We will be forever grateful to Roni LaBarbera at The Learning Curve. She was able to help our high school son pull up his math grade from a 30 to a B during one semester. During her one-on-one tutoring sessions with him, Roni identified a learning issue and encouraged us to have him tested. This testing lead to a diagnosis and treatment that has helped him be successful in math class and all other subjects. Roni truly wants her students to be the best they can be!

Roni and her team at The Learning Curve are amazing. She does a great job assessing a child's needs and learning style and matches them up with the right tutor. The Learning Curve was instrumental in our oldest son earning a full tuition scholarship to Alabama, and for our second son improving from 21 to 26 on the English portions of his ACT. We'll be back with our third son too! I highly recommend The Learning Curve.

The Learning Curve took the stress out of the college application process for our family. Their experienced tutors worked with my children to assess their individual needs and develop test-taking strategies to maximize their scores on the SAT and ACT. I highly recommend The Learning Curve to give your kids the skills and the confidence to succeed on those all-important college admission tests.

My favorite daughter, Julia, has had the opportunity to work with Roni LaBarbera and her staff on a weekly basis for the past six months. During that time, she’s practiced test taking strategies and reviewed the necessary curriculum. This has been accomplished in a caring and supportive environment. We were elated with the serial results of these endeavors; specifically, an increase in Julia’s composite ACT score of four points.

Great experience with Roni & her staff for my daughter prepping for the ACT. She walked away with confidence that is honestly immeasurable & worth the money spent to improve not only this but her test score. In this area, there’s no better place I’ve found than the Learning Curve! Thank you, Roni, for making it an easier process than I imagined.

Roni and her team did a great job helping my son prepare for his SAT. The way they relate to teenagers and seem to draw the best out of them is to be commended and my son's SAT score reflected that! I highly recommend using The Learning Curve's services.

My sister and I first started working with Roni at the age of 15. My sister was struggling in math, and I wanted to get a jumpstart on SAT prep. From that statement alone, it was obvious to Roni how different we were. I needed no-nonsense straight up facts, while my sister needed to be coaxed and entertained into learning. Somehow Roni was able to provide us with exactly what each of us needed to succeed.
Meeting Roni was a pivotal point in both my sister and my academic and personal lives. She taught my sister the freedom and opportunity that came with education, and she taught me to use academic excellence not as an end game, but as a stepping-stone to become an independent, confident woman who is able to give back to her community.
We worked with Roni for three years, resulting in my acceptances to Emory University, Wake Forest University, and UNC Chapel, and my sister's acceptance to Highpoint University. In two short months, I will be graduating from Physician Assistant school and will begin my career as a Neonatal Physician Assistant, fulfilling my goal of having a career while giving back to my community, something that Roni taught me.

Very impressed with the knowledge and communication offered. My son had 5 or 6 Skype tutoring sessions- hoping to up his ACT score....to everyone's surprise he jumped from a respectable 28 to a 31. Fantastic job to all. Thank you, Roni and Megan :)
