I came here for SHSAT Prep, and Im taking it this month. Chang has really helped me. (Most) teachers are nice and really give a lot of feedback. The homework is rigorous but all beneficial. The space is somewhat limited, water is provided, and the rooms are decorated. I might be coming back for SAT...
Although the staffs look young but they are very experienced in helping their students grow academically. Especially Leona and Lilibeth, they are very knowledgeable of the current education system and its criterias. The center personalizes your childrens learning experience that enables them to excel in their area of interest. This place is highly recommended.
This place makes sure that they meet every students needs. The teachers and tutors provide children with individual attention to ensure improvement of their scholastic performance. Not only do they care about academics but also the overall safety and well-being of their students. Really recommend this place!
I went here for prep for the SHSAT and tge teachers here really helped me out. The program is really good and the Math and English teachers helped me get into Staten Island Tech. I really think that iI couldnt have done it without their help.I really recommend this program to whoever wants prep for the SHSAT.
This center provides quite an abundant amount of resources that are necessary to help students improve academically. There are enough rooms provided in order to provide small classrooms to further increase interaction between teacher and students. Also, the directors of the center also care for every student individually and provides help if necessary.
This place fosters a horrible learning environment. Kids are packed into a small small room. They are given water out of mini dixi cups as if they are in jail! The owners are overly frugal. They dont even provide a child with a piece of construction paper. Half the teachers do not even have a license. This place puts on a good facade but parents beware!
I learned in Chang learning, I improved my SHSAT scores and English abilities. I have read in excellent tutoring, I have increased my score for my special high school exam and my English ability. Yo he estudiado en Chang learning, he improvisado mi notas de SHSAT y habilidades para hablar inglés.

2020-08-26Our child had a great experience at Chang Learning Center this summer. My daughter found the teacher very engaging and has learned a lot. She even told me that she misses the class, especially the teacher. I also like that we were able to meet the teacher during PTC and receive feedback on our childs progress. The staff was wonderful as well. They were quick to respond to any questions that I may have. After this summer, Im confident that my child will be ready for the upcoming school year.

2021-04-19My daughter has been going to Chang Learning Center since middle school (Christa McAuliffe). She had a couple of math tutors (all were great). In preparation for a test, her scores always went up after having a session. She was enrolled in the SHSAT prep course and with their help was able to get into Staten Island Tech (her first choice). She has had private tutoring sessions throughout her HS years and was enrolled in their SAT Prep course as well. Unfortunately, because of the horrible timing of this pandemic, she wasnt able to take an SAT in time for college applications BUT just got accepted into Barnard College (Columbia University)! Leona, Lilibeth and all of the tutors throughout the years - you guys have been instrumental in Mayas success in school! Thank you so much for everything! As a parent, I can say with full confidence Chang Learning Center helped soooo much!!!

2021-08-27I attend this place for SAT prep (virtual), and believe me when I say it sucks. There’s always a problem with the math homework (it’s either there’s incorrect coding or the problems are worded incorrectly and poorly) and it takes forever to go over the homework, we literally never have time to go over class work and finish before end time. ELA class was not that bad but also took forever to explain a certain problem and (most of the time) class ends without me learning anything and I have to do homework. There’re also glitches in the homework and incorrect answer keys. Also, I basically never get emails about things I’m supposed to get, I literally have to like keep reminding them that I never received one I order for them to send me something. If I were to go back to the day where I was choosing whether or not to go, I would definitely say no. One last thing, I don’t know if this was on purpose or anything but the last SAT practice test I took was basically homework form a previous week. My SAT practice scores basically never passed 1330 (with the exception of the last one I took, which I got a 1420, but that was basically me putting down homework answers that I remember). I would highly not recommend for parents to put there high schoolers in here for SAT or any type of prep (unless your kids are in elementary or middle school (middle school excluding 8th graders planning on taking the SHSAT)).

2019-02-06The staff and tutors are wonderful. Both my children are performing wonderfully thanks in large part to their experience at Chang. The owners are not afraid to give you their opinion and let you know where your child needs help and where they dont so you save a few dollars and not waste time. Their prices are reasonable. The environment is nurturing. They try to truly know your kids and can see right through their excuses. The owners and teachers get the job done.

2017-04-29Our family has had a great experience with Chang Learning Center. In particular, the program has done a fantastic job in improving our sons math skills and improving his confidence in his own math skills. The curriculum and the teachers seem appropriately rigorous and are clearly on point for preparing for the SHSAT and state tests. The directors clearly care about the success of their students. When weve had to miss sessions, they pull together the classwork and homework and otherwise keep tabs on how individual students are progressing. We highly recommend the weekend SHSAT prep and the state test school break bootcamps.

2020-08-18Both of my boys did the Chang learning during the 2020 summer of Covid. I was surprised at how easily they adapted to the program and how much they actually enjoyed it. It was a wonderful feeling to hear the kids talk about their class and the teachers with respect during the course. After meeting their teachers during the PTC, I could understand why. Chang learning choose great educators that were completely relatable to the the kids. After doing the 7 week summer program I know my kids will be better prepared for the upcoming school year/remote learning. Thank you Chang learning for wonderful educational experience.

2017-07-30Chang Learning Center is a wonderful academic enrichment center that is family – run. Leona, Lilibeth and all the teachers here truly care about the well-being of their students and strive to help them excel academically. They provide a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for children to learn and grow. Leona and Lilibeth are welcoming, personable, and know their students on a first name basis. My brother and I attended Chang Learning Center for SHSAT prep and various other courses a few years ago and found that the courses were extremely helpful and taught by knowledgeable teachers. I am currently a college student and recently visited Changs during my summer break and Leona and Lilibeth still remember me! I highly recommend the services that Chang Learning Center provides!

2016-10-15Changs is the best! My kids had been going here since kindergarten. Its a great family run after school, weekend and test prep program. Lilibeth and her sister is awesome, both Columbia University graduate with great staffs working for them. Friend of my kids come from South America with no English back ground. Lilibeth and her tutor did a one on one with both of the kids for one school year, now both of them are doing well in PS229 with no problem.

2017-01-27First off, Changs is a lovely local family-run tutoring center. If youre looking for a place that goes above and beyond in providing children with personal growth and academic excellence, this place is it!Leona and Lilibeth are both very welcoming, super passionate and they really help make things easier. From explaining parents role in childrens learning to things like the common core; you automatically know theyre very knowledgeable and really gives you a good grasp in what to do for your child.I personally think their (many) services is worth every dollar. This place is like a central hub of academic assistance for the community/families.Highly Recommend!

2015-09-29I have attended this learning center for a variety of classes including SHSAT and SAT prep. With the help of the teachers and directors, I have recently graduated Staten Island Technical High School and been accepted to the Hunter College Honors Program. The small class size really helped me connect with my teachers and focused on what I needed to improve on. I would recommend any students who are determined to improve academically to come to this place!
