We have used Jeff at Integral Tutoring for two years now. He is the best tutor in the…read moreScottsdale/Phoenix area for Math and Chemistry. We have found that the majority of tutors in the area have difficulty tutoring at higher levels of Math and Chemistry. Jeff on the otherhand is well versed in the Honors and AP levels of Math and Science. My son was testing in the 70s in Honor Chemistry and with Jeff's help he made a 95.5 on his last test! Also, the other tutoring centers we have tried seem to have high turnover. It is nice to work with Jeff consistently because he is able to understand my son's strengths and weaknesses and therefore more efficiently help him learn the lessons. I find Jeff is priced competitively and you will definitely get your money's worth at Integral tutoring. He is very professional with your time and stays focused on helping your student learn and get the work done.

He does a great job of explaining and always comes prepared with examples and practice problems. My daughter worked with a tutor before Arasp and he did not do a good job of teaching her pre-calc, he showed her how to solve the problems but didn't teach it to her. Arasp really teaches and helps her understand every step. It seemed as if she would never catch on until she started working with Arasp. He really does a wonderful job and I would recommend him to anyone needing help with math.

He wasn't used to sitting down with teachers, but the tutor really knew how to keep him engaged and to handle his behaviors (hyperactivity) when they arose.

As the director, Tina was very responsive and flexible in working with us every step of the way. Most importantly, this company has a lot of heart.

Our son had been struggling with school for quite some time now. For some reason, the lessons were…read morejust not sinking in and he would get more frustrated due to poor performance and he became caught in a vicious cycle of falling behind which led to worsening academic performance. My husband and I were becoming demoralized as well because the extra time we spent with our son on his lessons and homework were not helping. A friend I met at yoga told me about Sylvan and how it literally transformed her son from a struggling student to straight A's. It sounded to good to be true but the more I researched about the program and it's methodology, I was convinced enough to at least try. Within a month of his tutoring at Sylvan, I noticed a significant difference in my son's attitude. He was no longer frustrated with school work and actually started enjoying it because he understood the concepts. His performance has drastically improved and along with it, his confidence. I am so grateful to Sylvan for helping my son find his strengths and for nurturing his academic growth.

So my new job requires an Insurance Brokers License so I had to sign up for the class here. It was…read morea 2-day class taught by a VERY nice and experienced agent, Peter. He took plenty of time to make sure everything was understood and tried his best to make things interesting...but let's be honest, learning the inner workings of insurance is dry to say the least. They provided plenty of learning materials offered as much assistant as is possible. For what it was the class was great and very informative. Highly recommended. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5? They only offer uncovered parking so my car was essentially an oven every time I left.

Update: 2015-08-22 Well, passed my exam and I would say that the materials provided by TesTeachers…read moreare complete and informative. I also did not experience an outtage again, so I'm bumping them up to 3 stars. Haven't heard that they've done anything to permanently mitigate the outtages, but if I do, they get another star or two from me as they have a complete package otherwise. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Update: 2015-12 This is a little delayed, but I was contacted directly by TesTeachers and they apologized for the outage and assured me that they do have backup systems but on occasion, even with backups, they've encountered short term outages in the past. They also offered me a highly discounted rate if I chose to do further training through them in the future. Changing my recommendation to 5 stars even though I will probably not need further training, simply in view of their good service and follow up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original Review: Training for Insurance license. The company I'm with recommends this online provider, so here I am. The content is good, users can also download and review material offline which is nice. The reason that it's not 4 or 5 stars is because they don't seem to have a reliable server that they host their online software on. Trying to logon today and their website is "not found?!!" Spoke with customer service and their systems are also down. Seriously? There is a California-mandated timer on their website that makes sure that you're active and logs your time. You can't pass until you've been active on the site for the set amount of time. So, anyone trying to study and get time credited is out of luck until their servers are back up as there is no way to manually credit you study time either. I understand that this is partially the fault of the State of California and their silly rules, but as a serious service provider being paid serious $, there is really little excuse these days to be down for an hour or more (in the middle of the day), unless your cloud infrastructure is being hosted in someone's garage. TesTeachers, do us all a favor and use AWS or another serious, redundant backend please. Downtime in the middle of the day is no longer excusable when there are so many options for redundancy. Our time is valuable, please respect your customers by not wasting it. Let me know that you've taken steps to mitigate this issue and I will gladly raise my rating to a 4 or 5. Fellow yelpers, before forking over your money, ask a company about their outtages and if they're doing anything to mitigate them. Don't get stuck with a company that will drop offline when you need them.

Dental education is expensive. I don't know anyone that could deny that. But every time I come…read morehere, I return home way more energized and excited about dentistry than I had been. How much is that worth? "Complex cases" do t seem as complex as they used to. Sure, patients don't always follow through, but I feel better about presenting the cases to them, and when they move forward, I have the confidence to do it well. I went to one workshop I wasn't happy with. It seemed a little basic to me, and a review of what I just learned in dental school. They offered me a refund, but we came to an even better compromise. The people here legitimately want us to succeed. Build yourself a great team. These people should be part of it.

He went above and beyond, taking time after work on a Friday to walk me through the entire Spear platform. That alone says so much about his dedication.

I'm a dentist, and I've worked with a lot of different reps, but Michael stands out. He feels like the leader of all the managers! He truly understands the value of everything Spear has to offer and explains it so well that I feel like he could sell any course to anyone. Spear is lucky to have him, and he deserves the biggest applause!
