We have been working with Cardinal for several years for both tutoring and college preparation…read more Their approach is absolutely phenomenal; I originally reached out for their help with my daughter's application to a local private school last minute. They were an absolute godsend in helping me honestly understand what was involved in the process, getting my young daughter prepared, and help drafting some statements from interviews. They really know how to partner with families and come alongside and provide the guidance and preparation needed. We get also math tutoring from them for 2 daughters, and the tutors are so familiar with the school's teachers, approach and curriculum that it's more like private instruction than tutoring. The big win is working with them for our senior's college application process. It was a huge investment, and at first we weren't sure about the cost. But now that we see the full picture of services they offer, it's well worth it, and such an investment into our child's future. What's invaluable, is the way they are teaching her how to think and function like an executive. The level of planning, idea generating, and execution is unlike anything I' ve ever seen. Cardinal has brought in an entire team to support our daughter's complicated college application process so that she is advised, guided and cheered on every step of the way. It's about a lot more than simply getting her into the college of her dreams. They are teaching her how to plan out a future goal, work harder than she ever has, revise 7+ times and keep revising. Improving math grades, choosing classes, how to present herself as a unique individual who can contribute meaningfully. I'm blown away by their services!

We have used Cardinal Education for five years, and it has been a God-send for our family. The…read moretutoring has made a huge difference for both our kids, in their classes and with standardized tests. Our older child ended up with 5's on 6 AP's and top subject and ACT test scores. Our other child improved from a 26 on the practice test to a 33 on her first ACT sitting -- astounding. Their college admission service is well-organized and well conceived, very comprehensive. And Allen Koh has a certain genius in this arena and works hard to stay at the forefront of the field. They work extremely hard to find creative ways to help position your child while still staying true to his/her identity.

We've had a wonderful experience with this tutoring center. They are incredibly responsive,…read moreproactive, and easy to work with. I also really appreciate that we're only charged for the sessions we actually use -- no pressure or unnecessary commitments. Most importantly, my daughter's tutor, Amelie, has been amazing. My daughter is in 5th grade and started tutoring because she was behind in reading, spelling, and writing, and she needed extra support from someone other than mom or dad. Homework at home was often a struggle, so it says a lot that she genuinely likes Amelie and actually looks forward to her sessions. In fact, we were running late once and my daughter was very upset because she didn't want to be late to tutoring -- something I never thought I'd see! Seeing her excited about learning has been incredible, and that wouldn't have happened without Amelie's patience, encouragement, and ability to connect with her. We're so grateful for the progress we've seen and highly recommend this tutoring center, especially Amelie.

She is kind, patient, and truly knows how to engage him and spark his interest in learning, especially with writing. She consistently comes up with creative and new ways to teach concepts in a way that feels approachable and motivating rather than overwhelming. Amelie is an excellent communicator, both with our son and with us as parents, and keeps us thoughtfully informed about his progress. She is also very flexible with scheduling, which we deeply appreciate. We are so grateful for her support and highly recommend her.

She gave him the skills he needed to read at grade level or higher with confidence. Although they've never met in person, they have a special connection. We can't say enough positive things about our experience with A Love of Learning.

Anne started as our tutor in Fall of 2019, in person. When things shut down in March 2020 due to…read moreCovid, Anne transitioned to video sessions and maintained a sense of consistency and caring. We have continued Zoom tutoring with Anne since then, on our usual twice weekly schedule. When we were seeing Anne in person, she had a lovely tutoring space - open, clean, calm, with books & art supplies and a nice large desk to share with her tutee. She was on track with time, positive and insightful in assessing our daughter's academic needs and progression, and always a kind, warm presence. Anne is a competent and knowledgeable tutor, keeping our daughter on track and adjusting as needed. So grateful we have her in our lives.

My 15 year old son has been taking classes with Juni for over a year…read more We have been extremely happy with his instructors, he had two amazing instructors. Both instructors are highly qualified.. Both instructors always motivated and challenged him focusing on keeping his interest on their sessions with him - my Son has been coding on his own with the work they assign him throughout the week which is a big plus.. Furthermore, the customer service is phenomenal, professional and responds to my questions and concerns if any arraise promptly ( which is very important to me) .. That said, I would like to personally thank Ashley in Customer service who always goes above and beyond with helping me.. The customer service and highly qualified instructor's that are provided by Juni are the reason I would not hesitate to sign my kids to this great company. Thank you Juni!

During that time, they still charged us $275.00 for the month of August! Yet we had ZERO lessons that month. Every time i ask when we will get a tutor, i get told that they can't locate any. What sort of company is this? When we first joined JUNI, a year ago, we were assigned a tutor fairly quickly. But then we dropped him because he would cancel at the last minute about 1 out of every 4 classes. That was ridiculous! The only reason i went back to JUNI in August was because my son enjoys their course. However. it's definitely time for us to find another source of coding classes. BUYER BEWARE

From my son who is a Senior at Sequoia HS:…read more At first I didn't know if I wanted a college counselor at my mom's request but Ryan exceeded all my expectations and I don't regret a thing. I was lost during the beginning of my senior year and Ryan guided me through everything. Making a college list to start and explaining the college process, the different portals, and of course the supplementals. This was just the start. From working with Ryan I was already able to get comfortable with the college apps process and the timeline which would leave me with the least amount of stress. College apps is a stressful time and experience but he helps you throughout and ensures that you will meet every deadline. On top of all that is his help on your essays. He first helps explain the prompt and brainstorms various ideas with you. He revises and looks over every essay, giving edits and feedback from an experienced perspective. He helps you boost your activities list to make sure it's the best it can be, and it has descriptions that college admission officers will like. I really am glad I had Ryan as my college tutor and only knowing him from the beginning on August, I feel like we got lots of work done through his guidance. Easily 5 stars

Christine Southgate guided our family, patiently, professionally, thoughtfully and smoothly through…read morethe boarding school process. We live in Reno, NV and have many fewer options for counselors here than in the Bay Area. We had just one in person meeting, then worked remotely for the rest of the year. After meeting with our family, getting to know our son and hearing what our son and we were looking for, she helped us to devise a list of schools that she felt would be a good match. We then researched her list, had follow up calls and discussed a few more and worked together to narrow down the list of schools that we planned to visit. We spoke only a few times throughout the process, but at each juncture, she listened to our concerns and guided us. Christine reviewed our son's essays, gave suggestions and communicated with the schools we were considering. In almost every admissions office the fact that we were being guided by Christine had a real and positive effect. They sung her praises. We could not have been more happy with a counselor than we were with Christine and would highly recommend her services.

She made no mention that out of a class size of about 80 12-17 of those kids would be international boarders, primarily from Asian countries who often reclassify when they enter 9th gr. Another thing she left out about priory is it draws a fair number of Asians frompaloalto and losaltos hills. She also failed to mention that it is known for being open ti accepting the quirky and socially awkward kids. My child is none of these things. I think she needs to update her info on each high school to more accurately reflect their current student body, not the one her daughter experienced at Priory 1-2 decades ago.
