FAQs

At what age can my student start attending?

We work with students aged four and up who are able to focus for 10-15 minutes.

How many times a week will my student come to the center and for how long is each visit?

Most students attend twice a week for center visits and complete Gideon assignments at home the other days. However, you can come once a week or request extra classes for an additional fee.
Each center visit is typically 30 minutes per subject to do individual daily assignments, complete any old corrections, and review new material. A Gideon instructor will be at the table with the students to assist as needed. Most students will be seated with a 3:1 student to teacher ratio.

What level of work will my student be doing?

During the free placement evaluation, we will find a ‘just right’ point in the Gideon curriculum based on what skills your student shows as mastered in order to fill any holes and gaps in his foundation. Read more about the importance of mastering lower levels HERE. Download a full curriculum listing HERE.
Our goal is to build confidence through mastery with progress right from the start to encourage focus and concentration.

Does Gideon work with students with learning differences such as dyslexia?

Yes, the Gideon program works well for most students, including those with learning differences. While school must continue on its schedule, we have the luxury of time to allow the student to set the pace and do any extra practice needed to truly master each level. If your student has dyslexia, read THIS to find out why Gideon is a good solution.

Does Gideon work with students with special needs such as autism?

Yes, the Gideon program works with many special needs students. We can evaluate further if Gideon is a good fit when we meet your student during the free placement evaluation.

How do we get the MOST out of Gideon?

Simply doing the daily work consistently will result in great progress, but review these tips for parents HERE.

My children attend Gideon Frisco, and I am delighted to share my positive experience. All of my kids have made significant progress in English and Math since joining. Ms. Aarti's dedication is remarkable. She ensures each child receives personalized attention and closely monitors their progress. This individualized approach, coupled with the low instructor-to-student ratio, has been instrumental in my children's academic growth.If you're looking for a supportive environment where your child can excel academically, I highly recommend Gideon Frisco, particularly when Ms. Marian and Ms. Aarti are at the helm.

Aravinda D.

My daughter has been going to Gideon Frisco for a couple of years now for Math and English and we really love the progress and results. The teachers are very knowledgeable and make learning fun and engaging. The courses are structured in a way that helps children understand the concepts easily. I highly recommend Gideon Frisco to any parent looking to give their child a solid foundation in these essential subjects.

Rita M.

Gideon has been great for my child. I have noticed a huge change in her confidence level and enthusiasm for math. I would highly recommend Gideon to any child who may need that extra boost of confidence.

Our son Tatum has been attending Gideon at this location for almost a yr. now! He just started Kindergarten and we’re already noticing how advanced he is in his class. He tends to be very shy in new environments - Gideon has instilled so much confidence in his abilities to read, write and understand math.His brother (who is in 2nd grade) has made HUGE improvements at school since starting Gideon. He's much more confident in his ability to read.The owner (Aarti Dewan) is very involved and cares about each student’s progress. The teachers are kind and challenge both our boys. Consistency is key!Nothing is worse than seeing your child struggle in school. We are grateful to have found a facility that provides the personalized attention our boys needed. It is most definitely worth the investment.

We' ve had an awesome experience and the confidence and improvements our girls have made are great!My oldest also really enjoys their Staar Test Workshop as well!!!Thanks soooo much Aarti and Staff!!❤️

My sons have been going to Gideon Frisco for more than an year and we really love the style of teaching at Gideon. I must say that the Gideon staff is very good and especially Ms Aarti, who is the director @Gideon, is an amazing tutor for my boys! I must say my boys thrive in their math, reading and writing skills because of Gideon and because of Ms Aarti's efforts. She is very patient with kids and she pays utmost attention to the unique needs of each kid. The part I like the most is that instead of sticking to the grade level, Ms Aarti assesses the acquired skills periodically and adjusts her teaching content accordingly which means kids might also get the opportunity to start working on higher grade contents if they are ready. My kids are already ahead compared to their grade level because of Gideon. I will recommend it to anyone who want their kids to have a strong foundation in math, reading, and writing.

My daughter improved in math and reading a lot

Laurie R.

Aarti and the staff at Gideon are fantastic! My husband and I are so impressed that she knows each of her students well. She knows their strengths and weaknesses and she genuinely wants her students to master the skills before “moving on” to the next book. She tailors lessons to each of the students needs at their own pace. When they excel in an area, they are quickly given more challenging work. If they are struggling with a concept, she works with them until they understand it. We love that Aarti has children of her own, and that she is flexible with scheduling when it comes to summer camps and sports.

Shareen G.

