My 3 year old really likes it thus far. We just started at the beginning of this year so I will…read morecontinue to monitor his progress. My concern is that this location seems to be getting more crowded by the week. I want to ensure my 3 year old is getting enough one-on-one with an instructor. Two kids to one instructor seems fair and manageable but more than that doesn't seem effective. I hope Greta will manage the ratio of kids/instructors available because I'm growing more concerned about it. Tuition isn't cheap, especially in this climate, so I'd like to know that I'm paying for more than just those booklets. As I stated earlier, my son seems to be really enjoying it so I will continue to monitor progress and hope to give this place 5 stars after we've spent more time here. Also, the parking situation is definitely a headache.

My son has been attending Kumon for both Math and Reading programs for over 7 months now, the…read moreresults are surprisingly good! Academically, he is very comfortable with math problems now, and loves to read on his own. With Kumon work, he's math and reading levels are above other classmates'. In terms of self discipline, he is used to doing the homework everyday on his own and tries his best to avoid any unintentional mistake. I am a proud mom! The Kumon el cerrito and Pinole instructor Greta has been so patient and kind to all the children and the parents. She knows everyone's name and level, and is very involved in the progress of every student. Hats off! and what a kindhearted person to be around. To those who are still thinking about joining, I would say, Kumon (like any other program) is not a promise to the success. However it is a great opportunity for the kids to create the healthy habit of studying and to boost their self esteem, and a reliable way for the parents to help our kids to make the most of their potentials. Your effort will be paid off!

They helped my son a lot. His english grade improved from C to B and Math from C to A in 7 months…read more I can see his confidence improve a lot. Their pricing is reasonable, about $24/hr. It seems all the students have individual attentions and my son has separate tutors who specialized in each subject. They also help with my son's homework. Thank you to Coachland.

My daughter is a 5th grader and she started with CoachLand 2 months ago. We were all excited about…read moreCoachLand, and my husband called them up and made an appointment to meet with a tutor. They responded to us right away, and the meeting went very well, and so we decided to give CoachLand a try. What we like about CoachLand: 1. Reasonable price and that included a discount! Also, there is no contract. :-) 2. Friendly, and smart tutors. CoachLand has a great learning system, and they surely know what they are doing. We are confident that we made the right decision for our daughter! 3. Flexible schedules. 4. Parking is available in the back of the building. 5. The place is nice and clean. My daughter has had a great experience learning Math through CoachLand. She gained so much confidence about Math, all within 2 months of learning. We will continue with CoachLand for sure. Our daughter said that she really likes her tutors, and she looks up to them. She enjoys learning Math now because of this tutoring experience, and her learning skills have been improved. Thanks to CoachLand for the Great work!!!!

I have used Club Z for my last year of college for multiple subjects. I was needing help in…read moreCalculus 2, Statistics and World History, and I received 2 As and 1 B in those classes. In-Home consultation: I spoke with one of their Educational Consultants to go over my current situation and my expectations from the tutoring sessions. She was understanding, patient and matched me with tutors who are not only academically capable, but also fun and interesting to deal with. I love all my tutors! Calculus 2 tutoring: It's the most advanced math courses that I have ever taken in my life. However, I had the best experience in this class. The tutor, Daniel, was smart, organized and made things much, much easier than they appear. We always started our session with very simple problems, and he added more complicated problems one at a time. From my experience with this tutor, I learned that math can be easy if you understand the problems from the foundation. I received A+ in this class. Thank you! Statistics: Stephen was a funny guy; he created lots of activities for me during our sessions. We used coins, dices and cards for probabilities calculation. I learned a lot faster with these activities, and believe it or not, after taking this course with the tutor, I feel more confident going to casinos in Vegas. Lol... I received A in this class. Thank you! World History: English is my second language, so I had a hard time reading through the textbook, not to mention I have to retain all the information for the sake of HW and exams. Ashley always came with a summary sheet which included all the bullet points that we were going to go over in the session. She eliminated all the unnecessary information from text book and simplified them in just a few sentences for me. After I understood the main "stories", that's when she dug into more details with me, such as vocabularies that might appear on the exam that I would need to understand. My English improved tremendously after taking this course. I received B+ in this class, and I am super, super happy about it. Thank you! It was great working with all these awesome tutors and I would recommend Club Z to anyone I know!

Highly recommend. My son and needed help with English writing: he had lots of creative ideas, but structuring those ideas, bringing them to life, finer points of grammar, vocabulary etc. were challenging. Camy devised a series of classes where he would write elaborate fiction over a few sessions, with each writing session focusing on different skills. Result: his writing tightened up, vocabulary improved, and he felt more confident in English. On top of this, Camy made the classes enjoyable. My son LOVED his sessions with them. He used to say classes were so fun that he would lose track of time. Thanks Camy!

She's engaging and makes the sessions fun for our daughter. Jasmine is local, but given the current environment she teaches our daughter online. Unlike other online programs where there may be a language barrier between the teacher and student, the ease with which Jasmine switches from English to Chinese and vice versa makes the lessons so much more effective. Moreover, the students feel heard and understood so there isn't a lot of time wasted on misunderstandings. During the lessons, Jasmine always stays focused and gently keeps my daughter on task. She has learned more with Jasmine in the last 6 months than she did in the last couple of years at Chinese school. If you want your child to learn Chinese, I strongly recommend you reach out to Jasmine!

I am well into my adulthood and was yearning to practice and continue using Cantonese again. It's cute to understand but I wanted to be more active with it. It is incredibly useful in my profession. I have basic sentence structure down and some vocabulary. I found it difficult to practice with family because they tend to be impatient, and realistically, judgmental. I found Jasmine and was so glad I did! We had twice weekly Zoom sessions and she was very well worth it. She was patient with me and walked me through a workbook. While most languages can be learned through an app or book, the tonality of Cantonese is VERY important. Are you saying horse or mother, the number four or dead. Tones matter so having a teacher to give you feedback right on the spot is so valuable. I went back to school and still work my full time job so I don't get to have as many lessons as I want. I HIGHLY recommend Jasmine for her patience, knowledge and teaching style. Need to learn Cantonese? Get a hold of her!

On the other hand, if you're a professional pianist and your desire is to further your professional career, she's more than capable of helping you.
