              We reached out a few weeks ago to get a tudor for our niece. They were glad to take our payment and we were promised a tudor would reach out to us. They've deducted two payments from us but we still haven't heard from a tudor. It's too little too late, our niece has a test tomorrow and we needed a tudor. Can't chance her future on this. Please refund...

              Our math tutor for Trigonometry has been great! He explains things clearly & can explain things from different angles to make sure my daughter understands the concept. We made contact early & have already had two sessions with another one in the books. We are greatly impressed with our tutor & our overall experience with Grade Potential!!! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a tutor or even someone to help solidify concepts within a subject!! - H******