Gideon Frisco has by far exceeded our Expectations! Our daughter is doing so much better with both math and reading.. the teachers are very good and they provide a very friendly environment for the kids. The business owner Aarti is very much invested on the progress the kids make and in ensuring parents receive updates and information needed to support their children. We love it here!

Nilesh B.

We have been going to Gideon @Frisco, TX for little over an year for our 10 year old son.He has improved immensely on his Math and Reading skills.The teachers and director Ms. Aarti are very focused on child’s skill development form a long term college prep perspective. The curriculum align with Texas school, so the child is never struggling in school to catch up.The worksheets for all days of the week, keep my son busy and in a structure if schedule even over the holidays.My 5-star recommendation to anyone willing to spend a few extra hours a week on child basic learning skills.

durga devi Y.

My kid had improved a lot with writing, reading and math, after 3 months of Gideon. I like their feedback every week after weekly test.

Ena S.

I can see a lot of improvement in my son’s reading and math skills.. he is performing better than before for sure. I do appreciate all the help and support from the teachers.

Amari D.

One thing that Gideon offered me that not a lot of other places did was the ability to cater towards my learning style. This has mostly to with how the owner Mrs.Aarti runs the center caring equally for her students that attend for educational growth in addition to her employees that undoubtably take from her and her uncanny ability to develop a child’s heart and center it around learning. In addition I came as a student about to graduate 👨🏾‍🎓 highschool in my senior year. Gedion was able to make a potentially oversized student feel welcome and able to be educated in a comfortable family oriented education and growth driven environment.I can’t thank Mrs.Aarti enough and the rest of her staff for how they were able to help me at my age then, bridge a gap that had not been for a long time, in such a short amount of time.Thank you 🙏🏾 Gedion, thank you Mrs.Aarti and your amazing team! 💜

Kirti M.

My little one has improved a lot after started going here. Her learning abilities have increased since she joined.

Janaki D.

This is an excellent tutoring location! Ms Aarti and her staff are very professional, attentive and friendly. They put in a lot of effort in teaching the kids and my little one improved her math and reading dramatically with just a couple of classes. I would highly recommend this location!

Shayan I.

Our daughter has been attending Gideon since Aug 2018. They have been working with her on math and reading and we are very pleased with how much she has advanced in both subjects.

Chandana R.

My child has been enrolled at Gideon Frisco for past 18 months. I have seen great improvement with his reading and math skills. The ratios are low and teachers take their time to help each student. As parents, we receive feedback after each class and also regular conferences to monitor the progress.

Ankit B

My kids have been attending Gideon frisco location for 3.5 years now. Aarti is a good teacher and is always willing to answer questions regarding their development.

tony G.

Our son started Gideon midway through the school year. We came to Gideon because my son was struggling with math. At first he was very resistant and did not want to do it. He kept asking why he could not just get a tutor. I kept telling him a tutor will not help you get faster at answering math questions and help you prepare for the Staar test. After one week my son loved going to Gideon and still does. He takes it as a challenge to do well on the weekly test. We were so impressed with Gideon and Ms. Aarti that we put our other son in Gideon to keep his math skills up to speed. Ms. Aarti and her staff make the kids feel comfortable an encourage them to do well. We have continued Gideon over the summer and I'm confident they are prepared for the upcoming school year.

Rajesh K.

We enrolled our 4th grader last year at Gideon and have seen major improvements in her math skills. Her STAAR test scores prove the advancement made last year. Aarti and her staff are great to work with. They are always there to help out kids and provide regular feedback to parents.

We started Gideon for my son. He was just starting 5th grade and we wanted him to be able to test out of 6th grade math by exam. The Gideon program not only helped him pass the test but also gave him a head start on his 7th grade math class. In Gideon, he had already covered a lot of the material he now has in 7th grade math so he is having no trouble keeping up, despite having skipped a year.My 3rd grader has also been doing Gideon for the past year, both math and reading. I think it is definitely helping her with the little details that she doesn't always absorb in school as well as with her math facts.I think this program is great both for kids that want to get ahead and for those that need some help catching up!

Isa B.

We have been going to Gideon close to a year now. My main reason for getting supplemental math and reading help for my 10 and 7 year old is that me and my husband are not very effective teachers or tutors and we know that. Gideon has helped keep study times at home peaceful because the kids are not struggling with math and reading concepts. Gideon follows a focused program that helps kids with the foundations for math and reading that they usually breeze through in school. Over the past months, both kids have improved in school and has boosted their confidence as a result. Ms. Arati, the owner makes an effort to tailor the program to the child. Her entire staff is wonderful with kids. My kids are quick to complain if they are not comfortable in a place but they are always happy to go to Gideon. If my 14 year-old was not already so busy, she would also be going here too just to keep on top of her math.

