★★★☆☆ I initially gave this tutoring service five stars because they matched my daughter with an incredible tutor. Her teaching style was excellent, she explained concepts in a way my daughter understood, and they developed a great connection. Unfortunately, the reliability issues that followed have led me to lower my rating to three stars. Shortly after my original review, the tutor informed me she would be unavailable for two weeks, which I completely understood. We arranged for a replacement for one of those weeks, and that session went well. However, when I reached out to confirm the original tutor’s return, she informed me at the last minute that she would no longer be available and that I should find a replacement. I then arranged for the substitute tutor to continue working with my daughter. We agreed on a day and time, and the tutor confirmed the appointment. When no one arrived, I texted about ten minutes after the scheduled start time to ask for an ETA. My daughter had an important exam the following day. The tutor responded that they had forgotten about the session because they were doing something else. Having a confirmed session forgotten, especially right before an important exam, was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. While we experienced excellent teaching initially, dependable support is just as important. These experiences left me questioning how the service evaluates tutor reliability and holds tutors accountable. Based on our experience, I would encourage families considering this service to ask how missed sessions and tutor replacements are handled. in addition to question the reliability of the tutors that are placed.

Hello My Name Is Samia, My tutor gave up on me unexpectedly because I clearly wasn't focusing, and plus it is so expensive the billing fee every Wednesday was around 69$ it was so much money, because my family has a lot of bills to pay, my family couldn't keep up with the fees we were supposed to pay to keep the tutoring in sessions. My mom called Grade Potential and tried to tell them that she could not pay the fee for the tutoring session and they told her its okay and they totally understand. My parents were also mad because I made the tutor leave, and started yelling, and arguing with me. We were starting to do grade potential in early December, because I had failed my STAAR EOC Interims, We did it for Algebra homework and I was starting to understand the material a bit better but it was very hard for me to retain the information being processed or learning how to do the steps for each equation. I am very horrible at math and at retaining information, and managing things like focusing, paying attention can be very challenging at time, I have been on a IEP/504 plan since I was in kindergarten and I have struggled with math and retaining information, and if we added a new subject other than math like if we did math and English both together it would charge me more money rather than just the 69$ for the session. And if it were three subjects it would be 100$ and 100$ every week is a ripoff just to get better at math. I really love Grade Potential, it is good and it helps your child succeed, but sometimes it can be way too much money for some people, I would call them back and hire a new tutor but the money would be way too much to continue with Grade Potential, the sad part about all of this is that they don't give refunds after you're done with grade potential this feels like a total scam, most tutors I find on the internet and expect me to pay money are mostly scammers trying to take your money but after I received a tutor arriving to my house and my family paying them money this is legitimate company. The tutor didn't stay for the full 2 hours that we paid for, but the tutor left after only 1 hour, 40 minutes, cutting the session short by 20 minutes. When we asked her to stay after she left and finish the scheduled time, she refused and left anyway. Unprofessional and not worth the money. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!!!!!
