We offer a range of personalized services to guide students through the college planning, preparation, and placement process.
We meet in person, via Zoom/Skype, and phone. We offer packages as well as hourly services.
Consultation Services
The consultation service is the foundation for all of our packages. We develop a learning profile for each student based on an in-depth review of the student’s educational history. What are the student’s strengths and interests? How does the student learn best?
In TWO SESSIONS we provide:
● Comprehensive review of student’s learning history
● Assessments of learning style and college readiness
● Interview with student and family
● Explanation of learning support options at the college level
● Overview of the college planning process with customized advice
This service offers families practical, general guidance on how to proceed, but does not include a college list.
