We first enrolled with Grade Potential Tutoring in Austin, Texas last year. The tutor assigned to…read moremy daughter was excellent--she enjoyed working with her, and I believe the sessions had a positive impact on her grades. When summer arrived, we decided to pause tutoring services since our schedule becomes much busier due to frequent out-of-state travel. I notified Grade Potential that we would not be using tutoring services during the summer, requested that billing be stopped, and indicated we would resume once the school year began. However, I later noticed continued billing from Grade Potential despite my previous notification. Assuming it was an oversight, I contacted their office and spoke with a representative who reversed the charges. I believed that resolved the issue and that we would restart services when school resumed. To my surprise, while reviewing my credit card statement later, I discovered several additional unauthorized charges from Grade Potential. I contacted them again, and while the charges were again reversed, I expressed frustration and requested that no further billing occur unless we were actively using their services. When the new school year began, our previous tutor was no longer with the company, so we requested a replacement. The new tutor was excellent as well. Unfortunately, her visit reminded me to review my account again--at which point I discovered three more unauthorized charges made during the months we were not receiving services. I contacted the company a third time to request refunds and expressed my displeasure with their billing practices. I was referred to a manager named Taylor, to whom I explained the situation. Taylor offered to refund only two of the three unauthorized payments, stating that their system required at least one charge to keep the account active. This explanation is unacceptable. Their internal computer system should not result in customers being charged for services not rendered. I made it clear that I expected a full refund and explained that we would continue only if the issue was resolved. Otherwise, we would terminate our business relationship. Taylor was dismissive, spoke over me during the conversation, and was generally unprofessional. As a result, I decided to discontinue doing business with Grade Potential Tutoring. This is disappointing because the tutors themselves were excellent. Unfortunately, the company's billing practices and poor customer service overshadow their good work. I will no longer be using Grade Potential Tutoring and would advise others to proceed with caution unless they are comfortable being billed for services they did not receive. I have since contacted my credit card company, explained the situation, and was promptly reimbursed for the unauthorized charges.

The SLO Literacy Council gives free English lessons all over SLO County. Tutors and students meet…read moreduring set hours in churches, libraries and community centers. I tutored for them for a couple of years and it was really an enjoyable experience. Tutors take a training course over a couple of Saturdays and then volunteer at the location of their choice for 6 months or more. Students are usually recent adult immigrants who want to improve their English speaking and writing skills. This is a really important service for people looking to improve their ability to get along in the United States, to pass the citizenship test, to get a better job, etc. I highly recommend the SLO Literacy Council for anybody who needs to improve their ability to speak, write or read English. I have seen family members taking English lessons together as well as several friends from the same workplace. If you are the owner of a business that employs people with limited English skills then you will definitely want to be aware of the Literacy Council's services. The tutors and site directors are very compassionate and patient, even if the client speaks little or no English. I have seen these services help many people learn to do simple, basic things such as fill out a job application, read to their children in English, read a bus schedule, make a doctor's appointment, etc. Great stuff! Students or prospective tutors can call 805-541-4219 to get started.