Hetsi J.

It's been about 5 months since my daughter started going to Gideon. I can see a huge growth in her math as well as reading skills. I really appreciate Ms.Aarti and her team for building my child's confidence. She loves going to Gideon. I highly recommend this place.

Parul P.

We had a great experience with Gideon classes for my daughter! She caught up on reading within a month's time and is one of the best readers in her class in School.She is currently only taking math lessons in Gideon,and am truly appreciative of the staff and Mrs. Aarti for being patient teachers and flexible enough to work with us and our schedules.Great and fun learning environment for kids !

Sridevi C.

My daughter started at Gideon 6 mos ago and I am so happy with her overall progress. In her preschool, she really didn't learn much. But within 6 mos, she can read all the step 1 reading books, learnt how to form sentences, and her math skills have improved so much. She's doing really great in Kindergarten compared to all other students. I love the overall structure, curriculum, and material offered at Gideon. I specially like the Preston center run by Arti since she's always on the floor answering questions or any concerns that we have. Love all the staff too. My daughter is very comfortable working with them and the staff really encourages her.Thanks a Bunch!!

Beth I.

My daughter had just turned 4 when she started attending this particular Gideon location last year. I wanted to know how long it will take before she is able to read and write. That was 8 months ago and a lot has happened since then. My daughter has within this short time frame grown into a confident little girl who can read well and write with confidence. The program outline is simply phenomenal and the teachers are seriously dedicated and vested in the children. The owner of this Gideon is an amazingly dedicated educator who genuinely cares about her pupils. I have witnessed her outstanding tutoring skills with her style of teaching, interaction with students, patience and dedication even where the child is developmentally challenged.Keep up the good work Arti. We appreciate your hard work and dedication.

Sachin M.

Our 6 year old has been going to this Gideon center for last 8 months. During these 8 months we have seen great progress in her Maths and Reading skills. This Gideon center is run very professionally and uses all appropriate Gideon learning materials. Our daughter used to go to another Gideon center in Frisco which used non-Gideon materials, which we were not happy about. But at this center, the director is personally involved and is always available at the center. The student to teacher ratio is also very good and the teachers are very friendly. There are times when the kids take more than 45 min allocated time, but the teachers are patient and help the kids finish their entire work section - even if it means spending more than allocated 45 min.Thank you Gideon and the wonderful staff at this center.

I used to attend Kumon, and I previously worked at another tutoring center; however, in comparison to the tow, Gideon has proved to be different than the other two centers. While Kumon and other tutoring centers attempt to teach students the material they are learning in school, which is beneficial short term, Gideon is providing its students a fundamental foundation in math and reading that will help them both in the short and long term in school. By working at Gideon, I have seen many improvements in many of the students. Initially, as most students are, they will struggle and move slowly, I know I did when I had trouble in school, but as Gideon builds upon their mastery in a topic, the work gets done quickly and is thoroughly done with detail and the students actually understand what they are learning. If any parent wants their student to catch up in school, or get ahead, Gideon is a wonderful place to take them because the students actually enjoy their time there as well. The students have the chance to work all the instructors, which exposes them to the fact that every teacher has a different method, but it truly depends on the student how they decide how to utilize the information the instructor provides them.

Anit L.

My son has been going to Gideon for the past 3 months and there is already a noticeable improvement in his mental math abilities which his teacher as well as the parents of other kids in his class have commented on while playing math related games. Gideon ensures that kids get regular practice during the week which gives them the confidence to solve problems.

Arun A.

My 4 year old daughter has been going to the Gideon in Central Frisco ever since it opened and we are very happy with the progress made by her. Classes are twice a week and I’m pleasantly surprised that she looks forward to go there every time! She used to go to a different Gideon and we noticed a few things which set this place apart from the previous one:- The quality and timeliness of the feedback we received on the progress of our daughter personally by Ms. Aarthi, the owner and a teacher herself, was invaluable. She’s on the floor every day personally supervising all the students and tutors. I think her experience as a teacher for public and private schools for many years factors into this aspect.- The student to tutor ratio is 3:1 or less which is a step up from the previous place and the student area is quite spacious as well.- My daughter loves the small rewards she gets for passing tests and the effort she puts in which is positive reinforcement and quite motivating for her.- The tutors seem to be quite competent and friendly. My daughter loves working with them on her lessons every time.I believe this place is well organized and well run by a motivated owner and staff. Highly recommended!
