My daughter went from C- minus to honor roll after a few months at C2…read more Gabe and Levi were instrumental in their process of reinforcing the fundamentals needed to strengthen my little girls Math skills. They reach out to my daughter's Math teacher thru e-mail. To ensure that each curriculum is practiced and drilled accordingly. I had my daughter go to other Math tutoring establishments. But the results were abysmal at best. What she needed was someone to teach her the Common Core Math, that me or my wife could not teach since we both grew up on Classical Mathematics. It was a frustrating experience for us and our daughter. So if, as a parent you struggle to teach your kids your way of Math. You're not alone! Common Core Math is quite different and can lead to lower scores for your kids especially when written formulas are required in the tests. Quality is never cheap! C2 brings quality tutoring to the highest level i have ever seen in Math. 2 hour sessions at least 2x per week. With assessment reports sent directly to you, the parent. Every dollar spent here at C2 was worth it. It's hard to put a price on your kids improvement in self-esteem, confidence and focus by having outstanding grades. By ensuring your kids strong foundation in Math opens so many more doors or opportunities for them. My daughter went from wanting to be an interior designer(not a lot of Math) to having the confidence to actually want to be an engineer or architect! Thank You C2! Thank you Levi! Thank you Gabe for ur masterful teaching ways!

The kids love how she explains math so clearly. They just get it when she teaches them. And they really get it because she's asking them questions during the session to check their understanding. Confidence and grades have soared! My 7 year old tutors with Laura because he wants to increase his math skills. I especially love that she doesn't limit what he can learn at his age. He's learned his multiplication and division tables, rounding to the 10,000's, perimeter, area and today he learned fractions. It's only been 8 weeks. We signed up for another 8 weeks. Really cool to see his mind light up! Thank you CEC and thank you Laura!!!

I looked up many tutoring centers in the area and decided on CEC. I signed her up for AST twice a week. Within two weeks she was starting to get it and even got an 85% on her math test - which before she averaged 70%. She had so much more confidence with math and the staff, especially Mr. Brian worked around her busy schedule. I can't thank CEC enough for all their help and patience with us and look forward to many more tutoring sessions for my daughter!

This review is for the learning center upstairs! I send my 10 year old here for homework, private…read moretutoring, and piano lessons. This place is really "all-in-one" which is really convenient for working parents. They offer a pick up service from my child's school and feed them snacks once they arrive at Quest. I have piece of mind knowing that my son is well taken care of from the moment they are picked up. As for their homework help class, I double check my son's homework each night to make sure it's complete, and I have no problems with the quality. I was a little concerned about the shift to common core at my son's school, but the teachers at Quest know how to explain common core methods very well. My son also has private tutoring for reading since he was a little behind. His tutor is great and I've seen so much improvement in his reading fluency and comprehension. He's much more confident in this subject now! The staff there are very courteous and more than willing to work with you to resolve any concerns and issues. I'm very happy with sending my kid here!

In attending Alpha Academy for about a year, I saw improvements in both my academic and, quite…read moresurprisingly, my personal life. Mr. Kim's passion for teaching is truly evident in each and every class session. Alpha usually goes about three days a week for two hours each. Each session focuses on a different subject of the SAT (writing, reading, and math). In each session, he drills test-taking patterns in essay writing, grammar, and critical reading. These patterns break down the entire test, allowing students to be fully aware of what to expect. The test then is no longer intimidating while both speed and accuracy in test-taking improves. Not only does Mr. Kim teach valuable test-taking skills, but he also offers his students nuggets of life-lessons. In my experience, these life-lessons have made a great impact by inspiring me to make my role as a student priority. With this new focus, I saw my SAT scores improve as well as my GPA. In addition to the SAT classes, I highly recommend taking the college personal statement writing courses. Because Mr. Kim teaches SATs on a very personal level, he knows each one of his students on deep level. Therefore, he becomes a great help in helping students channel their life experiences into moving and touching essays for college admissions to read. He is willing to go through many drafts of the essay with each student and even goes out of his way to call and give suggestions for improvement over the phone. All in all, Alpha Academy is an unforgettable experience. Even after graduating high school, I am able to apply Mr. Kim's lessons and thoughts on life. He continues to challenge me to look further.

Everyday, I have flashbacks of bits and pieces of Mr. Kim's teachings and his stories. It seems…read morewhatever I learned in alpha is engraved into my head and is the foundation that powers how a think. Honestly, I didn't care much about the SATs until my senior year. I went to the classes to hear his life lessons. As I begin my independent life, I will cherish what I learned from Alpha and use them to my advantage. I feel very fortunate that my parents were able to send me to alpha for many years for me to have this education.

"Learning made Fun"…read more If your child needs after-school homework help, specific tutoring in a subject, or simply wants to get ahead academically, I cannot recommend Ready Study Go enough! The founder, Karyn, her brother Kyle, and all of their amazing tutors continue to impress me with how incredible their teaching techniques are. What I love most is that they truly take the time to understand each child's individual learning needs. They offer one-on-one tutoring as well as small-group tutoring, making sure each child gets the attention and support they need to succeed. My girls have been coming to Ready Study Go for about four years now, and honestly, they have been a lifesaver! With my crazy work schedule, I don't know what I would have done without them. I truly believe my girls would not be where they are today academically without the support, encouragement, and guidance they have received from this amazing team. My daughters also attended their summer program for math and chemistry to make sure they were prepared for the next grade level. Karyn has an incredible ability to make learning fun, even during the summer, while keeping them engaged and excited to learn. My daughters have ADHD, so I especially appreciate how Karyn took the time to figure out what worked best for each of them and found creative ways to help them absorb and retain what they were learning. I've attached a few photos of one of their assignments, where Karyn made math fun, interesting, and hands-on by having them create a spooky town. It's moments like this that really show how much thought and creativity goes into their teaching. Karyn, Kyle, and everyone at Ready Study Go -- I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, support, patience, and genuine care for my children. You have played such an important role in their academic growth and achievements, and we are so grateful to have found you! If you're looking for a tutoring and after-school program that truly cares about your child as an individual, Ready Study Go is the place to go!

They connect with their tutors and heed their advice. Ready Study Go affords my kids the extra time needed to really focus on the lessons that are taught during their regular school day. With two working parents we find it difficult to make time at home for homework and test preparation. But with Ready Steady Go, the children have completed all of their work by the time they come home. We are able to focus on their extra curricular activities. We are very happy with this program and continue to send our children here for homework assistance and subject tutoring.
