I knew Jennifer from tutoring where we worked on ACT prep.  My score increased from 25 to 32, which helped me receive a scholarship.  I reached out to her again for help on my essays.  Everything I tried to write was boring and felt like I was bragging.  I had no challenge, hardship, or inspiring event to write about.  We ended up writing about my grandparents’ ranch and how I would wake up to my grandmother’s cooking.  Jennifer taught me how to show a different side of myself that I would not have been able to do on my own.

Jennifer is very efficient in working step by step to accomplish the goals you set together. She was very friendly when we met one on one. She helped me narrow down my interest in a major for college. Jennifer helped coordinate job shadowing opportunities within the community. She made spreadsheets for college options and financial details. I went from undecided in my future plans to more confident in what I was doing in the future.

I never really liked school, but I’ve always loved computers, gaming, and programming. Jennifer helped me find a college that was specific to my interests. She helped me arrange meetings and helped with financial aid questions. Ever since I’ve known Jennifer, she has understood that I struggle with school due to learning disabilities. Her understanding has played a huge part in my success. She’s pretty cool.

We knew that the college application process was time consuming and that we needed to start early.  However, every time we tried to begin as a family, there were so many other things happening.  Trying to add more to our hectic family schedule was not working.  We loved working with Jennifer because she mapped out the process.  She helped our daughter make choices that suited her.  She took the time to get to know her first.  This proved invaluable in assisting her with targeting schools that were “good fits”, as well as understanding what criteria would be important in each application.  Going through the process, we realized how much of a disadvantage there is when relying solely on the high school guidance counselor.  There is so much to know and so many moving parts!  Jennifer’s attention to detail and guidance were invaluable.  We are not quite finished with the process, and we all look forward to our daughter’s final decision.
