Everyone has been incredibly responsible and helpful and we would highly recommend their services to anyone who needs a little extra help in preparing for the college search.

From my first inquiry call, I was so impressed at their understanding, thoughtfulness, and seemingly sincere desire to help! We were matched with a wonderful coach who immediately synced with my child and has done an amazing job connecting with him and keeping him engaged. Her tips, tricks, and advice have certainly helped. We've signed up for more sessions!

Response from the owner: Thank you for sharing your experience, D.P.! We're glad you felt supported from the start, and it's great to hear that your son has connected well with his coach. We're excited to continue working with your child and look forward to seeing his continued progress!

We have been working with Kristin Olsen Landis who is absolutely superb. I am helping someone whose parents are immigrants who know absolutely nothing about american colleges and who gets little if any help at school. Kristin is changing her life: no exaggeration. She is incredibly knowledgeable - both on the schools and everything connected with them and on how to take a student through the process.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much, Jessica, for sharing your wonderful experience with Kristin! Her dedication and expertise truly shine through in her work, and it is heartwarming to know that she is making such a significant impact in the life of the student you're helping. Your feedback reaffirms our commitment to helping every student achieve their higher education dreams through our college consulting program.

My daughter had a very positive experience doing ACT prep with her tutor from Educational Connections! The prep helped her achieve the improved score she was hoping for! The match with her tutor, Neha, was excellent! My daughter enjoyed working with Neha!

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words, Lauren! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter had a positive experience with her ACT prep and that Neha was a great match for her. Congratulations to your daughter on her achievement, and thank you for choosing Educational Connections!
