I am very happy a friend recommended Educational Connections. This was money well spent. In retrospect I think SAT prep we have done with another company was a waste of money. Best to invest into Educational Connections colleges applications counsellor. This will make a bigger difference than SAT score in my mind, especially because most schools don't require it. We worked with Kristin Landis and she is great. My daughter applied to 10 colleges in early October and by mid-October she already was already admitted into one of them. I am sure more to come.

Response from the owner: We're so glad to hear that Kristin and our team at Educational Connections have been a great help! It’s awesome to see your daughter already getting acceptances. We're excited to see where she decides to go! Thanks for taking the time to share about your experience with our college consulting program!

My son's Executive Function coach is incredible. My son is now working independently, keeping track of due dates, and working ahead. He is more diligent, more conscientious, and more motivated. His grades have improved across the board. No more scrambling and stress at the end of an academic quarter. He requires zero nagging about school work and as a result, our mother/son relationship has improved. It is a transformation and we are SO thankful. Worth every penny!!

Response from the owner: We're overjoyed to hear about the incredible transformation your son has undergone, Colleen! It's truly inspiring to see the positive impact of our coaching. We're so grateful for your kind words and for entrusting us with your son's EF skills development. We look forward to continuing to support him on his academic journey.
