Our kid has been going to Tutoring Club of SF for almost a year and a half. In that time, we have seen tremendous growth in their learning skills, despite their learning challenges. It all starts with an assessment and a conversation between your learner and Mr. A, which we were able to do remotely. The assessment informs a recommended learning path. In our situation, while I thought our kid only needed help with math, Mr. A recommended starting with reading comprehension. I was skeptical, but he stated that because of how math is taught today (i.e. lots of word problems), if we boost reading comprehension, math will follow. We went with his recommendation, and I saw a gradual improvement over the first 8 months in our kid's reading scores and homework independence. Then we added math sessions. The results speak for themselves. Standardized test scores at the start of our kid's time with Tutoring Club had them about 2 grade levels *below* their grade for reading and math. Currently, our kid is testing at 2.5 grade levels above their current grade level for reading, and at current grade level for math. Our kid is now an honor roll kid. I spend **significantly** less time every night helping our kid through their homework. Our kid is more independent and confident, and enjoys school again. While I do believe this is in large part due to our kid's school teachers, I also credit Tutoring Club for giving our kid learning skills that enable independence, at their pace. Thank you, Tutoring Club!
