Once his grade started to slip significantly, we reached out to AJ and were paired with Tyler. He was instrumental in helping my son not only raise his grade, but also build the confidence he needed to succeed. He is now helping other students in the class and scoring much higher on his tests and quizzes. We are very grateful for Tyler's support and highly recommend AJ Tutoring.

My son received math tutoring for BC Calculus from Tyler Vanvalkenburg who was EXCELLENT. Tyler was…read moreeffective in explaining concepts in a way that stuck for my son, enabling my son to earn an A on his final exam and improving his overall grade. The reason I'm writing the review is because in addition to being a great tutor, Tyler's friendly and approachable style was a great fit for my son, and he did an exceptional job in communicating with me. He seems to genuinely care about his tutees...he followed up after exams and AP testing to check in on how my son did. I 100% recommend AJ Tutoring and Tyler. Effective, and just good people.

I worked in Japan for two years. After a year of being back in America, I was worried about losing…read moremy Japanese, so I decided to find a tutor. While searching online, I found SVT and checked them out. I have been using a tutor through SVT for a few weeks now. The process of starting tutoring was pretty easy, thanks to the website. Nina, the owner, responded to my request form very quickly, and I was paired with a Japanese tutor within a few days. My tutor is really amazing, and I enjoy his teaching approach. As well, I admittedly lack confidence in my Japanese ability, but he's always very kind and encouraging. They did a great job with matching my tutor, and I'm glad to have found my tutor through them. I can only review the process and Japanese tutoring, but I feel that if I needed help with a different language that they offered, I'd go to them first.

I came to Elena as I wanted to take personal classes and learn academic to be able to draw people. I'm more than satisfied with results and I can see my progress with every single work that we are doing.

I'm really thankful Elena for her patience on her work with me, for her positive attitude and support whenever I felt talentless. I would highly recomend classes with Elena for kids and adults.

Hello Yelp! I am a sophomore at LAHS who had Doris help me with my TEDx talk, and she was…read morefantastic. Doris is a super friendly, funny person who's main goal is to help you in any she can. Throughout the process Doris did everything she could to help me, even in her off time when we weren't meeting. I remember how I would be working on my speech at the all hours of the day, and half of the time she would be on there too, commenting helpful suggestions. She spent hours looking over my speech giving me notes on how to have a clearer, stronger message. Then once the speech was perfected we would go through memorization tips, like grouping the information in small sentences in order to memorize chunks of the speech faster. Finally she guided me on how to speak with clear, big posture, a loud voice, and how to move throughout a stage. I remember if I didn't start strong enough she would act out how I looked, and make me try again, it was extremely helpful. I highly recommend Doris if you have a big presentation, or anything that involves talking in front of people.

Our daughter has been at Cornerstone for almost 2 years and we absolutely love it. Her Chinese is…read morefluent now, and this is one of the only schools that we toured for the children actually speak to each other in Chinese on the playground, instead of reverting to English. The project based and play based curriculum for three and four-year-olds is truly unique and engaging. The teacher to student ratio is low and the teachers genuinely understand and are invested in each child's development. Unlike many traditional Chinese schools, they also focus on children's social emotional development, and my daughter has matured substantially in this area. Helen and Teresa are wonderful and made time to meet with me anytime I had concerns. Truly, an exceptional environment for Chinese immersion, and in my opinion (after touring nearly every Chinese school) the best on the Peninsula.

Summary: A great immersion school with caring staff. My chicks have been attending here for many…read moreyears. 99.8% of their Chinese ability is from CLF. ( yeah, I will take the .2 %). Their Chinese is not native level but enough to help new student from China in school. ;) We know plenty of kids go to other Chinese schools that have shuttle services, homework hours, extra enrichment options etc. let's be clear. CLF doesn't offer any of that. When you sign up CLF, you are there to learn Chinese. Guess what? Unlike the norm that kids dislike Chinese school and eventually drop out, Most CLF kids stay and continue for many years. My chicks have close friends from CLF kinder days. The same class pretty much grow up together. My chicks love their Chinese school and excited to go. Students learn Chinese though regular activities like singing, performing, cooking, science projects. Last key point: CLF fosters a healthy culture of handwork and effort. Not purely on how fluent/good you are with Chinese. Students who don't have the opportunity to practice at home can equally feel empowered and recognized. On rainy days, you can see teachers escorting the kids with their umbrellas up and down the stairs. Now that is caring!

