We started reading tutoring for our son a little over 1 month ago. He's in 1st grade and was…read morefalling a bit behind in reading. It seemed like a big part of this was confidence as well. Our son was a bit nervous for the first meeting as he didn't really know what to expect, but as soon as LeeAnn came in, she put our son at ease. She is so friendly and works great with kids. During the first meeting, she did an assessment to see where he is at. She then met with Taylor who runs Sprout Reading and they developed a plan for him. I really appreciated that they did this, because they could've just helped him read some books that we have at our house or helped him with some of his homework. I really appreciated how thorough everything was. After just a couple of meetings, she was able to explain to me exactly where it seemed that he was struggling. And, then she got to work on helping him through those areas. In just one month, we have already seen an improvement in his reading abilities. His confidence has increased, and his teacher at school has noticed as well. He is a lot more excited about reading and is more eager to try reading things on his own. We are very excited to see where this takes him in the next few months. Our son also has pretty severe ADHD, and LeeAnn has been wonderful in supporting him with that. She knows how to navigate this in a way that works well for him. I would highly recommend Sprout Reading Intervention!

Taylor and her team are an exceptional group of tutors. My children have worked with several tutors…read morefrom Sprout Reading Intervention, and each one has been incredibly supportive and helpful. We are currently working with LeeAnn, and she has been amazing with my kids! They are learning so much and genuinely look forward to their tutoring sessions with her. LeeAnn goes above and beyond to keep them engaged, making each lesson both effective and enjoyable. She's also very professional and knowledgeable, and love that she has many years of teaching experience. One detail I especially appreciate is the individual folders she has created for each of my children. It contains all of their completed work, making it easy for them to review and track their progress. It's clear that she is thoughtful and intentional--she provides lasting value. With upcoming teacher conferences, I am excited to hear more about their growth in their reading skills. As a parent, I have already seen significant improvement! I highly recommend Sprout Reading Intervention!

Thank you so much !

I will definitely be referring Ian to the other families at our school.

I'm writing this from a parent's perspective. My son is in 9th grade and goes to Modus for both ACT…read moreprep (bootcamp this past spring and then again this coming summer) AND college counseling. There are a million places that it is almost overwhelming. I've come to realize that many "hagwans" (learning centers) outright lie about what they can deliver and are totally shady. I liked Modus because Esther and Josephine were down to earth and very realistic. I really liked their approach and genuineness. I realize that not all 9th graders are prepared to take the ACT, but since his math is already advanced, I wanted him to get exposure to the test so he could see what he was in for. I had him go in a take the diagnostic test, which he scored well enough to make it into the spring bootcamp. My son REALLY enjoyed it. He liked learning the strategies and tips that he learned. I registered him for the upcoming summer bootcamp because HE wanted to go. Regarding college counseling with Esther. Again, I realize he is a bit young, but I wanted him to get an idea of what he needs to do. Esther spent time with him one-on-one and was able to pull so much out of him (I'm still amazed at how she was able to do it). She put together an amazing plan for him with some really excellent ideas. They seem to really relate well with students - my son thinks they are pretty cool, which is saying a lot. He went to other places and hated it, so I'm glad he has had a great experience. If you are looking to give your child an academic advantage, but with caring and genuine people, then I highly recommend Modus. UPDATE: My son's test scores improved DRAMATICALLY by attending the Summer ACT Bootcamp. I am extremely pleased with his scores and he really enjoys it, which is important.

Thanks to Isaac Kim's help, I improved my ACT score greatly, especially in science. However, it is…read moreclear that he has a lot of experience with all subjects. His expertise goes beyond what you can get out of any prep book. And I don't think I could've scored as well without his help. I learned to portion my time and he gives special techniques and hints which he developed himself. Also, he was very open to questions and he was very kind and approachable. So don't be afraid to ask questions and I guarantee, he will give you a very personalized experience. Also, my college counselor, Esther really found extracurricular activities for me that I really enjoyed and pertained to my major. She also helped me brainstorm ideas for my essays and personally, my common app essay turned out to be really unique and my personality shined through. And it was very out of the box which colleges really loved. She helped me get into so many great schools like Boston College, Carnegie Mellon University, UCLA, and Georgetown University. Overall, my experience with all of the staff at Modus (it was called Edugroup before) has made my college application process much more enjoyable and less stressful and I think I learned more about myself through this process. I really recommend Modus!

She was also very flexible with scheduling and always worked around my busy work schedule, which I greatly appreciated. She has a great way of breaking down difficult concepts and making them much easier to understand. After being out of school for over 12 years, I was nervous about preparing for the HESI exam, but her encouragement and teaching style gave me the confidence I needed to succeed. Thanks to her support and guidance, I passed my HESI exam! I am so grateful for her help and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and effective tutor.

I cannot say enough great things about Yara! She tutors my daughter in Bio H.

I was struggling to find an effective, yet affordable, ACT test prep tutor for my son, who's a high…read moreschool junior. After reviewing Howard Test Prep, and all of the comments, I decided to give them a call. My son was paired with Rick, who has been more than I could have dreamed! My son - who is not a fan of tutors in general - hit it off immediately. Rick's professionalism and preparedness in working with my son has been wonderful. He has been open and honest about what would, and would not, work to prepare for the ACT. My son had four short weeks, but the time was used very efficiently. Keeping up with the additional ACT-prep homework was important, and Rick didn't set an unrealistic work load, allowing him to keep up with his regular school assignments and extracurricular activities. My son found Rick's instructions clear and easy to work with. It helped him go from a previous ACT score of 28 to a jump of 32! Four points after four weeks! And, as a parent, I appreciated the reports provided after each session with details about the lesson and assigned work. I also liked the convenience of Rick coming to tutor in our home and working around my son's nighttime availability. It made our lives so much easier. I highly recommend Rick as a test prep tutor and would have every confidence to work with him again in the future. Great tutor, great guy!
