The kids love how she explains math so clearly. They just get it when she teaches them. And they really get it because she's asking them questions during the session to check their understanding. Confidence and grades have soared! My 7 year old tutors with Laura because he wants to increase his math skills. I especially love that she doesn't limit what he can learn at his age. He's learned his multiplication and division tables, rounding to the 10,000's, perimeter, area and today he learned fractions. It's only been 8 weeks. We signed up for another 8 weeks. Really cool to see his mind light up! Thank you CEC and thank you Laura!!!

I looked up many tutoring centers in the area and decided on CEC. I signed her up for AST twice a week. Within two weeks she was starting to get it and even got an 85% on her math test - which before she averaged 70%. She had so much more confidence with math and the staff, especially Mr. Brian worked around her busy schedule. I can't thank CEC enough for all their help and patience with us and look forward to many more tutoring sessions for my daughter!

From the very first day, Ms. Emily and her wonderful team welcomed him with so much warmth, patience, and understanding. They truly see each child for who they are, and treat them with love, empathy, and genuine care.

I also appreciate how they incorporate some academic concepts so the children are not only having fun but also learning. My son comes home happy, full of stories, and eager to share what he did. Oodles has given us such a positive and memorable summer experience. I'm so thankful to have found a place where my child feels safe, valued, and loved. We truly love, love, love Oodles!

Laura is a wonderful and amazing teacher! I am an elementary school teacher; I decided to take…read moreSpanish classes with Laura because I wanted to be able to communicate effectively with my students' parents at school. I took three years of Spanish in high school but didn't continue my studies after high school. Due to not studying Spanish for several years, I lost many foundational skills as well as my confidence in conversational speaking. Prior to the lessons, I was only able to speak several words and phrases, but now I'm able to have a basic conversation. After taking several sessions with Laura I have gained confidence with basic conversational skills in Spanish. The weekly Skype classes worked perfect with my schedule. She is very accommodating and flexible when it comes to scheduling classes. The classes are full immersion; she encourages you to only speak Spanish throughout the entire session. The classes and homework were tailored to my individual needs as a student. Laura is extremely patient and makes each class challenging yet engaging. I highly recommend her services!

I've been taking remote lessons with Laura for 1 year and in that time I've been able to…read moresignificantly advance Spanish language skills. I can now converse fluently in everyday scenarios, and I have an intermediate business vocabulary with an 80% comprehension of my Spanish-speaking professional colleagues (enough to ask the right questions!). I run an international tech start-up that requires frequent travel to Mexico City. I wanted to build on the four years of Spanish I took high school so that I could get around the city while traveling, as well as communicate more effectively with the staff and vendors that were not fluent in English. My work hours tended to be long and unpredictable, so the Skype sessions with Laura were actually a huge selling point for me - I don't think I could have improved my Spanish any other way as physical classroom lessons were out of the question for me. Because I wasn't practicing Spanish regularly, I was VERY rusty. Prior to my first lesson, Laura gave me a placement test so she could assess where I should begin. Every session is 100% Spanish, so I wasn't sure how we were going to pull this off. I am not going to lie - my Spanish was stilted, jarring and filled with "umm" and "hmm" during the first lesson, almost like I never learned a thing in school! Rest assured, Laura was an intuitive instructor and adapted the topics to help me feel more comfortable in the first couple of sessions. During lessons, we used the Skype chat function to help translate or conjugate words I needed to learn, so that was very useful - and I was able to go back and review her feedback afterward. While Skype has been a great communication tool, it only works because there's a seasoned educator behind it. One of Laura's strengths is her ability to adapt and contextualize the lessons to my specific needs. The first couple of months I had homework prior to each lesson, which refreshed me on the basics. Later, the lessons became more conversational and we ran through some business related topics so I could learn vocabulary I was most likely to use. After 3 weeks, I stopped stumbling over my words; after 3 months, I was able to travel solo in Mexico without a lick of English; after 6 months, I was able to understand about 50% of professional Spanish speakers; and after 1 year, I read, write, and speak Spanish daily - informally and professionally. My Spanish is not always perfect, but it's very good and I feel confident speaking to others. I'm still taking lessons to keep improving. I've recommended Laura to other friends and peers because she's helped me so much. If you are serious about learning, give a few lessons a try. Si está considerando las lecciones de Laura, no lo dude. En un mes regrese y lea esta reseña y le prometo que estará de acuerdo conmigo. Buena suerte!

Students learned about Setsubun and Hanamatsuri, had Undokai (sports day), field trips to LittleTokyo, and saw demonstrations of activities like bonodori, taiko, and kendo.

They went on to continue their Japanese studies in college, traveled all over Japan on their own, and have developed close friends there. To the teachers and staff, お疲れさまでした。

But though it is probably best known for its Oxford Prep program, its other tutoring services do not lack anything. After being enrolled in Oxford Prep and subsequently being accepted into Oxford Academy, I came back to Pace a few times in high school for help in various subjects such as calculus and English. My math teachers did not simply assist me with my homework but guided me in learning chapters ahead. This helped me to be prepared in advance for quizzes and tests and develop study habits. Whenever I wrote an essay for English class, Tim was always willing to look over multiple drafts of it to see where I could improve it. He also made sure I understood the books I was reading on a deeper level by helping me analyze the literary texts to see the overarching themes. One thing that stands out to me about Pace in comparison to other afterschools/tutoring centers is its atmosphere. I got to know most of the teachers on a name-by-name basis for they all are very friendly. The principal is not only very nice but also very professional and experienced as she has led the academy for over 15 years. Also, because many students at Pace see its benefits and so attend for multiple years, you see many familiar faces, overall adding to the homely vibe. Pace is a place I definitely recommend; it was a place where I built up academic knowledge and friendship, a place I don't regret attending.
