“Jim was by FAR the best tutor I have ever had! He helped me gain confidence in my test-taking abilities and taught me critical strategies that improved my overall score. Whenever I had any questions outside of our meetings, he was extremely responsive v.i.a email. I HIGHLY recommend Jim to any other high school students who are pursuing extra help with the SAT/ACT Thanks Jim!!!!!!”

“Very disappointed. Fortunately I got this for free otherwise I would’ve been very angry that I paid $295. I reached out numerous times your helpdesk trying to get help with what was included to become very generic answers. Each time they gave me a generic answer I would respond trying to get more information. I called both of the telephone numbers listed on your website. One time I spoke with a woman whose daughter was in the hospital and she couldn’t talk which I completely understand however she referred me back to the helpdesk which was no help. I am very thankful I did not spend any money on this but very disappointed I spent so much time trying to navigate through your website and determine what was included.”

Hi Tracey, We're sorry to hear that you are disappointed with your Rapid Prep experience. Our Help Desk received both of your messages, and although you did respond to our first message to you, we never heard back from you after your second attempt to contact us. We did the best we could to explain the value of the $249 program -- 4 hours of live small group classes, an on-demand video library, a digital testing strategies workbook, and a discount on one-on-one tutoring -- each of which becomes immediately available to you once you enroll in the course and login to the site. According to our records, your enrollment was processed, including the coupon code that waived the entire fee for the course, but your account was never activated and you never logged in. As we attempted to explain through our Support Chat, had you returned to the site and logged in, all those resources would've been immediately available. We're sorry to see that you never did so, and wish that we'd been offered the opportunity to guide you through that process. That said, your enrollment in the class is good through September, so if you change your mind and decide to give it another shot, please do let us know so that we can further assist you.

“Son loved his tutor! I Donely was he graded his job, but he offered him a lot of very helpful advice and encouragement. I would gladly sign him up again if needed”

“Classes moderately helpful but primarily driven by the school teacher and not Inspirtca staff. Private tutoring a total waste of money.”

(Bryn Mawr / Wayne) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Even after more than three decades in the test prep business, we’re still learning, and feedback from students and parents is a huge part of that process. We're glad to hear that your class went well, but sorry to learn that you were unhappy with your experience with your tutor, and wish that we'd had the opportunity to address your concerns while working with you and your family. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“I don't know what we would have done without Inspirica. We were so fortunate to have Alex Whalen when he was still doing direct tutoring. He can relate to students in a way that keeps the sessions fun and interactive. He provided structure. Most of all, he provided encouragement and support. Thank you! Thank you!”

No Stephanie, thank YOU for allowing me the privilege of working with both your kids. They're both amazing humans, and I cannot wait to see the contributions they make to the world!

“Hi, my son loved working with Donald. Donald is an amazing tutor and was always ready to help! Whenever I had questions, Donald responded me right away with thorough answers. If I know of anybody looking for a test prep, I will recommend Donald and Inspirica for sure. Thank you!”

(New York) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Donald truly is one of the best around, and we're thrilled to hear that you agree. Thanks for trusting us and him with this part of your son's education, and we wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“My son used Inspirica to help him prepare for his LSAT exam. His tutor definitely gave him the necessary tools he needed to master this difficult exam. As a parent, I would receive updates, on my son’s progress, which made me understand where my son’s weaknesses and strengths were, and what they were going to proceed going forward.”

(Bryn Mawr / Wayne) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. We work hard to keep open and honest lines of communication during our work with students, and we're glad to hear that the updates your son's tutor provided along the way kept you well informed. The LSAT is a beast of a test, and were thrilled to hear that your son left his work with us having mastered it. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors, and should you ever need our help again, you know where to find us!

“Heading into tutoring, we didn't really know as parents what to expect. Tutoring wasn't something we did as kids, but at some point along the way it seems to have become the norm? Well, let's just say after this experience that my husband and I both wish that we'd had tutors like the ones Inspirica sent out way. Absolutely amazing, and we cannot recommend them highly enough!”

(New York) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience, and we're thrilled to hear that you're so happy with the results. We regret that we weren't able to connect back when you and your husband we're in school, but if our team ever does manage to finish that time machine its been working on, we'll make sure to look you up!

“Thank you so much for the incredible support given to my daughter for her ISEE (Upper level) tests. Her tutor Yuliya Aleksandrov was very sweet and helpful. She did an excellent job helping my daughter prepare for the test. The overall experience with Inspirica was absolutely wonderful.”

(Newton Centre / Wellesley) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. We love Yuliya around here and think she's the best, and we're thrilled to hear that you agree. Prepping for the ISEE can be a challenge for some kids, so our tutors work hard to make a personal connection with each of the students with whom they have the privilege of working. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors, and should you ever need our help again, we'll be here for you!

