She has helped me connect with multiple amazing families in the Santa Barbara area and I have enjoyed tutoring immensely. Her organization is off the charts, and I am never left feeling in the dark or unsure about my job. Her work has permitted me to have amazing work moments like students who initially were struggling with math finding that they were starting to actually enjoy their homework and assignments. And recently, a student who was a bit lost in their math class scored the highest test grade in her class! I highly HIGHLY recommend Leading Edge Tutors, both from the student and tutor perspectives.

Working with Nita is one of the best experiences a parent could hope for when their teen is…read moreapplying for colleges. Nita is kind, patient (especially with eager parents!) and more importantly knows how to connect with teens! My husband and I are a bit unorganized and well, frankly, clueless about college applications and financial aid. Our son didn't seem interested in discussing colleges with us, which was also frustrating. He began sessions with Nita in January 2022 researching colleges and their locations, lifestyle and academic programs/offerings. He has enjoyed working with Nita and has made great progress. He recently completed essays and application requirements and submitted his applications. We have already recieved an acceptance letter from one college, Western Washington University! Nita is very knowledgeable about financial aid and how to prepare for freshman year. I was referred to Nita from another mom who had a similarly outstanding experience. With gratitude to Nita - The Schous.

Unfortunately, the first tutor they sent to our home was not a good fit for us. However, they were very responsive to our needs and did not charge us for the first session. The owner David went to great lengths to make sure we found a tutor that was a good fit. In the end, we found someone that was a perfect fit for what my son needed. Overall it was a very good experience and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a tutor.

This is a tutoring match service. The company tries to match independent tutors with families…read morerequesting tutoring services. No tutor can make a child learn, motivation must come from the parent. Sure, some matches of tutor/family are not a perfect fit, but using common sense, most things can be resolved through compromise. This is an almost nationwide/global business. They have a great online platform (zoom like). Sure an occasional tutor may flake out or an occasional family may have unrealistic expectations, but try again. The company has no control over either entity - it just bills and tries to match needs. One bad apple does not ruin the whole truck!

She was invested in explaining to us the differences between both tests and how each test benefits specific types of students. We settled on our daughter taking the SAT and then signed up for a series of group test prep classes taught by Ms. Mazor. Our daughter came home from every class with a "can do" attitude about the test, invested in studying for the practice tests and reviewing errors she made in practice tests (of which there are many!) The class series was taught at a steady pace and in five short weeks accomplished review of strategies and material, taking 4 proctored tests that simulate the real SAT test experience and analysis of test errors and writing samples. I believe our daughter's level of enthusiasm and commitment to give this experience her very best was inspired by Ms. Mazor's approach to teaching. She communicates positivity, accountability to be the best one can be and her teaching style is dynamic and engaging. My daughter was never bored in these classes and remained focused on studying at home and learning from her errors throughout the test prep period. The final outcome was an SAT score that exceeded her (and our) expectations! We could not be more satisfied with our experience with Test Prep Santa Barbara!!
