Can't say enough good things about Tutoring Club! When my boys had their initial assessment, I was…read moreshocked to see that neither one could tell Mr. A all the vowels in the alphabet. Fast forward 1.5-2 years later: my oldest started high school and is getting an A+ in almost every subject. My younger is now in middle school and has commented often how much the tutoring has helped in class: "I see my friends struggling with what the teacher presented today but I already knew how to do it because I learned it in tutoring". Investing in this tutoring program was worth every penny to see my kids excel in school. They are now confident and eager to learn. Big thanks to the team at Millbrae Tutoring Club!

My son started 6th grade last fall and as the months progressed, I noticed he was falling way…read morebehind in his reading and writing assignments. He was struggling as each months rolled by. And I tried to help him myself and I have tried other avenues of reading and writing programs that have not been successful for him. I have searched for many in-person tutoring sites to see which will be the best fit for him. When I was consulting with Mr A regarding my son's struggles, he knew exactly how I felt. I described in short that my son can't even write a SIMPLE descriptive christmas card is when I knew he was in trouble. When Alex got assessed , he was exactly in the level I knew he was, 3 grade levels behind. The more in depth we discussed how to get Alex Caught up and that tutoring clubs program has been successful, I truly believed this might be the help he will finally get and need. Mr A said my son has time to catch up and that their program is successful. Here we are 4.5 months later, I'd like to report that I am overwhelmed with joy to know my son has made major breakthrough in comprehension and writing. Though he still has a long way to go, but in the short time frame he's been at tutoring club, I have seen a major improvements in his comprehension, in his writing, and most importantly his self esteem. I recently read one of my sons argumentative papers and I cried happy tears. Given he still have grammatical and puntuation errors, I couldn't believe he wrote a full page essay. This has brought tears to my eyes because he couldn't even write a simple note in card without feeling frustrated. I am truly impressed and I thank you Mr A and the wonderful tutorers that have given my son their time and patience in teaching him. And my son doesn't dread attending class. They are remarkable teachers. I highly recommend Tutoring Club .

The staff on the unit is positive and the kids are mellow and motivated. No scariness.

I've seen signs about this place but hadn't heard too much about it. One weekend day she was frustrated at a problem and I was no help so I figured let's try it! Well it was the best thing. We have met with Jason and he's a really good tutor. I sat in the waiting room for the first meeting and I liked how he directed her to the answer instead of just giving her the answer. We will definitely be using this place more for both of my kids advanced math classes in high school. Thank you Jason!

During my observation of their setting, I was impressed by the hands-on methods they employed to engage each child. The atmosphere was dynamic, with peers actively participating and working collaboratively with the kids. My son is currently enrolled and loves Kumon. He is eager to do his homework! I attended Kumon when I was younger, and it helped me gain skills and a consistent routine to get into UC Davis. I cannot recommend Kumon highly enough. Starting this program at an early age is crucial, as it helps instill positive learning habits that can last a lifetime. Investing in Kumon now will undoubtedly significant rewards in the long run, particularly when it comes to preparing students for admission into outstanding colleges. The emphasis on foundational skills and comprehension is invaluable, setting children up for success in their academics.

It was my words against their words without a written contract. The regional director told me as "doing me a favor to be down at the office to meet with me". This was a very arrogant statement. As you can imagine, after they take your money, all courtesy is out the window. My suggestion is to go somewhere else where you can don't have to buy the package in advance. This way it can ensure the quality of services that your kid receives.

All of a sudden, before the school starts, the receptionist told me that my kids can't continue the Tuesday session with Philip anymore because I didn't respond to the email they sent to me. The Tuesday spots my kids have are given to other students. However, there is nothing stated in the email that we as the parents are required to respond to the email if we want to keep the same schedule, or if we didn't respond to the email, our regular session will be given to other students. No one at the center has ever asked my kids if they want to keep the same Tuesday session or switch to a different schedule before or after their tutoring session on Tuesdays. I talked to the center director Norman wang right away, he was very angry and raised up his voice to tell me that your kids have been with Philip for 2 years on Tuesday doesn't mean that they can be with Philip on the same schedule for as long as you want?!! My kids tried to talk to the front desk this evening as well, the front desk person at c2 just told my kids that since your mom didn't respond to the email, we can do whatever we want. I have included the email they sent to me. This is really unfair. I think they treated us this way is because we purchase a big package($16k)from c2 about 2 years ago. Just be very careful parents, if you want to buy tutoring package from c2, pay attention to the hours they subtract as well. A few parents have warned me about this. I will try to talk to the district manager to resolve this issue. Will keep you guys updated as soon as I hear more from the upper management.

Both of our children have advanced well beyond their school grade levels, and we truly credit Kumon more than their regular classes for that growth. The owner and instructor, Ms. Tian, is excellent to work with. She has always been flexible and understanding when our schedule changes because of sports or other activities. Her support and communication make a huge difference. The cost is absolutely worth it for the academic progress and confidence our kids have gained. We've recommended this center to other families and will continue to do so.

My child was having issues with his instructor and we had requested to switch our child to another instructor because they clashed the whole time. Unfortunately, instead of helping my child find an instructor who can work better with, the manager argued that the instructor assigned to our child was the best they've got(we found out later on that the instructor my child had was also the owner, so go figure). Our child used to enjoy Kumon and started dreading it when new management took over. To make a long story short, we pulled out our child from this Kumon Center and found a much better one that we are truly happy with. Also, I would also like to point out that most of the good reviews from this Center were made years ago already so don't be deceived. This Kumon place is now under new owners and they are not easy to work with. Our experience with them was terrible! I felt compelled to write this because I've come across a few parents who took their kids here but left as well-- Just don't waste your time and go somewhere else!
