    Craig With my son (to the right of him) in 5th grade.
    Lynn H.

    Craig was the reason our son began loving school again, and maintained a 4.0 gpa through High School. Our son started working with Craig in the 5th grade; and continued to work with him through Middle school. We were so fortunate to have Craig as the first teacher our son had after years of struggling at another school. With a processing learning difference, our son was terrified of taking tests, and would freeze up. Craig is a patient, kind, and encouraging teacher who enabled our son to have the confidence both inside and outside of the classroom. Our son became a different person after just a few weeks of being in Craig's classroom. He not only makes learning fun, but understands how to create a wonderful environment that allows kids to be the best student they can be.

    My daughter found Oxford after trying several other college counselors for essay help. Many lacked…read moreempathy, patience, knowledge about culture, or how to draw the reader in with more than facts in the short space of word count. JT was the gift she needed. He made himself available, is patient, accommodating and has the worldly life & writing skills to hit all the angles. My daughter did the base work and research on her own for the foundation for her essays, but JT knew how to hone them to make sense, and get everything in the word count without compromising the emotion my girl was seeking. She was distraught and overwhelmed until she found him through word of mouth at school. JT was the first college counselor that could work one on one with her and I didn't have to be part of the process because after reading what they produced, we trusted him. She ultimately earned full tuition in 5 merit scholarships to our local US News ranked top 25 college because she had put in the hard work academically, and holistically through the years, but JT understood her goals to write a story weaving in everything she had done (which was a lot) within the word count without compromising the quality of essays. My recommendation is for your teen do the research on the strongest activities they want to present in a bullet point list, pre-write out factual essays trying to squeeze in a coherent story and then go to JT to help him understand the direction. This saved her time and us money, plus helped her feel confident when they would hang up on what she was to go fix before the next call. She did all by Zoom, and maximized her time this way. From there, they crafted compelling essays that I'm still proud to re-read. Thank you Oxford for finding JT. We could not have gotten through this without him. Will definitely be using him for child number 2 when the time comes soon.

Melissa was great from the beginning with answering questions about the program, setting up schedules and being flexible when we needed to change days/times due to my son's sports commitment. The initial pre-test he only scored a 21. We trusted Melissa and JT to help him bring up his score enrolling him in a 26-session package, twice a week. I am thrilled to share that he scored a 32 on the official ACT test. This was a huge jump from what he started. My son says he really enjoyed working with Melissa, that she made learning enjoyable and understandable. I highly recommend using Melissa to support for ACT preparation. Thank you Melissa!

The person responsible doesn't care. All they care about is collecting money from customers by hyping up the qualifications of their teachers even though of their teachers have little to no experience teaching. They usually don't give refunds after payment. As far as the curriculum is concerned, both their methods and materials are very outdated. Even though the SAT currently allow calculators and the use of desmos, this place ignore the advantages the technology offers and insist on using the traditional methods of instruction using only the pencil.

Their 6 week program can drastically improve your score if you were a 50th percentile type student or boost you from 2100 to above 2300 if you're a top student. Students in the summer SAT boot camp have daily classes from 8:30am to 1pm. A strict regimen of 50 vocabulary words on flash cards are tested on each morning. Weekly full SAT testing is done every Monday to track progress of each student. I highly recommend Elite for students entering their Junior year of High School.

She has also gained more confidence, her instructor is very positive and encouraging. They are extremely flexible with hours/scheduling.

After every session I get an e-mail with notes from her instructor sharing what they covered in the lesson and how it went with a list of things she did well and things she can continue to practice. Also, the sessions are easy to use and set up, it's just a link to click in an e-mail instead of downloading or installing Zoom or any other platform on the device. If I want them to cover any specific homework assignment, workbook, skill or even state testing practice they incorporate that into the session for us. I would highly recommend them!

That level of dedication says everything about the kind of instructor he is. He genuinely cares about his students passing. If you're serious about passing your real estate exam and want someone who explains things in a way that truly sticks, Armando is your guy. I walked into the test confident -- and I passed.

Armando is hands down the Best instructor and provides you with all the tools and resources you need to both pass the exam and become successful in this field. His team is very supportive and truly care about the success of every student. There's a ton of information to learn. However, Armando creates a fun learning environment and makes learning the material much easier. Make sure to take advantage of all the classes that the academy offers (i.e Crash Course or Got Licensed, Now What). My journey was a little different. I completed Armando's course many years ago but had put off taking the test. I decided to take the exam last year in 2024 and, unfortunately, did not know where to start. I had lost all of my materials and my subscriptions had expired. I reached out to Armando to see if he would be able to assist me or give me any guidance. He told me exactly what I needed to do during that call. Also, he urged me to sign up for a Crash Course. I followed every step to the T and am proud to say that I'm officially licensed.

He was near the bottom of his class and his teacher suggested that he consider leaving the honors program as he was near the bottom of the class.

From the first session I knew he was different as he took his time to figure out exactly where my little cousin was at and proceeded to create lesson plans tailored to his needs. By the end of the semester, he was near the top of the class and started loving going to school.
