The tutor provided for or 10, now 11 year old grandson is clearly the best tutor we have ever hired. I was concerned about her being on zoom, but they quickly established a relationship. Part of the tutoring process each session is games. I hear them giggling all the time. Highly recommend!

Response from the owner:Hi Clem, thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear how strong the connection has been between your grandson and his tutor. 😊 Building rapport and making learning engaging (remotely!) are huge parts of our approach. We’re so glad the games, relationship, and results have made such a positive impression. Thank you for trusting us and for the enthusiastic recommendation!

It takes a great weight off my shoulders when an impartial coach is going over everything with my student and helping keeping him on track. Especially when he admits he rarely listens to the wisdom and knowledge I do have, and states me asking him questions stresses him out. Boggles the imagination.

Response from the owner:Hi Cathy,
Thank you for sharing this! So many parents will read your words and nod along. We hear this all the time. Having an impartial executive function coach can completely change the dynamic, taking pressure off the parent-child relationship while still giving students the structure and accountability they need. We’re so glad this support has helped your student stay on track. We truly appreciate you taking the time to leave this review.

Educational Connections not only met my daughter's academic needs but made her feel confident and supported. She looks forward to her sessions because she knows that it is okay to be struggling and that she has an extremely competent and supportive tutor there by her side. Her different tutors have all been very flexible, ready to meet when her schedule sometimes became complicated. We will continue to work with Educational Connections in the future.

Response from the owner:Thank you, Beth, for your thoughtful review. We’re so glad your daughter feels confident, supported, and genuinely comfortable in her sessions. Helping students know that it’s okay to struggle, and that they’re not alone while they learn, is central to our approach. We’re also happy to hear our tutors’ flexibility made it easier to navigate a busy schedule. Thank you for trusting us to support your family, and we look forward to continuing to work together.

Education Connections has been instrumental in providing academic support for my son who struggles with ADHD. Having enrolled my son in various supplemental tutoring services in the past, I enrolled my son with EC as a last resort but at the same time a bit of hope that this might just be the right fit for my kiddo. Little did I know that this was going to be the game changer. My son was struggling and falling behind on his homework and having 1-on-1 support has helped him tremendously in getting caught up with work that he was lagging in but also in improving in his grades - he made tremendous improvements in his grades this semester.
I would recommend Education Connections to any parent. My son's tutor has been patient in tutoring my son and has enabled him regain his confidence especially in course areas that he was previously hesitant to attempt. I'm grateful that my family gave EC a chance; the investment was worthwhile.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Christine, for sharing your family’s journey with us. We’re honored that you gave Educational Connections a chance and grateful to hear how impactful one-on-one support has been for your son. Supporting students with ADHD through patience, structure, and individualized strategies while helping them rebuild confidence is exactly why we do this work. It’s wonderful to hear about his academic progress and the gains he’s made this semester. Thank you for your trust and recommendation. We truly value being part of your son’s growth and success!
