Laura has over three decades experience helping students develop the fundamental skills for learning - reading comprehension, written expression, critical thinking, executive function, and strategic study.
Sometimes learners of all ages need a partner to help them navigate the challenges of academic life. While many students seem to move seamlessly from class to class and grade to grade, others encounter more roadblocks along the way. Maybe they work really hard, but never seem to see the payoff for all their time and energy. Maybe they have trouble even starting on their work and keep falling further and further behind. Perhaps the added pressure of preparing for college entrance tests and applications is taking a toll. Maybe they used to get great grades, but as they have advanced in school their reading, writing, and study skills are no longer getting the positive results they are used to. For some, their neurodivergent processing isn’t a great fit for their academic setting.
For these students, school can become an ordeal they must endure every day and a heartbreak for concerned parents and teachers. Having a professional partner with over three decades experience to help them cultivate the learning skills they need to face these challenges can make all the difference in the life of a student and a family.
“I wanted to write you a note to thank you for all of your help throughout my high school experience. I am so grateful for all the writing and study skills you taught me. Currently, I am putting them to use studying informational law after graduating early from college.”
“From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all you did with our son this summer. He actually told us ‘I don’t think I could have done this without her.’”
“Laura, you are our hero!”
“Thank you so much for all you have done for our son, and thus for our family.”
“You really helped me find out that I can do well in anything.”
“I think back to the end of our daughter’s freshman year in high school when we were told by her LD coordinator that she would probably not be able to get an Advanced degree and go on to college…. Not only did she receive her Advanced degree she was on the Dean's List her last two years of high school. We still cannot thank you enough for not only the study skills you helped her build, but the self confidence you gave her that she could do it. And she did it, didn't she!”
