My 2 older kids had tests this week and asked me to book sessions with the House so i called and they were able to set my daughter up with Silas and my son up with Emmy at the exact times I wanted. That alone is a win! We've used many of their tutors (Kyle and Young to name a few) at this point and they've said great things about all of them. Silas and Emmy were no exception and helped them review for their math tests. I also received notes from each of them a few days later recapping how the session went, which is super helpful for a parent. When my kids attend New Trier at the Winnetka campus I could see us resuming our membership, but in the meantime it's a great option for sporadic tutoring.

My 7th grader works with an experienced, engaging executive functioning coach who has successfully improved his organizational and study skills. He's understands better how to study, plan and prepare. His teachers cannot believe how much better he is doing in class. These are the skills he will carry through high school. Our other son, a sophomore, is being helped in his AP Biology class by another brilliant tutor. The tutor is actually an M.D.! He is engaging, supportive and patient. Our son simply cannot wait for their meetings. Additionally, our oldest son, now at Duke University, completed CA's ACT test prep program two years ago. Their method and system are very well constructed. He worked extremely hard with his instructor and raised his score 6 points. I continue to be thoroughly impressed by CA's tutors, customer service and extremely professional staff. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a high end boutique tutoring service.

I am so impressed with the structure of Huntington's tutoring. I appreciate the fact that Huntington as provided space and time for the student to reflect on their teachers, the strategies they have learned, practice tests they have taken and the communication with parents. This is how results happen and how students find success! Not only is Huntington teaching students test taking strategies, but strategies that can use in college. For parents out there that will have students that will take the ACT or SAT, we highly recommend this place.

While they've called back, it has been an hour or two later, right in the middle of the classes that I teach.

I'm calling to learn about their SAT prep for my child, but this experience will make it unlikely that I'll recommend it to my students.
