My daughter enjoyed both tutors and really appreciated their distinct approaches to their subject. Bottom line - her scores jumped in both areas of testing.

He has recommended his tutor to many of his friends who need reinforcement or just a quick refresher - and they all had positive experiences! Dogwood Tutoring is a great resource for anyone who needs the extra support.

My son was a rising 8th grader and DID NOT want to attend the summer Algebra Boot Camp. However, he completed his first semester of Advanced Algebra with a 94 avg!!

He even brags to other kids about how well the camp prepared him. Thank you, Robin!! Michelle H.

The regular school work,SAT,ACT,and college applications consume most everyday for 2 years.

She not only graduated with honors,but was also accepted to an outstanding University. There is no question that The Learning Island was instrumental in helping my daughter with her acceptance to an incredible University. I highly recommend The Learning Island! Jennifer K "

We loved that they came to us, which made it much easier to fit in SAT prep during the school year. My daughter and I both felt very comfortable with them. The most valuable part of her tutoring was learning about SAT strategy and how to decode the test. The hourly rate was very reasonable, and I think my daughter really benefitted from the one-on-one tutoring that was customized to her needs. I anticipate her score will have really improved over her practice test score. I will be certain to update my review once scores have posted.

We had a fantastic experience with Academics Plus in getting an SSAT Flex test for my child. Due to…read moreCOVID, the SSAT has turned to an all online SSAT at home. We didn't think that would be the best approach for our child so I asked around about alternatives and was so happy to be referred to Academics Plus for a paper-based Flex test. Alexa with Academics Plus made the process very easy for me! After an online inquiry, she reached out with a phone call to explain their process and fees. I was able to schedule a test on my preferred date with no problems and Alexa kept in communication with me via email right up until test date to ensure I was aware of SSAT requirements, their COVID protocols, and generally able to answer any questions I had. Due to COVID, they are limiting entry into the facility at this time, so on the day of the test, I walked my 6th grader to the door and she met us there. She was very warm and made sure he was comfortable before they entered to go take the test. He was able to take the test in a private room and because there was nobody else in the room with him, he was able to unmask during the test, which made it a more comfortable experience for him. I have already recommended Academics Plus to friends but would want to share our positive experience with anyone looking for a paper-based SSAT option or generally needing a Flex test for the SSAT.

I underestimated how grueling the commute from my home in Columbia, SC would be. I wish I had made it to more. Zach the instructor of the course was great in working me with me via email. I'd send a question and get back a thorough minimum 1 page response per question. My situation is that I'm recently engaged and just moved from California. I informed Zach and blueprint of that. They let me know they would do they're best to accommodate me. Part of the package I purchased included the Blueprint videos, which are commonly referred to as a movie. I believe it was $300 extra. Well worth it. When I did make it to class if there was something I didn't grasp throughly I had plenty of resources available to review, if I didn't feel like pestering Zach to much. He never made me feel like I was asking too many questions and always encouraged me to keeping brining him the questions. The curriculum is lengthy and I did some condensing on my own, which I found to help me. Ultimately I decided to hold of for the February LSAT. Given my situation blueprint offered me a free extension of the online resources through the Feb exam. I really appreciated that! From my 1st practice exam to second I came up 9 points, but then I started to slip on my study regiment. I truly believe that I could do a 15 point jump utilizing their curriculum and sticking to a strict study schedule.

My instructor Zach, was super approachable with any and all questions and the class size was relatively small (aproximately 15 students including myself). The location was great, free parking on all classroom meeting days and super quiet considering being located at a college campus. The classroom itself was good size, and Zach mostly taught from the whiteboard in front, but also moved around asking questions, reading, going over strategies, etc. Also, as the course progresses and you get more comfortable he also allows students to come up and work out methods (especially game structures) with the assistance of the rest of the class. I definitely felt the Blueprint method worked, and helped me improve my familiarity and comfort level with the test we have all come to love (note sarcasm). I was fortunately able to attend all of the on-site classes, even though I had purchased the online as a just in-case I still utilized both heavily. The online videos cover the material covered in class, so since I attended all the classes I used the online as a review / reinforcement while covering the homework. If you participate in class, do the homework, you'll be rather surprised with how much information you have retained by the third practice test. If you don't do anything else on-site I recommend doing all the practice tests on-site at minimum! Zach is great for helping to set it up like the real thing - which definitely helped me cut back on some anxiety come test day (I took the Dec 6 LSAT). Bottom line is if you are going to take the LSAT, and you aren't some weird oober genuis who thinks about everything from an analytical / formal logic structure take Blueprint to prepare for your LSAT. If you do not take Blueprint, you probably won't do as well on the LSAT. If you don't do well on the LSAT, you won't go to a good law school. If you don't go to a good law school, you won't get that top law salary. If you don't get that top law salary, you will never find happiness. Do yourself a favor take the Blueprint course, and find happiness. =] (I will post another review once I get my scores!)
