My 1st grader has been attending the tutoring center for a few months now and the level he is…read morestudying here is surprising. I reviewed the materials he is solving, and it's definitely ahead of what I thought he was capable of. He was writing letters in mirrors images pretty recently, but the stuff in the workbook here that he was reading and writing reminded me of PSAT (for those old enough to remember those) . Of course, to do these, he needs attention and guidance from a teacher at a much lower ratio than what we can get from school, and here, it's kept at about 2 students per teacher. Being a fidgety flighty 6 yr old boy (hopefully normal?) I don't know how much he learns in his school class of 26 kids and I don't have the skills to teach him myself so I started sending him here for professional help twice a week to make sure he doesn't fall behind. Looks like mission is being accomplished so far! And most importantly, he enjoys learning here, which made it part of our weekly routine now. They offer a free assessment, where the student takes a test and they come back with analysis on the student's level and recommendations. It's a nice computer printout that Mr. Chow goes over with you. And then you can decide to enroll or not, and how often to attend and what times you'd like. It was a nice way to get started, as well as probably the first time I got my child assessed on anything. Thankfully he tested slightly above his grade level, but upon examining the questions, I did notice it would've resulted differently had we not done a few reading sessions on our own just the week prior to the assessment, as the vocab tests were specific. So it's not perfect, but still a really useful experience for the child and the parent!

Most importantly, they enjoy going and don't see it as extra work or just a task. It's organized in a way where they feel welcomed within a clear system. They arrive, check the monitor to see what table they'll be at, watch the red light to turn to green to enter. The transition time gives options to color or answer a question of the week. Staff has always been welcoming and they are good with assessments and collaboration with their classroom teachers so everyone is in partnership together.

She recommended zoom tutoring to start and I was skeptical. My daughter is in the first grade and wasn't sure this would work. However, after a couple weeks now I'm happy to see improvement. She actually enjoys tutoring and her spelling has improved. I'm confident her phonics and math will improve as well as more time goes on.

One thing that makes 9 Dots stand out from other service/tutoring programs is its focus on STEM learning.
