I have had the pleasure of working directly with the math tutors and one thing that I can say with…read morecertainty is that they are very passionate about what they do. They really put the goals of the students first. There are many unique skills that are not covered very well in school, I call them accelerated learning techniques, all of which are practiced in abundance at the Math & Science Academy. Several of my friends have had their children get expert one on one tutoring with SoCal Math Academy, and have experienced dramatic increases in their grades. It's not a fluke, rather the process they use. As a child (many years ago!), I struggled with basic algebra for years, until I had the right teacher come along. He instilled in me the right way to learn mathematics, and from that point on, I transformed from a C grade student to straight A's in math. That helped me get through college and into a great job in the technology field. You'll agree with me that math, especially in a place like California, is a subject you must master if you desire to get into a highly sought after technical area. I am not bashing the SoCal school system by any means, the teachers are some of the hardest working, yet underpaid professions in the USA. Sometimes it's the slightest changes in the environment of HOW you learn for an individual student that makes all the difference. If you or your child, like I did, struggles in a traditional classroom setting, this may be your ticket to getting top grades in math. When you experience one of the tutor's classes, that is what you will experience - a different learning environment that leverages the individual learning styles of the students. I didn't mean to write such a long review, but as a parent and one who struggled with math as a child, I fully understand how valuable having a tutor can be and the HUGE difference it make - not just in math, but also in your career. You can use these same skills in many areas of your life. To the team at SoCal Math & Science Academy, I appreciate all that you do for our children, your absolute dedication and passion for this subject is simply unlike any other. Thank you!

Not only have they helped him maintain his A in the class, but his SAT score has improved as well from the tutoring. He goes weekly and they are very accommodating when he needs extra help or extra days. I highly recommend Math & Science Academy and I believe their commitment to the students comes from a genuine and caring place that wants to see them succeed.

We've been working with Under Pressure Homework Help (UPHH) for the past couple of years, and I…read morecan't say enough good things about our experience. The individualized support my son has received has made such a difference not just in his academic progress, but also in his overall confidence and attitude toward schoolwork. Throughout our time with UPHH, my son has worked with a few different tutors, and every one of them has been professional, patient, and well-matched to his learning style. And that's no accident Mrs. Ginny, the owner, is absolutely wonderful. She is sweet, understanding, and incredibly accommodating. She really listens to our needs and takes the time to make sure everything from scheduling to tutor selection is a good fit for our family. Thanks to UPHH, homework time has become much less stressful for all of us. I highly recommend Under Pressure Homework Help to any family looking for compassionate, personalized academic support.

We love UPHH! They are so dedicated and truly care about each child and their success.read more

We moved away for two years to a different state during high school but my son was miserable and his grades went into the dumps... Let's just say, beyond dumps! This was such a hard pill to swallow because we moved for specific reasons not ever thinking that his grades would be affected. I have known Chrissy for about 13 years. She use to be a very sought-after teacher in OC but a few years back she quit her career and started her own business helping kids through the college application process. I reached out to her during my son's junior year in January in desperate need, praying that she could help us. My kid did not want to go through the JC route like my daughter did but he knew that he screwed up the two years that we were out of state. Our family sat down on a Zoom with Chrissy while we were still living out of state, and here's the kicker... she had a plan, while we did not. Our kid would need to Zoom with her almost weekly, work hard in his classes and get his grades up, take some summer classes, work on college essays with her, study different universities, and really get his sh*t together. We knew it wouldn't be easy but we had faith that if he could turn his grades around with A LOT of hard work he just might be able to go to a four-year college. As I write this today, I'm so proud to say that he pulled a 4.0 his first semester after moving back home (felt like I had my boy back). And he also completed those two summer classes and passed with flying colors. He applied to 10 colleges and received 9 acceptances!!! We are thrilled and beyond thankful for Chrissy and her services, we cannot recommend her enough!

If you're looking for an amazing English tutor for your child - choose Ms. Kyria!…read more My daughter didn't speak English before kindergarten, so we decided to try classes with Ms. Kyria. She always had great ideas on how to get kids involved in activities even if they were a bit shy. She came to classes with tons of material and adjusted to kids' pace and level yet pushed them to do more in a playful form. She's very sweet and friendly, so my daughter felt no pressure, and always wanted to go to her classes. Later on, when my son was going through the same stage, we didn't have any doubts whether to sign up for Ms. Kyria's class or not. Ms. Kyria was always great at communicating with parents, sent us materials to work at home, shared pictures from her classes, so we always knew what's going on. Now both of my children are doing great in school. Their English is above their grade level, and I'm grateful for that to Ms. Kyria!

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!
