When called ...they said its a subscription service we signed up for where as the first month when we wanted to try the tutoring from them they said they were going to charge for just that month . They never followed up or suggested a new tutor but kept charging month after month. Now when we call them they deny to refund . One word .. this business is not Right .

The tutoring was fine, but THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES ARE NOT! Varsity Tutors has been INCREDIBLY…read moredifficult to work with regarding cancelling the service once my son finished with the tutoring. When you call customer service, they claim they cannot cancel the service and charges. Varsity Tutor customer service insists that they must set an appointment between another Varsity Tutor department and you to cancel the payments going forward even though no further tutoring is being done. Subsequently, they do not honor the appointment times. This has now happened repeatedly. I recommend that you hire a tutor directly and skip the corporate drama.

With only a few months remaining in his school year we started kumon with Miss Lan Ye and Miss Karen. It has been incredible the progress he has made. His reading and sight word recognition improved dramatically. He has now progressed to first grade and is reading at an exemplary level. In addition he is now taking math and has quickly mastered addition problem solving. Their program has been just what we needed to get our son off to the right start! Thank you Lan Ye!

Oops!

I come here a few times a week to work out and take fitness classes. Durham is truly helping those with all the programs offered at the recreational centers. Some classes are free and others have a small fee but everything f is within reason. There's a small gym, basketball court, computer lab, dance studio, and more! The staff at the front aren't always the friendliest but they're there if you need help. You'll have to specifically ask. I personally love the hip hop aerobics class that's offered ... FOR FREE! The instructor is energetic & personable. They have a field directly across & there's always some events/games going on weather permitting. Entering can be a bit tricky as one side is typically gated and you enter through the back & not the front which is street side. Check them out & try a class!

The absolute worst experience of my entire life. This school messed me up. My parents sent me here…read morebecause they wanted me to get into a good college. I only lasted a year and it was for sure the worst year of my life. I developed an anxiety disorder because of this school. Bullying was terrible and one friend of mine texted me years later saying he was so happy I made it out and he made it out too. Absolutely positively not worth the money. Every Tuesday is Chapel (at least when I was there) so the morning is shot. There's prayer before every class. My Latin teacher there told the class the end was near and we better repent. The best thing about the entire place was the Snack Shack (which I don't think is there anymore). There wasn't even a cafeteria just a gym we all ate in separated by a curtain. It is important to note that the instruction or quality of education at this school is not in anyway superior to the of public school. There is just more quantity. So much more quantity. My friends and I all had 8 hours of homework on a regular basis. Maybe less time should be spent on religious stuff and more on in class work so homework isn't piled on. The kids at this school are dangerous. I was assulted. Don't believe that just because it's private there are not drugs. There are more drugs at this school. I ended up going to public middle school and Sanderson high school. I felt the quality of education was the same, and it was free. I did well in public school and I got accepted into UNC Chapel Hill, UNC Greensboro, UNC Pembroke, and WCU. I am doing so much better now. This school was so bad my friend and I say if we made it through this we can make it through anything. Let me reiterate, worst experience of my entire life. Please please please do not send your children here if you care about their happiness or wellbeing. This school will drain it out of them and replace it with religious nonsense. This place is destructive.

We've loved our time in the St. David's lower school so far. The teachers have been warm and caring…read moreand our kids have a blast at the big events like the back to school picnic and field day. The principal has been amazing, always encouraging the kids and so open to having us come in and talk about any concerns even if it's something small. I like that there's tons of natural light in the classrooms and the wiggle chairs are really cool. Looking forward to many more years at this wonderful school!

We've been at Raleigh Oak Charter for a while now and honestly, the community is what keeps us…read morehere. It's a Waldorf school, so there's this rhythm to everything, music and movement in the lessons, art all over the classrooms, festivals throughout the year that the whole school gets involved in. The amount of time they spend outside has made a real difference too. Between the naturalist class and the outdoor time built into every day, my kid gets to move their body and really settle into themselves, like there's something grounding about being outside that a regular classroom just can't offer. The teachers really get to know your child. Ours has stayed with the same class for two years now, and it shows, they pay close attention to my kid as a person, not just academically. There's a real effort toward inclusion here too, every kid feels like they belong. And the other families make it feel like a real community, everyone pitches in with festivals, school events, and volunteering, and it genuinely feels like we're raising these kids together. My kid has grown so much here, more confident, more creative, just happier. If you're looking for a school with a lot of heart, this is it.

Our family has been at ROCS for five years, with our child in elementary grades, and it remains the…read moreright choice for us. What's kept us here isn't just the public Waldorf curriculum, it's the community. This is a school full of families who genuinely show up for each other and their kids. Like any school, ROCS has had real challenges, and I won't pretend otherwise. You'll likely come across strong, emotionally charged opinions from a small number of former families online, amplified well beyond what a handful of voices would normally carry. Weigh that against the fact that the overwhelming majority of us, current families here day to day, have had a completely different experience. Don't take my word for it either. Visit, ask direct questions, talk to current families yourselves before letting anyone else's unresolved feelings make the decision for you. Our five years here have been real community, genuine teacher care, and a school worth staying invested in.

When he went down to Jamaica and became a big shot? That used to be my dream! So when I found out there is actually a school in Raleigh that teach and certify students to be come full fledged bartenders, of course I jump on the first chance I could get. The school is located in a rather compact upstairs room in an office complex off Six Forks Rd, but it sort of give you a real feel of working in a real local, hole-in-the-wall, kind of bar. The instructor for my class is very knowledgeable, being in the business of going on 25 years of bartending, hosting parties, and instructing up and coming young bartenders. There is a solid structure to her method and course work, and always challenge to learn and practice more. I wouldn't be surprised if I can handle myself our there in the Raleigh nightlife after finishing my certification. So remember Coughlin's law: never tell tales about a woman, she'll hear you no matter how far away she is!

The class can be long and challenging to stay on task and Miss Brittany used real experiences to guide the students in an understanding of the driving. Miss Brittany was also my on road instructor and as my third child in the third driving school we found her to be a great provider of support. My daughter took her permit test immediately, 2 days later and passed with flying colors. This school is also less expensive than the other we used for my older daughter. I will use it for my son again next year!
