Sullivan Tutoring was recommended to us for SSAT prep by a guidance counselor at a local private…read morehigh school and we have been thrilled with them in every way. Scott and Becky are fabulous and our daughter has enjoyed working with both of them. Her score increased tremendously and we are highly impressed. They taught her strategies for taking this specific test and focused on both her strengths and weaknesses. We recommend Sullivan Tutoring without hesitation and will 100% use them in the future for SAT prep when the time comes or if other tutoring needs arise. They are an important tool in our education toolbox! Thank you Scott and Katie for everything you have done to help our daughter and for making the tutoring process such a positive experience.

Like so many parents, we were impacted by COVID in the Spring of 2020, and our daughter's…read moreKindergarten year was essentially cut short. We were concerned about her reading ability for 1st Grade, and a friend of ours recommended KUMON. After hearing about it, we were intrigued and did the orientation. After a year, we could not be more pleased with the results!! The Director of *Kumon Math and Reading Center of Beverly*, Ms. Ellia Jang, and her staff of teachers, Esther and company, etc., are simply wonderful! Our daughter's reading skills improved dramatically throughout her first grade year. And as we closed this past school, with both our son and daughter going into 3rd and 2nd grade, respectively, both of their teachers recommended some tutoring or at-home schooling to keep their math and reading skills on par for this upcoming school year. As both of us are working parents, it was easy to make the decision to enroll both our kids into KUMON instead for both math and reading. The homework assignments are easy and manageable to do in the mornings or afternoons after day care / camps, etc., and the in-person instruction they receive on Mondays and Thursdays is outstanding! Ellia and her staff provide 1-on-1 personal attention to each of our kids and provide feedback on a weekly basis - amazing! Also, Ellia has been more than accommodating with any of our summer plans, if we needed to skip a week or lighten any homework, while still maintaining our kids' interest and achieving positive results. We can definitely tell our kids are more than ready for this upcoming school year!! We will definitely be continuing to use KUMON to supplement our kids' learning as time goes on. Thank you so much for all you do!!

Plumfield Academy is everything we hoped for in a school - small classes that can meet our children…read moreexactly where they are academically, interaction with children of varying ages, and the kind of emotional support only a small school can provide. The staff at Plumfield truly sees the children and encourages and supports each one of its students' strengths and interests. They make learning fun while allowing ample time for socialization and outdoor play. Plumfield is a special place - whether your child is quiet or loud, sensitive or bold, artistic or sporty, there is a spot for everyone. The teachers are invested and I drop my children off every day knowing they are well cared for, safe, and supported. Plumfield allows its children to be who they truly are, supporting them wholly. My sensitive son's confidence is soaring and I owe every bit of his progress to this wonderful school.

We cannot say enough good things about Plumfield Academy. When my son was not excelling at the…read morepublic middle school we started searching for a school we could transfer him to that offered him a safe space to learn and be himself. I literally saw a sign, a lawn sign, and as soon as I pulled up the website I knew this was the answer. We went in for a day to check it out and participated in a class that asked us to write down emotions that were putting holes in our buckets. We then went outside and burned them in a fire pit. This was exactly the type of place I wanted my son to be. My son was stressed out about the grades and tests and homework at his public school. We loved that Plumfield doesn't "test" their knowledge but rather has them do narration for what they are learning, really thinking about and writing down or speaking what they've learned. Our son works through his math book at his own pace. Beyond the general academics Plumfield teaches scripture while allowing the children to share and have their own beliefs. I love that they do nature study, logic, and the arts (drama, music, acting, etc). And my son is currently working through 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens which he has very much enjoyed. We love the "nontraditional" approach offering our child broader, life oriented lessons. The teachers have all been wonderful and supportive. The director John is an honest, wonderful man who has developed a loving relationship with my son helping him through struggles in his life. Our son says Plumfield feels like a family. We feel incredibly grateful that we were able to find this gem of a school for our son to finish out his middle school years. He is working with Plumfield to apply to St John's Prep for high school and we truly believe Plumfield has offered him the best preparation for his high school career.

Ryan Judkins is extremely communicative and organized, providing immediate feedback on sessions. Even his invoices are well done making electronic payment easy and seamless. My daughter didn't always apply herself but in the end she really pushed and Ryan was there to keep her going. Her scores rose in all categories and she got to a comfortable score which was terrific. He gives very concrete strategies and really understands the SAT mindset, particularly the verbal side. Highly recommend Ryan and his team.

From the owner: At Bootstrap Tutors, our mission is to offer the highest quality of tutoring for academic subjects,…read moretest preparation, and college admissions. All of our tutors are experienced professors and teachers, not college students with high test scores. We're founded on the core beliefs that there is no substitute for hard, one-on-one work with an expert teacher and that education should be radically transparent and inclusive. We don't take shortcuts, because shortcuts don't work. We teach our students to master their subjects from the core concepts up. Every step along that long road is necessary, but we'll be with you all the way. We're called Bootstrap Tutors because "bootstrapping" typically refers to starting a self-sustaining process, and that's our goal. If we do our job right, soon you won't need us. We offer free consultations and straightforward rates and policies. We're a small business based in Somerville, Massachusetts, but we also provide virtual tutoring.
