As a tutor, it can be difficult to find families to work with, which is why I began working with…read moreJanie. As it turned out, I signed up for more than just a company. Janie is incredibly supportive as a supervisor and always makes sure that I am able to do my best work. In terms of the families she works with, Janie's care and attention to each family is outstanding. Each time a tutor has completed a session with a student, the tutor writes a report that Janie reads in detail and sends to the caregivers of the student. She is really kept in the know of each student and keeps herself involved in their learning. She is in constant communication with parents and is always making sure that the student's individual learning is going smoothly.

I taught for several tutoring companies while in New York. None of them gave the level of quality,…read morecare, and trust Janie provides. Parents spoke highly of her communication and customer care. I can say only the most positive things about her as a supervisor - she really let me flourish as a tutor even more than I could do when I was in a classroom. She was open to ideas, gave guidance when necessary, really runs an A+ company. I would recommend Study Shack to any parent seeking quality instruction for their child, no matter the grade or subject, and would recommend it to any teacher looking for a home to provide tutoring services.

I absolutely recommend Ivy tutors! They are very professional, helpful, the best at what they do…read more My daughter started her SHSAT prep with a different tutor only for 2 lessons and was not happy and did not feel it was helping her . Then we switched to Ivy tutors and her tutor Teresa was wonderful. Not only she fully analyzed what my daughter needed to be successful , she supported her in every way to achieve the goal . My daughter aced the test and got into her 1st choice school. We are definitely coming back when my younger daughter is in 7th grade !

I highly recommend Mark B, especially for kids struggling with timed standardized tests (ACT, SAT)…read more Mark is extremely resourceful, skilled, and engaging. My son immediately grew attached and I often heard laughter coming from his room during sessions. He does give a lot of homework, however, we are grateful as long gone are the days when Kaplan or Princeton classes en masse were sufficient. Ivy also helped us understand the process of test taking, college admission and preparation. They have proven excellent guides at creating opportunities for our son we hadn't considered, eg working in a lab, opening a business, helping our kid use his creativity, interests and ideas to best advantage. This is a low pressure company that tailors its services to your needs and worth every penny.

Talha has been tutoring my brother for a few years now and he has been a tremendous help. My…read morebrother started with B's and C's and Talha helped him get to straight A's. Not only did he help him raise his grades but also helped him enjoy studying and learning more. Since he started tutoring my brother, it also helped my brother gain more confidence in his own intelligence and work. My brother has taken on numerous AP classes and has done well on this SATs and ACTs. Talha is extremely comprehensive with all his lessons and very communicative with us. He also is skilled in tutoring across a variety of subjects, including AP classes, SATs and ACTs. He's a great tutor and would definitely recommend him to everyone!

We have used City Smarts with both of our children, who have very different personalities and…read morelearning styles. All of the City Smarts tutors were excellent -- not just in their expertise and knowledge of the tests, but in connecting with our kids on many levels -- including emotionally and academically. City Smarts takes great care in pairing the right tutor with your child. These tutors were somehow able to inspire our kids to study and do practice tests, on top of an already-demanding school workload. With City Smarts' help, our kids never lost sight of the fact that these tests are just one tool among many in the high school application process. Their whole approach is level-headed and holistic, and they managed to reduce the stress and insanity that the NYC school-search can engender. Separate from their tutoring services, I also recommend their individual consulting in your search for the best schools (private and/or public) for your child. It's not cheap but we found it was money well-spent. They take a real interest in learning about your child and figuring out what will best serve him/her/them. We've sent many friends to City Smarts and they've all been so impressed with their tutors and their kids have all gone on to great schools where they're thriving. We highly recommend City Smarts!

City Smarts came in with patience, grace and talent to help get her back on track. They were collaborative with her teachers as well as flexible with our schedule. Their talented team was able to not only get her back to grade level, but also repair her relationship with math! While they are known for their ability to help kids with striving for new heights of achievement, they are just as capable and wonderful with getting kids back on track. Thank you to the City Smarts team!

Very quickly, on their site, I was able to watch a selection of tutors pitch their skills. One tutor in particular stood out for me; I called Becky who runs Successful Students and within a few days my son was having private classes with this tutor. Needless to say the tutor was excellent - my son worked with him online weekly for 5 months and established some excellent writing habits and skills. Becky and Danielle managed billing and communication with a consistent professionalism and ease. I am very grateful and I would definitely recommend Successful Students!

We are so thrilled to have found Academy of Excellence for our 3 year old son, Alden. It has been a…read morefantastic place for him to flourish socially, and, as his first school-like setting, has shown that school is a supportive and happy place to be. Dorota and her team of teachers and assistants are warm, flexible and understanding. They go the extra mile in every sense of the phrase, even hosting special guests throughout the year and inviting parents to visit for special events so we can share and celebrate what our children are doing at school. The pre school curriculum seems like a perfect balance of learning and play. Our son has learned SO much this past year that I attribute almost entirely to AOE. At 3.5, he knows all his letters, numbers, is writing his name clearly, and is drawing pictures of people and objects. He comes home nearly every day with something new to share, and over the course of his first year there, the impression that learning and is exciting and fun. The kids also spend a good part of the day playing and working together and I have seen our son blossom socially because of this. We truly couldn't ask for anything more from a preschool.
