weeks of the school year and I just had to cancel services. Considering the amount of time necessary for both the tutor and the child to learn about each other and comfortable move forward in the learning process, I am unable to recommend this team to anyone as their style of replacing tutors is counterproductive.

My son attended Engenious Tutoring for about half of the last school year. At the time, he was…read morestruggling with Common Core math, as well as writing skills. Overall, the tutoring was helpful, but I do wish there had been better communication from the instructors regarding his progress and areas that needed improvement. One of the highlights of the program was an instructor named Trenton. My son connected with him right away, and Trenton was excellent at communicating with both students and parents. When he left, my son was very disappointed, as he had built a strong rapport with him and looked forward to their sessions. While there were positive aspects to the program, I believe stronger communication with parents would have made the experience even better.

We found Engenius at a critical moment, and I couldn't be more grateful. From the start, Mike (the owner) impressed me with his deep knowledge of the local high school's curriculum -- and even the specific teaching style of her math instructor. He quickly put together a plan to get her back on track, and it worked. Justin, her tutor, was fantastic. He explained complex concepts in a way that made sense to her and helped rebuild her confidence along the way. Mike also offered practical tips for how she could adjust her study habits at home, which made a big difference. By the end of the semester, she had raised her grade to a C+--just shy of a B. We decided to continue tutoring into the next term, and she finished the class with an A. I can't recommend Engenius enough. They truly turned things around for her.
