It was divine appointment that we found Mr. Test Prep. I…read morealmost never use Yelp anymore to search for anything (sorry, yelp!) but I came on here just to see if there was any SAT prep service that could help my son. He had already sat for the SAT in his 10th grade, and had a decent 1550 score, but we wanted to see if he could improve it. Mr. Test Prep's approach and clear value proposition really stood out to me in the sea of the multitude of tutors and SAT prep services. We gave it a try, our son Ethan loved Michael's style, and format, and it was a good fit for our family's needs all around. Ethan sat for the SAT again in a few months of working with Michael, and his score was perfect. Of course, everyone's mileage may vary. For us , it was a match made in heaven :) Thanks, Michael

My husband and I are grateful to Michael Romano for his help in the SAT test prep process. We…read morehighly recommend Michael with no hesitation! Michael took a highly cumbersome and stressful SAT prep process and gave my son and daughter the tools they needed to excel -- both looked forward to Michael's test prep sessions! Michael has a very special process in working with students to reduce the anxiety and stress associated with the SAT and ACT tests. His style of instruction really worked well for my son and daughter during the testing period. They were able to perform at their best level. Michael made the process super fun and helped to fuel their motivation to do their best. He was always available for a phone call if we had any questions, and we appreciate his willingness to help. We are so happy to have found Michael. Previously, we went to another test prep provider who said there was no difference in taking the SAT or ACT. She once had my daughter in tears based on her pushy approach. After the first session, Michael knew the SAT was a better choice for them. Choosing the SAT had a very significant impact on their score. Thank you, Michael for being a great teacher and mentor! Our only regret is that we wish we found Michael sooner. My husband and I give him our highest recommendation!

I would have never imagined he could get the perfect score of 36 after only a couple of months. I am so glad we made the decision to join Zenith. I highly recommend Zenith! Their program is really impressive: they characterize the general rules that are easy to understand; and drilled into each problem that my son missed and pinpointed a particular rule that he needed to work on. Thank you so much, Zenith, for improving my son's score to perfection.

Nothing can't stop me to write 5 stars testimonial to Transform Tutor and this time we'd like to…read moregive a 5-star review to Sophia Barkoff, my son's reading & writing tutor. First, Transform Tutor aren't just tutors! They help your kids have fun while deep diving into the subject they teach and that is a rare skill. My son works with Anna, his amazing chemistry tutor from Transform tutor for months and when we think he needs a writing tutor, we went to Transform tutor again. There is not any other reason to think about others. And they NEVER disappoint us! For a high school sophomore, every subject score is important. However, writing skill is one of them which not easy to be improved in a short of time. After we work with Sophia, she got to know my son's interests, learn his favor in his personality, and pick books based on his interests and leading and guiding him on reading good books. They talked about the books together after that, just like a big sister helping with her brother, and she emailed me with updates from the online tutoring and check my son's progress after the class. She shares her reviews and any specific concern with us. You can tell, she cares her students very much. No doubt, she is super great at teaching! We have had the opportunity to work with many amazing tutors from the center. I am happy to say that we love all of them! Again, if you are looking for a great reading and writing tutor, talk to Sophia! If you need a chemistry tutor, talk to Anna! If you want to know more about how happy we are working with Transform Tutor, talk to me. I will share all I know with you!

They were flexible to work remotely and were able to determine at the start what topics he needed to review or have extra exposure to. Both had a calm demeanor to explain student's questions. The content was comprehensive for relevant topics on the exam. One suggestion is that the user interface be more user friendly as sometimes submissions were not accepted due to formatting issues. In addition, the exercises are insightful, but involve a lot of reading by the student to understand the concepts, instead of live teacher explanation. That methodology may not work for every student.

Every parent wants to offer the best education support for their children, and our intention was no…read moredifferent. We joined C2 Education two years ago and were introduced to the center director, Gordon. Despite our reservations, he sold us a 100-hour package and assured us in writing that we could get a refund for unused hours with just a single email sent to the C2 helpline. He repeated this in subsequent sales transactions of 100-hour packages as well. In January 2024, we got a farewell email from him, notifying us that he was departing the center and there would be a new director. We immediately responded, worried there would be a communication breakdown and the commitment would not be honored. The former director responded from his personal email that we had nothing to fear and that the refund would be honored. We have not received a response from anyone officially employed by C2 during that period. In May 2024, as our daughter was graduating high school, we sent a formal email requesting a refund of the unused hours. We got a response from the new Center director stating that we used 64/100 hours and that we would be reimbursed only 15% of the total purchase price (which comes to around $800), which was a complete breach of commitment. Our original concerns and fears were well-founded. After several back-and-forth communications, the new Center director acknowledged that the former director, Gordon, had made a mistake. She discussed refund options with us, and we settled on an option that included a pack of 10 classes we could use once our daughter started college in the fall and a balance refund of around $1852. She sent an email saying that she would work with us through this process and sympathized with us for our challenging position. She then returned after about ten days, asking us to take a call from Scott Thomas as a follow-up, and a call was scheduled. After waiting on a Microsoft Teams call for more than 20 minutes (we sent a follow-up email saying we would be dropping off and to call a phone number - we received a phone call). We were asked the same set of questions that we had already furnished in prior calls over several days. This gentleman was extremely rude and started shouting on the phone, saying that we should be adhering to their policies without regard for what it means to be polite to the customer. He immediately followed up with an email sent to the C2 customer contract distribution center, saying that we now only have 53 100 hours, not 64 100 hours like what was communicated originally. After a few days, the VP of Operation Services, Whitney Myers, from the escalation center, responded that there was no recourse and that we would only get $851 back, refunded to our bank account (instead of the original form of payment)--why is that? There are several problems here. 1) The discrepancies in communication have been highly frustrating for us as customers of C2. 2) You don't yell at your customer and tell the customer that you don't care about helping us here. 3) It was your former employee who committed on behalf of your organization, representing your organization, and it's your responsibility as an organization to honor that commitment. You don't say I am not going to take responsibility - you are on your own. 5) All individuals (current center director, sales manager, VP operations) have gone silent despite repeated attempts to contact them during this episode for the last seven weeks. Our only recourse is to leave this detailed review across all sites so that other prospects are walking into this den of deceit with their eyes wide open. This entire experience has us questioning the credibility of C2 as an educational institution chartered with the goal of improving our children's lives. This is not how customers should be treated, and we hope every prospective customer spends the time to read this and beware of this center/franchise/organization. It is an absolutely dishonest organization with questionable practices.
