I went to Mega for one summer during high school for SAT prep. I didn't get anything out of it. My…read morescore was hovering at 1900, but my parents and I wanted me to break 2000 especially since I was taking the PSAT in the fall. After taking the diagnostic, they realized that I only needed improvement in reading comprehension and writing. So they allowed us to not to pay for the full tutoring session. Despite that, I had no improvement. The homework is like any standard packet. What I needed was someone to teach me techniques. Luckily a guidance counselor (I went to BxSci) recommended another prep school to me (my PSAT score was a 190 so no improvement). That helped me get over a 2100 on the SAT. I suggest that parents looking for good prep courses do some research on the schools they pick. Don't look at just the numbers, but the teachers as well. It can make a really big difference.

I attended Kweller Prep from fourth to fifth grade, and it significantly shaped my academic life. I was accepted to HCHS after taking their Hunter Exam programs, and benefited significantly from the help I received at Kweller during that time. Now, I've come back to tutor at Kweller Prep-the families I work with, the students I teach, and the academic and personal improvement I see within each is a daily reminder of why I love the art of learning. I have Frances Kweller, Ben Davidov, and the whole team at Kweller to thank for everything.

I would not have done as comprehensive a job had I prepared him myself. Kweller provided the structure necessary to get the work done. The weekend check-in created a the deadline. We found the nightly homework more useful than the Zoom, but that could be individual preference. The homework helped highlight what areas my son needed work on. Also, it was helpful to have him practice sitting for a long test. It's not magic. It's practice, practice, practice. Don't expect a child to manage this by themselves. There was quite a bit of parental involvement until we were accustomed to the pacing and log-in. I'm happy we chose to use Kweller and I would use them again.

Our daughter started about a little over 2 1/2 yrs ago, clearly she has been able to exceed the expectations of the program.

My daughter, Alexis has been able to solve challenging problems in advance placement math for H.S. We couldn't be happier with the results our daughter has archive thus far. Thank you Calvin and thank you Eric for your drive, passion and determination to make children succeed and excel. I would highly recommend any parent to send their kids to their after school program.

The teaching is very individualized and Calvin makes sure every student understands the concepts they are struggling with before he moves on. Thanks to Calvin my understanding of advanced physics and math concepts became very clear because he helped me master the basics of the subject first. What stood out was Lamont's writing and essay help. He guided me throughout college applications and applying to programs in college. Due to his assistance, my writing and speaking skills have improved greatly. I got into a top 15 college and landed prestigious summer research internships thanks to Lamont. Lamont helped me with expressing my personal goals in a clear manner, and especially focused on polishing my ideas into a personal statement that really showed who I was outside of my application. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for both writing development and development as a person outside of college applications to work with Lamont, because his ability to help a student self-develop is incredible. 10/10 Definitely go to Lamont and Premier Academy for essay help, you won't regret it!

My son has been attending Mathnasium of Bayside for about three months now as part of this…read moreMathnasium's 8 sessions a month package. Our commute to here is about 30 minutes but I feel it is worth it. There is ample metered street parking. This particular location (Mathnasium is a franchise and each center is privately owned) has what they call pods; three students are assigned to one tutor. I visited a different center where there was one "floating" tutor for the entire time your child is there. For me, this wouldn't have worked as my son needs a little more hands on help and oversight because of lack of ability to focus for long periods of time. Each session is an hour. Children are given binders to keep up with their progress. The center will "test" your child's level and help you determine where they would best fit in beginning their math sessions here. Julie, one of the co-owners of the center, has been more than acommodating to us in tweeking my son's individual plan based on what he is learning now in school. The other Mathnasium I visited noted they would only dedicate 15 minutes to homework. My son tutors with Ron and he's been very happy and says he has been able to learn new techniques from him. It's been three months so thus far am very happy with the center - very friendly, accommodating, polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend to anyone in need of school help.

So this went on and I had to give them 3000 for no reason at all. Workers can blame me but after I don't show up for a month they didn't even THINK of calling to ask if they should cancel it? Even though I told them to cancel my classes. When i asked for the money back they refused even though I didn't take any classes, so essentially they stole from me. No emails, no calls, no warning that they took money from us every month. Teachers are worse than before, they don't teach very well.
