I sent my son to Simon Academics for four years in high school and he was loving it. It was the…read moremost useful classes he ever had in his high school years, as he told me. Thanks to Jon Simon for his guidance, my son now is very strong in his English writing and read WSJ everyday. Notes: Comments and constructive feedback can be harsh on the homework but that's how his strong writing skill had helped him did so well in high school and in college.

I feel Mr. Simon is one of the best kept secrets for Fremont students and parents, so I was torn…read moreabout writing this review. But in the end, he truly deserves to be more well-known than the franchise tutor mills. Our two sons have been in Mr. Simon's classes for the last two years, and we just enrolled them for another year. We can see their improvement in fictional writing style and persuasive organization. Their school teachers have also commented on how articulate they have become. With input from our kids, our thoughts on why his classes are so effective: * Mr. Simon's expectations of disciplined work, enforced with a sense of humor, motivates his students. Oftentimes my kids would tell us the jokes Mr. Simon told them. * Mr. Simon provides personalized feedback for each student, but done in the class such that all can benefit from his teachings. * Mr. Simon also advises the parents not to intervene with students' work. Initially it was hard on our helicopter parenting style, but soon I found that without our meddling, our kids became quite proactive in doing their assignment. Mr. Simon provides for both in-person and live online during class hours, but I'd recommend students attend in-person whenever possible.

My son had an excellent experience with Caleb Liu preparing for the ACT. Caleb is extremely…read moreprofessional, listens attentively to the individual needs and goals of the student and parent, and goes above and beyond to ensure the success of his students. He was recommended to me by a parent whom he successfully tutored with great results as well. I was especially impressed by him when there was a practice test hiccup, was super responsive in resolving the issue, and took it upon himself to do a personal makeup for my son. I highly recommend Caleb as a 5-star tutor for test prep. Overall, our experience with AJ was very positive, but there is significant room for improvement for practice test sessions. My son took two practice tests that were not well-organized and frustrated him because he had prepared for them only to feel like his time was wasted. I provided direct feedback to AJ because I was surprised that that this happened twice in a row to my son. I expected a premium tutoring service like AJ to be able to run practice test sessions routinely and smoothly because when they don't it causes additional stress and time on the students and parents. I hope AJ takes this as constructive feedback for the future.

Trustworthy, deeply caring, and remarkably consistent tutor…read more DeLey Hamm has worked with my daughter for over three years, supporting her through different subjects and stages of school. Over time, she has become far more than a tutor -- she's a steady, trusted presence who understands how to meet a student where they are and help them move forward with confidence. What makes DeLey truly special is her deep care and emotional intelligence. She doesn't just teach; she listens, encourages, and adjusts her approach to fit each moment. She's patient when things are hard, celebrates small wins, and helps students rediscover motivation from within. My daughter has learned to set realistic goals, build discipline, and take ownership of her learning -- all under DeLey's calm and thoughtful guidance. It's rare to find someone both so reliable and so genuinely invested in a student's growth. DeLey combines academic skill with heart, and that combination has had a lasting impact on my daughter's confidence and progress. I deeply trust her judgment and am so grateful for her continued support through the years.

This is a great tutoring center with lots of study materials to improve my weakness. I came in for…read morehelp on my Statistics class and Gwen was an amazing teacher. She helped me understand the material and was very thorough in explaining each problems. What led me to using her service is because she tailors her tutoring service towards each students need and her credentials are amazing being a UC Berkeley Applied Mathematics graduate. I highly recommend her service for all your extra tutoring help. Apollo Tutoring also specialize in SAT, ACT, Math, English, and Science. New Location is in Fremont!

My sister goes here for her SAT test prep and Miss Gwen has been a great help. She has great…read moreknowledge about what the test entails and tries her best to explain it to us and what we need to do to achieve the best result. There's so many changes in the education system so sometimes we, family, can't keep up with them all but Miss Gwen did a great job keeping us on track so we have a better understanding of how we can support and encourage my sister. I saw my sister's note and Miss Gwen really focuses on the root of the problem to help my sister learn better, and not just for the test. She also does many mock tests to get used to the real test environment. She's been going here for less than 6 months but I already saw her improvement. She also said she likes Miss Gwen a lot and I think that's also important in finding a good tutor.

When I first joined the MT learning center, I was a junior struggling to achieve A's in school and…read moreconstantly performing below average on tests. After taking multiple classes, such as the AP Chemistry, AP Biology, Precalculus, and AP Lang with Don, my grades significantly improved, and I ended junior year with a 4.0 GPA despite the 4 difficult AP classes that I took. Afterwards, I relied again on Don and his expert team of college consultants to help me achieve my dream college results. The team was highly professional, responsible, and extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of college applications. For the price of only a few thousand dollars, this extraordinary team made me achieve results that would cost tens of thousands at other firms. Ultimately, despite my below-average stats, I was accepted into the University of Southern California (USC) for the class of 2030. Thank you Don, as well as all of the teachers at MT learning center, for your support and kindess towards my college journey,

Please read through 1 star reviews and also the reviews that say "are not recommended". Overall…read moreunprofessional & tutor is too egoistic to take input. Lacking of kindness and compassion. Uses threats to student to assert control. The way he communicates is totally demoralizing. It's only his way or the highway. Traumatizing to say the least. This tutor might work for your family but it just doesn't work for us. Good luck..
