"Wonderful experience with Total Learning Center.  My son has a form of dyslexia and we were concerned with him doing well on the SAT's Evidence based-reading and writing portion.  After following the instruction, and pointers provided by JT, [the director] at Total Learning Centers, my son's reading & writing SAT score improved by 90 points!  He has since been accepted into his choice college!"
