What Parents are Saying
Educational Edge came into our family’s life through an Instagram post shared by a friend, and reaching out to them turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve made for our child. She went from crying and believing she couldn’t write to earning an “A” in her classes.
The tutor Educational Edge matched us with is knowledgeable, kind, and wonderfully creative in the way she supports my child. My child’s face truly lights up when she walks through the door.
It’s immediately clear that this company is the owner, Erica Ritterman’s, passion—not just a job. From the way she speaks with parents when you call, to how deeply she listens to what makes each child unique, to the thoughtful care she takes in selecting the right tutors, everything reflects her genuine commitment. I can’t say enough positive things about Educational Edge and the incredible people who work there.
-Jill F., Parent of 6th Grader
We have been working with Educational Edge for over three years, and the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. The ELA tutor (Alex) they matched with my son has been an invaluable part of his academic growth and confidence.
From the very beginning, she took the time to truly understand his unique learning style. Over the years, she has helped him strengthen his thought process, develop his own voice, and become a much more independent writer. The progress we’ve seen has been remarkable.
One of the things we appreciate most is her flexibility. She regularly adjusts her schedule to meet with my son when he has assignments due so they can review them together. And on days when he doesn’t have specific homework, she always comes prepared with thoughtful and engaging work to keep him progressing.
What sets her apart, though, is the genuine interest she takes in him as a person. She asks about what’s going on in his life—whether it’s our home renovations, family trips, or assignments he’s already turned in—and uses those conversations to support his learning and build trust. She makes him feel proud of the work they accomplish together, and because of this, he looks forward to their sessions every week.
Finding someone who can connect with a child academically and personally is rare. We are so grateful for her dedication, patience, and the positive impact she’s had on our son. I wholeheartedly recommend this tutoring company to any family looking for meaningful, long-term support.
-Dea R., Parent of 8th Grader
When our 2nd grader began struggling with math at the start of the school year, homework quickly turned into a nightly battle filled with tears and frustration. As parents, we also felt stuck trying to help because the new math curriculum is so different from how we learned. I reached out to Erica at Educational Edge and immediately felt reassured. She asked thoughtful questions, understood our situation right away, and within days matched us with a tutor who was the perfect fit for our son.
It has been a complete game changer. His tutor, Claudia, connected with him instantly, breaking down concepts in a way that finally made sense while also making math fun. Homework went from a power struggle to something he approaches like a puzzle he wants to solve. His comprehension and confidence have improved tremendously, he’s now excelling in math. She has also begun working with him on reading, and his skills there have skyrocketed as well. Claudia is kind, patient, and so easy to communicate with. We are so grateful to Erica and the Educational Edge team.
If your child needs academic support (and honestly, if you as a parent need guidance navigating today’s curriculum), I cannot recommend Educational Edge highly enough!
