While the tutors are tutoring other kids, you will be just working on your own little worksheet. Tutors are pretty knowledgeable, but some of their personalities are so dull that you will have hard time learning from your mistakes. So after about 6 months, my score only rose up from 1600 to 1850. For the amount of money and time spent, it's worthless to get into top schools. You are much better off going to wyzant.com and finding a private tutor from there. As that's what I decided to do. I dropped SAT and decided to study ACT instead. My score rose from 26 to 31 in less than 3 months.

Our experience with this C2 center has been top rate. Our daughter, who goes to Johns Creek High…read moreSchool, did her SAT preparation here and was able to raise her scores significantly in both the aptitude test and the subject tests. She had perfect scores in Math and Writing as well as in Physics and Math subject tests. C2 also helped her with the PSAT where she is a National Merit Semifinalist at this stage. The guidance and tutoring at this C2 center was invaluable throughout. She received early admission to the Princeton University class of 2018. Earlier, in 2009, our son, who went to Northview High School, was also able to raise his test scores significantly with the help of this C2 center. He is in Princeton's class of 2014. The unique approach of this center is that the Director, the support staff and the tutors work together to provide individual attention and tailor the program to the student's needs. The tutors are highly qualified and they work with the student's to understand their individual needs. The center is also flexible to the best of their ability in class scheduling around numerous other activities in and out of our children's high schools. All in all, we could not have had a better experience. Over the years, we have recommended this center to our friends and all had a similar high-quality experience. We highly recommend this C2 center to other students and their parents.

Kumon is a math and reading learning center. Kumon provides lots and lots of pre-made material for…read morethe kids to go through where it seems like the main method of learning is repetition and working on problem after problem. We enrolled the kids starting in the upper elementary school grades through about 9th grade. While it's hard to know what really works when it comes to learning, I believe the program does work in that it helped my kids have another way of solving math problems than how they are being taught in the public schools (which are actually excellent in congressional district 6 of Georgia). For instance my daughter in high school was able to show the teacher how she knows how to solve a whole new section of problems they are just learning in high school that she previously learned in Kumon. She said the teacher didn't know the Kumon method of solving the problem and that it works for all variations. So my daughter was up at the front of the class showing the class on the whiteboard how she solved a few of the new problems and she got them all correct. Why 3 stars? I asked my daughter out of 5 stars how she would rate Kumon and she said she would give it 3 stars. Mostly because it's a learning center and not a tutoring center. Also the Kumon way of solving problems was different than the way my daughter was being taught in school. And the school wasn't accepting the Kumon method of solving the math problems when asked to show work. But I think that knowing multiple ways to solve math problems is a good thing. And I know my kids benefited from the math solving procedures they learned at Kumon.

Director needed to find out from other parents in order to set up camps. There were multiple communications back and forth over a 2 month period, where director informed me there would be only 1 week of camp available which will take place the last week of July. I said I would like to sign my kids up and to please let me know if it will be morning or afternoon session. Director said I would be informed as the week gets closer. Sent email Friday, 7/22 asking for update since I had not heard anything since last conversation about 2 weeks ago. Received a call from Director indicating there will no camp due to lack of interest. SERIOUS?!?! To be notified 3 days before camp is supposed to start is poor customer service. Now, I need to find camp for my kids on Monday with so little time. This business is a learning center supposed to help kids with academic success and provide personal attention, yet there is a lack of organization in simple scheduling and communication, which is an indicator for me as to how well they would really help my kids.

It is so nice to relax in the evenings and not have to deal with homework struggles! In addition to homework assistance, the tutors also help my child prepare for upcoming tests and will even quiz her to make sure she understands the material. The tutors (along with Carol the director), are knowledgeable, professional and helpful. It is obvious they genuinely care about my child's success. They treat us like family, often going over and above to accommodate us. The facility itself is a wonderful learning environment... clean, bright, colorful modern facility with a designated computer area, reading nook and private study rooms. The door between the lobby and classroom is securely locked, which is a wonderful safety feature I haven't seen at other afterschool tutoring programs. Overall, Homework Central offers a great afterschool program which I highly recommend.

Our son went here for just under 6 months. He absolutely loved the friendly staff. They are almost…read moreentirely all High school students. I really hoped he would have improved significantly here especially paying so much per a month. After going here every single day it was opened, for over 4 months he did not progress out of long addition and subtraction, and multiplication (multiplication was why we enrolled him) as a 4th grader. He did occasionally make mistakes and since it was not 100% he could not move forward in his work curriculum. We did end up moving over an hour away and other franchises have different rules and prices, like 6- sessions per a month etc. All and all he loved going there and enjoyed math but if he would have advanced in his course work we would have still drove him from an hour away, since he had fun. But in the end I ended up tutoring him to get him where he needed to be. The required assessment test is $100 then sign up fees, then tuition is required to start. Hope this helps.

For…read more~2-3 months of picking him up and him telling us they worked on math that my 3rd grader is currently doing (and that he had no issue doing on the pre-test they give, ie multiplication facts of 2's, 7's, etc). I told him to speak up and let them know he didn't need to work on that but to help him with what they were actually working on in school. I spoke to the manager when I dropped him off and she was kind and took the pages out of his "curriculum book" as well as marked off that he did not need to do those things. I thought this was it. NOPE! We took in one day for help with some homework. He had only completed 2 problems during the hour he was there and said the lady gave him a sheet of their work vs helping him with his homework...that he still did not understand. I then asked to speak with the head guy, Justin, who called me the next day. He proceeded to laugh and tell me my son was "pulling one over on" and lying to me b/c they were not doing those multiplication problems with him. He also told me that he should be there for 1.5 hours 2-3 days/week in 6th grade. My son was being released at 1 hour to leave on the days we took him and would be waiting at the front door when we picked him up. He told me for the first time that it is their policy to work on their curriculum and only do homework for 30 minutes and only work on school quiz information for limited amount of time because they worked on their curriculum. "We are not a tutoring service". This information was not made clear when we signed up- otherwise we would never have enrolled. After a good 30 minutes on the phone with him insisting that my son was lying to me, he found where the sheets had been pulled and admitted that. We agreed there may have been some miscommunication. I thought we were all good but with summer decided to freeze the account b/c May has been too crazy for us to get him there and we will be gone June and July. Today I got a call from Melanie about a 1 star review I had given on an email I rec'd from them. When I called her back she said she wanted to discuss this and get more insight into why I was dissatisfied. When I tried to talk to her and tell her my concerns, she began to speak over me and would not pause to hear me out. She proceeded to give me the option to terminate and pay them the difference of the 3 months membership fee (which is more than the 6 months so we would owe them more money) vs continuing for 2 months in the fall. I tried to again tell her my issues and she would not stop talking to hear me out and told me that she only needed to know what I wanted to do- the 2 options above or turn me into collections if we refused either. Lesson learned- do not sign up for something like this with a contract b/c they ultimately do not care if you are satisfied- you are under contract. Since dealing with this I have talked to some other people with similar experiences. Bottom line- save your money and hire a HS or college student to help your child with grade level, schoolwork they need help on. I have never dealt with such poor customer service in my life.
