I believe part of the reason these services are the way they are is because the connects are in between lapse and "time off".. having parent support services didn't happen for me. Never a stable person. My husband and I got no help. If you want an effective team to help meet the family and child I would look elsewhere.

It's incredible and the staff are absolutely wonderful and they really care about the kids. The classes may be seven children in one class the whole school may have about 40 students Now this is the school that she goes to PathfiindersAcademy, and Union City. Absolutely amazing.. I really really appreciate them because my daughter was having a really really hard time with bullying getting her work done staying in class and not eloping and now she loves to go to school and always has positive things to say when she comes home. Altogether a wonderful agency.

I worked with Surina for a number of years. What started out as "presentation training" evolved…read moreinto so much more than that; I would call it "executive training." Surina took the time to get to know me and my teammates well. She was able to understand our individual perspectives and how they effected our development as executives. She was able to help us understand how our words, mannerisms and tone combine to create an image that supports or detracts the message we want to impart to our audience. She was well prepared with new insights in each session. She was honest and thorough with feedback. I feel that my time with Surina helped to significantly enhance my interactions with clients, boards of directors, teammates and direct reports. Working with Surina was a great benefit to my career development.

Because of Surina's various audiences, she brings more than one perspective to the table. This is…read morehelpful not just for interviews, but for client pitches, crisis management and the lot. I can't say enough good things about Surina. She runs a professional shop with institutional quality yet puts her personal attention and touch to it. Well done. I recommend Dynamically Speaking with zero hesitation.

I have been taking lessons with Alex for a year now. It's mostly on and off, mostly off due to my…read morescheduling. The reason why I reached out to Alex was that I haven't been using my writing skills for years because I was in sales and it requires little to no professional writing at all. In the beginning, the cost was a bit higher than I had expected. I never had to pay for a tutor, so I don't know what the average price was. Nonetheless, I still scheduled a meeting with Alex. I wanted to see if $$$$ means quicker results. I have noticed that my writing skills have improved over the year. He was able to point out the mistakes I been overlooking and help me catch these mistakes. He is very patient and is willing to work with my crazy schedule. I can't say that my writing skills were improved overnight. It did require that I also do homework, and my willingness to improve as well. The bottom line, could I write a novel without any mistakes? No. Could I write professionally with little to no mistake? Sure.

Due to COVID and transition, all our lessons happened on Zoom. I was a little bit suspicious at the beginning since I had another teacher before and it was a waste of time. But I still gave Alex a shot when we started and Alex's class turned out to be very effective even in Zoom, his notes and exercises are well prepared. I highly recommend Alex for someone who needs an accent reduction course!

While we talk every day, presenting to a group (be it a handful of people via Zoom or an in-person…read moregroup pre-COVID-19) is another skill set altogether. Julia has deep wisdom and knowledge on the topic/skill of public speaking. She knows how to help you structure your presentation to ensure the audience is able to follow what you're saying and that you have the impact you desire. Equally important, she will help you tune in to the subtle things you can do to connect with your audience. Are you speaking while looking like the proverbial deer in the headlights? What should you do with your hands (pre-COVID)? Are you remembering to smile? We all are familiar with the notion that a good portion of the population prefers death to public speaking. The good news here is that Julia, with her effervescent personality, warmth, and insight, will help you see that speaking up isn't so terrible after all. Like most things, it's a skill, it's learnable. I can't think of a better teacher.

I contacted Ben to help me level up my presentation skills for an important event I had coming up…read more He gave a straight forward, honest assessment of where I was at and how I could get to where I needed to be. I appreciated that he didn't try and sell me a ton of sessions I really didn't need. It was clear that he had my best interests in mind and gave me exactly the type of focused coaching I needed. Celebrating where I was strong and guiding me when I needed support. Ben is really friendly and easy to work with. His calm demeanor is really helpful when your trying to navigate your own doubts and fears. I am happy to say at arrived at my event and killed it!! Thank you Ben for being a big part of of that.

I couldn't agree more with Emily's 5-star reviews! She's knowledgeable, flexible, professional,…read moreand all around delightful to be with (which the kids love too). Most impressively, she thinks about your kid's development holistically - from hearing to eating, sleeping, learning, emotional/behavioral matters - all to understand the potential root causes of speech issues. She's essentially a one-stop-shop resource that provides you a comprehensive - yet targeted(!) - treatment plan...all in under 30 min/week! :) She quickly assessed that our 3-year old needed (i) a hearing test and (ii) to see an ENT for ear tube surgery, which leap-frogged his speech progress nearly overnight (seriously). Even post-surgery, she inquired about his sleep and eating - which we were having challenges with (but I didn't think were related!) - and she recommended a follow-up with our ENT to confirm if anything else is physically inhibiting him. Whether it's being flexible with last minute scheduling changes, providing me talking points so I can have richer conversations with my son's doctors, or recommending Daniel Tiger episodes to prepare my son for surgery - she's a TREMENDOUS resource and I feel so lucky we found her!

Name a more productive way to pass the time during a pandemic than to study for the PMP. Before I…read moretook CJ's Virtual PMP Master Class, I was having a difficult time grasping PMP concepts and process framework through self-study. His use of relatable analogies and engaging anecdotes activated parts of my brain that I feel helped convert concepts into my own logical ideas and practical experience, thus helping me to remember the content. If you've ever fallen asleep reading the PMBOK, then this course is for you - definitely 100% worth the investment!! I ended up being the only student in the course due to a group rescheduling and was given the option keep the course or roll into the next one. I decided to take the course and although I'm sure solo is a very different experience vs. group, feel very fortunate to have had this sort of "coaching" type experience. The statement on the course webpage "Guaranteed to run on dates listed" is 100% accurate. Case in point - CJ is a devoted Dodgers fan and instead of watching the world series live, opted to hold the session scheduled for that evening which speaks volumes about his dedication to his students' success and his profession! I didn't even know there was a baseball game on. I still can't believe I was able to memorize earned value management formulas in less than an hour. CJ shares tried and true best practices to help prepare for exam day as well as valuable test-taking approaches that I don't really see anywhere else. After each session I felt even more energized and motivated than the last. Thanks so much CJ!!

I cannot recommend the Institute of Urban Homesteading's Cheese Making Intensive enough…read more This day and a half "intensive" is a combination of the cheese making 1, 2 and 3 classes, taught by IUH founder Ruby. It's fast-paced and she throws a lot of information at you, but the whole process is warm, interactive and accessible. I immediately felt like I could leave Ruby's home and make these cheeses (and other dairy products!) we had learned in my own. I especially love that she's found what seems like the perfect middle ground between science lesson and home-cook/homesteader understanding. She brings her personal experience in with just enough of the science and technical understanding to make home cheese making incredible accessible and attainable. I also love that IUH also has a sliding scale for fees because it demonstrates the value they put on what they teach in making these classes more widely accessible. I already have the summer farm tours on my calendar, and I can't wait to take my next class.

I just tried again today using their "unsubscribe" link. What I got back was NOT a confirmation that I'd been unsubscribed. Rather, it was a detailed email from an unknown (to me) mail server company which wanted me to click on THEIR link to actually unsubscribe. I'm not about to click on an unknown link from an unknown sender. I think a direct request using the "Unsubscribe" link in an Urban Homestead email and sent from the very email address I want unsubscribed is absolutely sufficient. I do not recommend getting on their email list.
