Her positive energy and expertise extends to the tutoring staff - Christina and Rayen have been particularly great! My daughter has been focusing on ACT prep, and has already seen positive results. C2 divides sessions by subject matter (Math/Science, English/Writing), so you truly have an "expert" covering specific material with your child. The tutors have always been flexible when our daughter has requested help with an upcoming test or essay at school. C2 Education's approach to standardized test preparation has increased our daughter's understanding of several academic subjects, improved her organizational/executive functioning skills, and boosted her overall confidence. We renewed with C2 Lincoln Park in December 2017, and look forward to continued improvement in skills and test scores, as well as assistance with the college application process. Thank you, C2!!!

The most successful students in college are the ones that figure this out coming out of high school. There has to be a point to learning a curriculum - better communication, increased creativity, leading innovation, professionalism. These are not notions reserved for adults only, if we promote these notions with our children early, they will rise to the occasion and wow us. I enlisted the help of WWT to help me do that with our kids and supplement (correct) some of the concepts taught in a standard curriculum. I have found Lindsey's philosophy aligned with mine. I want my children to love to learn - about everything. Nowadays, where science and mathematics facts are disputed without regard for the hard work that supports their discovery, it is important that we take a look at how our children are taught to analyze the world. I highly recommend WWT to be your partner in educating your children.

Going into college entrance exam season, it wasn't clear to me what would be the most effective and…read moreefficient way of arming my twin teenage sons with the comfort and skills that would allow them to choose the right test and to perform their best. Each has his own strengths and weaknesses, and their study and learning habits differ vastly. Once Steve met with us and reviewed their baseline untimed scores, he easily guided each of my sons to the test that would elicit the best results, and he confidently assured that tutoring them together would not only meet each boy's individual needs but would enhance each other's learning, by virtue of the group process. Indeed, Steve was exactly right. He helped my kids to put in perspective the importance of these tests and to set goals commensurate with their college choice aspirations. His teaching style elicits discipline and engagement, without instilling undue stress and worry. He's calm and steadfast in his claim that if a person is willing to put in the practice and study time and comes prepared to tutoring sessions, he or she can incrementally improve. He makes the goal score feel accessible, and this helped to keep both of my kids motivated, hard-working and hopeful. The three of them worked together for 24 hours, over 12 sessions, and utilized a variety of materials, including prep books, websites, and group meetings to get them ready for the test. He tracked their progress, keeping me updated throughout, and though he worked with them together, he tailored the lessons to each of my kids. Now that both boys have sat for their chosen test, it's abundantly clear that Steve assessed them accurately, and guided and taught them well. My sons each reached their goal scores, one improving 3 composite points (4 with super score), and the other improving 6 composite points, to do so. Needless to say, both of my kids are pleased with the outcome, as am I, and I suspect this will open doors at schools they might not have considered. From beginning to end, and especially as measured by the results, Steve successfully ushered my kids through what could easily have been a stressful and demoralizing process. He simply understands these tests and how to master them, and we couldn't be happier to have benefitted from his expertise.

My student was already doing well in Math and Reading, but yearned to improve in Science and English. Most other courses or tutors offered full on prep -- very costly and time-consuming. Steve assessed my student's specific needs and provided individualized coaching and resources to help her use her limited time wisely. After only two sessions (about 4 hours total) and some homework, my student's confidence was boosted. Beyond improving an already great composite score by 2 to 3 points overall, specific increases included 4 points improvement in English (from 32 to 36), and a whopping 5-point improvement in Science (31 to 36). Steve was meticulous, positive, and patient. He used a variety of materials, including websites, prep books, and lessons at my home. The resources he has to offer are up-to-date and not stale, which is important since the tests have changed over time. He kept detailed notes on my student's performance to help track improvement and keep me updated. Would definitely recommend.

