Hello -my son Preston was not the best student in high school. He was very smart however somewhat…read moredistracted. Along came college applications & different test scores became important. Where do I start. We had the most amazing experience with Shameel from Apollo . My friends son was also at Highland Park & she referred me. Not only did my son get in to the school of his dreams he is in the Honors College. Shameel is more than a tutor he becomes a friend and quite a character! He is so highly intelligent & amazing social skills. Apollo tutors is by far the best company ever.

I had a disappointing experience with Apollo Test Prep. The tutoring approach I received placed too…read moremuch emphasis on general comprehension and not enough on the elimination process that is essential for difficult LSAT questions. In my experience, this actually disrupted a method that had been working better for me, and my performance suffered rather than improved. I later reached out to Jack to explain my concerns and hoped to discuss what had gone wrong, but I did not receive a meaningful response. I also scheduled a strategy call, which was canceled on the basis that only one complimentary strategy call is allowed per student. This was particularly frustrating because I had previously been permitted to schedule more than one strategy call before becoming a paying tutoring client. Taken together, the lack of follow-up and cancellation made me feel that my concerns as a paying student were not being taken seriously. I would have appreciated accountability, a substantive discussion of the tutoring issues, and an effort to address the problem rather than simply ending communication. Based on my experience, I would not use their tutoring services again.

Michaels expertise in really teaching these kids how to take the ACT, SAT tests is truly a unique…read moreexperience. After a diagnostic test of your student's abilities, he can pretty easily assess how many sessions you will need to attain your desired score. From preliminary diagnostic to final test score, my son raised his ACT by 7 points!! Simply because he was taught HOW to take the test and how they are written. Michael will meet with your student at your home or whatever location you choose and the working sessions are enjoyable for the kids. Michael has a great way of connecting with kids and making them feel like they can achieve anything. Scheduling is easy ...you can do it online and it's easy to make changes if you have a conflict. The end of this story is even more amazing..my son is now headed to Yale, Columbia University, Harvard and Brown for college visits. Michaels work speaks for itself. My only worry is that I have recommended him to so many people, I may not be able to schedule him for my other child!

We highly recommend MJ Prep and Donovan Kelly. My daughter was extremely apprehensive to testing…read moreand ACT Prep. Mr. Kelly immediately made her feel at ease with the process. We purchased 8 - 2 hour sessions to prepare her for the Mar and June ACT. He came once a week initially and then we moved to every 2 weeks toward the end. He was prompt, encouraging, thorough, and did not waste any time once he arrived at our home. My daughter really enjoyed her time with him and felt it help to prepare her in ways she could not have done on her own. He identified areas that she needed the most help with and helped her to use her time more wisely. She increased her overall score by 6 points. We were extremely please. Mr. Kelly is fabulous!

I give Bob my highest recommendation for anyone dedicated to reaching his/her highest possible…read morescore on the GMAT. He is competent, patient, and teaches everything needed to excel in the quantitative section in a methodical manner. My GMAT score is a testament to Bob's instruction. I began the process of studying in Feb 2017 and scored a 480 on my first practice test after being out of college for 6 years. I wasted my money on a Princeton review course and I wasted my time trying to master the tricks and gimmicks in the course. While it's true these methods will help improve one's score, I found that despite my greatest efforts I couldn't crack the 620 mark on any of the practice tests. I started working with Bob in May 2017. I scored a 740 in late Jun 2017 because Bob made me smarter (it's really that simple)- letting go of the Princeton review and working with Bob turned out to be one of the best decisions I made with regards to my future. If you choose to work with Bob, I recommend 2-3 days per week. Be humble and let him teach you everything you need in order to excel in the Quant section. Most importantly, spend time everyday practicing and reviewing the concepts visited in each class. I didn't use him for Verbal, but I imagine he applies the same structure to his verbal sessions.

My experience with Bob was less than ideal. Although Bob is very knowledgeable about the GMAT…read moretopics, he failed to understand my individual needs. The private tutoring with Bob was a supplement to my already extensive GMAT practice. I had been studying for a few months prior to my initial meeting with Bob. I came to him with specific problem areas and with only 6 weeks until my exam, asked that we focus our time accordingly. He did not adhere to my request. Additionally, he would say things like "wow I'm surprised you got that one correct" or (4 days before my exam) "you're taking a practice exam on Monday right? Not the real exam. YOU ARE NOT READY." For someone who is hired to be an educator, the aforementioned quotes are obviously off putting. During the time I did spend with Bob, he was constantly answering texts & phone calls. His phone was on ringer and would go off 10-15 times during a 2 hour period. His attention was NOT undivided. Good luck to all those studying. UPDATE 9/16 - Although Bob and I did not align well, he did make amends by offering financial compensation for the time spent, as well as other resources that may be useful to me in my studies.

We engaged Maria to work with our son, Robby just past half way through his 3rd Grade year. He had…read morebeen diagnosed as ADHD and was struggling to adjust to the ever increasing expectations. His grades had gone from A's and B's in 2nd Grade to C's and D's and F's in Third. Robby's motivation was down. He was repeated stating that he wasn't smart (not the case!) and that he didn't like school. My wife and I were a bit at wits end as to what to do. Additionally, Ohio has a high stakes test at the end of the 3rd grade that every student must pass in order to advance to the 4th grade. Maria really turned that around. She focused on developing strategies that he could implement to succeed at his day to day school work as well as better understand the context of the lessons. Additionally she gave him tools to help with focusing, always a challenge with an 8 yr old boy! Within a few weeks we began to see positive results. By the beginning of the 4th quarter his teachers had noticed a positive change in Robby's behavior and motivation and he achieved an award for academic excellence in the 4th quarter. He stopped saying he couldn't do things and he looked forward to going to school. Oh, and he passed the final exam without issue. We were disappointed that Maria moved to Atlanta as it would have been fabulous to have her work with Robby next year. (Just for context - Maria worked with Robby 2 times a week most weeks and 3 times a week to prep for the final exam from early February through the end of May.)

I am very impressed with how Maria works with kids, she encourages them to do their best.read more
