Miss Jess was a great tutor but her communication skills are extremely lacking. She is not…read moredependable at all. We hired Miss Jess to help our son catch up with reading and writing. We agreed to a certain amount of days and paid a generous hourly rate hoping we could depend on her to get our son caught up over the summer. Unfortunately that was not the case. She changed the schedule multiple times, dropped us all together until summer started, and then once summer did start she canceled multiple times 30 min before our session started. It was becoming difficult because we scheduled our entire day around the session (picking up my son from camp early, ending my work day early for her arrival, etc). When I politely asked for a 2 hour notice before cancelling (which should be the standard) she dropped us all together. No explantation. Just said she is letting us go. Really disappointed.

He doesn't dread going to school anymore and you can tell that he is proud of the progress he has made. He is excited to show me what new words he can spell and how improved his penmanship is. I looked into other options before choosing a private tutor but after close examination I realized the bigger tutoring companies are all sketchy and a scam. Not Nate, he genuinely cares about his students and makes time to work one on one with them. He is patient and kind. He listens to the parents concerns and teaches how the child learns. If you are considering, give him a try! I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

My 13 year old and 8 year old joined over the summer for both Math & Reading because we wanted to make sure they had a good, strong start to the school year. They had been attending online school during the 2020-2021 school year and felt they had fallen behind. The Kumon program claims that you will see results within 3 months. They were spot on! My kids tested at the start and again after 3 months and the results showed a big improvement! You just need to be very patient- it could be frustrating because the program works by starting kids with the very super basic material and build up their knowledge from there. I absolutely recommend Kumon - particularly this location!

We could not be any happier with Ms. Claudia and her team. We joined Kumon in August of 2020…read morebecause of COVID-19. It was something we had on our radar anyways but COVID really put it at the forefront. My little one is an eager learner and loves school so we were really concerned our preschooler at the time, who was on the verge of learning how to read, wasn't getting the right amount of instruction during her last few months of distance learning. As much as we enjoy working with our little one, she does much better taking instruction from "teachers" so we felt confident she would do well in this after school learning program. After 5 months of Kumon, we could not be happier. My daughter has learned and grown so much. I'm constantly amazed at how much she's learned in both math and reading. She advanced pretty quickly through each level but Ms. Claudia did an excellent job ensuring she was really ready before advancing her. At times, we repeated lessons. In the months we've attended, my daughter has advanced to what she calls the "big girl tables" which is where each child works more independently vs. the early learners table where an instructor is sitting with them the entire time. My 5-year-old was super excited to move up but got a little stage fright not having a teacher with her. To be fair, she's 5 and does still need assistance, especially with reading, but Ms. Claudia has made adjustments so my daughter remains comfortable in class. She will eventually need to move to the "big girl tables" but we appreciate Ms. Claudia being willing to compromise. Additionally, because she's advanced, the math and reading homework has become more challenging for her - to the point where she was getting a little discouraged when it came to doing her homework. Up until recently, this was never the case. We addressed these issues with Ms. Claudia and she quickly made adjustments that are working much better for us. She continues to check-in each week, which is greatly appreciated. Incentive Programs: Each visit, your child earns Kumon dollars (KD) they can use towards fun prizes. It turned out to be a fun incentive for my daugther. Saving her KD's is a life lesson in itself. My daughter was saving for the grand prize, an electric scooter ($1000KD) so after she returned from her Kumon lesson, she'd sit at our kitchen table for a good 15-20 minutes trying to add it all up and figure out how much more she needs to reach her goal. She got up to $700 KDS before her God Parents got her one for Christmas. Instead, she chose a National Geographic dinosaur dig kit ($500 KD), which has been a COMPLETE (mess!!!! - LOL) HIT! = ) She loves it and feels so proud that she earned it. She is saving up again for another National Geographic prize. If your child is struggling with distance learning or needs a little push with math or reading, I'd HIGHLY recommend Ms. Claudia and this Kumon location. We are beyond pleased with Ms. Claudia being so accessible and are thrilled with the life lessons and knowledge my daughter is gaining here. Ms. Claudia has demonstrated on multiple occasions that she does what is best for my child and doesn't try to fit everyone into one mold. Plus, she and Ms. Annie are so incredibly patient!!! My daughter just loves them.

This is a heartfelt testament to the extraordinary impact he had on my life and academic journey. They had a way of making me feel at ease, which was essential for someone like me who had built up a significant amount of anxiety around math. Their enthusiasm for the subject was infectious, and I began to feel a glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, I could conquer this subject with their help. What sets Stephen apart from other tutors is their unique and effective teaching style. They have a remarkable ability to break down complex concepts into understandable chunks. Instead of just memorizing formulas, stephen emphasized understanding the underlying principlea such as the Pythagorean theorem and the correlation to the unit circle and distance formula and even the quadratic formula. 10/10!!!!
