My 9 years old daughter just had our first meeting with Heidi. The reason we signed my daughter up…read morewith the tutoring center is because my daughter just switched school and we want her to do well in the new school. Heidi is amazing!! During the 30 minutes we met with her, she was able to point out all the important things that we can do to make learning fun and exciting. My daughter felt so comfortable with Heidi and was able to carry a very meaningful conversation during the 30 minutes. I also feel that she really cares about her students. Our first lesson is tomorrow with Ms. Heidi and we cannot wait!!! We also talked to Mike before signing my daughter up for the program and Mike is very knowledgeable and willing to share his knowledge!!

My daughter started with Engenious Learning Center in Almaden about a month ago. She is in the…read morefirst grade and we wanted some extra support for her, especially in reading. She is not fond of academics at this stage, but she has expressed to us that she really enjoys going to her "tutoring". We have already seen an improvement in her reading and focus.

We approached Elite SAT through a friend's referral, but it wasn't until we went through the…read moreprocess ourselves that we truly understood why it came so highly recommended. Elite SAT prep focuses on an individualized plan tailored to each student's needs. What impressed us most was that the Director, Ms Chiu offered consultations and guidance, taking the time to plan with us from the beginning to end. This level of involvement and personalized support helped my son achieved a 1570 on the Fall SAT. We're thankful.

My older son took the Elite Prep SJ Summer SAT program a few years ago. It prepared him well for…read morehis SAT. He became a National Merit Scholarship finalist and got 1580 on SAT. Although he ended up going to UCB which is test blind, but he also got in other top schools that do care about SAT scores. My younger son who was applying for high school, used Elite Prep's tutoring service to help him prepare for the High School Placement Test (HSPT). He was in the 70-80 percentile range when he first started taking the diagnostic exam, and he ended up getting 99 percentile on the actual test. He got in his #1 choice high school. Elite's test prep programs are not magic. It's not like you pay, then boom, you are guaranteed with high scores and admissions to top schools. The student has to be highly motivated, and put in lots of time, effort and sweats. Elite is there to guide the students and they know what they are doing, but they can't make "magic" happen if the student doesn't do their portion of hard work. For example, both of my boys did 4-6 months of test prep on their own with weekly practices, in addition to Elite's programs. That's what it took to reach their academic goals.

My daughter is attending tutoring sessions with Henry for AP Chemistry. She met with Henry at the…read moreend of her fall semester AP Chemistry course. Before they met, Henry asked my daughter to make a list of topics that she wanted to review from the fall semester. During their first meeting, Henry reviewed the topics that my daughter needed more help in and explained to her his plan. Afterwards, Henry spoke with me about his approach to review the topics from the fall semester and build upon them to learn new concepts for the spring semester. Henry is efficient and flexible in recognizing what my daughter needs help in. She says that he uses real life instances to illustrate a concept such as equilibrium to make it relatable. Henry has a lot of experience in tutoring the AP STEM courses.

My son was really struggling with learning to read. We started him at sylvan a few weeks before he…read morestarted first grade. Now, after roughly 3 months not only is he finding it much more enjoyable to learn to read, but he's even one of the more advanced readers in his class. I've seen improvements in his handwriting. His spelling is still pretty bad, but he went from refusing to even attempt to write anything to now he is at least willing to sound things out and write things out phonetically. His only complaint about some of the tutors is that they make him do his work (which is exactly their job- I would not be as happy if they were not doing that), but overall he likes everyone there.

We only just started at Sylvan, but I'm already raving about it…read more For one, the center director, Mr Peter Delucchi, is absolutely the most understanding, accommodating guy ever. He's truly a treasure, I wish more people who work with kids had his warm, practical and sympathetic approach. But honestly, every person we've met at Sylvan has been wonderful. My daughter was a little reluctant to get started since Math isn't her forte, though she's remarkably gifted when it comes to anything language related. Nonetheless, with a lot of support, she's now doing better and better. So happy to have found Sylvan, if you're in any way doubting whether this is the place for your child, I suggest you give them a call and set up a meeting, because you really have to see it to believe it :)

My son was a 10th grader when he joined C2, and I didn't know much about American college…read moreadmissions or SAT prep. The center director was able to help me so much with providing me all the counseling about college applications and other requirements (subject tests, AP exams, COSMOS, Stanford summer camp, etc). My son now is a senior and he got accepted to UCLA and Berkeley. The C2 SAT worked for my son, it helped preparing him with the SAT test content and the teachers there helped him with test taking strategies. After I told the center director I want to have to more updates on what my son does in the center, she emailed me long detailed report of what he does every week with teachers' comments. For learning progress, you just gotta ask. I really appreciate C2 Education, and we spent two years here. It works and it's worth.

