At the risk of being redundant, Art Edwards worked with our son to…read moreimprove his math SAT score through a combination of material mastery and test-taking strategies. Our son did his part, doing practice exams and going over them when they met. We had what we thought was a realistic expectation of how much the score might improve and were pleasantly surprised when he scored higher than we'd hoped and expected. Art is able to explain the material as well as how test questions are designed in ways that our son understood and was able to apply. Both not only helped this score, but certainly will contribute in the future. Highly recommended.

I have ADHD, and that caused me to struggle with switching tasks, focusing, and using my working memory throughout my life. These struggles were especially difficult in college and in my remote work. These struggles also gave me context for how necessary it was for me to improve my skills. Attending LearningRx was a transformative experience. While my fellow students tended to be 1-2 decades younger than me, the curriculum scaled quickly to keep me challenged and working hard. After 70 hours of in-person coaching and another 20 online, I felt like a new man! I could finally rely on my mind to remember, retrieve, and reconfigure information it took in. The mental skills I was lacking in jumped up 1-2 standard deviations. I am finally confident I can reliably use and activate my mental resources at will. Highly recommend for students of all ages!

We recently withdrew our student from the South Riding Huntington program and would not recommend…read moreas it did not meet our tutoring needs. We were impressed at first with their intensive pre-enrolment evaluation where they used their proprietary tools and methods to assess our student's learning needs. They did a decent job presenting our student's needs and recommending learning plans to achieve our stated goals. I also like that they meet with us to discuss our student's learning progress. However, their program did not meet our specific needs due the following: Beyond what we were told in the periodic meetings, we did not have visibility to our student's learning materials. By design, there are no take home exercises or learning materials to encourage continued learning and practices while not at the center. We never saw the actual learning materials! Since there are no take-home work, it was important for us to see the actual learning materials and even how our student was graded on tests/exercises so that we can procure similar materials for ongoing practicing outside of tutoring sessions. The tutoring sessions did not translate to success in the classroom or report cards. We did not really have designated teacher/tutor. There seemed to be a rotation of teachers/tutors who would attend to our student during various tutoring sessions. This would be ideal for younger students but a concern for our student and our tutoring needs. We also became aware that their recruiting requirement for tutors indicated that "teaching experience is not required." Their fees outpace that of seasoned experienced tutors with teaching experience. In addition, I agree with another review on google (which looks like it has been taken down) about their tendency to be unnecessarily rigid. They once approached us within two hours to the start of our scheduled tutoring session and begged us to accommodate their last-minute schedule challenge and asked to inconveniently change our time. We obliged. At a later time, when we gave them a 12-hour notice of absence, they were unwilling to accommodate and instead rudely pointed to their policies (which is within their rights; they have a very rigid 24-hour rule). I did not appreciate their rudeness and overall impersonal attitudes considering that their services cater to families. I will definitely not recommend this tutoring program to other families!

After moving an not being plugged into the school system with other parents to get advice, I've…read morebeen relying online for info on local school stuff, and it's a little nerve wracking not being in the know anymore. Northern VA schools were by and large good, and known entities to my wife and I, having lived in the area for years. Friends of ours had a daughter who did after-school work at C2, which eventually led us to reaching out for SAT prep - something neither of us did. Miss Jessica deserves kudos for the effort she puts out to go the extra mile. I wish some of the school counselors, and definitely some of the teachers we have dealt with would take the same level of concern she did. I guess you get what you pay for, sad to say. Any time my wife had an issue, she seemed to step up and help. She's the one you want to deal with. They don't let you talk to the teachers, but we still got reports on classroom activity (it's three students at a table, not one on one), and despite not meeting them, Shawn had a good rep, and Ted always seemed helpful. We liked the idea of combining with other driven students, as sometimes our child can take a little extra motivation. SAT score went up, grades went up, happy parents, happy student. Overall, we're happy enough that we'll be looking here for after-school tutoring as well. We hope there's another Miss Jessica to make us feel at home again!
