At 14 months old, she has already begun to recognize and repeat words and phrases in each language. In addition, Carousel's classes have helped her become more focused, attentive, patient, and social. The exercises have improved her fine motor skills, and the curriculum has enhanced her love for music. The teachers at Carousel are as kind and gentle as they are energetic and capable. They are experts not only in their spoken language, but also in how to educate from infancy. The staff are all super responsive and helpful. The owner, Patrizia, treats every child like family. She knows every child's name and is often there to greet us at the front door. My daughter, who normally clings to my side, runs into her arms. She is extremely kind, patient, involved, wonderful with children, and has created an incredible place for them to thrive. I would HIGHLY recommend this place, even for a household that isn't bilingual. It's been incredible for early childhood development.

    -This is my third semester with Parliamo Italiano. Parliamo Italiano is a branch of Hunter College…read morethat offers non-articulated Italian classes.However, certification programs are available. I had previously studied Italian in high school and college, so I took a placement exam prior to registering. Giuseppina (Giuse for short) conducted my placement exam. I feel that I was appropriately placed during my first semester since some topics were refreshers for me, while others were much needed lessons and reviews! -The classes are arranged so that you and your classmates follow the same professor throughout the levels. All professors are native Italian speakers who are quick to correct your pronunciation (thankfully!). My professor Rosanna is amazing. She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to both Italian and English grammar. She can predict the mistakes native English speakers will make in certain grammar structures and explain to the Italian grammar rule before we make the mistake. Rosanna stays on topic when conducting a lesson, but she always interjects little tidbits of helpful information to correct a student that makes an un-related mistake. -The quality of the classes and the lesson formats are amazing. The founder of the program (Franca Lally) created a curriculum that effectively teaches Italian while encouraging conversational practice. The professors strictly adhere to the original curriculum and often include discussions in each of their lessons. The program sends out weekly emails with the following week's lesson for you to print out or view on your device. -Registering with Parliamo Italiano is a pleasant process. Lauren works in the Parliamo Italiano office and has been nothing but a pleasure to work with. She works efficiently and is willing to answer all your questions. -Cons: On occasion, Parliamo Italiano can be disorganized. They are a branch of Hunter College, so some of the classes are held within the Hunter College buildings while others are held at Casa Lally just a few blocks south of Hunter College. There have been about four occasions over the past three semesters in which my professor, classmates and I were left standing a hallway for twenty minutes because our classroom door was locked. My classmates and I have complained to the program each time this has happened. Fortunately, this is the worst complaint I have about the program. Overall, I highly recommend the program! They have an Open House prior to the Fall and Spring semesters, so check it out!

    The philosophy is to make language learning fun, through songs, pleasantries, snacks, and fun…read more After one semester, however, I have come to see it as glorified babysitting, 2 hours for me to have a browse in the Upper East Side shops. Mandarin Chinese is supposed to be hard, not fun. Many key concepts are painful to grasp. Yes there is a need for rote memorization. This class, I felt, obfuscated the truth about how Chinese is truly a difficult language. My seven year old picked up some words for colors and fruits in a beginning class filled with a four year old and a nine year old, none of them native speakers. However, no pain, no gain. They felt no pain, but they also did not learn much of value. SInging is singing. Singing may lead to some learning, but there is a need to sit down and write some characters out. I feel that did not happen. $800 for a semester. The teacher was a very nice person, no doubt. However, I think this program just gives an illusion that you are doing something for your child.

    I feel I must chime in here. Although everyone's experience will be different based on different…read moreteachers, as well as different expectations, I don't agree with the one-star reviews. My 15-month-old daughter and I attend the mommy & me French class on Lexington & 66th, and I can't say enough wonderful things about the program. My daughter's teacher, Jennifer, is a French native who is charming, charismatic, energetic, and patient with all of the young children. I find myself also having fun and expanding my French tongue. From the moment we walk in the door to the moment we leave, everyone is friendly and warm towards my daughter and myself. The best part is that in a very short time, she is picking up the language. They must be doing something right!!

It's not accessible; you have to go up stairs to enter. The restrooms are gender binary and downstairs. There is a kitchen but the sink doesn't work at the moment. Parking in this neighborhood is difficult, but it's not far from buses and subways. You don't have to be Hungarian to book an event here. I'm taking a star off because it can be difficult to get in touch with them. In my experience, they do not answer the phone number listed on Google, nor do they respond to voicemail, email, or FB messenger. The only way to reach them is by calling the custodian's cell phone (by the way, I would be happy to be proven wrong; if they see this review and reach out to to me, I'll update here)!

They also have an extensive American-Hungarian Library. My own personal experience with the Hungarian House was a very pleasant 8-week course in the Hungarian language, a few years ago. I had a lot of fun, but wished I knew more people with which to practice. The old saying, "What you don't use, you lose" is exactly what happened.

    I was looking for a math tutor to prepare for the GREs. I had not done math in over 10 years and,…read morecoming from the arts, the math I did do was very basic. I am so grateful to have found Brian and to have had numerous intensive lessons with him before the exam. I have been teaching for a long time myself, and I can say first hand that Brian is an amazing teacher. Not only was he attentive to my specific mathematical needs, I could also tell he was very invested in wanting me to do well. Brian never made me feel like anything was too difficult or unattainable. He explained all my questions in depth and was always very concerned with making sure I understood everything. Even if that meant going over it again...and again. Brian helped me make diagrams for a statistics research project I was working on as part of my degree in Psychology. I was later asked to present that project at a honors convention my college was hosting. I am sure that his elaborate graphs/diagrams and extensive knowledge in statistics which he imparted contributed to that. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, fluent in every math concept known to man, enthusiastic, patient, efficient, eloquent and kind tutor--look no further. Brian was so instrumental to my success on the GREs and in boosting my confidence. I never thought I would be able to comprehend half the concepts I did. I strongly recommend Elite Ivy Tutors and Brian if you are looking to invest in a tutor. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job.

She's very picky about things but I figured it couldn't hurt. Fast-forward three months later, and she improved 450 points on her test score and her confidence is through the roof. Worth every penny.
