My son Cameron started Kumon when he was in first grade, over five years ago. Since then he has always been in the top of his class for math and reading. My daughter Eden started in kindergarten four years ago and she is currently dividing and multiplying fractions and she is also reading close to a seventh grade level. From the very beginning it was clear how much Priti and her husband care about their work and making a real difference in the academic lives of the children they work with. Numerous times they have made special arrangements to get together with my son who is working on very challenging algebra that my wife and I are no longer able to help him with. Priti's husband has gone out of his way to spend countless hours with the kids and also privately advising us about all the things we can do to prepare them for the SAT and future collegiate plans. I have been moved by the amount of passion they have to help kids succeed. If you're serious about education and giving your kids a leg up in our fiercely competitive academic atmosphere, I would highly recommend checking these guys out.

I always try to leave honest reviews based on my experiences, and unfortunately our experience at…read morethis swim school was disappointing. I hope sharing what happened helps other parents make an informed decision. My child was a complete beginner. After only his third swim lesson, one of the coaches loudly said, "He's everything but nowhere near ready." My child heard the comment. Whether the coach intended it that way or not, saying something like this loudly within earshot of a young beginner is discouraging and unprofessional. Beginners are there to learn, and feedback should be constructive, especially for young children. As the weeks went on, a different coach was assigned to my child, and things initially improved. Then, without much explanation, my child was moved up to the next level. I wasn't concerned about him advancing quickly. In fact, I would have been perfectly happy for him to stay at his current level longer. My priority is that he truly masters the skills required for each level before moving on. The promotion felt rushed, and no one clearly explained why he was ready. The communication afterward was equally disappointing. We were told by one swim manager to change to a different class time because of the level change. When we returned, another swim manager looked at the schedule and told us we were "supposed to be in the 12:30 class but didn't come and wanted to change the schedule," making it sound as though we had caused the problem, even though we were simply following the instructions given to us by their own staff. When I asked which coach my child would have, I was met with a sarcastic response: "You don't remember the last coach you were with?" This was a perfectly reasonable question because my child had just moved to a new level, and I knew coach assignments could change. What made this interaction especially disappointing was that the parent immediately before us had asked the same question and was answered politely and cheerfully. When I asked, I received a sarcastic response instead. The contrast in how we were treated was difficult to ignore and left me feeling unwelcome and disrespected. Things became even more uncomfortable when my child was initially assigned to one coach, who audibly sighed upon seeing the assignment. He was then reassigned twice before ultimately ending up with the same coach who had previously made the "nowhere near ready" comment. During that lesson, I watched closely because my child was visibly anxious. The coach seemed impatient and dismissive. At one point, he aggressively pulled up the sleeve of my child's rash guard instead of calmly helping him. My child would try to communicate, but the coach often seemed more focused on getting him to comply than listening to what he was trying to say. Unfortunately, this wasn't an isolated observation. Throughout the program, I saw other coaches lose their patience with young children as well. I witnessed coaches speaking to children in irritated tones, yelling instructions while children were already crying, and continuing to push them instead of helping them calm down and regain confidence. I understand that teaching swimming requires firmness and that safety is the priority, but there is a significant difference between being firm and showing little empathy toward frightened beginners. Swimming is not just about teaching strokes. It's about building confidence and trust, especially for young children who may already be nervous in the water. Patience, encouragement, and kindness are just as important as technique. We completed the program because it had already been paid for, but this experience left us disappointed. We will not be returning and will be looking for a swim school where young beginners are treated with more patience, empathy, respect, and professionalism.

I was looking for a tutor for my children. My son who is in the 4th grade was actually failing math and he felt so bad because he just couldnt get it. He needed more instruction time. I had the hardest time teaching him common core math. Since I have been using whiz tutor, my son's grades in all of his subjects have improved. He got his report card this week and he got an A- in math!!!! I nearly cried!! My youngest in 2nd grade and my 5th grader have outstanding grades as well in all subjects because of whiz tutor. Thank you so much! I am extremely grateful and my kids are so happy and now they believe they too can get good grades!! read more