Our daughter has been at Stratford for the past 2 years, and we truly could not have asked for a…read morebetter early learning experience. Starting preschool at just 2.5 years old was emotional for us as parents, but from day one we felt reassured that our daughter was in caring and capable hands. The love, patience, and attention shown to the children every day made a huge difference in helping her feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. Over these two years, we have seen tremendous growth in her communication, confidence, social skills, and curiosity. We especially appreciate the thoughtful guidance during parent-teacher conferences, where we received valuable feedback on her strengths, areas to support at home, and advice through important transitions like Preschool, Pre-K, and TK. That partnership and support meant a lot to us as parents. We also want to sincerely thank Ms. Ruchi for the warmth, kindness, and positive energy she has brought to the classroom over the past 6 months. Our daughter always speaks so happily about her, and it is clear how much she genuinely cares for the children. What we love most about Stratford is how much effort the school puts into creating meaningful experiences for the kids. From classroom activities and celebrations to performances and special events, every detail helps build confidence, creativity, and joy in learning. Watching our daughter proudly participate in performances and come home excited about school has been incredibly special for our family. We are deeply grateful to the teachers and staff for creating such a nurturing and supportive environment during these important early years.

She was enrolled in the bilingual program for both years, and it has been an excellent experience. She developed strong skills in both Mandarin and English, learned a great deal about Chinese culture, and also became very confident in her English communication. All of the teachers and staff we met were extraordinary. They were caring, responsible, and experienced. The classroom teachers paid attention to small but meaningful details, from reminding me to take care of my daughter's cracked lip, to helping her find a lost item, to sharing practical and helpful advice on how to support her writing skills at home. The school administration and leadership team were also very responsive and supportive, whether it was helping with sunscreen application or answering my questions about the new school year. The program offers strong academics along with a rich variety of activities. My daughter loved all the events, from Show and Tell and clubs to the egg hunt, book fair, and more. I was also especially impressed by the school's emphasis on art and music. They have performances at least twice a year, and the children always do an amazing job. I have been so happy with everything she learned at school. Stratford School - Sunnyvale De Anza Park also gave my daughter a very strong SEL foundation. Her teachers helped her learn how to share, care for others, and build positive social habits every day. We also truly enjoyed being part of the Stratford community as a family. My daughter built friendships both inside and outside the classroom. She made many friends, and our families often stayed in touch and spent time together outside of school. There were volunteer opportunities for parents, but everything was completely optional, and there was never any pressure if parents were busy. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Stratford School - Sunnyvale De Anza Park and would highly recommend it!

Teacher Candice doesn't come across like your typical warm and fuzzy preschool teacher and my daughter respects her and likes her. Of all the preschool level activities we've tried, First Focus is the most fun according to my daughter. I observe that she's more confident and engaged here than in any other type of class. Strange, there's homework and she wants to do it. It's expensive so if you are already doing preschool, the cost might be prohibitive. But if you child is begging to read, this is the place. I spent 6 months trying to make learning the alphabet fun for my child but I didn't succeed. After First Focus, my daughter thinks reading is just fun and games.

Recently I took Kate's class on HTML Fundamentals, and I learned a lot! Kate was very friendly and provided the right amount of encouragement and offered help when needed. Kate was also very efficient while also being thorough which allowed her the time to answer many of the classes questions. I would attend another of Kate's classes. Scheduling is the only reason I am giving this review four stars and not five. I've had all three classes I've taken rescheduled at some point. The reason I take these classes is to help me with current projects and tasks at my existing job, so when the classes are rescheduled it just delays my work.
