Student testimonial

"I think they tutor well because they know what the student perspective is like."

Johann Velasco

ACT: 24 → 30 UC Davis

"Coming to Launch is alot different than your average tutoring experience. I wanted my youngest son to take the SAT like his older sister did, but apparently through the diagnostic Stephen recommended us to switch to the ACT. He ended up scoring a 30! Really happy for him and thankful for Stephen and everyone at Launch. I think they tutor well because they know what the student perspective is like. I will be recommending them any chance I get for sure."

"Had my little sister do AP Calc AB and AP Chem. She not only got higher scores and felt more confident answering questions, she learned the skill of learning — and is applying it to other subjects."

"We were given a flyer at my sister's softball game last year. She's been coming to Launch since for AP Bio and psych, says nothing but good things. Usually I was the one to tutor her since I'm older but AP classes are way beyond my limit."

Student testimonial

"She tells me her pre-calculus anxiety disappeared."

Kate Perez

GPA: 3.5 → 3.8 Georgia Tech

"The tutoring experiences my daughter Jamie had were all pretty much the same until we found Launch. They'd mainly focus on homework help and catching up your child to the bare minimum instead of teaching them how to be independent students. Since we made the switch last semester, she tells me her pre-calculus anxiety disappeared, especially now when they're learning the toughest material. I would (and have already) recommend to parents and students alike."

"Everyone here is super friendly, I only came for help with my AP Chem class sophomore year but turned out I needed them for APUSH and Physics for junior year. Derek is probably the best tutor I've had, I got a 5, 5, and 4 on all three of those exams because of him!"

"I wanted to leave a review about my experience with Derek, he is amazing with Algebra. My daughter has been coming since January and she's already seen her grade shoot up to an A!!! He communicates with me regularly about her progress and even let me take a look at her diagnostic reports. 5/5 stars from us, a gem of the valley :)"
