    Educational Connections has been a "best all around" experience for me and my family. It is a joy…read moreand privilege to work amongst so many bright and caring educators. As a parent, I have seen firsthand what a game changer it is for a child to have 1:1 support that comes from someone other than Mom and Dad. My daughter has worked with Jan at EC. The relationship they have formed and skills my daughter has learned have been critical to my child's classroom confidence. Jan has been a gift and our gratitude is high!

    Would HIGHLY recommend this tutoring company to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional…read moretutor or executive function coach to work with their child. We have used this service for the last two and half years and cannot tell you how much we have benefited from the support of the coaches that have worked with our son. His confidence has improved with his writing, learning how to organize his thoughts better when tackling history and English Language Arts assignments. He's doing more than just the bare minimum, including more descriptive language and details. He's proactively creating outlines while reading to set himself up for success when trying to remember details later for questions or discussions. He's gotten better at self-advocacy, reaching out to teachers via email, when he's unsure of how to tackle an assignment or something isn't working correctly vs. just ignoring the issue. All things he wouldn't dream of doing on his own two years ago. Added bonus is that it has taken some of the pressure off of us, his parents, and the stress it was causing us when "nagging" him about his homework and missing assignments. Just wish we would have started sooner!!

    Disclaimer: This is the first negative review I have ever written. I have never left a negative…read morereview online, only positive when I'm happy with a business but due to how horrible my experience was with this business, I had to inform others. Prep with Jen is not really prep with "Jen". I went by the Google reviews not realizing that the most recent review was over a year ago... If you are interested in private lessons, be prepared to pay $110+ for an hour and you aren't even getting sessions with Jen. She subcontracts her sessions out to other tutors and has very little oversight over the sessions other than her being cc'd on the summary emails. They don't record sessions (even my son's wyznat tutors record sessions!), and her tutors are not as qualified or engaging as she is. She picks up the phone and talks a lot with you before you sign up, builds a personal plan and approach but once you drop thousands of dollars on her packages, she disappears and only reappears when the tutor summons her over an extremely trivial issue (rescheduling class time requests in our case). She isn't interested in customer service and is only concerned with maximizing her tutors schedule with clients. I would not recommend at all - not only was the tutor not worth the rate, her customer service was horrible after we signed the contract UPDATE: In response to Jen's response, her claims are bogus. Her tutor wasn't happy that we asked to reschedule 3 times out of 8 sessions because of 1 time having the flu , one time a serious car accident and 1 time an unforeseeable conflict! Rather than picking up the phone and discussing with the family, Jen claimed my son was unengaged which was absolute lies! How non empathetic is that?! My son is an honors student with 4.3 GPA so forgive me if I think you're claims are bogus... She has zero evidence to back up her below claims, as my sons score already improved but majorly due to his own studying and not because of her tutors sessions which pretty much was a project management approach of watching my son complete assignments rather than truly explaining concepts. Although we accommodated changes in timing by her tutor for 5 sessions, her tutor for some reason didn't appreciate 3 reschedules and then made these bogus claims of unegagement to Jen that she decided to not even validate with the family. If you want personalized instruction with a tutoring organization that is invested in your personal success, this isn't the place for you.

    I took the 8-week summer SAT prep course with Jen, and with her help, I got a score of 1550 on the…read moreDigital SAT (DSAT) on my first attempt! This score was a massive 300-point improvement from my PSAT that I took the year before. Initially, Jen's class helped me to familiarize myself and solve the different types of reading, grammar, and math questions, giving me the initial bump to the 1450 range on a practice test. Then, she taught me to be more vigilant regarding the more deceptive questions, ultimately allowing me to get consistent scores in the mid to high 1500s on the College Board practice SATs. Throughout the process, Jen was very accommodating and answered all of my and my parent's questions about the DSAT. I highly recommend this class to students at all levels looking to improve their scores and can't thank Jen enough for my improvement.

Since it had been sometime that I had last graduated, I was looking for some real guidance in helping me prepare for the exam. After my usual exhaustive search online, I came upon Griffon Prep and decided to give them a shot. I went to the first session with Jeff and was immediately sold on this place. Both Jeff and Bernie are awesome people and great teachers. I had a good learning experience with them. I did end up with a much better score than what I had anticipated and cannot thank Bernie enough for her coaching. I did get accepted to a couple of good schools on my list!! I would recommend Griffon to anyone who is looking for test prep - great location, good fees, and awesome instructors!

They legitimately care about the success of their students. Indeed, even after law school, I have stayed in touch with them. Their teaching methodology is wonderful, very hands on, and kept me thoroughly engaged. As an experiential learner, this worked really well for me. I also would like to highlight that I took multiple courses with Griffon Prep and each time, I loved the other teachers as well as the other students. I think it is a testament to Bernie and Jeff that they cultivate such a collaborative and positive learning environment. Also, for those who care only for results, my LSAT score went up double digits (I also took their GRÉ course and also improved significantly).

    To be frank, there is nothing exceptional about this testing center. The process is very cut and…read moredry, straight to the point. The staff does not deviate from protocol or their required scripts unless you ask a question. I wasn't allowed to wear my Nike rain jacket because they said it would make a swoosh sound, but they offered me jackets that had been left at the facility "months ago." I didn't like that the testing center has a weird "musty basement" smell. I like that this testing center is pretty small compared to others I've went to. There's less than 20 computers in the room and they're all against the wall so you're in your own zone. My test lasted 2 fairly quiet hours. When I finished the proctor didn't tell me if I passed or failed but have a little smile that was reassuring. I would come back to this test center because of the small space and testing privacy of the cubicles.

    I was kind of scared off by the poor reviews below but decided to schedule my exam here anyway…read morebecause driving 40 minutes to Reston did not sound like fun either. I was happily surprised by how pleasant and friendly the gentleman at the front desk and lady monitoring the exams were. They readily answered my questions about the testing rules and COVID procedures. And the guy at the front desk was so happy for me when I passed my exam. He couldn't tell me verbally but when he passed me my result paper I could kind of tell I passed by his demeanor and body language before I even looked at the paper. I hope these are the people you encounter for your exam. My only complaint is that I called the center prior to scheduling my exam and left a message but no one called me back.
