Testimonials

“My 17-year old senior was spinning his wheels on college applications and needed some help. The one thing on which my son and I agreed was that working with a parent would have been stressful for all involved.

Thankfully, a friend recommended Jen, and what a lifesaver she was!  From the first moment, her upbeat and fun personality put my son at ease and inspired him to get his act together. In no time, she got him organized and on a schedule to meet the various deadlines. Her invaluable input on his essays really helped him express himself in a way that I don't think he ever learned in school.

Perhaps most important, Jen got to know my son personally and got him thinking more about what he wanted out  of his college experience, which ultimately influenced where he applied. I will always be thankful for Jen's help and will be using her services again for kid #2!”

    "Jennifer has been a friend and colleague for 18 years. We arrived at Redwood High School at the same time as Spanish teachers and collaborated daily to deliver to all of our students an engaging, challenging and fun language learning experience. She was a true partner and was both loved and respected by her students and colleagues for her energy, creativity and intellect.

     "I have equal respect for Jennifer as a parent and an advocate for public education. Jennifer has made substantive contributions to the San Rafael City Schools as an engaged parent, classroom volunteer and community organizer. She recognizes the diversity of SRCS as one of its many strengths, and she believes that equitable educational opportunities for all students benefit everyone. 

     "Jennifer continues to be a teacher at heart and a leader by nature. I hold very few people's integrity in higher regard than hers."

~ Eric S., Middle School Principal
