Our daughter worked with Sandi last year to navigate the college application process and optimize her opportunities. From start to finish, Sandi and her team engaged with, motivated and partnered with our daughter, inspiring her to put her best foot forward and guiding her through the maze to find success. She's now through her first semester at her target school and loves it! I highly recommend Collegewise and believe the return is well worth the investment.

We are on our second round of Collegewise for our second daughter. Without a doubt, the cost is…read morewell worth it for us. For our first one, Collegewise was a diplomatic buffer between our daughter and us during her high school years. This can be a very emotional and tense time for many families. They kept her on track with crucial deadlines and talked us through endless Q&As. For our second one, Collegewise has been an incredibly responsive resource whenever we have a question...no matter how insignificant it may seem. They have a ton of resources but we never feel overwhelmed with information. We have complete access to their knowledge base and never feel rushed when we have a meet up. Collegewise basically hand holds us through the entire application process personalizing their guidance according to our daughter's situation. Most importantly, Collegewise encourages their students to be proactive and take ownership of their application process which ultimately grows them as individuals regardless of which college they choose to attend.

Teaching skills ranging from from simplified SAT techniques to hone in sections I was strong in and more unconventional methods to bring out strengths I didn't know I had, he not only helped me raise my SAT score 170 points, but he also got me past the aversion to math and statistics I'd had throughout high school! Past being an amazing teacher, his warm and hilarious personality hits you right away. When you tell him something -- whether a story about your family, a college you're working to go to, a movie you liked, or a dream career -- he will remember. He is a strong teacher and a valued friend, and I couldn't recommend him enough.

We saw noticeable growth not only in her understanding of the material, but also in her confidence. I would highly recommend Tutor Nerds to other parents looking to provide their students with additional academic support at a reasonable cost. It was a very positive experience for our family.

The process of preparing for college applications was overwhelming, but the guidance we received made all the difference. Felicia, who worked directly with my daughter, was outstanding, supportive, knowledgeable, and always encouraging. She helped keep everything organized and made sure my daughter felt confident every step of the way. She was always there for my daughter when she needed her. Justin, the owner, has clearly built a wonderful program that truly supports students and families. We're thrilled that my daughter was accepted into the university she had been hoping for, and we're very thankful for their role in helping make that happen. Very Highly recommend.

Blueprint checks all of those boxes and goes beyond what I could have expected. For teaching, I was lucky to have Ross Rinehart. He made every class fun and interesting, created a healthy learning environment for students of all backgrounds, and took the time to give detailed feedback to all of my questions even after the course was finished. The curriculum is also very approachable and provides a roadmap for understanding each question type on the LSAT. This progression is greatly enhanced by the weekly trainings and homework problems that are automatically loaded into your account. The material will not come simply by attending the classes but if you trust the process and commit to completing the work you will make tremendous progress. Finally, the platform is phenomenal! It is very easy to track your progress, stay motivated, and get detailed explanations for each question. Having a video breakdown of almost all LSAT games was incredibly helpful when working through problems as well as the detailed explanations provided for each wrong answer choice and why they were incorrect. The platform also has an arbitrary point system that at first seems unnecessary but eventually becomes an excellent motivational tool that helped me stay on track with my studies. I would recommend this class to anyone regardless of whether you choose to do in person or online. My score was improved by over 20 points and I really believe the class is worth it!

I attended the German School Campus Easter Egg Hunt & Spring Festival at Old World Village, booked…read morethrough Eventbrite, and it was a disaster. The so-called activities were just two stations--egg painting and sack throwing at cans--and the "prizes" were Dum Dum pops. There was no direction, and staff offered zero help. The egg hunt itself was unsafe: eggs dumped in a tiny bush area marked with caution tape and caused kids to be pushed and piled up with nowhere to go. From the very beginning, when we approached staff entering the event, specifically Ursula, she was extremely rude and left us not knowing what to do. We couldn't participate or enjoy anything and left early. This event was nothing like advertised. I will never attend again.

We were told you have to have 5 stamps to participate in the easter egg hunt. We were basically forced to go to all the stations which not all kids actually enjoyed and lines were very long. In the end, no one really checked if kids had 5 stamps. After hours of waiting, there were not enough eggs for the kids and a lot of them left crying and frustrated. It was very confusing for parents and the kids and it was disorganized. It was a complete disaster. If this was a reflection of how you run any type of event, I would be very concerned for those who would enroll in your school.
