After starting with a different (and expensive) college counselor located in Santa Monica and SAT…read moretutor (expensive) who both came highly recommended but were essentially completely useless, we received a glowing recommendation for Blue Train and made the switch. Best decision ever. Our two sons used Blue Train for multiple things over their junior and senior years - test assessment/diagnostic, ACT prep and guidance, college list building, guidance re HS classes and even extra curricular advise, as well as navigating the college application process and the all-important essay drafting. Scott and the people at Blue Train put the boys on a very manageable schedule and in fact, both of our sons were totally done with most applications by Thanksgiving. Both boys got into tons of schools, got thrown tons of money, and this entire process was so smooth because of Blue Train's guidance. We event consulted with Scott when deciding which schools to attend. I cannot say enough how effective and impressive Blue Train was. Highly recommend !!!

I've referred several friends to them and my friends have all been really happy.

They communicate very well. Great service all in all. Thank you for the great service.

She has also gained more confidence, her instructor is very positive and encouraging. They are extremely flexible with hours/scheduling. I can always text them for a quick and easy communication rather than calling and playing phone tag. After every session I get an e-mail with notes from her instructor sharing what they covered in the lesson and how it went with a list of things she did well and things she can continue to practice. Also, the sessions are easy to use and set up, it's just a link to click in an e-mail instead of downloading or installing Zoom or any other platform on the device. If I want them to cover any specific homework assignment, workbook, skill or even state testing practice they incorporate that into the session for us. I would highly recommend them!

He seemed to have this unique ability to understand why this young woman was having difficulty and he tried several different approaches which ultimately one of them worked. She was able to understand and do the problems on the worksheet. But in addition to showing her the way to do the problems he also instilled in her the confidence she needed. That she could do it.

When I told that we dont want to opt in field trip , they asked me pick up my son at 1pm! Inspite of me paying full day fees.

I averaged about $400 per week including material (which they made me pay full even for 3 weeks) and he didnt even have much to do for all day. Extremely unhappy 1 star is for the studies.

The nice thing about Quest is that they have several electives that kids can choose from.

As we wrap up week 3 of our experience with Eggheads Learning Academy, I wanted to thank you for…read morethe perfect match with Lauren. She's making great progress with great nephew, and his Mom. Due to the pandemic, he did not attend preschool. And while he is very smart, he had problems adjusting to being in kindergarten, surrounded by strangers. We felt the school wasn't doing enough to help him with his separation anxiety so we took matters into our own hands. I reached out to 3 tutoring companies and Eggheads Learning Academy stood out. I approached each with the same concerns: 1. We need help pencil control and phonics 2. We need help helping him The other companies just wanted to focus on the academics. But Alenni was interested in my nephew as a person. Her 'mom' personality immediately leapt forward and we conversed that day about helping his whole being. Through multiple calls, texts and emails, she said she found the best match for him. And she was so right! In just 3 weeks, Lauren has helped him find his voice. He's interacting with his teacher and classmates in ways he never did before Miss Lauren came into his life. Lauren has also helped my niece to see her son is normal for his age and to celebrate the progress he has made in this short time of tutoring. Each small step has brought us to this point, 3 weeks later, where he actually told Miss Lauren, "Goodbye. I'll see you Tuesday." As compared to him saying "Goodbye" the second she arrived, and walking her to the door. I am forever grateful for finding Eggheads Learning Academy .

If I could give more than 5 stars to Eggheads, I would. After a year of virtual learning due to…read morecovid, we decided to hire a tutor for the summer. We wanted to give him the opportunity to gain skills in math and reading comprehension - we knew virtual school wasn't cutting it. Alenni was referred to us and we immediately felt she was the best fit. Our son was engaged during sessions and gaining skills. Alenni is kind and calm and has a way of explaining things that make sense. It's a personalized experience too - not a "one size fits all" program like some of the bigger corporate programs. We are so pleased we decided to continue with Alenni through the school year and beyond. It is so nice not arguing over homework or getting frustrated because I can't explain things in a way that make sense to him (Common Core is tough for me). If you are searching for a tutor, you really don't need to look any further. :)

I needed to take an exam locally and selected Quality Tutoring becase they had the soonest available test date and time. I studied really hard all night and early morning and on my way to the test center I quickly searched for my conformation e-mail. I pulled it up and read it and read that you need to print out a copy of the conformation and bring it with you as they do not allow cell phones in the test center. I panicked because who prints things anymore and there were no places I knew off the top of my head that I could print a piece of paper at and if there were places that I could print at they opened after 9 a.m. I decided to calm down and just show up and see what happens and I'm happy to report, they never once asked to see the conformation e-mail, they just asked for my name and test I was taking and my ID. There was one young woman and you man working. The young man escorted me to the locker where I was instructed out all my belongings in the locker, even my car keys. Shortly after I was ushered to my computer station and began my test. The room I was in was quiet and had no other testers in there at the time. I was able to focus and complete my test without any distractions. I passed my test, gathered my belongings from the locker and dropped the key off at the front desk and was on my way. If I needed to test again I would come back here as it was a pleasant experience and the staff were very polite and efficient.
