I am forever grateful to Emily for the fantastic work she did with my son. She went way beyond what…read morea normal tutoring center normally would do. She "really cared" about my son's wellbeing. The personal care my son received was extraordinary. My son was getting C's, D's and F's in school. He was becoming depressed. His self esteem was low. He said, "Mom, I'm not that smart". His school said, "You parents are all alike. You always think your child is smart, but most children are just average". That's when I took my son to the Glen Ellyn Tutoring Center. Emily said, "when a smart child doesn't do well in school, check his vision". I did. The school had told me he had 20/20 vision. In fact his vision was very poor and he had difficulty tracking words when he read. Two problems overlooked by his school. He also had attention problems due to elivated levels of lead in his body. After these problems were fixed, my son started to get all A's and B,s. My son had to make up for wasted years in school during which he couldn't see the board or concentrate well. Emily helped him catch up. My son now has a lot of self confidence and will begin work on his doctorate at UAB this fall. This wouldn't have happened without Emily's help. She really goes all out for her students.

I am a former student of the Reading Tree ACT/SAT preparation course, and I would fully recommend…read moreit to anyone looking for a quality program with outstanding results. I am currently a senior in high school and along with my grades, my great ACT score has given me the opportunity to attend my dream school, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and I can attribute my ACT success to my experience with the Reading Tree program. I am so happy with my choice to attend the Reading Tree program. I had other friends in similar ACT prep programs with hundreds of students being taught by very few teachers. They said that they felt as if they "never got any personalized attention" and that it was a "waste of time." I found this to be the complete opposite at the Reading Tree. The teachers were warm and patient (regardless of the level of the student), and they always had an answer to my questions. The intimate environment really made me feel that my success was a primary goal to the program. Along with the books we received for homework and practice tests, we got a binder that had so many different helpful hints and tricks that I used when I took my test (and my test results confirmed...they definitely work). I felt the homework assignments to be well thought-out and relevant to what we needed to focus on. I can't say enough about how successful I feel the Reading Tree program is. From its personalized program, helpful text materials, well-educated teachers, and of course, great test results, I feel that it is beneficial to any junior or senior looking to do well on their tests; it is definitely worth it. Thank you to all my teachers!

My daughter will take the test again in December, so we are hoping for an even higher score. The great part was that we didn't use all of our hours that we paid and after the test, we decided to continue independently and they refunded the rest of hours right away. The person who is the owner is an educator and knows what she's doing. In addition to tutoring, they offer online resources that we will continue to use and practice for the second time around. If your child needs one on one, then I highly recommend Huntington.

Bolstering about how smart he is and his student love him . He's a Jekle and Hyde . Yelled at my kid then lied about it made my kid upset and said he would not teach a child who cries . A great disappointment due to he was referred to us . He should take some of the money he charges and buy a new chair that's not shredded for the kids to sit on . Make sure he tells you that he videos the kids sessions . I was not informed of that or gave permission. Update : To comment on his feedback full refund because I demanded it . He still wanted yo charge me for the 3 sessions . Don't ever tell a parent you would not teach a student who cries . My son said you were yelling at another student while he was there with the other tutor and the tutor said He couldn't stand that . Maybe this would make other students stand up for themselves or tell their parents what's going on because it is not right .

Chicago Home Tutor responded to my initial inquiry super fast, we had a great discussion as to her needs and her personality, and the fact that I believe she may also have some form of learning disability or adhd (undiagnosed but showed same symptoms her her diagnosed brother). Then they quickly identified a couple matches and one recommendation for a tutor and within a matter of days we had our first in-home appointment set up. The match was made so perfectly that my daughter has had great success in strengthening her math skills with her tutor. We will continue through this next school term because Chicago Home Tutor has been of such great benefit I am confident my daughter will not just be fully on top of her grade level math skills but will also be ahead of the game. The pride my daughter expresses in her abilities now makes my heart smile!
