My two kids, 2nd and 4th graders, have excelled so much being in Gideon. They were already pretty good students, but the repetitive exercises that they do in Gideon has definitely helped boost their confidence. In fact, they both received straight A’s on their first report cards! The Gideon reading comprehension and math classes give them the foundation they need to thoroughly understand what they are learning in school. Fiona and the staff are very encouraging and recognize their milestones. Lots of prizes involved, which makes learning fun for the kids!

This location is well run: professional, prompt response to parent inquiries, and most importantly - the tutors balance nudging the children along to success while keeping the tone positive and encouraging!I had concerns that my children were behind in math because of the disruption in their education during COVID. I did not want the summer slump to further degrade their math skills. I discussed my concerns with Ms. Fiona (the owner and director) and we discussed what Gideon could do to help my children. In just a month, they have improved their mastery of math facts (addition, subtraction, multiplication - the ABCs of Math) and learned how to better tackle word problems. My children are less anxious when it comes to math homework and school assessments and my sons teacher at school told him that he has greatly improved on his multiplication. I look forward to my children getting a head start on the next grade curriculum this summer. Ms. Fiona sent her own children to Gideon when they were young and saw what tremendous success they had with the Gideon program. After just one month, I too am seeing the positive difference that Gideon makes!

My daughter started here at this Gideon 8 weeks ago. This is the best place ever! She has really gained confidence in herself. And her teacher gave me a great feedback and told me today that she noticed the marked improvement and her willingness to learn. As a parent, I definitely this tutoring center to others.

Money is definitely worth spent! This is really worth it for the parents. I have spent other places and found this Gideon to be most beneficial to my daughter. She was really struggling in school. I put her in here for 3 months. Her teachers are telling me that she is definitely moving forward in the right direction. I highly recommend this place. The teachers are awesome!

I am really happy that my son has joined this Gideon. He has improved so much and his confidence has increased. We moved here two years. Thank you, Ms Fiona, for helping us. I suggest not to ask for discount. When you see your child growing in confidence and succeeding, that makes the value of your money all worth it. I highly recommend this to my friends!

Very professional owner and excellent staff. Encouraging and positive environment. If you want your children to be confident and successful in two extremely important subjects as Reading and Mathematics you should enroll them in Gideon. They will succeed at their own pace with a great support and reward system based in short and long term goals. As a mother and teacher I really recommend this program because it is effective, the students will be assessed first to know in which area and level they will have to begin and very soon you can observe the progress and how fast they will move to a higher level. Thank God for this place!!! Gideon located at East Plano is an outstanding place!😊

So thankful we made the decision to put our daughter in 1x1 tutoring over the summer at Gideon. She had been a solid B student last year, but, lost her confidence. Fiona and her teachers were great to work with and really helped her develop independence and improved her skills. She started high school confident and has already been achieving all A’s on her math tests. This has been one the best decisions we made for our daughter and we will continue with the tutoring.

We have been part of Gideon for a year and have seen great progress with our kiddos. It absolutely helps them with self confidence and the one-on-one attention a child may miss getting in class due to the size of it. If your child doesn’t raise their hand in class to ask about not understanding something in math then they will more then likely start falling behind and miss on progress. Gideon helps catch them up and push further! MS

I am really with Fiona and her awesome teachers. Gideon in east Plano is run very smoothly and it’s environment is very conducive to a child’s learning. My son has been for 8 weeks. He was previously in Kumon for 6 months and got very frustrating with the lack of attention or interaction with the tutors there. His progress at Gideon has been dramatically improved. It is such a joy to see his confidence level raised up in such a short time. He looks forward to his classes at Gideon and loves his teachers here. At school, his teacher has noticed his progress and his new found confidence.I highly recommend the place and am spreading the word to my friends and family.

Our daughter was only 3 years old when we started Gideon back in 2017. And we were not sure what to expect, but in just few months we were amazed to see the transformation on how well she was doing and continue to progress. I have no doubt that in a few months or so she will be able to read. The teachers and Ms. Fiona has been instrumental in the process and with their help she is now more focused. We absolutely love our Gideon!

My daughter has been enrolled here for several months now, twice a week. Her growth in math, reading, and writing have improved dramatically. Her daily school teachers have commented on her advancement during her last review. Her confidence in taking on new challenges or speaking in class has improved to the point she wants to be the one with the answer each time. We interviewed many of the local centers that provide similar services to Gideon such as Kumon, Reading Ranch, Explorer Horizons, and Grade Power. While the other companies varied in their approach and were acceptable on many levels, we chose this place because of the staff, the progressive can do attitude and structure provided. My daughter looks forward to going here every time, so I know we have made the right choice and her grades reflect that.

My son is 5 years old and we started at Gideon when he was 4 years old. Many will say that we started very early but it has been well worth it. The staff is VERY patient and very kind. It has helped him learn to focus and he is disciplined with this work. He loves the teachers and loves learning both reading and math. Im not worried about school because I know Gideon is there as our support! Thank you to the team there...well worth every dollar!

We enrolled our daughter shortly after school started this year. We recently received her second-9-week progress report and she has had a marked improvement in her math. I believe her concentration and confidence, particularly in her math ability, has greatly increased due to Gideon. I feel Fiona and her staff are top notch and would highly recommend this facility!

Review №53

My son joined Gideon (Plano location) almost 3 yrs back in 1st grade after trying Kumon for a year & half. Both educational institutions have their speciality in teaching methods but we found course material & teachers @ Gideon made all the difference in motivating our child in learning in much friendlier env. Needless to say Ms Fiona & Mr Andy (in charge & owner) and her staff have put their sincere effort in helping our child to build strong foundation and confidence in both subjects & to be ahead of the game. During enrollment, she took special care in evaluating child’s level & ability to put the child into right starting line. Periodically conducts parent’s meet to discuss child’s progress (also when requested). Received honest feedback in areas of improvement based on child’s strength & weakness. Thanks to Ms Fiona for sharing valuable tips, advice & experiences in general. Wishing Ms Fiona & Mr Andy very best in keeping up the same level of excellent education service for years to come.

Review №73

For Chinese-speaking Chinese families, language barriers are a major obstacle to tutoring children. Generally, children from Chinese families have worse reading ability than children from American families. School teachers require elementary students to practice reading articles every day. As parents, we are helpless. This is a very headache for us. Fortunately, a friend introduced me to your daughters cram school for Gideon Math and Reading in Plano. They have high-quality and patient teachers, which gradually teach the children knowledge of different ages from the shallower to the deeper, and they also help to correct the school homework. After a period of study, now my daughter has a great Progress, here I am grateful to the teachers here for the loving and effective teaching of knowledge to the children.English is a big problem for Chinese parents like me. The lack of fluency in English causes my daughter to be behind her peers in both Math and Reading. I felt totally helpless in this situation. It was a big headache for me and my husband. I am so thankful to my friend who introduced me to Gideon Math and Reading in east Plano. Ms. Fiona and her teachers are very kind, patient and very knowledgeable. They provide high quality tutoring and assistance to my child in all the fundamentals in these two core subjects. Gradually, I see a tremendous steady progress in my daughters learning. I am so thankful to the kindness of the teachers here and find their teaching very beneficial. Thus I high recommend this place!
