I have been working with the Tutor Genius for 2 years now. First for test prep for my 4th grader…read moreand later I added general tutoring and academic support for my 4th grader and 6th grader. The tutors are top notch - both experienced, professional. Reza is awesome, he has paired me with tutors and is flexible and totally receptive to our needs and schedule changes. He gives you bios of tutors and you get to select your tutor and for any reason if it doesn't work out, you can change to another tutor. So far, I have only received the best tutors and never had any issue except for some minor scheduling issues that came up on my end and Reza resolved right away. It is nice to have a tutoring company that truly cares about each student and not just about collecting your money. The payment policy is also great because you get a discount for prepaid packages and if for any reason you need to cancel, you get your money back for the unused credits. I went to a bunch of other tutoring centers that charged much more and they had strict policies of buying prepaid and non refundable packages. I felt uncomfortable taking the risk of buying a huge package and not knowing if I liked the place. Also, with tutor genius the tutors come to your home which saves me the drive. All around convenient. Would recommend over and over again.

I'm writing this from a parent's perspective. My son is in 9th grade and goes to Modus for both ACT…read moreprep (bootcamp this past spring and then again this coming summer) AND college counseling. There are a million places that it is almost overwhelming. I've come to realize that many "hagwans" (learning centers) outright lie about what they can deliver and are totally shady. I liked Modus because Esther and Josephine were down to earth and very realistic. I really liked their approach and genuineness. I realize that not all 9th graders are prepared to take the ACT, but since his math is already advanced, I wanted him to get exposure to the test so he could see what he was in for. I had him go in a take the diagnostic test, which he scored well enough to make it into the spring bootcamp. My son REALLY enjoyed it. He liked learning the strategies and tips that he learned. I registered him for the upcoming summer bootcamp because HE wanted to go. Regarding college counseling with Esther. Again, I realize he is a bit young, but I wanted him to get an idea of what he needs to do. Esther spent time with him one-on-one and was able to pull so much out of him (I'm still amazed at how she was able to do it). She put together an amazing plan for him with some really excellent ideas. They seem to really relate well with students - my son thinks they are pretty cool, which is saying a lot. He went to other places and hated it, so I'm glad he has had a great experience. If you are looking to give your child an academic advantage, but with caring and genuine people, then I highly recommend Modus. UPDATE: My son's test scores improved DRAMATICALLY by attending the Summer ACT Bootcamp. I am extremely pleased with his scores and he really enjoys it, which is important.

Thanks to Isaac Kim's help, I improved my ACT score greatly, especially in science. However, it is…read moreclear that he has a lot of experience with all subjects. His expertise goes beyond what you can get out of any prep book. And I don't think I could've scored as well without his help. I learned to portion my time and he gives special techniques and hints which he developed himself. Also, he was very open to questions and he was very kind and approachable. So don't be afraid to ask questions and I guarantee, he will give you a very personalized experience. Also, my college counselor, Esther really found extracurricular activities for me that I really enjoyed and pertained to my major. She also helped me brainstorm ideas for my essays and personally, my common app essay turned out to be really unique and my personality shined through. And it was very out of the box which colleges really loved. She helped me get into so many great schools like Boston College, Carnegie Mellon University, UCLA, and Georgetown University. Overall, my experience with all of the staff at Modus (it was called Edugroup before) has made my college application process much more enjoyable and less stressful and I think I learned more about myself through this process. I really recommend Modus!