A very bad educational center for your kids. It is not a honesty educational center. Don't sign…read moreup for it!!! Don't trust their Ads and promotion! Don't pay for high hour package even it may be cheaper! Once you pay, you have no way to back it out and very little refund for you according to their refund policy. The center changes their staff very often(less than 3 months) that you have no control of their quality. In addition, the center would not provide you online account for you to keep track on your hours. You have no way to check on your hours after couple weeks in their system unless you keep asking the center and end up you be cheated on your hours. It happened to me. Because of referral and C2 education promotion on March 2018, I signed my kids up for 50hrs program(couple thousand dollars) with Christin. This month, C2 changed all their staffs and my promotion credit(new sign up and referral credits) got deleted in their system. I have not able to get the promotion credit back with their new director, Tom and my kids are not comfortable to go to this center for tutoring anymore even I still have 2/3 of 50 hours package remaining. I strongly advise people not to sign up for this C2 center!!! It is a very bad unfaithful tutoring center !!! Here is my advice for the current C2 family due to staff change often in C2: 1) Confirm and use your promotion credit ASAP. The center may delete it without letting you know. New staff will not honor your promotion credit !!! 2) Get hard copy of your hour confirmation! Different new staff will tell you different story. Especially when you cancel the class, ask for confirmation email for your record. 3) Make sure all ads promotion written in your contract. Get hard copy of credit hour as confirmation. 4) The C2 center change tutors often and may hire part time student as tutor. It is very hard for customer to control their tutoring quality. I got feedback from my kid that it is not very helpful depends on subjects. One or two math problems could make you spend two tutoring hours to solve for it. 5) Don't sign up for this C2 center!!! It is a very bad unfaithful tutoring center !!!

On the very first day, my 6yo son was feeling very anxious and refused to go in without his emotional support Pikachu. Ms. B immediately drew him in by asking about his Pikachu, and she printed him out a personalized Pokémon-themed activity sheet with his name on it by the time I picked him up that afternoon! Every day he came home with a cool activity he did that day and had stories about a bunch of other things he did. And at the end of the week he came home with a folio full of a ton of educational materials related to what he learned that week. I was seriously impressed. After summer was over, my son talked about how he wanted to go again next year. So, needless to say, we signed up again for this summer!

Although the exercises can seem repetitive, they're helping him develop routine, patience, and resilience, all while preparing him for kinder in just a few short weeks!

Michael helped my son to not only get through that course, but also to be prepared for calculus this year, where he is succeeding remarkably. Additionally, Michael offered general advice and specific practice techniques for the SAT, and he shared his expertise on essay writing, both for the exam and for college applications. Michael has been very flexible and understanding in addressing our questions and concerns, and is both professional and friendly to work with. While he charges more than some private home tutors you might find on Craigslist, he is a full-time professional tutor who charges comparably to, or less than tutoring centers. We definitely value the added convenience of having him come straight to our home at times that meet our schedule. We have enjoyed working with Michael and look forward to working with him again as our son prepares for college next year, and can strongly recommend him for any parents concerned about their child's progress in math, science, or preparing for college.

It went so well, I hired Michel to tutor my daughter who was on an IEP (auditory process disorder and speech delay) and struggles with any new task. I never told Michael she was disabled because I did not want a different style than he provided my son. I was worried for my daughter at first because I saw nothing in his review about how he worked with kids with special needs and my daughter was so behind in math. He started tutoring her well over three year ago and we saw such an amazing transformation in her math work and grades in just 3 months. My daughter was quiet and somewhat stubborn and yet he had the patience to work with her 2-3 times a week (1-2 hours a day). Maya just graduated from Willow Glen she will attend University of CA Dominican this fall, and her math placement test work placed her in highest entry for freshman math. We feel very lucky and blessed to have had Michael on our side. Thank you, Michael, for all you have done for my family!! You are doing the right work, you rock we couldn't have done this without you.
