We engaged Maria to work with our son, Robby just past half way through his 3rd Grade year. He had…read morebeen diagnosed as ADHD and was struggling to adjust to the ever increasing expectations. His grades had gone from A's and B's in 2nd Grade to C's and D's and F's in Third. Robby's motivation was down. He was repeated stating that he wasn't smart (not the case!) and that he didn't like school. My wife and I were a bit at wits end as to what to do. Additionally, Ohio has a high stakes test at the end of the 3rd grade that every student must pass in order to advance to the 4th grade. Maria really turned that around. She focused on developing strategies that he could implement to succeed at his day to day school work as well as better understand the context of the lessons. Additionally she gave him tools to help with focusing, always a challenge with an 8 yr old boy! Within a few weeks we began to see positive results. By the beginning of the 4th quarter his teachers had noticed a positive change in Robby's behavior and motivation and he achieved an award for academic excellence in the 4th quarter. He stopped saying he couldn't do things and he looked forward to going to school. Oh, and he passed the final exam without issue. We were disappointed that Maria moved to Atlanta as it would have been fabulous to have her work with Robby next year. (Just for context - Maria worked with Robby 2 times a week most weeks and 3 times a week to prep for the final exam from early February through the end of May.)

I am very impressed with how Maria works with kids, she encourages them to do their best.read more

Warning to Parents - Please Read Before Considering This Tutor…read more I normally wouldn't write something like this, but I feel a responsibility to speak up, especially when the care of children is involved. This woman has repeatedly harassed me and my family online over something that happened decades ago, before I was even born -- a tragic incident involving my mother. Rather than handling her grief in a mature and private way, she has chosen to publicly attack, target, and bully people who had no involvement. This kind of behavior is deeply concerning, especially from someone offering tutoring services to children. Emotional instability, a lack of boundaries, and the inability to separate personal vendettas from professional life are serious red flags. Parents deserve to know who they are trusting around their kids. Please think twice before putting your child in the hands of someone who behaves like this. Harassment and hate on someone like myself (20 years old) are not qualities anyone should want in an educator.

Exceptional College level Calculus Tutoring - Highly Recommended!…read more We first reached out to Ashley, who set my son up with David Lazada. As a college student struggling with calculus, my son was extremely worried and not feeling confident about the class. He struggled with the course early on in his first year of college and ended up having to drop the course. Because the course is a required course for his degree plan, he had to enroll again as a senior. He took the course as a summer course, which made it even tougher due to the condensed time frame. From the first session, David had a remarkable ability to connect well with our son, break down complex concepts and explain them in a way that is both understandable and engaging. David was patient, encouraging, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our son grasped the material. He was able to tailor the sessions to our specific needs and learning style, which made a significant difference in my son's confidence and performance. David committed time daily, and even weekends to help ensure our son's success. I received updates often as a parent, and was able to ask questions at any time throughout the period of time he was getting help. Thanks to David and Tutor Revolution, our son was able to achieve a passing grade, that he really did not think was possible.

Central to my East Dallas abode, on the northeast corner of Abrams and Mockingbird...Hillside Village for those in the know, nestled between Steinmart and Lakewood's 1st and 10 (excellent place to park as you wait for your spawn's lesson to finish). In a nutshell, Sarah is the broker between aspiring and broke musicians. She provides beautiful studio spaces and matches teachers to students. So far, so good, but you do pay for the overhead of studio space. Lessons are a bit (but not much) more than in home lessons.

