The college application and decision process can be extremely overwhelming, and Chris' help and…read moreguidance throughout the entire experience from beginning to end was indispensable. There are so many aspects that need to be managed, and Chris keeps you and your child on task. He is also very easy to contact, which is SO important. A friend of ours referred us to Chris, and we reached out to him very early in the process, which was very beneficial. Our son was very unsure as to what school he wanted to attend and also did not know exactly what he wanted to study. Chris helped us narrow down our choices as time went on, helped us with school visits, helped us with Naviance (which is a nightmare), and also kept our son on task as far as testing and classes. He was worth every penny that was spent - our results were amazing, and my son will be attending the school that is the perfect fit for him this fall 2022.

I felt compelled once again to thank Chris and his staff for helping us through what seemed to be…read morean overwhelming process. Our son was able to get into an honors program at a top 5 public university, and I can't help but think Chris had a big part in helping him achieve that milestone. If you need anyone to help you with the ever changing college admission process, Chris is the only person I would trust. Thanks again for everything Chris.

We purchased a 300-hour package for my son 5years ago and were told unused hours could be…read moretransferred to his sister. We recently tried to do that, thinking 10 hours were still left. C2 now claims my son used 302 hours and says the 10 hours might have been "bonus hours," so they can't be transferred. This was never clearly explained to us before. Very disappointed by the lack of transparency and poor customer service. If I could give 0 stars, I would.

C2 is so much more than just another tutoring service. At C2, the tutors and everyone else work as…read morea team to help you improve. They don't give you the general "set of skills" in whatever you're learning; they give you specialized and intensive training in the areas that you are the weakest in. During classes, you practice again and again on what you struggle on, and the tutors give really thorough and understandable explanations on your mistakes. They make learning easy and fun. Not only do you practice during sessions, you do homework (which is a huge part of the learning experience), and you take mock exams to see your personal improvement. I'm a former student and I needed help with the SAT critical reading section. I had Jacinth and Clara as my tutors. Quite frankly, they are the bomb. They're both super funny and relaxed. They make relevant examples to the material they're trying to explain and make it super easy to remember. The reading skills I learned not only helped me on the SAT, but also helped me greatly in AP English Literature. Jennifer, the director, is so nice. She takes cares of all of the students--she cares about you not only on your learning process, but also as a friend. Sometimes, when I'm in the area, I hop by C2 just to hang out. Overall, it's a really chill atmosphere where you get to develop your skills not just for that one test you're trying to take, but for life. I highly recommend C2 to all students!

My daughter is "crazy for math" now and thats all thanks to Richard and his team at Smithtown…read moreMathnasium. Richard has an extraordinary way of making math fun and my daughter cant wait and is genuinely excited about her math session every time. He makes the "FUN" of math contagious to his entire team. All the tutors bring a level of excellence and it's obvious they are all dedicated to not just teaching math, but fostering a deep understanding and love for the subject. Furthermore, Rich and his team take the time to understand each student, their quirks (such as needing things to be in rainbow order), their strengths and weaknesses, and foster the student as a whole. Their ability to break down complex math problems, and explain things calmly and patiently is astounding. This personalized approach has created such a sense of confidence in her abilities, making her feel supported and empowered to tackle even the most challenging problems. I've been witness to my daughter and other kids with a math frown, literally turned upside down! Rich has an excellent ability to be on the students level to explain things, to bring them out of a funk or "I can't do this" attitude and its remarkable seeing such a big smile on her face every time she succeeds. On top of all this, the entire Mathnasium is kept clean and sanitary right down to disinfecting the pencils! I could not ask for more, and highly recommend Smithtown Mathnasium.

New to the area I decided to walk the small strip of Smithtown and see what was around for me to do…read morewith my two little guys. (Summer 2016) Conveniently, while walking I stumbled upon the window of this Spanish school, the owner had been inside as she was setting the school up. (She was new to the strip of Smithtown) I requested a card and some information. I took a chance by signing my Oldest son up (3 years old)- he is extremely shy, and does not take to many places very easily. I expected him to resist the school (especially because he is shy - young and learning social cues- now throwing in a a second language/ culture) My son took very well. The teacher (also the owner) is more than just a teacher, she truly loves these kids. I am the creep that walked by the school at all random times to check in on my son. I feel safe leaving my son with her. In addition my son comes home with all sorts of information on culture and language. She makes learning less of a chore and more of a game. My oldest son loves it so much that now I send my youngest son (just turned two) and he is thrilled. I can't say enough good things about this school, the teacher & the environment. Parking can stink at times because it's in town, but it's close enough to a corner making parking lots a lot more available for a short little walk. The price is well worth the experience for these children& the owner is more than willing to help you work within your budget- although this is her job you can tell that this is also her dream and passion. She isn't in it for the money.-- and that's a hard thing to find