“The individual tutors were very good and Inspirica handled a last minute tutor switch very well. However, when I requested some late summer review (I emailed in early July for late August), I was assured it could be scheduled and I should set up office practice tests. The website was not working, and I could not reach anyone by phone. I heard nothing for several weeks, but I was contacted by a new person and told that the Newton office had closed (although I had scheduled two practices tests there). Then, eventually I was told that no tutors were available due to high demand. I understand the demand, but 8 weeks in advance should have been enough time to schedule 2-3 review sessions and, at the very least, I should have been notified that the Newton Centre office was closing. It was very sloppy and unfortunately, I was not able to get my daughter tutoring with another group so late in the game. Going forward, I would not plan to use Inspirica again.”

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Even after more than three decades in the test prep business, we’re still learning, and feedback from students and parents is a huge part of that process. We’re sorry to hear that the results of the program weren’t what you hoped for, and that you had difficulty with our site. This past fall was admittedly a time of transition for us, as we were moving out of a location in Newton that had been our home for more than a decade and into a new custom-built space in Wellesely. That process proved far more complex than we had anticipated, but that's no excuse for the problems you faced, and we clearly dropped the ball. We're truly sorry, and should you ever choose to work with us again, we promise that it will never happen again. Either way, we wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“Inspirica provides excellent test prep for my students and helped them achieve scores that qualified them to gain admission to the top schools in the country.”

(New York) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience working with Inspirica. We're thrilled that your kids were have been able to attend the such great schools, and wish them all the best as they work their way towards graduation and beyond.

“We are not using Inspirica any more for my children’s tutoring. Did not feel there is personal attention anymore and that the administration was located to far away. Tutors where fine”

(Newton Centre / Wellesley) - Posted 4 years ago

Lisa, thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. We’re sorry to hear that the results of the program weren’t what you hoped for, and that you felt we were difficult to reach. We strive to make a personal and lasting connection with each student with whom we have the privilege to work, but we clearly failed to do so here. Even after more than three decades in the test prep business, we still make mistakes, and for that we are deeply sorry. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“Our daughter worked with a tutor for just a few weeks and had an increase in her scores. If we had more time we might have selected a tutor more similar to her learning style. But we would use the service again for sure.”

We're thrilled to hear your daughter's scores moved in the few weeks we had the privilege of working with her, and we promise that should you choose to work with us again, we'll make certain to find the tutor who most perfectly fits her learning style. Thanks for trusting us with this part of her education, and should you ever need our help again, we'll be here for you!

“We had a fantastic experience with Inspirica. Our son’s tutor, Julie, was the perfect match for him and his specific test prep needs. She truly customized his prep plan and the results reflected that conscientious approach and attention to the details. Additionally, the materials and tools for him to study on his own further bolstered his prep, skills, and confidence. The only negative I can offer is the price point seems exorbitant. I appreciate why the services are priced where they are. And, yes — we were willing to pay up for the excellent Inspirica result. But to be so much more expensive than the other (albeit lesser) test prep services was a slightly bitter pill to swallow.”

(Newton Centre / Wellesley) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience, and to let us know how much you liked working with Julie. Providing high-quality one-on-one tutoring services isn't easy, and that's why our prices tend to be more than those of our competitors. We know that limits the number of students we can help, so we've worked hard over the past year to find ways to reduce costs without sacrificing quality, the results of which can be seen in our new tutoring center in Wellesley and in the array of much lower cost small-group classes we offer online. Should you ever choose to work with us again, we're confident that you'll be able to do so at the same level of quality but at a lower price. Either way, thanks for trusting us with this part of your son's education, and we wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“Not worth the expense. They do not adequately tailor classes to the individual needs of the student.”

(Bryn Mawr / Wayne) - Posted 4 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Even after more than three decades in the test prep business, we’re still learning, and feedback from students and parents is a huge part of that process. We’re sorry to hear that the results of the program weren’t what you hoped for. At least as far as we can see in our records, the prep for the test was going well prior to test day, with the tutor structuring sessions and homework assignments around the results of the practice tests taken along the way. We understand that it’s very disappointing when test scores don’t reflect the improvement a student has made over the course of the program, and when the results came in, we would have loved the opportunity to try to make it right. Your review will help us improve our 1-on-1 programs and refine our customer service as we continue to strive to be the best at what we do. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.

“My daughter met with a wonderful counselor. After we scheduled your appointments we found out that the woman we had met with had left and everything went downhill from there. My daughter specifically needed math help and she was assigned a tutor with a degree in English.”

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Even after more than three decades in the test prep business, we’re still learning, and feedback from students and parents is a huge part of that process. We’re sorry to hear that the results of the program weren’t what you hoped for, and we know it’s very disappointing when test scores don’t reflect the improvement a student has made over the course of the program. Worse, because our counselors and tutors strive to make a personal and lasting connection with each family, we know it can be disruptive when one of them leaves. In this case, the counselor left Inspirica to pursue another opportunity, but that's no excuse for our having left you in the lurch. For that we sincerely apologize. Your review will help us improve our 1-on-1 programs and refine our customer service as we continue to strive to be the best at what we do. We wish you and your family the best of luck with all your future testing and academic endeavors.
