I appreciate Ms. Fagel's warmth, flexibility, creativity, and professionalism. I recommend Today's Tutors highly.

Paul Lord helped our son raise his SAT scores from 500 (1500) per section to a total of 630,600,…read more610 (1840). This is a 340 total increase in a span of about 5 weeks. He's a particularly patient tutor, with a specialty in Critical reading and interpreting those tricky passage-base reading questions. Rates are reasonable as well. He's courteous and always on time and patient with his students. I highly recommend Paul.

I am the parent of eight children and have been using the services of Prep Matters for many, many…read moreyears. For all this time, I have been exceptionally pleased with the instruction and the results. I have, most recently utilized the services of Sunhee, an SAT tutor who has singlehandedly enabled my daughter to raise her SAT score by over 200 points. The experience of SAT test prep, which can be grueling, unpleasant and painful, has been actually enjoyable for my daughter. I think this has much to do with the relationship and rapport she has developed with Sunhee. From the first session to the last, he has been responsive, supportive, encouraging, and motivational. Sunhee is not the only tutor who has yielded exceptional results for my children. Both of my sons also used Prep Matters tutors, and I was equally and exceptionally pleased with the academic support and guidance they received. In all cases, my kids reached their target scores as a result of the instructional tips and strategies the tutors provided and were accepted into competitive colleges. I have also known Ned Johnson, the owner, for over two decades. He is an incredible person, dedicated to achieving success for all Prep Matter students. He has called me at home to discuss my kids' progress and has personally met with my kids when they have struggled academically or needed an extra boost of encouragement. He cares about each and every student who walks through his doors, remembering their names and stories long after they have graduated from high school and gone to college. Ned is an extraordinary man and the example he sets is on full display in the staff he employs. His tutors work hard to achieve results, embracing the same values inculcated by Ned. In many ways, Prep Matters feels like a family. This is a personal tutoring experience that adapts strategies specific to a child's needs. This daughter is my youngest and will close this chapter of my life. I will always be grateful to Ned and to Prep Matters for being there for me and my kids--for believing in them and working with them to create the best possible outcomes.

I can't say enough in support of PrepMatters. It is an incredibly nice, well-run, welcoming company…read morewith an enormously talented and dedicated staff. For quite a while, we've worked with math tutor Sharon Kim in the Bethesda office and absolutely LOVE her. She is really great about learning each kid's way of learning and then teaching effectively to that. Also, my son just really enjoys spending time with her and doing all the math they do. I'm super fond of her as well. We also worked very briefly with Moose in the Tenleytown office. He is a physics whiz and the brevity of our working relationship was only because my son had no teacher at school so needed guidance until one was hired. Moose was the perfect interim! I have recommended both him and Sharon many times. We have also worked with PM in the college counseling realm. Full disclosure- I have my own college counseling business, but my son and I didn't want to work together during his application process. So, we interviewed several companies and immediately chose to partner with PM's Maureen Delaney. She is wonderful, and my son loves working with her. Lastly, I'll note that Ned Johnson, founder and leader of PM, is a terrific human who is deeply committed to and knowledgeable about education, development, and adolescent. It's been a pleasure to get to know him, and I highly recommend the books he and Bill Stixrud have authored. The prices aren't low, but honestly, I feel great about paying such a caring, supportive group of people. Their help has been worth every penny!

Amazing experience at C2! You never have to worry about falling behind in school or overthinking…read morefor a test. At C2, you can ask questions regarding your school work, your PSAT, SAT, ACT etc.. All the tutors and staffs will be happy to answer! Most importantly, your lessons will be based on your own potentials, so you can target your weaknesses and improve on that specifically. I've acquired a major improvement on the PSAT just the first month I got here (increased by hundreds), and I've also been doing pretty well in school as a freshman. The tutors here are kind, knowledgable, accommodating, everything you would ask for!

At this point it seems like they are just messing with us. Stay away.

Ben keeps class fun and focused, and the LSAT Demon was perfect for studying on the metro during my commute. The tutors were not good, but you don't need them. Between Ben's video explanations and class, you will be well equipped. The classes are a bit large, but I made three amazing friends out of this class. We all stay in touch still. This course really worked out for me. I was admitted to multiple T14 law schools and received significant scholarship at all of them. It's absolutely worth paying for the class to get into a great school with a great scholarship package. Plus, I met a ton of classmates who also took this course, so its a great icebreaker when you meet other DC people. Classes may be different now that things are online, but I had a great experience with this course.

His LSAT Demon study software is very well-made with extensive explanations for the vast majority of the questions from each of the 94 (?) released exams. The AI software really helps you focus in on the areas you're really struggling with and regular use, at least in my experience, is guaranteed to help raise your score. In a few months I was able to raise my score by 15 points from my initial diagnostic and I am very thankful for Ben's instruction and the materials he provides his students with.

Most of the teachers have been there for years and they do a great job at retaining teachers year over year. My daughter absolutely loves the teachers and runs into the classroom when we drop her off. She talks about the teachers and friends at home often. My daughter's vocabulary, speaking ability, social interactions have improved so much since she joined TOTH. They also help with potty training from day 1 and at 2.5 my daughter is potty-trained and almost entirely independent with the bathroom. They also did an awesome job at navigating COVID and had minimal classroom closures and no major outbreaks in her classroom. TOTH also has an attached playground and they prioritize spending time outdoors, which my daughter loves. They go on long walks and do not use any carriers which is awesome because we can now go on short hikes or museums without a stroller. We couldn't ask for a better learning facility, TOTH is her home away from home.
