Their sessions were centered on strategy and learning how to organize and develop good study habits and while content teaching was a part of it, our son's growth into a confident student was the most important benefit. The last session with Jason is next week. Our son will be graduating from Ballard High School next Wednesday (with straight As) and in fall he is starting at UW Engineering - majoring in MechEng and Industrial Design. My husband and I are very grateful to Greg and Jason for all the support in last 4+ years. It was really great to know that even though our sone would not really listen to us, Jason will likely get through him and point him in the right direction. It was wonderful to work with NWES. finding them was one of the luckiest accidents!

A few months ago, I was applying for jobs and was felt like my cover letter writing skills were…read morerusty. Even though Heather's primary focus is working with high school students, I reached out for help with my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile. She had great advice regarding how to increase my attractiveness and visibility to recruiters including appropriate buzzwords on my LinkedIn profile. Once I was selected for interviews, Heather helped coach me through commonly asked questions. It was very useful to consult someone who has been on the other side of selecting and interviewing candidates. I ended up significantly revamping my resume and reaching out to recruiters on LinkedIn and I was successful in securing my desired position. Heather is approachable and professional. I appreciated her honesty and sincerity throughout the process and I found her feedback to be extremely valuable. I would highly recommend her if you are seeking assistance in presenting yourself to prospective employers or colleges.

My experience is the same as Jamie J.'s. Steven, Sandy and Kaitlin were fantastic and gave as much…read moreof their time as I needed to get me where I wanted to be before the June 2011 LSAT (all the tutoring is included in tuition!) After taking Steven Klein's course, my score increased from the 40th percentile to the 83rd percentile. Not only did Steven and Kaitlin help me increase my score by a gigantic amount, they made the process enjoyable. From day 1, Steven told everyone they would be ready and built up both skills at taking the test and confidence in those skills in the students. The Steven Klein LSAT Company was recommended to me on three separate occasions by completely unrelated people who all had rave reviews. Steven has taught over 6,000 students, and he has studying for the test down to a science. Now, having successfully taken the test, I am taking advantage of the Sandy's assistance with applying to law school (another service that is included in the tuition!), and because I took LSAT prep from the Steven Klein LSAT Company I am confident I will get into a great school. Take an hour to drop by Steven's office in the University Heights Center or just visit the website. I would not go anywhere else for your LSAT needs.

They sent the…read morematerials for class a few business days before class with an ETA to arrive after class has started. I noticed this and tried to have it delivered on time but the only answer I got was "I'm sorry".

We were referred by a friend and have since discovered that other friendsalso love this gem of a learning center. We started with this tutoring company when my son was a Junior in High School. We wanted him to work on self-management and on specific writing and math skills. He was getting a little lazy and scattered. Most importantly, we wanted our son to set some goals for himself and work toward those goals. The support that he received from Next Steps was just what he needed. The staff are highly qualified and really gave our son what he needed, from so many disciplines. Week by week we benefitted from teachers who specialize in math/science, writing, executive functioning, college/career planning and selection, and college essay writing. The pre-college planning for SAT and college essay writing took a lot of time but it was a tremendous growth experience. My son became a student who persisted in finding resources to complete what was necessary at school managed his own assignments and work. His self reliance skills really improved, and his motivation and pride in his work grew. Now that my son is recently graduated from high school and will be entering the college of his choice, I look back and know for a fact that the expert, personalized, focused help that he received from Next Steps Tutoring played a significant role in his success. As he enters college I know that he has tools to manage himself and his learning. In the near future my son will have some pre-college tutoring / success planning from his teachers at Next Steps Tutoring, just to strategize and prepare for his first year at college. I know that these teachers are available by phone or Skype in the future for him. It is so wonderful from a parent's perspective to see the growth of a young person. Seattle folks, give these teachers a call!
