I cannot say enough wonderful things about Best Learning Center after school learning academy! From…read morethe moment I walked in, I knew this was a place that truly prioritizes the growth and academic excellence of each student. The teachers are incredibly attentive, taking the time to understand the unique needs and strengths of every student. Their passion for teaching is so evident, and they go above and beyond to make learning fun, engaging, and meaningful. My 1st grader misses his teacher Ms. Emily when either one of them miss a day. It's clear that the center is dedicated to fostering a deep understanding of the subjects they cover, rather than just rote memorization. My child has not only improved academically but has also developed a deeper love of learning. One of the things that stands out the most is the supportive and focused atmosphere. The other children in attendance are equally driven and committed to their studies, which creates a positive, motivating environment. It's a space where kids feel comfortable asking questions, collaborating with peers, and doing their very best. Best Learning Center has truly made a difference in my child's academic journey, and I couldn't be more grateful! I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing, effective after-school program. Special Notes- 1. They are open on additional non-school days (sometimes). 2. They are open until 6pm which helps with my long commute. 3. They have transportation, but are also very close to Arovista Elementary. 4. They match school hours, even early release Wednesdays. 5. Easy to make payment and communicate with Brandon, the learning center director.

Mrs. Kim really cares and connects to each students and I am so happy that I had her as my teacher.

Through Mrs.Kim's guidance, I was able to get into my dream school and she was so supportive and proud of my college decision! Mrs. Kim is more than my teacher but she is also my life mentor: when I have problems in life, she is one of those very few people who I can always reach out to and she will walk me through the situation. I am very lucky and thankful to have met her!! She is the absolute best and I would really seriously recommend going to XLLC!

One of the most convenient things is that they pick up the kids directly after school -- they are always on time, professional, and make safety a top priority.

My daughter has shown amazing improvement with her extra math tutoring, and her confidence has grown so much because of the support she receives here. I'm incredibly grateful for this program and highly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe, clean, and nurturing environment with dedicated teachers who genuinely want their students to succeed

Elite is probably the most radical choice for your childrens' SAT/ACT needs, but if you're not…read morewilling to pay the thousands of dollars for tuition and your child will be unable to handle nearly 5 hours of work, you'll have to think twice. Elite is known to be a extreme form of a cram school similar to that of those in Asia, to instruct children to prepare for the SAT/ACT. It's a common thing everyday to walk into this place, you'll see portraits of very few kids smiling with a list of them getting incredibly high scores, in which also show which school they are attending now, and slogans for success and information about ivy league schools. I get it, this is to show that they've had success educating kids and they're mighty fine proud of that, but let's be honest, it is a little demeaning for other students struggling to make ends meet. In fact, I've overheard a parent teacher conference with the headmaster of this place (I will not say the name for confidentiality), and believe me, I've never heard so much bad mouthing about the student behind his back, such as how he/she is going to fail school and is never going to go to a "good" (which in their level is a Ivy League) school and he'll end up getting a job after high school. In addition, when I had my child go here, the workload was just unbelievable; I don't know whose idea it was, but he/she practically made my child work 5-6 hours on SAT prep material instead of the same school work that takes my child to college (also, if he failed to bring it, he would be subjected to detention/push ups/"demerits"). What is really disturbing is that there are also video cameras in each room and monitored by the staff; I don't care if it there was a stabbing long time ago, it's pretty invasive. Speaking of colleges, these people also look down on students who have no intentions of attending either UC or Ivy Leagues, regardless of the reason. With all due respect, what I really think these people can try to improve on is their perception on reality and realize these students are just kids who are/aren't suited for the tremendous work load provided; does stuffing millions of questions and answers really help? Because I guarantee not every kid they see holds the 300 IQ they are dreaming about. Despite my tone, don't boycott or spit at the headmaster, because even I know these people are trying very hard to trickle one child to get into yale and princeton and it's really difficult to handle a bunch of kids (for the record, I was a tutor for a after school program and THAT was no easy job), especially for the headmaster, who has to deal with few troublemakers; but they should at least give a damn about those who won't make it to the big leagues or have troubles instead of berating them and casting them on the side so the vultures can pick them. Bottom line? Parents, send your children here if you truly fear that your children may not become the next CEO, doctor, lawyer, etc., because this place is the 911 for that emergency; I will not lie that these people will literally work their fingers to the bone to stuff gargantuan amounts of assignments to show to you they really mean business, and that they are probably even better than any SAT/ACT prep schools. However, be cautious, because if you know your child is already struggling with the workload he/she has from school, then plan on your own discretion.

They preach "fairness" and "community," but it's all talk. Certain students get away with everything while others get punished for just existing. The bias here is so obvious it's actually kind of impressive how little they try to hide it. Teachers? Some are great, but they're stuck under clueless management that plays favorites and ignores real problems. Communication is trash, discipline is inconsistent, and they somehow make simple things into full-blown disasters. Honestly, if you're looking for a school that actually cares about all its students -- keep looking. Arbor's management could use a serious reality check (and maybe a new dictionary to look up "fairness").

It is more a collective of parents who think they understand how to run a learning environment but are wholly unprepared to do so. There are no written policies which allows them to create rules at any time and make any decision about your child's schooling. There is no avenue for parents to advocate for your child or come to a fair resolution. Your child can be told they are in violation of rules that you don't even know existed. In addition, your student can be accused of a violation and the school administration will not even bother to speak to you or your student to get the full story. There is no attempt to be fair or impartial. Once the school decides they don't like your student, your student is done there. Some of the teachers are great but the school is run so poorly that it is not worth the money. Send your child anywhere else.