I never do this but this place has me hoping mad. I tried…read moreto sign up for guitar lessons for my daughter. I received a confirmation on the time and date, mind you this place has strict rules on not showing up and prepaying for lessons, showed up for the lesson only to find out that Sarah had booked a second student for that time and the teacher was in with another student. We waited 10 minutes for someone to help us try and figure out the situation but the only people there were other teachers who did not know how to get a hold of Sarah. We went home and I checked my email and found that Sarah had sent a confirmation and changed the time to 4:30 instead of 4pm which had been on all the previous emails. We jumped back in the car and rushed back to her studios got there on time for a 4:30 guitar lesson and again the teacher had a different student scheduled and took them back and just told us sorry. No one could find Sarah to speak to me. I decided to take a break and try to find another guitar teacher. But then emailed Sarah again a few weeks later and asked her to sign us up for Guitar and voice lesson. We had one lesson last week and then this week I get an email half an our before our lesson time canceling on us because the teacher cannot make it. NO phone call just an email. Thank goodness I was right at my computer when it came in. But thats not the best part of this here is the email exchange from today. I cannot believe it. My advise is find somewhere else to take music lessons. On 11/12/14 3:19 PM, "studio" sarah@stroutstudios.com x-msg://155/sarah@stroutstudios.com wrote: HI Tracy, I am so sorry for the late notice.

Thanks so much, Sarah Strout Talley On Nov 12, 2014, at 3:22 PM, Tracy Nymeyer Re: Olivia's lesson today Ok then we need to cancel the voice lesson too. Please let the teacher know. Also Olivia does not want to take voice at this time she hated that class but loved the guitar class. She is too shy to sing in public she says. I know you have strict rules for last minute cancelations but I hope that since you have cancelled on me last minute that I will be allowed to cancel the voice lesson. Thank you, Tracy Nymeyer On 11/12/14 3:46 PM, "studio" sarah@stroutstudios.com wrote: Dear Tracy, So sorry for your disappointment. The fact that you enrolled for voice where we scheduled you a lesson during the week is a very different cancelation then one of our teachers having an emergency and not being able to come in. We never cancel lesson without offering a make up (as in Nick's lesson today) When you enroll in a lesson you are reserving a spot with one of our teacher for the semester, unless you give the studio 30 days notice that you will be withdrawing. I feel that you are not or have not been happy with our studio from the beginning. Hearing from you that Olivia "hated" her voice lesson is not what we want to hear and feel that maybe we are not a good fit for your family. I haven't received payment from you for lessons( November) so lets call it even and not continue with either guitar or voice lessons. We are so sorry we were disappointing to you. Thanks so much, Sarah Strout Talley Baffled I wrote back to Sarah: When I signed up you took my cc for payment on your system, I thought you were billing automatically. Olivia did not hate the teacher just having to sing in public. But you seem to have made your mind up and don't want us at the studio. I was more than happy to pay for my lessons and thought I had signed up for you to bill my cc. If you need me to give you 30 day notice then that is not a problem on the voice but it has certainly been very difficult working with your studio and things seem to have been a challenge at my inconvenience but when I say I don't want to come today after you cancel on me all of a sudden you are kicking us out. If you don't want Olivia back then let me know. Thank you, Tracy

They leaned all their weight against the babies when washing their faces in the sink (which can injure their organs), lifted them by one arm (which can dislocate their shoulder), grabbed them aggressively, shoved food in their mouths aggressively, made them stay in their cribs for several hours, yelled at them for wanting to get up or for crying, swaddled them when that's against the law in daycare, and spent a lot of time texting & talking on their phones instead of watching the babies. The Lead Teacher in the Toddler Room was very impatient & squeezed their shoulders when they didn't obey, instead of using redirection. I explained these things to the director, but she said, "It's going to be a lot of work to replace those teachers." I later asked her what she was going to do about the incidents & she said her lawyer told her not to talk to me about it, so I reported the incidents to Child Care Licensing. They visited the school, but weren't able to do anything because I didn't have pictures or videos. I asked the director to install cameras, but she said no.

Damon is the most welcoming, accepting, and encouraging human being I've literally ever met. I never ever felt even a smidge inadequate with him, even though I knew and could do so little starting out. He led me to breakthrough after breakthrough with my voice and music as a whole. I'm by no means a professional, but that was never the goal. The goal was to have fun, challenge myself, learn something different, and feel secure in my voice. I accomplished all of that under Damon's knowledgeable guidance. Today, performing for the first time in front of anyone besides Damon, was just one more breakthrough to add to the stack, and by now, I'm not even surprised. This has been an absolutely magical ride.
