A Remarkable Transformation with TCS
—Anthony, TCS Parent
“Since starting at TCS, our son has transformed from an average student into an independent, confident learner. He now wakes up on his own, attends all his classes without reminders, and eagerly shares what he has learned. The one-on-one education at TCS has greatly improved his self-esteem, allowing him to ask questions and engage in learning like never before. His grades have improved significantly, but more importantly, he enjoys school and puts in the effort. TCS has exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it.”
Customized Learning That Keeps Students Engaged
—Jacob, TCS Parent
“After returning to the U.S. from the UK, we struggled to find a school that could challenge Jaxon at his level. The local schools didn’t offer the advanced coursework he needed, and even an alternative school wasn’t quite enough. Then we found The Compass School. With one-on-one instruction, his teachers could see exactly where he was and push him to keep progressing. It’s been an incredible experience—he’s engaged, focused, and most importantly, he loves school!”
Personalized Support for Unique Learning Needs
—David, TCS Parent
“The Compass School provided exactly what we were looking for—certified teachers who truly listen and tailor the learning experience to each child. My son, who has dyslexia, and my daughter, who struggles with ADHD, needed an environment where they could receive individualized support. The continuity of having some of the same teachers year after year has helped them grow tremendously.”
A School That Feels Like a True Community
—Monica, TCS Parent
“The Compass School was the perfect match for us. My son had been attending another private school with a one-on-one model, but it became too expensive, and his morale started to drop. Since joining Compass, his confidence has skyrocketed—he’s happy, excelling, and even chose Japanese as his elective, which was such an exciting surprise! The communication with the school is incredible; I hear back immediately, unlike our previous experiences. It doesn’t just feel like a school—it feels like a community that truly supports our family.”
