What I like: 1. I suspect that a large motivation behind…read morethis business is that they actually care about helping children learn. Where the public school system fails your child by not considering their individual learning needs, Homework Buddy picks up the slack and adapts their teaching style to what your student needs. 2. Because they care, they produce an excellent product. They give you a progess report for every session. This tells you what your student covered, what they struggled with and what they were able to learn in the session. These reports are tailored, not boilerplate. The tutors really report on your child in their own voice. 3. They are affordable, flexible, good communicators and very pleasant to work with. Conclusion: I highly recommend Homework Buddy. You won't be sorry for supporting this business. Homework Buddy has soul. My son knows that his tutors care about his learning, so he's relaxed and able to get the most out of the experience.

I knew it wasn't going to be easy and once I started learning about it, I had no doubt in my mind that I wanted Xander and his team to guide my daughter through this journey.

Thanks for the support and encouragement.

My 7yr old son really enjoys the time spent there.

They are firm with him and allow breaks for him when he's done with primary tasks. He usually finishes most or all of his homework. Once we get home, we can simply spend quality time together instead of arguing over homework. Thank you!

Horrible Horrible! If I could give 0 stars I would…read more My 13 year old went there a few years back for their summer academic program and it was horrible. He told me that they just give out worksheets and don't really help. My son was always a cheery guy but when I enrolled him in middle tree he lost that right away. He was always tired, never wanted to do anything and said the summer camp was just horrible. It was an awful experience. Don't send your kids to middle tree, it won't help them

It's really Covina's new Gem. The fact that they offer classes for all ages is a plus being that I have elementary and high school children. The classes offered are setting my high school child up for success. She is excited about the upcoming Road to college and financial literacy workshop, these are offered at triple the price elsewhere. As soon as you walk in you feel welcomed and know that your child is really in good hands. I look forward to the future of this awesome family oriented business

My older son has advanced significantly in his math work and is now excelling..he even scored two grades above his level on the state test! The confidence and deeper understanding he's gained have been incredible to watch. My younger son, who has a disability and was previously behind in his math, has also benefited tremendously. The instructors have been patient, supportive, and attentive to his individual needs. Thanks to their help, he has not only caught up to his grade level but is now performing at or even above it. The personalized approach and encouraging environment at Mathnasium have made all the difference. I highly recommend it to any parent looking to help their child build strong math skills and confidence!

That transparency made a big difference for us as parents. A special mention to Moses, who leads the center. He is extremely humble, patient, and takes the time to explain things in detail. He has also been incredibly flexible with scheduling. Anytime we needed to reschedule or asked for extra help, he was more than accommodating. He even offered makeup classes over the weekend, which we truly appreciated. The teachers are amazing. Whenever I walk up to them with questions, they are always open, approachable, and happy to explain where my kids stand and how they are doing. Most importantly, my kids come out happy and give very positive feedback about their experience. Overall, we are very pleased with the program and the people here. It is a great place to enroll your kids, and I would highly recommend it to other parents.