I took the Blueprint class in October for the December 2013 LSAT. I did extensive research before…read moreselecting Blueprint as the company to help for my LSAT Preparation. Prior to this class I had never opened a LSAT Prep book or even seen what type of questions would be on the LSAT. I was told by others that it is unlike any standardized test I had ever taken. I wanted to start on a clean slate. From the research that I had done, most people who selected Blueprint increased their score by an average of 11 points. The instructors bio on the Blueprint website, which you should check out by the way, also helped in humanizing them and injecting a sense of humor to such a challenging task. Patrick was our instructor for Blueprint Chicago and let me tell you, he is extremely intelligent and patient. Unlike most geniuses who make you feel inferior due to their high acumen and intellect, Patrick was the complete opposite. We learned a lot in this class and had fun doing it. Patrick would come early to answer any questions or stay late just to be sure you really got it. You have to do your part and actually prepare and study outside of class as well, but it was nice knowing that if we have any questions about the homework he would be able to break it down so we could understand where we may have missed something. I actually enjoy Logic Games now, I know it sounds strange but that's how amazing Patrick was in breaking it down and making it enjoyable. I would highly recommend taking the course with Patrick and I am glad he was our instructor because he really was super nice, funny, and patient. I was able to increase my score by more than the 11 point average and I know for a fact that it would not have been possible without Patrick and the Blueprint team. Patrick is an excellent teacher and you will not regret your decision.

It was a solid investment of both my money and, more importantly, my time and efforts. Patrick is a wonderful teacher, mentor, and friend. He genuinely cares about each of his students; he paid attention to our individual needs and concerns in a way that didn't at all take away from the entire group's classroom experience. While very intelligent, Patrick is also extremely patient and down to earth, which really adds to the comfort of the learning environment. Patrick explains the mysterious complexities of LSAT logic in a way that is simple to understand, and he goes out of his way to ensure that everyone has a solid grasp on the material. He's easily accessible by email and phone and always willing to help; nearly every class meeting, Patrick arrived a few minutes early and stayed at least a a few minutes late to answer any questions that hadn't been asked during class. I admittedly didn't always do all of the assigned homework, so I strongly advise that you do it to make sure you're taking full advantage of the class. Try to make it to every lesson, as it's a lot more fun to learn the material with Patrick than it is to study any missed lessons on your own. Also, be sure to check out all the available resources online - the sample problem sets and additional practice tests were tremendously helpful, so I'd recommend doing as many of those as possible. And don't worry about the 4-hour class length. Thanks to Patrick, class goes by a lot more quickly, painlessly, and enjoyably than you'd think.

My daughter started visiting Henry Davis in 2015 (when she was in 2nd grade) on the recommendation…read moreof our educational psychologist. We were baffled by her inconsistent performance and frustrated by her really extreme resistance to even attempting math. Henry's belief that learning can and should be fun has been exactly what she needed. Henry Davis is far more than a tutor. In addition to working on foundational skills and number sense, Henry has helped our daughter enjoy doing math. When she struggles at school and cries "I hate math!" we can remind her that she loves math when doing it with Henry. His use of games paired with an understanding of how math anxiety affects kids has been invaluable in her learning. We have continued seeing him through the years and plan to continue indefinitely. In addition to tutoring for our daughter, we have done math assessment/testing and plan to continue doing so to monitor progress in flagged areas. Henry works well with my daughter's school, writing reports and/or connecting directly as needs. My son also sees Henry on a less frequent basis. While math is not a problem for him, he does work with Henry on the areas of weakness that sometimes prevent him from progressing. My son loves math and excels at it and seeing Henry gives him the opportunity to explore it in ways he doesn't get to in school. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We are very thankful to have found Henry Davis.

She had been at Prairieland since the age of 3 months and even as a real little one was always giddy and thrilled to arrive at daycare, which always comforted me and provided the confidence I needed to continue building my career outside the home. Prairieland is very professionally managed and I've always felt good about the teachers caring for my daughter. The Bumblebee (infant) Room was a little small and high traffic near the cribs -- I never felt like my baby got the full length or quantity of naps she truly needed according to Dr. Weissbluth :) but by the time she was in the Meadowlark (toddler) Room this felt less of a concern. The inadequate sleep could be a phenomenon of daycare in general, however, and Prairieland does many other things right. My husband and I weren't necessarily looking for a Montessori program from the start, but we've become supporters of the concept as we see our baby girl's curiosity, independence, and helpfulness take shape at such an early age.
