    I forgot her name, I think it was Ana, the girl who helps the manager, ignored my question about the program. She was rude. Never again.

    Hello I wanted to find out if you do NCLEX review?

    Hello Maria, Thank you for the question. Unfortunately, no, we do not have a specific program for the NCLEX. Our focus is on regular academic subjects for students K-12 and… Read more

    We've been with Huntington Education for almost a year now, and I can honestly say the experience…read morehas been incredibly encouraging for our son. Math has always been a sore spot for him--especially with his slower processing speed--but the support, patience, and structure provided by the Huntington team has made a difference in both his skills and, more importantly, his willingness to keep trying. What stands out most is the level of personal investment the instructors make in each student. Mr. Justin, in particular, has gone out of his way to understand how my son learns and where he needs extra reinforcement. It never feels like a one-size-fits-all program; it's truly tailored support that meets him where he's at and helps him move forward at his pace. As a parent, my biggest concern has always been that he not only improves academically, but also feels capable of keeping up with his peers--and Huntington has been key in helping us move toward that goal. I trust their approach, and we're fully committed to continuing with their program. I can't recommend Huntington Education enough. They've been a steady and positive partner for our family.

    My son is currently 8th Grade in a private school in Pasadena and has been going to Huntington for…read moreover one year now. He has been taking pre algebra and now Algebra with Ms. Liu. The math skills and techniques are being taking t here is no doubt one of the simplest. On top of that there is weekly home work packets go home with the students for them to practice the techniques taught in the classroom. The teacher will review the homework during the class. My son is not a natural hard working student. It is challenging to keep him from distractions. Ms. Liu has been keep us updated with his progress (up and downs) and also giving us reminders on how to keep track of his homework etc. I believe if your children are willing to get help and do some extra work outside of their schools, you will see progresses. And communicating with the teachers are very important as well!

    This establishment is something else. I signed up my son for some math tutoring and the contract…read moreprice was $66.00 per one hour session once a week till the end of this year. This was a month ago. Well since then my son has only gone to one session and thats because of the tutor he has is no longer a junior tutor but now a "premier" tutor and I should now have to pay the "premier" price for the same service. Well, I said no thank you find me another tutor and they did. Well my son really liked this tutor so we were all happy cuz that in it of itself is a task. Had one session, then I get an email from the school about a tutor leaving junior tutor to premier and to be happy for this person. Like I truly care. So low and behold I get a call saying that my tutor for my son cant tutor him unless I pay more money. I own a plumbing business if my journeyman plumber became a mater plumber in the middle of your job I cant charge you more money. Thats not your expense. So now I reported this to the BBB spoke to my attorney and sure enough this is not the way one conducts business. So please if you have your child here and they try to pull this bait and switch dont fall for it and know it's not legal

We appreciate their balance approach in nurturing students. Their program is well designed, tailored, and add excellent values to our kids' educational journey. Mr. and Mrs. Lee are some of the most wonderful, caring, kind and yet firm, professional, and talented people we met in our life. Thank you Mr./Mrs. Lee and thank you teachers and staff members of the educational center. It's a terrific educational center with multi purpose learning environment.

    We've been with Serena and staff since pretty much the beginning and it's really been a positive…read morejourney. She helped us get in to several of the best and top rated private schools in the state of Hawaii. She then prepared us to be academically ready for the private school curriculum, and even now, we are doing remote tutoring 3X a week and my son is really excelling. He received high honors (3.74 GPA) on his first report card in middle school n before that was just a B level student. This school pushes challenging academics and they really make their students earn their grades. We would never have been prepared for this type of curriculum had we not been constantly receiving enrichment from Elevate. I've told Serena that I was willing to pay full price even though we are totally remote and still it is so worth it. She's accommodating and extremely organized with scheduling while working so hard to advocate for both of my kids. Don't get me wrong, we have found a handful of really excellent tutors to work with us in person while we are in Hawaii. However none of them offer the services that Serena does, STEM classes, coding classes, book clubs, contests, pre-k tutoring, and she even worked to throw a private party for my son.... as that is what he wanted. We are never leaving as long as my kids are enrolled in school.

    This place is AWESOME!…read more The tutors are knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated to helping students succeed. Every child enrolled has shown significant improvement in their grades and confidence since starting at the center. The staff is also very responsive and communicative, keeping parents informed of child's progress and any areas that need extra attention. I highly recommend Elevate Educational Services to any parent looking for high-quality educational support for their child. TWO THUMBS UP!

    My experience at Elite was filled with an overwhelming amount of stress and fatigue. However, I…read morewould do it all over again knowing the end result. I first went to Elite the summer before my junior year for the SAT Prep Bootcamp. Admittedly, I hated every moment of it in the beginning. However, as the weeks went on, I came to look forward to my classes, as the teachers were friendly and easy to talk to, with a genuine desire to help their students understand the content. Although I may not have always been the best student, Elite's attentive staff and friendly environment combined with endless drilling of essays and math problems helped me improved my score over 200 points. I returned to Elite the summer before my senior year for their college application package. While the price tag on the CAW Plus Package may seem daunting, I can assure you that every cent was worth it. I was assigned to a counselor, Jon Kang, and an essay editor, Cheny Ng. Over the course of dozens of stressful one on one meetings, both on my end and on theirs (sorry Jon), they helped me transform my painfully incoherent essays into ones that were somehow tolerable enough to get me into my number one school. Once again, I found myself looking forward to Elite because my meetings with the counselors were not only filled with improvement, new ideas, and self discovery, they were filled with the amazing feelings of accomplishment and joy. In short, I've come to see Elite as another home because of how comfortable I've grown in that atmosphere and with all the staff. The people there truly care about the success of all their students and take the time and effort to make sure everyone gets the help they need. I've practically thrown out all the writing skills I acquired during my application process (bc let's be honest senioritis is very real) sIf you've made it this far in my review, I'd like to apologize for my writing, for I no longer have Jon and Cheny by my side to edit my work:(
