This is a wonderful place to ensure your child gains confidence in their mathematical abilities!…read more We tried several of the normal tutoring places such as Kumon and Sylvan but for a young learner my daughter didn't feel comfortable. Mrs. Annette quickly won my daughter over with her cheerful disposition and was able to test my daughter without so much as one frown. She thought the test was fun and eagerly anticipated her first tutoring session at Mathnasium! I like you can get your money's worth by visiting as many times as you want Monday-Thursday and on Saturday mornings. My daughter loves working with Mrs. Sharon especially as the woman has the patience of Job! She loves the small learning groups, math games, and that you can earn treats (candy and toys) for work completion. Math has become my daughter's favorite subject with her grade going from a low C to a high A. She readily volunteers to solve problems in class where she once had complete meltdowns in class. Her third quarter report card indicated that she has mastery of all of her grade level standards except two so the teacher commented that she would focus on those two standards and allow my daughter to start working on the next grade level!

At the end of the last school year she was convinced that she was ready for Algebra 1 in the Fall so I asked her to complete an Algebra assessment exam at Mathnasium to confirm that she was ready. The assessment clearly showed that she was not at all ready and showed her the skills she needed to work on. Mathnasium developed a program that targeted these and she went to Mathnasium over the summer to work on them. We are now well into the first semester of the school year and she is making close to an A in Algebra 1. I can't thank Annette and the rest of the Mathnasium team enough for helping her!!

When Dr. Murray was still president of CIU, he announced in chapel one year (I believe my sophomore…read moreyear so this would be around 2006-2007) that CIU had received a tremendous financial gift of $4 million. That same day, numerous administrative staff, I believe 8 people, were laid off. In the summer of my sophomore year, I received word from my professor that the CIU Performing Arts Department had been cut due to financial reasons. Later, a proposal for building a gymnasium was approved. When students mentioned these discrepancies, it was explained that there were different financial "buckets" and what had been placed in one "bucket" could not be used for another, particularly when donors were giving to a particular cause, in this case the building of a gymnasium and the establishment of an athletics department. I don't know if the donors brought the idea to the university, or if the university brought the idea to the donors, but the fact that the real financial situation was not disclosed to them and made the priority is deeply troubling. This also doesn't explain the fact that, according to friends of mine who used to work for the Kirkland prison initiative, finances that were raised specifically for the prison initiative then were not used for that. In 2013, weeks after my friend's young spouse passed away, they were laid off, while the university continued to grow its sports program. There was the belief that athletics would bring in the resources to help the university solve it's financial problems. Apparently this turned out to be a losing bet, as this summer, 2016, 4 faculty members and numerous staff were laid off. All of this indicates a deeply troubling pattern of financial mismanagement, a pouring of resources and energy into the wrong solutions, and mistreatment of CIU's greatest asset: its faculty and staff. I have only reported here what I have experienced firsthand or what I have heard directly from someone who has experienced it, but I have heard inklings here and there of other issues as well, but those are for others to share and confirm. I also have friends who are former employees who had to, in order to receive severance, sign a contract stating they would not speak negatively about the university, which is alarming. This and other things CIU has been doing may technically be legal, but legal technicalities are not the high standard an institution purporting to follow Christ should be holding itself to. I recently received a voicemail from a CIU staff member named Greta Clinton asking for donations to help fund student scholarships and teacher salaries. This is what CIU should have been soliciting all along, but for the reasons stated above I have zero faith that any dime I donate would go to it's intended cause. I cannot in good conscience donate to this university, nor can I recommend it to any prospective students because I do not believe their hard-earned tuition dollars will be used effectively.

My first experience with Midlands Tech was a shit show!…read more After my acceptance, I received a phone call and was informed to attend registration "at any campus at 8 am". I never received an email with further steps. I arrived at the Harbison campus promptly, only to be directed to the Beltline campus because Harbison's one advisor didn't arrive til "around 8:30". I drove to Beltline and was directed to the Airport campus, because Beltline did not offer advising for my major (Nursing/Pre health). The system that awaited me at Airport was incompetent and unprofessional. After excessive wait times I met with two separate advisors, only to then be directed to another office to fill out more incomplete paperwork. FIVE, I kid you not, five hours later, I am only able to be registered for one class. This process would have been so much more efficient if communication between students and staff was better, as well as communication between each office (admissions and registration, specifically). The staff members I had the unfortunate opportunity of working with were not helpful or competent. I hope this frustrating day of jumping through hoops is no indication of my coming student experience. I normally don't write reviews but after this exasperating experience, I had to share!

The school is in Lexington County School District 2, and was opened in 1931. It is historic based on how long has been in operation, the front entrance looks old but updated.

It is updated very well at the football facility they've done a good job keeping up with the times. I did not see the baseball, track, student parking from my vantage.
