Core Academics - Saratoga, California

I would highly recommend Mark for Core Academics if you need help on anything related to college essays or literature. Mark easily helped become a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Program with his help on SAT reading & writing, and he helped get into some top-tier schools when helping me write out my college essays.

My daughter took SAT and AP prep classes here and she is very happy with the results. Dr. Li is a great teacher and his classes helped her get great scores on the AP Calc exam and the SAT II Math II test. When my daughter felt that her high school's AP Bio lessons were not enough, Ms. Tat helped her prepare for the AP exam even during the unusual circumstances of social distancing. Her favorite classes were Mark's English classes because she saw great improvement in her essay writing skills and even achieved a 780 on the reading/writing portion of the SAT! Would 100% recommend for any student that is struggling with academics or standardized testing.

We highly recommend Core Academics for their excellency and effectiveness. Our child received very strong supports from Core Academics in the past 4 years since she entered the high school. She received very high quality services from them ranging from tutoring to college prep.

Their tutors are amazing, helping our child succeed in most challenging AP courses. For college prep and admission consulation, Sunny and her teams very professionally deployed a specially talored strategy for my child, which worked extremely well. As the resule, my child received many offers from top universities such as Carnegie Mellon as well as most of the UCs.

Thanks to Core Academics, my child is finally going to UC Berkeley. To be honest, without Core Academics, none of this could ever happen.

We very much appreciate what Core Academics teams have provided to our child for all these 4 years. And we strongly recommend all the services provided by Core Academics.

My daughter is a high school junior. She has been taking classes with Core Academics for about a year now, for SAT prep and help with some of her school AP classes.
I have been very impressed with their staff and tutors and highly recommend their services.
She has benefited greatly by working with Dr Li for SAT Math and AP Calculus B/C, Joy for AP-Chemistry, and Mark for SAT English.
Sunny and Debbie have been doing a great job in guiding us and constantly encouraging my daughter.
