“The classes really forced me to do a lot of SAT practice problems that allowed me to become familiar with the actual questions on the exam. The teachers are really approachable and not intimidating, and they shared their own experiences with the SAT as well.

Vincent Liu’s mother

Vincent shared that his writing teacher has a great sense of humor and creates a lighthearted but rigorous environment where he can truly learn. The teacher also often encourages students to actively participate in class and express themselves... Vincent also learned how to express himself verbally from his peers during break times, sharing experiences and making lasting friendships.

Mother of Peter Zhu

My two children started at A+ in February, 2015. Within less than 8 months, their academic English has greatly improved! My 11th grader, Peter, has improved more than 300 points on his SAT after three sessions of study.

"My 10 year-old daughter Angel was not able to understand the teachers in school when she first started her study in the U.S. early this year, however, through this past half year of study at A+, Angel has caught up with her academic study and she has no problem participating in school now. Angel was shy to speak when she started school, but she is confident now to communicate with her teachers and peers."

Jianping

"I am a parent of two high school students. Both of children come to A+ Summer Programs for many years. The reason they want to come back again and again is because the teachers here are very knowledgeable in their subject areas and also they know how to communicate with kids in a way so that the kids can understand new materials very quickly and effectively. Usually, my son will fight with us for any extra courses outside of classroom. But A+ Program is the one he is always looking forward to be in. I highly recommend A+ Program to any parents, who want their children to get either extra challenges or extra help besides school works."

"I have been with ASC for many years, and I found that the summer programs were a great balance between work and play. By going to these sessions, I was able to better remember what I had learned the year before, and also learn about what I would be taught in the coming year. In the afternoon, ASC managed to balance out hard work with fun, as we went on many fun field trips such as visiting museums and going to the park. Overall, ASC has helped me become a better student and will always be a fond memory."

Evan Zhang

"I first heard of ASC about a year ago when my sister first took a lesson here. Later did I realize that ASC also offered a volunteer program. I signed up for the program thinking that it would be nothing more than we grinding out my hours for school. When I first arrived at ASC, I realized that my assumption was nothing but incorrect. ASC does a great job at balances academic learning with leisure and free time. Even as a volunteer helping out younger students, I realized that ASC tries it's very best to ensure a great program to enhance not just the academic material but also the urge to learn more. Overall, I would recommend ASC to anyone who wants take a chance to explore paths and visions that they never knew they had."

Monica Depina and Erma Pinto (Parents of students from Middle ISEE class)

“The program has helped our daughters so much in preparing them for the Middle ISEE test. The teachers are attentive and experienced in teaching test prep. Our kids have made major improvements on their tests. The material learned in class is also helping our kids at school! All the staff members are friendly and really care about each of the students. The staff and teachers are always updating us on progress of our kids and are extremely knowledgeable about the ISEE testing process. Our kids have had an amazing learning experience. We recommend the A plus program to anyone who is looking to get help in test prep or get ahead in learning. “

Parent of 7th Grader in Saturday Program and Summer Sessions

“Our experience started with the summer enrichment program. We saw children wearing the A+ tee-shirt on an school- wide outing one day. We were looking for an enrichment program in which our son could keep from getting rusty on math skills during the summer vacation. We then started sending him to classes to prepare for the SSAT/ISEE as well as to support 7th grade math. He loves it! “Mom, I found like-minded kids – The are very smart and they like to play video games!”
I am sure we will continue with ASC through high school as ASC has programs to support students through high school math and certainly to prepare for college entry with the SAT .”

Henry

My son, Henry, attends the Boston Latin school and is currently a 7th grader. This is quite an accomplishment for him, since he is dyslexic and dysgraphic. He took the Middle School Writing workshop last summer and I think it helped him a lot going into this year. He seems to agree and would like to come back this summer since he still struggles with writing fluency. Last summer, Henry liked the teacher and the Diana King's curriculum was a great fit.
