“Our daughter graduated after an amazing senior year academically, athletically, and socially.  I credit Kirstin and her team for playing a part in this. In particular, Pravin, was a wonderful educator who worked with our daughter through a wide range of courses.

I just checked on my son’s SAT score. YAY! This is more in line with what we have seen in his past assessments.
He is so happy with his score. We appreciate Ben’s help in getting him to where we thought he should be.

In the end, I applied to 13 schools. I was accepted into all of the programs I applied to except one.
We looked at every school and after much consideration, I have accepted my placement at EMERSON for fall of ’22.
Thank you so much for all of the hours of assistance with my essays and guidance.  I could not have managed all of it without your help.

I wanted to let you know that our child received an acceptance letter to Heidelberg University where he will be playing lacrosse!!  We are super excited since that was the school we were counting on!!  I can not thank you enough for all your help with this process, Kirstin.  You made this stressful time feel easy for both of us.

Mimi, we celebrate the hard work our daughter put into working with you. I was blown away by her prep for the finals which she had a lot riding on. Thanks to your support and guidance, Mimi, her teacher’s comments were excellent.
