Parents, you can trust Alpha Co. This is a place you want to send your kids long term. All the…read moretutors here are very experienced and dedicated. The tutors are mostly recent college graduates who are adaptable with their teaching method to suit your child's educational needs. This is important to me because I've tried other places where tutors were much older and  weren't experienced with the new common core method. Communication is also very easy. They reply to msgs and emails very fast, and they always try their best to accommodate our schedule, which I really appreciate because kids' schedules can be a bit chaotic. Sometimes they offer schedule changes based on upcoming tests...they really go above and beyond! They also have a very strong debate class that competes internationally, so we might try that this summer. It's been 3 years and so far it's been the best school we've tried!

My child not only gets homework done on time, but also receives the extra support and encouragement needed to understand the material better. The environment is safe, organized, and very positive. I really appreciate how they balance homework help with fun activities, so the kids stay motivated and happy after a long school day. I highly recommend The Homework Corner to any parent looking for a reliable, supportive, and educational after-school program for their child!

I wanted to make sure my previous review (based on my distasteful experience with Gerald and Ashton…read moreat the Bright Mind) is not moved to the not recommended section: AFTER GERALD CONTACTED ME REGARDING MY REVIEW: My negative review is because of TBM's lack of transparency and sub-par customer service as I stated in my conversation with you, Gerald. INITIAL REVIEW: Keeping it short, I do not recommend doing business with TBM. Gerald and Ashton, you don't need to search through your records because you know me. In fact, I am surprised only when the review is negative, you cannot find the reviewers' information on your file. SAME COMMENT AS I HAVE IT ON GOOGLE REVIEW.

She was convinced she wouldn't get in anywhere. My child came up with some of her list, Mike and Gerald came up with others. They were with her from the very start. Not only did she get into 80% of the schools she applied to, she got into here first 3 choices. I tell everyone I know with high school aged kids - if you have any concerns about the college counseling process at your childs school - or they might need some tutoring and help with college applications... Help with financial aid, help with filling out the forms, who needs what form where and by when....This was SUCH a help to us.

My daughter is currently in 9th grade and joined C2 Education in La Crescenta in December 2025…read moreafter taking an initial diagnostic pre-PSAT exam. After several months of tutoring and support, she recently completed another practice exam and scored tremendously better than her original diagnostic score. We have been incredibly happy with her progress and overall experience at C2. The staff is one of the biggest reasons we've had such a positive experience. They are always kind, professional, and very helpful. They consistently reach out regarding tutor availability and do their best to accommodate our schedule. Their communication and dedication truly make parents feel involved and supported. The tutors themselves are knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. They teach my daughter new concepts in ways that help her feel confident and motivated. Most importantly, they create a positive learning environment where she feels comfortable asking questions and growing academically. One thing that really stands out to me is that my daughter attends her sessions willingly and actually looks forward to going, which says a lot. The scheduling flexibility during the school year has also been extremely helpful for our busy family. Every few months, we meet with Connie to discuss my daughter's academic progress, goals, strengths, and extracurricular activities. These meetings are thoughtful, informative, and personalized, and they make us feel that C2 genuinely cares about each student's overall success and future. I truly appreciate the support, guidance, and encouragement my daughter has received over the past several months. I couldn't be happier with our experience so far and would highly recommend C2 Education in La Crescenta to families looking for a supportive and academically strong learning center.

They communicate very well. Great service all in all. Thank you for the great service.

She has also gained more confidence, her instructor is very positive and encouraging. They are extremely flexible with hours/scheduling. I can always text them for a quick and easy communication rather than calling and playing phone tag. After every session I get an e-mail with notes from her instructor sharing what they covered in the lesson and how it went with a list of things she did well and things she can continue to practice. Also, the sessions are easy to use and set up, it's just a link to click in an e-mail instead of downloading or installing Zoom or any other platform on the device. If I want them to cover any specific homework assignment, workbook, skill or even state testing practice they incorporate that into the session for us. I would highly recommend them!

My wife and I purchased an online at home ISSE practice test for our daughter on 10/24/2020. When…read morewe hadn't received anything about how to sign up for the test, my wife spoke to Lori twice on the phone- once she said she was on vacation and it slipped through the cracks. The second phone call was that she had our daughter confused with someone else. After the second time speaking with Lori over the phone, we still hadn't received any instructions on how to download the practice exam, and sent a follow up e-mail again requesting the test. Again nothing. At this point we had to get a practice test from another provider (Pasadena Learning Center in Altadena, they're amazing) as it's been over a month. On 12/4/2020 we contested the PayPal charge and only then is when Lori immediately sent the link information and via e-mail saying that we must have not seen her email, dated 12/4/2020 lol. Very unprofessional. I wish I would have read the negative reviews on here before signing up with them because it's exactly what we experienced.

Elite helped my kid get into Princeton! This was always my kid's dream and Elite helped make it…read morecome true!! This place is VERY understated and probably could be charging quadruple what they do. A lot of places have good staff but I think what sets this place apart is the company culture, which is no small factor when your kid is trying to thread the needle through all of the little details that matter in the application process (and those little things do matter if your dream is one of the top schools). The staff members all work as a team, surrounding your kid with an army of people who not only know what they're doing, (you can get that at a lot of places) but who ACTUALLY CARE and personally go above and beyond to see them succeed. They almost feel like extended family, an army of support. You can pay someone to help your kid out with applications, but you can't pay Somone to actually care! That is the difference with Elite. I don't know what or how they go about hiring people or what they do to foster that type of culture but the benefits of it go to your kid and in our case the results speak for themselves. Sure my kid is smart, has near perfect grades and test scores but so do thousands of other kids with near identical profiles. Elite helped my kid stand out from the crowd. They truly know what they are doing. Thank you thank you Elite!! A true trajectory changer for my kid. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME on all of those "fancy" places that charge double or in some cases quadruple. I almost did and I'm so glad I didn't.
