Ever since my youngest struggled in first grade I have sent all my kids to Kumon. I credit Kumon…read morefor teaching my kids to read, write and do math. Each student progresses at their own speed and accuracy. Kumon math doesn't cover geometry but I believe their coursework does go up to calculus. Your child goes to the Kumon learning center twice per week for about 30 minutes per subject. They are given Kumon homework to do at home every day. Your child may not like it but a little daily practice will truly add up to academic success in their future. Kumon is a franchise so if you move you can do Kumon in your new location as well. The instructors and owners are very skilled, organized and friendly.

I had been studying for the GMAT for a few months before I came to Simply Brilliant. While I tested…read morewell at home in practice exams I choked in the testing center. It was obvious that I lacked both an effective strategy and correct mindset to tackle this very important component to my MBA application. Stuart was incredible. He's able to teach the GMAT in an easy digestible format. He tailored our sessions to tackle my weaknesses, showing me techniques that helped me save time and increase accuracy. Most of all Stuart was extremely encouraging and positive throughout our time together. It's obvious he cares about his students. For me that made all the difference. I was accepted to some exceptional programs and have enrolled at UNC Chapel Hill Kenan-Flagler Business School with a full tuition scholarship. I'm thrilled at my results and it's largely thanks to Stuart. I would recommend Simply Brilliant to anyone who is looking for GMAT success!

Donna has been tutoring my 8 year old daughter in reading for about 2 years and math for over 1…read moreyear. We have seen tremendous progress, particularly in reading. My daughter has an IEP and gets daily pull-outs for help at school, but her doctor suggested that we also supplement with tutoring. Before my daughter started tutoring, she was very frustrated and didn't even want to try to read. Now she is confident and excited to read, and not afraid to try. We are very happy with how her reading level has increased since we started tutoring. ​My daughter has also increased her math skills. If you are looking for a tutor for your elementary-age child, I would highly recommend her.
