When asked why the teacher wouldn't answer questions C2 explained the teacher didn't speak English. When our daughter came home crying, we asked for the refund. It was a few hours after the time they said we could get a full refund. They promised a refund for several weeks. Eventually they said they gave us a partial refund but it didn't go through. At this point it seems like they are just messing with us. Stay away.

We have used this service for the last two and half years and cannot tell you how much we have benefited from the support of the coaches that have worked with our son. His confidence has improved with his writing, learning how to organize his thoughts better when tackling history and English Language Arts assignments. He's doing more than just the bare minimum, including more descriptive language and details. He's proactively creating outlines while reading to set himself up for success when trying to remember details later for questions or discussions. He's gotten better at self-advocacy, reaching out to teachers via email, when he's unsure of how to tackle an assignment or something isn't working correctly vs. just ignoring the issue. All things he wouldn't dream of doing on his own two years ago. Added bonus is that it has taken some of the pressure off of us, his parents, and the stress it was causing us when "nagging" him about his homework and missing assignments. Just wish we would have started sooner!!

Michelle Kaplan-Cohen is very organized and a great communicator. She was great about finding the…read moreright tutor to meet my children's needs. She has been fabulous to work with, and she's made sure we are happy with the tutors she matches us up with. Michelle always gives us options when selecting a tutor, and we've been so happy with the results. My older son was having so much trouble with virtual learning that he was failing every class. Michelle matched us with an amazing tutor that connected well with my son, tutored in the subjects he needed most, and tutored in executive functioning. With the tutor's assistance, that mostly turned out to be in executive functioning and walking him through the steps to write a huge history paper, my older son ended up with A's and B's for the rest of the year. My younger son needed some help in writing this past year. Michelle recommended what seemed to be an unusual pairing, but my son is so inspired by this writing tutor that instead of playing video games, he takes time to write pieces for her to go over with him and suggest improvements. My older son is also seeing her now as well and is gaining valuable feedback on how he can improve his school writing assignments.

Envision claims to provide classes for high scholars and and a once in a life time experience. One of the only enjoyable parts of this trip was the wounded warrior project and the ability to get access to U.S government buildings, but in my option was not worth the hefty price tag of $3k. The staff was very rude and disrespectful rewords me. When asked simple questions of how to get somewhere, or what the schedule is they would give you dirty looks or make it seem as if you were hassling them. I had two situations that required me to talk to the office and both time I went they cut me off when talking or told me to figure it out on my own. However I must give credit to my group leader as she was amazing, kind and helpful towards all of the students. The NSAM meeting I found useless as we did basic middle school history work. The other "learning" events were alright but again I didn't learn much from this experience. We had meals at the university of Maryland's dining hall. While eating one of my group members found fingernails in their pie, which the university claims were onions, it's safe to say I stayed away from the pie after that. It gets worse though. While on a trip into DC I witnessed a an older staff member around 60/70 I'd say, buy a box of Trojan condoms, triple bag them at self checkout than put them in his jacket after paying. Later that night I was walking in the hall to return to my room as I saw this man slap a younger ( approx. 25 ) female staff member on her bottom. Through the week they continued to display PDA's. And on the last day we witnessed them purchase condoms again on the last day. Never the less I wasn't expecting to see this on my "once in a lifetime experience." Overall this was an odd week and and make me wonder why I came here in the first place.
