The team was attentive to the various age ranges of children, patient with all of our questions, and clearly prioritized the well-being of both the children and the animals. The cleanup was handled efficiently, as if it never happened. Overall, I highly recommend this company for this service. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and warm hospitality made the party fun and memorable!

I was shocked at the way they talked to the kids and parents in that center.

I was able to catch up on math concepts I had trouble understanding along with getting ahead of the game during summertime sessions. I am currently taking Alg 3-4 as a sophomore and am about to take Pre-Calc/Trig next year thanks to Mathnasium!

As an adult, I felt a little out of place, but often I was getting tutoring at the same time as another middle aged adult who was in a similar situation and this helped to alleviate some of my discomfort. Monica was my tutor and she did a great job bringing me back up to speed and was very understanding. The kids that were there at the same time as me, seemed surprised and amused by my presence there. Mathnasium was also good at working with my scedule, which required rescheduling my appointment several times. I highly recommended their service for all ages!

I've always wanted to study abroad it's been a dream of mine and I thought CSA would make my dream…read morecome true, but they couldn't even answer the simplest questions through email, or pick up the damn phone. Let me start off by saying I never sent in the deposit money. I wanted all my questions answered before I gave CSA $500. I was really interested in doing the semester long program in Russia. I thought it was an amazing deal to study in Russia for one semester for $2995. At first I tried calling CSA because I had specific questions about the food and housing, no one picks up the phone. After scrolling through the website it says they prefer all questions to be asked through email which I thought it was weird, but I asked the question. Every time I asked a question, it took whoever I was talking to 4 hours to respond or they'll respond the next day. I had a really specific question about paying for the program because I was going to pay for the program using the Consortium Agreements. I contacted financial aid at my university explaining my plan and I told them the website name and left them a link to the program. The lady at the office called me back and told me she was on the website and wanted to know if the university in Russia took Title IV credit/aid and if it was a US accredited university. Knowing CSA wasn't going to pick up their phone I told the lady at the financial aid office I was going to ask CSA. I went back and emailed whoever I was talking to and she didn't know if the school took Title IV credit/aid. A few days later the lady at my school's financial aid office called me, and it looks like she did some research and contacted the school in Russia. She told me the school doesn't take Title IV credit/aid and they couldn't help me pay for the program. She also said it wasn't worth it because the credits wouldn't transfer to the school. I'm really upset because CSA has no idea what they are doing. They don't even know the answer to the questions maybe that's why their responses are so vague. I'm going to upload the conversation between CSA and I to show that they don't know what they are doing.

Wow there's some tough reviews here! So I went ahead (without doing my due diligence by checking…read morereviews I guess) and really had a very positive experience. I did 4 weeks over summer in Paris to do the International Business studies and improve my French and the program itself was truly amazing. A couple of things to note that I learned while I was there: there were others in my program who had paid a lot more than I did but they also got a great deal more hand holding throughout the process than I did. Fine by me though, I was happy with the DIY. Others went directly through the school and got zero assistance but it was a little cheaper. A few of those folks had issues along the way but again, fine by me as I was happy to get a little guidance but didn't need a lot. So yeah I can see where people's expectations may not be a good match as it can all be pretty tough to navigate all these study abroad options but my experience was pretty great. I can appreciate that others had pretty rough experiences so I figure I could at least provide some info on the other side, people tend to post when they're frustrated vs when happy. Also important to note that I emailed them one time and they replied straight away. Sounded like something that people had issues with. I never had to call though.

Jason came out and was able to solve the problem and then refused to charge for it. He wouldn't even accept money for his time and transportation with gas now over $6.00. This was a level of honesty and customer service is above and beyond anything I've previously experienced. They have won me as a return customer should I need work on some future plumbing issue.

The inspector said that he had not seen roots come back that aggressively in his decades in the industry and suggested that Raptor's hydrojetting in June was not complete. I contacted Raptor by phone and email and sent along the inspector's video to see if they would stand by their work. Despite multiple outreach attempts, Raptor never called back and I had to pay for a different company to come and thoroughly jet the line. The technician from that company also suggested that Raptor had done an incomplete job in June based on the root growth he saw.

Allegro has been amazing! It feels like a family and second home for my daughter and there is so much room for her to grow with Allegro as she ages.

We absolutely love the owner, staff, and teachers and communication with parents is excellent. I would recommend to those who are wanting to dance at any level from recreational to those with processional aspirations. My daughter has received top training and has had the most incredible teachers over the years!! She trains in every style offered and I fully believe she'd live at the studio if possible :D Additionally I recommend checking out their amazing competition team program. A BIG thing I love is that they offer sensory friendly performances and have a beautiful danceABLE program. I really don't feel there is anywhere else like Allegro in WA state. Thank you Allegro for being my daughter's home away from home.
