This is a review written by my son, a student of Ms. Denise Boulanger…read more As a long-time student of Denise Boulange of over 8 years, I whole-heartedly believe that little can compare to the monumental improvement of my English skill spurred by the persistent efforts of Ms. Denise. She has critiqued my school essays, advised me on my SAT skills, and collaborated to form several fantastic college applications. The college applications were especially of note; while However, I must emphasize that Ms. Denise's expertise extends beyond merely tutoring: we have discussed and studied topics as foreign to me as philosophy. While not overtly connected to standard academics, I have found these niche subjects as bolstering my literary and argumentative expertise (and my school grades of course). In short, if you wish to truly expand and challenge your English mastery, Ms. Denise is certainly an apt choice.

She is a patient and caring teacher and I highly recommend her."

Chris is an outstanding counselor. He helped me write my essays for UCs and the Common App and…read moresupplementals for schools such as NYU and Columbia. His organization and the information he provides about all of the schools are amazing and reduced the stress of having to research all of the small things for each school I was interested in. The way he guided me to write the essay was efficient and saved me a lot of time as I didn't have to write the same essay for another question that was similar to the last. I was able to finish my essays by August. It was a big relief and the whole process seemed very manageable with his help. His ability to provide fluidity in my writing and his knowledge of college admissions helped me especially because my writing was "impenetrable" or difficult for someone who didn't know me to understand. Besides the support he gave me with essays, he was also very easily accessible and understanding. I had his number and if there was anything that came up in the way of a meeting, I could just text him and I got a response in less than an hour. Any rescheduling of a meeting was simple and caused no trouble. Chris is a very straightforward person and gave me the support and advice I needed to write my essays. He is also pretty funny and a down-to-earth person which helped as meetings didn't come as something I didn't want to do. Chris was a great college counselor and I recommend him as his understanding of the application process and his ability to tutor and write were a great help.

Chris helped calm my nerves during the entire process. Chris is patient and has a unique talent of channeling your talents with the best possible outcome. He reassured me that my uniqueness had value. He got me talking about my achievements, made me feel proud, and helped me coalesce my thoughts into an essay that won me acceptance to Cal. In fact, after my acceptance into Cal, the admissions team asked if they could publish my personal statement to help other prospective students. Out of thousands of applications, they remembered mine! I highly recommend Chris for anyone who struggles to put their thoughts to paper for a personal statement. Thanks to Chris, my life trajectory changed in ways I never imagined. Chris has also tutored me in other areas such as Math and Writing. Learning never ends and Chris is unceasingly helpful in all aspects of my life. He is the most incredible writer I have ever met. I also plan on using Chris' services when I enter the work force after college. Meticulously written cover letters, resumes and thank you notes will put you above the rest. Thank you Chris. I am forever grateful.

This is a review for Pace's mandarin immersion summer camp that my child attended for 3 weeks…read moreduring the summer of 2017. It was probably a bit much for any child to sit in a much smaller-than-expected classroom for a whole day for 3 weeks, but the educational themes sounded promising so we did it anyway. Unfortunately a few days into camp she came home telling us that there was a group of kids and their teacher who speak english in the same room including one child who would have fits and shout "bad words" all the time. When I brought this up to Jason, he told us that they take kids with special needs in additional to trying to run a mandarin immersion camp. While I think it's great that they were willing to take children with special needs, it's not particularly effective to put those 2 groups each with very distinct needs into a small, one-room space (the room looked to be about 450 sq ft max). Moreover, I was particularly frustrated when no action was taken to stop the obscenities (my child probably learned as much obscenities in english as she did chinese in those weeks). Each time Jason was informed that yet again, today was another day with foul language disrupting camp, his only response would be "I apologize for the foul language and have spoken with the teachers and parents about it. If the foul language does not stop, the camp will have to take appropriate needed steps as it violates our camp's code of conduct. We appreciate your patience and understanding as our camp tries to be inclusive." Perhaps we were too patient and understanding, as apparently no action was ever taken since the behavior continued throughout. This place was truly regrettable and I wish we could have taken our child out after that first week and spared her the obnoxious behavior she and the others were subjected to.

Some kid colored the staple though, which is actually pretty nice because now whenever you staple something it's rather pretty. All the students there are also very nice and you're sure to make some friends which is nice for socially awkward kids, and if you don't make any friends you still have Helena. :)

Under Evan's guidance, my daughter's reading and math skills have blossomed. He is sensitive, clever and adaptable.

I spoke to the company and they were so knowledgeable and familiar with helping students and creating a plan for the kids during COVID so they do not fall behind. The company set us up with a credentialed tutor who has been tutoring the kids everyday for 5 hours a day and it has been working fantastic. This way they are not falling behind (Our biggest fear) and the tutor seems to keep the math and english session engaging which is so important. No kid wants to feel like they are going to school and I think they did a really good job at doing that. For Math tutoring, the tutor assigns homework and does weekly assessments. We feel like this is the most effective educational experience we have purchased and are so thankful for their service. With everything so crazy right now with COVID, this is the way to go.
