About Us

Our Team

Berktree Learning Center began in 2006, as an in-home or library based tutoring service. Originally known as Berkman Education Services, we provided in-home one-on-one tutoring services, SAT/ACT preparation courses and independent study. In 2012, we changed our name to Berktree Learning Center and opened our office in Aliso Viejo, offering the full array of one-on-one and group tutoring services still available today. In 2017, we relocated to our new larger facility in Aliso Viejo.
