I started with Club Z approximately 2 yrs. ago. My grandson was having trouble focusing on his…read moreschool work. The wonderful tutor that was sent to us has been a blessing. She is thoughtful and creative with learning. My grandson recently was having difficulty with testing. His teacher was at a loss, because she told me he knew the answers, but testing he was failing. My tutor did not hesitate, she came with me to conference with the teacher and Vice Principal of the school. They told me having her there was insightful. They now know what will work with him. He is now testing at A-B grade level. This has been great for us, and my tutor is a well-qualified teacher, she would be an asset to any school, but I am glad she likes tutoring. I am going to continue through the summer months to keep him competent and self confident. His self confidence I owe to Club Z.

Michael helped my son to not only get through that course, but also to be prepared for calculus this year, where he is succeeding remarkably. Additionally, Michael offered general advice and specific practice techniques for the SAT, and he shared his expertise on essay writing, both for the exam and for college applications. Michael has been very flexible and understanding in addressing our questions and concerns, and is both professional and friendly to work with. While he charges more than some private home tutors you might find on Craigslist, he is a full-time professional tutor who charges comparably to, or less than tutoring centers. We definitely value the added convenience of having him come straight to our home at times that meet our schedule. We have enjoyed working with Michael and look forward to working with him again as our son prepares for college next year, and can strongly recommend him for any parents concerned about their child's progress in math, science, or preparing for college.

My heart is so full as I write this review for Michael. I first found Michael in 2016 to help with…read moremy son who was student Willow Glen HS and was struggling with Calculus and I wanted him to stay an A student. It went so well, I hired Michel to tutor my daughter who was on an IEP (auditory process disorder and speech delay) and struggles with any new task. I never told Michael she was disabled because I did not want a different style than he provided my son. I was worried for my daughter at first because I saw nothing in his review about how he worked with kids with special needs and my daughter was so behind in math. He started tutoring her well over three year ago and we saw such an amazing transformation in her math work and grades in just 3 months. My daughter was quiet and somewhat stubborn and yet he had the patience to work with her 2-3 times a week (1-2 hours a day). Maya just graduated from Willow Glen she will attend University of CA Dominican this fall, and her math placement test work placed her in highest entry for freshman math. We feel very lucky and blessed to have had Michael on our side. Thank you, Michael, for all you have done for my family!! You are doing the right work, you rock we couldn't have done this without you.

I was a bit unsure how much I'd be able to learn through an online course (as I usually prefer in-person classes), but I'm happy to say that I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot from Alexa! I appreciate SJLC's wide variety of language offerings and flexibility with online, hybrid, and in-person classes. I'm looking forward to taking more classes!

My son has recently started online math tutoring with Christine and we have found it very helpful…read more Christine offers direct and online tutoring. Though hesitant at first I have found online tutoring convenient since the student does it from home and the timing of 9 pm suits my teenager because it is after all school activities and homework is done. (She also offers online tutoring before 3 pm) The software used meets the needs, Christine comes prepared for each lesson and does a good job of assessing student needs. We send review sheets, homework and graded work as pictures to her before the lesson so this doesn't cut into tutoring time. My son is already getting more confident and his grades are starting to go up. I highly recommend Christine Wang as a math tutor.
