    We tried multiple tutors before going to Rishabh. While many of them were teaching for years and…read morehad fancy websites, their actual teaching styles do not connect and motivate high school students. The first day my freshman high schooler met with Rishabh, they connected right away. Since Rishabh went through California high schools a few years back, he's very informed about curriculum and also with extracurriculars. He works with the student together to create a study plan for multiple subjects. He keeps a long-term goal to be successful at college admissions - by advising on courses, extracurriculars, and athletics. Rishabh's style is to teach to learn the actual concepts, and not just to memorize for tests or grades. Before Rishabh, most of my child's grades were low Bs, and now it's As across the board. If you're looking for a tutor who will motivate your child to learn, as well as improve grades with a college plan, then I fully recommend Rishabh as the tutor.

    We couldn't be more grateful for Rishabh! Upon looking for a tutor for our son, we were very…read morespecific in finding someone that our teen can connect with. My son was really struggling with Math 2 during his sophomore year and was at risk of failing. With Rishabh's guidance, my son not only caught up but truly understood and became interested in the material for the first time. Rishabh speaks not only about his classes but his other interests as well -- and this relationship has made my teen trust, respect, and connect with him more. This year, his junior year, he finished with an A in math. Beyond grades, he has also gained confidence in the other classes Rishabh has helped him with and no longer dreads starting on homework. If you're looking for a tutor who can connect with your child and takes the time to make sure they really get it, we highly recommend Rishabh!

    My daughter takes vocal classes and she's singing many classic Italian, French and German songs…read more Our vocal teacher recommended that she could learn any or all of the 3 foreign languages to best understand and pronounce the songs. Plus learning a foreign language helps with cognitive development. So I thought why not? It's common for Europeans to speak multiple foreign languages. So through friend's referral, I found Marco Polo Kids, a non profit org. I love their concept of combining in person and online classes. Language like any learning, but more so, requires consistent efforts. In person 1-on-1 lessons are effective but can get pricy, even though their in person classes are very reasonably priced already! We scheduled a trial class for $25, which is indeed no risk. Language Coach Simona came to our house, and my daughter (7-yr old) loved her first Italian class so much, I decided to purchase a 30 In person package and 30 online package. Marco Polo Kids Education Consultant (their customer service) recommended that since my daughter has 0 Italian experience, we do twice a week in person classes at the beginning for 1-2 months, then transition to once a week in person class and 2 mini online sessions. Simona is the best! She has a PhD in Italy with years of teaching experience. Her husband got a job in the US, so she followed him. She's soooo patient and kids friendly. She sends an email to me summarizing each class. I'm confident that my daughter can speak basic fluent Italian in 6 months. It's amazing how quickly my daughter learned. I was shocked at how much she remembered the previous class during the review in the next class. I know as her mother, she didn't even study in between 2 classes due to other school commitments. It confirmed that it's the right decision to learn a foreign language early on. It would be "a bit" harder for us adults for sure :-) And I'm so glad that my friend recommended Marco Polo Kids. I'll be recommending them to other parents!

    This review is about Angela Sun's college counselling abilities. Our experience was exactly the…read moreopposite of what's written here and I would give negative stars if I could !! She was an absolute nightmare to deal with and has zero emotional intelligence or tact to deal with young teens !! She preys on parent's weaknesses and has clearly understood parents would do anything for their children as long as she says things like she got admission into MIT, Ivy's and self proclaims that she is the absolute best college consultant who will make your child write the absolute best essays he can ever write !! (I am paraphrasing it but she said something like that to me in our first meeting !). She made it amply clear even before I met for the first time that all she cares about is money and nothing else ! She charged me $300 per hr saying it's "the weekend rate" - whatever that means (although her website only mentions 250 per hr ). She was laser focused on the money in our conversations and showed zero interest in knowing my child before or after the meeting. Her website says parents will get a detailed report within 24 hrs of the first meeting, and we received no such report. The first meeting was a complete disaster. She was so rude (and please don't say she is strict/tough /good etc). No - she was plain rude and not good as a counselor !! My son was so scared of her that after a point stopped answering even basic questions ! She gave as little info as possible in the session and made it laborious by asking my son to type out literally every word that came out of her mouth (all of it was just general info and nothing anyone wouldn't know about college admissions)! Despite all these negative signals, I still tried to go ahead with scheduling a few more sessions, because believe it or not, my son insisted he wanted to try her a bit more before giving up ! I wanted to understand how many sessions my son would need and in her response she had the audacity to say my child was a "non high functioning" kid and hence would probably need many sessions (being vague and open ended of course to milk as much money as possible from me) ! The "genius" in her, inferred all this about my son from just the 1 hr meeting !! Not to brag - Honestly, my child is in a highly specialized gifted track at school and elsewhere and in fact the very reason I was looking for a counselor so early on was to make sure I give him all the advantages possible and guide him using the best counselors ! She quoted a ridiculous number of hours at the rate of $300 per hr and I told her , her website states she will only need 3-4 sessions for coming up with a 4 year plan and her response was "website is outdated " !!! (can you believe that ??) Parents, please be careful when choosing a counselor. Please make sure the counselor has the right emotional intelligence, credentials , experience to deal with your child in this vulnerable yet important stage of their life. Please don't select a counselor based purely on 5 star online reviews or what these counselors say they achieved for themselves. If in your initial interactions you detect the counselor's main focus is money, and not your child or if the counselor is rude, evasive about answering your questions , please take these red flags seriously and run miles away from her/him ! I am very thankful that I was able to detect this problem early on and not expose my child to a horrible 4 year counselling experience !

    I agree with S A 's review. Not great at emotional intelligence with teens. I think she's got a…read moremethod and that works for some kids, she isn't into customizing for how the child learns. I am sharing that his score went down a full 100 points after - full 3 months of tutoring with her. Worst yet when we shared this news she never responded to us again.