I love SNAP Education. Words cannot describe how wonderful this place is. It is to the point I…read morewould work here along with the wonderful manager/ director​/ teacher/ genius​/ brother-like person, Steven Kim. The first hour I stepped​ into this place, which was the conference, he opened my eyes to see the bigger picture of my future. I changed my direction completely since then. To be honest, I was a pretty lazy student. I was one of those students who would do their homework during school, the day that it is due. Currently, I have improved on procrastination ​and learned to do my task responsibly. There is​ a lot to learn from this place. I am taking the SAT fall course, which is a twelve-week​ program that consists of English course and Math course specifically for SAT. However, they are not so restricted to​ class time or subject, but rather they try to help as much as possible. The director, Steven Kim, who would be reading this soon or later, told me that I can email him anytime for ANY questions. So I did. You know, "Bank For Your Buck" right? I personally do my homework pretty late, so often times I emailed him at like one in the morning. I don't know how but he did respond couple minutes later. Honestly, there are no other tutors that would do this. Not naming any place but the tutor I used to go to would cut off the class time right as it ends. And because there were like almost 10 students in each class, the teacher did not have close attention to the student's performance level. Which is why I quit, but this place is better. Way better. I recommend it to every student​ out there, I mean, I even recommended to some of my friends in my school, which is something I don't really do. To go into​ more detail about the program I take, it consists of three times a week classes along with "Practice SAT simulations" every Saturday​. This was pretty cool. He tells you to "come by 7:40 and 7:45 by the latest" and the eat the same thing as you would on a real SAT and dress the same way (which he recommends sweatpants and zip-up jacket classic), and even sleep at the same time as you would on a real SAT. Like what kind of teacher would care so much that he would care about the food we eat? Other than the Saturday tests, there are the classes during the weekdays​, which are pretty fun, ​to be honest. I took the class along with Ruth and Brent, who probably would be posting a review soon (don't ask me why I know this), and as we get the job done, he passes the here and there. Other than the fact that he didn't know what "HOCO (short for homecoming)" was it was all good. The original schedule was Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but after seeing that we needed help also on writing, he voluntarily added another session on Thursday (every other week), with no additional charge. Also, ​he let us come in for extra help on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Also at​ no additional charge. Ya know, "Bank For Your Buck." You could probably tell by now that it is a quote from Steven. He has many other infamous quotes that would probably stick with you by the end of the session. "If all else fails, plug it in" is another. I love this place so much that I am coming back for another session. Not for SAT again, because he probably won't​ accept me ^^, but for chemistry. The Course subject can be customized​​ by your likings.You can ask for Biology, Chemistry, Math, English, Writing... All you have to do is just ask. Also, ​there is this one student that he keeps on talking about. I wish I could meet this infamous "SangJun," but as of right now, I didn't. I can't forget about the pretty English teacher, Yoomi. She is so good at English, I respect her so much. I learned so much from her in terms of writing. My initial score was pretty low, but I saw instant improvement as I took her class. One of the most close-to-perfect teachers​ I've seen in my entire life. To talk about Steven, man, this will never end. He is funny, and "nice" well, that's​ how he describes himself. I think differently, but... I mean... He is SO nice. I was totally just kidding. ^^. He may bash on you couple times, but its all for your improvement. I think.​.. But he uses his own personal money to buy you food. When I improved 100 points on my practice SAT's he got me a Starbucks gift card​. I should've asked for a pencil. He got us chipotle, and kinda threatened us...​ I mean encouraged us to memorize the vocab. As an​ experienced student, I really recommend memorizing your vocab. You'll thank me later :). but all jokes aside, he is really a great teacher. He will teach you from the basic if you don't know, as long as you try as well. So Please this place out. You probably won't​ regret. Oh and don't forget to say "CHAEYOON RECOMMENDED SO I CAME." :) If You read all the way till here, you could probably tell that I love this place. ok steven gimme my pencil now. JKJK All of the above were written and approved by chaeyoon syin. :))

Personally, I have been to many tutors but SNAP comes out on top. As a student who recently…read morefinished the summer SAT program, I learned a lot from the teachers at SNAP. Despite the summer program being eight weeks long, Steven as well as Yoomi teacher were more than willing to put in extra time to make sure we would be able to score well on the SAT. Steven helped each and everyone of the students to get on top of their game. Other tutors may sugar coat their advice, which in turn wouldn't motivate you into actually working, but Steven was different. He put in a lot of effort to understand how all the students were like and would call us in with our parents on certain days critiquing us on what we needed to do not only for the SAT but also for our lives. I may not have been in such a good mood when he was telling me that I needed to focus more and have some ambition, but I knew Steven was telling me this to help me and it did. Steven told me this on a Monday, so I had a couple more days till Thursday when we took our next practice SAT. With Steven's advice and my added effort my score jumped by 110 points.
