I studied at Dr. Park's Academy for many years. The services that they offer include regular elementary-high school level course tutoring, ACT/SAT prep, college guidance, and even career guidance. They helped me with English and math homework, prepping for standardized tests, and even applying to colleges. Dr. Park is an exceptional mathematics tutor, and he hires highly regarded tutors for other subjects as well. with their help, I graduated from high school near the top of my class, scored a 35 on the ACT, and am now studying electrical engineering at Purdue University on a scholarship. The teaching staff at Dr. Park's Academy genuinely care about your success and growth. I would definitely not be where I am today without their tutilage and guidance. All of the students there are encouraged to be critical thinkers, and to have their sights set on long term goals as they go through the motions of K-12 education. I highly recommend Dr. Park's Academy to any and all students looking to improve themselves, challenge themselves intellectually, and broaden their horizons. read more

Dr. Park's can accommodate to whatever your needs are. He is able to help with SAT/ACT, school subjects, and more. Personally, he helped me get off the ground with studying in school. He helped me build my base and understand the curricula in both science and math, not just memorize it. I then started taking classes in SAT/ACT courses and they helped me a lot. From the time I wasn't taking his classes and one year later when I did take his classes, my PSAT score went up by 300. He hires real teachers and people of validity when he does, and works to give the best education prep he can to his students. I continued to study with Dr. Park, and he helped me get the best scores that I could in SAT and ACT. I was always on top of my schoolwork, and I can honestly say that he was a big part of it. Once I was getting close to applying to college, he helped me get through the toughest parts of it and helped me create the best portfolio I could to appeal to the admissions parties at schools. I eventually through the help of Dr. Park was able to get admission to Brown University with a full scholarship. Even now, he asks me how I am doing, and if I need any help. He isn't just there to give you an education because he needs money, but rather, to help and guide the next generation of students in what they need. He is nice, caring, and understanding of any situation for any student. As a past student, I can say that my grades and test scores definitely went up due to going to the academy. I recommend him fully for any service that you are thinking about getting from him, because it will be the best. Takuma Inoue: Dimond High School '19 and Brown University '23 read more

Dr. Park was a huge help in my academic progress. From elementary to high school, I was able to soar in education (AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, SAT, ACT, etc) with the help of Dr. Park's Academy. In my senior year of high school, I received tremendous help applying to college (Northwestern University, which I will attend this upcoming fall) was difficult but made easier with the help of Dr. Park. The SAT prep helped me achieve a score of 1530 and a 34 in ACT. Furthermore, I was able to participate in group study sessions and private sessions that helped me tremendously in all subjects. Without the help of Dr. Park, taking numerous AP classes in addition to participating in sports and other after-school activities, all while maintaining a good academic performance would not have been possible. Overall, the academy greatly helped me stay on schedule with school (all throughout high school!), test prep (ACT, SAT, other school tests), applying to colleges, and scholarships. read more

When I was in high school preparing for the SATs, I prepped with this company. The academy's college prep program was a great help to me and with it, I was able to get into the colleges I aimed to get into. Despite helping you with SATs, they also were able to help me and give me ideas on how to apply to colleges. The academy wants to help you get into the college that you want to get into and truly care for your education. Although I did not end up attending my top choice colleges due to their high tuition fees and not enough scholarships, I was able to get a very good financial aid packet at Creighton University with a 2-4 Pharmacy program which allowed me to be closer to my goals of going to Pharmacy School. I truly recommend this company. Without their SAT prep class, I don't think I would've been able to get into the college of my choice or get a good scholarship. They stress a good education and prepare you to become a successful person inside and outside of school. read more

I prepped with this company back in the early days before it was a bigger company, and now I tutor here. It's great to see growth. I'm going to give an un-biased report: I scored around a 2300 through prepping here, back when the "new" SAT was new. I took the SAT once on my own and prepped through 2 more SATs here, and after prepping with them, obtained a perfect score on the Writing. I also ACT-prepped here twice and got a 34 (out of 36). The Academy helped plan my academic path early on and naturally, I used their college prep services, and got into Columbia University, University of Chicago, Northwestern, Georgetown, etc (oddly enough, I was waitlisted at University of Washington in St. Louis, though lol). It came down to Columbia and Northwestern, but I ended up going to NU. One thing I must emphasize about their college prep program is that it is truly comprehensive. Like, they help you from A to Z and beyond. Their philosophy is "Let me help you get your kid into his/her Harvard," but they don't stop there. They aggressively focus on scholarships. I got a full ride merit-scholarship into Northwestern (whereas, ivy league schools don't usually give scholarships but are great with financial aid if you need a lot of it). So, at first, I was a bit sad not to go to Columbia, but in the end and looking back, I was really pleased that I walked out of college debt-free AND got a stellar education. (P.S.- back in the day, Columbia was ranked #9 and Northwestern was #11, so it made little difference ranking-wise where I chose to go. In 2013, Columbia is at #4). So, even though I may SOUND biased, I mean, I did walk out with fantastically improved scores, a fantastic college prep package, and got into my absolute top choice schools. I got results--and not just any, but the ones I wanted. I am not writing this because I work here, or because I was asked to. I try to be a very honest person in life, and I would never have chosen to work here if I didn't think their services or philosophy was up to par. The truth is, I decided to teach here because I agree with the philosophy and practices. They truly care about education and each student. I've seen the founders help less privileged students by writing off hours and giving them scholarships, and I saw them do this before the company became bigger--usually the time of initial "company growth" is not the time most business people act so generous. They're not in it for the money, they're in it because education makes the world a better place. Their kids both went to phenomenal undergraduate and graduate programs but are working/will be working in the public service sector. Trust me, and not just because I work here (though, it should encourage you to come, as I did score in the 99% and am one of their best tutors), if you are passionate about your education and being/becoming successful, you want to be here. There is no other place you'd personally want to be, or send your kid. I'll be using their services again for graduate school entrance prep. read more
