You have to go in and meet with the center manager and listen to the spiel and not until the end do you get the costs. You have to buy blocks of 50 hours of tutoring at around $90/hour, which means you don't get out of there for under about $4,500.00. Of course, this is paid up front. You can pay for tutoring by the hour, but that is $105.00/hour. Under both scenarios, in that hour they can have up to three students in the tutoring session. Wow! Someone is making a lot of money. Is it the tutors? No. I looked at Glassdoor and the tutors make between $20 to $25 per hour. So, if you do the math, the center is getting up to $315/hour and paying the tutor $25? Caching! Obviously, we didn't sign on, so this is not an entirely fair review. That's why they get a 3. Because they wasted an hour of my time. Maybe their services are really worth that much. I'll never know.

We had a fantastic experience with Lisa. My oldest was applying to middle schools in Washington…read morethat were very competitive to get into and required our daughter to do the SSAT test. She was underprepared and we only had a few months to get ready. Lisa met with my daughter 10 times over a few months and dramatically improved her scores and confidence. She did this with incredible kindness and empathy for the stress of the process my daughter was going through. I would highly recommend Lisa to any parent whose child is preparing for the SSAT (or SAT for that matter).

My family has had the good fortune to work with Mazor Test Prep on tutoring for the ISEE entrance…read moreexam when my children were in 5th grade and applying to private schools, on the AP exams as they made their journey through high school, and on the SATs as they prepared for college. The proof is in their success-my kids scored in the high 80 and 90 percentiles on their ISEEs, were accepted to their private schools of choice, and earned 5s on AP Physics and Calculus exams. My son is a senior, and with Lisa's guidance, achieved a 1530 on the SAT, missing only one math question-no superscore, just one test. Thus far, he has not been turned down by any of the top-tier engineering programs to which he has applied. My younger child is now working diligently with Lisa to maximize his SAT scores as he prepares for college applications in the fall. What makes this all the more impressive is the fact that both my children have dyslexia and dysgraphia-school has not come easy for them. Whether working directly with Lisa or one of her expert team members, you can expect compassion, professionalism, flexibility, and a commitment to meet your child at his or level, emotionally and academically. Lisa and her team are exacting and demanding, but with an understanding that kids' anxiety levels and workloads fluctuate through the school year and need to be taken into consideration and adapted to. Working with Lisa, I felt supported as a parent, and more importantly, I knew that while my children were working hard, they too felt supported. My kids have tried preparing for standardized tests using workbooks and online/in-person group classes, but both report the one-on-one experience they have had with Lisa and her team to be the game-changer. Not only are Lisa and her team effective, they are kind! I have enjoyed all my interactions with them, and the kids do not balk when it is time to get down to work. They also feel motivated to get their work done between sessions, so they are prepared for their next meeting-with no helicoptering from me. This is how test prep should be.

This review is based on a few interactions that I had with Bill recently while I was interested in…read morebecoming his French Student. I ended up not becoming a student of his, because he and I agreed that it was not the best personality fit. So, please keep in mind that I am reviewing Bill from that rather limited experience with him. That being said, I am still giving Bill a 5 star review because I could tell that he takes French tutoring very seriously and that he puts his all into his tutoring sessions. I also thought that Bill was very prompt and professional in his communication with me. I would recommend only reaching out to Bill if you are ready to schedule right away (otherwise he may fill your preferred slot with someone else within 24 - 48 hours!) and also only if you already have an internet speed of 100 mbps or higher. Bill requires this internet speed in order to tutor someone via Zoom calls, because he wants to minimize the chances of tech issues such as freezing and dropped calls. This requirement seems reasonable to me, and it makes sense. My internet speed was 50 mbps when I first reached out to him, and shortly after Bill informed me about his internet speed requirement, I scheduled with my internet provider to come out and change my internet speed to 400 mbps. This was something that I figured was a good idea to get done anyway, even though I was already starting to get the sense that Bill wasn't the best fit for me personality-wise. The first available appointment that my internet provider had for me was one week after I called them. Well before my internet provider came out to change my internet speed to fit Bill's requirement, Bill had already filled the scheduling spot that I'd been interested in with someone else. None of Bill's other open spots in his schedule suited my schedule, and, as I have already mentioned, this was not a good personality fit, so I had a brief, pleasant, professional communication exchange with Bill in this vein, and Bill and I pleasantly wished each other well. Bill referred me to the L'Alliance Francaise for a French tutor, a solid and reasonable recommendation. The reason that I did not feel that it is a good personality fit is that I tend to be more laid-back (although I am very reliable) and Bill to me came across as extremely high-pressure, which I don't like and don't thrive around. I'm very self-motivated, and extremely high-pressure to me seems unnecessary, off-putting, and overboard. However, if you are more the type who either doesn't mind high-pressure personalities and/or needs a kick in the rear to get things done, Bill may be a perfect fit for you. Last note, Bill's schedule is almost completely full so he is in very high demand as a tutor - and he will let you know that! It's nice that Bill is in high demand. I think that how someone handles a bad personality fit speaks volumes about their character, and I thought Bill handled it well.
