I'm giving him 4 stars only because he's not an educational therapist, not because he's not "excellent." After four sessions with him, my child has regained confidence needed to move on to the next level. Don't trustthe b.s. negative reviews that are of one extreme or another, it usually lies somewhere in between. The teacher either has the knack...or not. Ender definitely has the knack.

My two sons have been going to Ender for their entire high school careers--and he is simply put,…read morethe best! I was referred to him when my son was in a crisis--literally flunking Pre-Calculus and in danger of getting an F for the semester. My son was reluctant to go to a tutor, but Ender said--"look, you will know if this is helping in just a few sessions," and he was right. We saw vast improvement after only three sessions. With Ender's guidance and explanation, my son went from an F to an A for the trimester and got a B for the semester. After that, he never wanted to head into a math final without a tune -up session from Ender. He did very well in math and AP Stat throughout the rest of his high school years. So when my younger son tested into the very rigorous Accelerated Math course his Freshman year at Lowell, I knew what to do. I had him start with Ender from the beginning and he was one of the few to emerge from that class with an "A." We also asked Ender to tutor our sons for the SAT and SATIIs and he helped them pull down a surprising 800 in the SAT II--surprising because my son doesn't think of himself as a "math student." Ender is kind, patient, rational, and as my sons say, "just a great teacher." Everyone I have ever sent to him has been very happy with the results. Some of my friends decline to go because he is not the least expenseive tutor in town, but I want to say "He is worth every penny!" So often, I've seen friends spend lots of time and frustration on a less accomplished tutor--with mediocre results. Ender delivers results. Plus, my sons really like him. He's low-key and professional, and he eases kid's fears. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have a resource like Ender for my sons.

BOT is a tutoring/mentoring programs for kids in grades K-12 that come from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. BOT assigns you a student based on your preferences (boy vs. girl, age group, etc) and you meet with the same student once a week for the whole school year. i just wanted to recommend it because this is such a great opportunity to do something every week that doesn't revolve around you. i've been working with my student since the beginning of the school year. she just got her first report card and went from D's and F's last year to A's, B's and C's. knowing that makes me feel a lot better than dishing out way too much money on a pair of fabulous shoes. so, if you are looking for something positive and rewarding to do with not a ton of commitment (2 hours a week), definitely check them out! the rewards are definitely worth the time invested!

Without question, engaging Scott was the most valuable educational investment I made to support my…read morechild. It's not cheap, but the outcome is extraordinary. The impact Scott had on my son went well beyond college essay preparation/production. Pre-Scott, my son could barely write a coherent sentence and through the magic of Scott's teaching methodology and in a relatively short timeframe, the improvement was dramatic. The counsel, candid discussions, and direction Scott provided paid huge dividends in the classroom and in daily written communication (emails, texts). My son became a more confident writer and student which of course, carried over to everyday life. As he heads-off to college in the fall (UCLA), I'm forever grateful to Scott for the life-changing role he played in preparing my son for the next chapter and beyond.

Scott helped my daughter think through her experiences and interests and figure out how to apply them to all the different application prompts and questions.

My daughter really struggles with deadlines and time management and Scott was really patient and gave a lot of good advice and guidance. In the end she was admitted to her top choice. We were very happy to work with Scott and would be happy to work with him again in the future.

Brendan is the absolute best. My only wish is that we had hired him sooner. Our son is bright but…read morenot academically inclined nor well-organized. Initially Brendan helped our son prepare for the SSATs as part of high school applications. Even with just a short time to prepare, our son did better than his first practice test and walked into the test without any fear. Brendan has helped our son better stay on top of his coursework and homework. Brendan has also helped him turn around his grades in all subject areas. And my son looks forward to when Brendan comes over (it really takes the stress off the parental relationship when it comes to homework;). Brendan has had a truly positive impact on my son's relationship to learning. Brendan always goes above and beyond. For my son's first finals week at high school, my son would sometimes give Brendan a late night call - it was more to calm his nerves than truly review materials but Brendan was always available for him. When my son got a last minute acceptance to a high school, Brendan came over on a Sunday to talk him through the decision. When personal tragedy struck our family, Brendan was there in case my son needed to talk about it. Brendan is really caring and meets the kids where they are at emotionally as well as academically. Brendan also understands the school system and has helped us understand how we might tap additional resources to help our son. I highly recommend Brendan to everyone.

I highly doubt I would have passed the CA Bar without Daniel's methods and guidance. Details -- I've been practicing corporate law at a large law firm for over 16 years. Because life happens, I needed to relocate to Los Angeles, which means I needed to take the CA bar exam in order to continue my practice in California. I haven't thought about a bar exam or 95%+ of any law school curriculum/subjects since I graduated in 2008. In addition to the pressures of being a partner at a large law firm, I was also a new dad and trying to juggle personal and professional obligations, all while wondering how in the world I would pass this bar exam. Cue Daniel! Daniel's methods and his guidance really helped me get over this major hurdle. He has detailed subject matter knowledge and really knows how to personalize a plan and schedule that worked well for me. Daniel also held me accountable when I would fall behind on my study schedule, which is really the boost I needed. I can't thank Daniel enough for his dedication, personalized plan, incredible attitude, and intelligence. He gets 10 out of 5 stars from me. p.s., you have to do the work if you want to pass. Absolutely no short cuts at all when it comes to the bar exam and the time needed to pass, but Daniel can certainly help!
