I went here for about 4 years before I moved on to a better and more personal learning center. My 4 years here weren't as pleasant..maybe the 1st but it all went downhill afterwar...

Horrible 11/30/2011

I went here for about 4 years before I moved on to a better and more personal learning center. My 4 years here weren't as pleasant..maybe the 1st but it all went downhill afterwards. I felt so intimidated to ask questions in class because some of the teachers do make you feel stupid, plus there's like 30 more smart kids who just want to move on. As you can see, I didn't do so well because I have always felt the pressure and anxiety and they would make me stay after school until I understood, which I give them props for, but the teachers can be harsh. They're way too harsh with disciplining. It was a complete waste of money and Saturday mornings that I could have used to study independently and peacefully all those years. Instead, my mornings (and days) were ruined with discouragement and advanced materials I would learn in school some years later (which I would've already forgotten). I remember how tight the classrooms were, how hard it was for a breeze in the classrooms. The whole floor smelled so bad. They used to have 2 locations back then and the location on Canal was so much better. I think the only memorable teacher was Sam, the English teacher. His teaching was entertaining and I can say that I still remember some of the things I've learned from him, but that was it. more

Waste of Money! 8/20/2005

I went to Excel Learning Center for a summer acceleration program when I was in junior high school. It was a total waste of time and money. They made us pay all these fees to create an id card and made us show it every time we walked it. It wasn't like the tutoring center was big. It only consisted of a few classrooms so I didn't think it was necessary for us to pay for identification cards. Also, the tutors were great but they often complained that Excel wasn't great because they weren't paying the tutors the amount they deserved. They were always lacking dry erase markers and the tutors would be running around trying to find one that would work for more than 5 minutes. It was a waste of time and especially money because I barely learned anything while I was there. more
