My 12 year old son has worked with Christin for a few months,  and we've seen great improvement in…read morehis reading. My son has always struggled with reading and writing,  in spite of the best efforts of teachers and his IEP program at school.  We finally decided to get extra help and connected with Christin.   She was very helpful in answering all of our  questions and was great to work with. My son also seemed to enjoy working with Christin as she seemed to connect with him in ways that helped him have fun while learning. I would highly recommend her services!

I needed someone to proofread my Statement Of Purpose for graduate school admission. Since I hadn't…read morewritten an essay in probably 10 years, I'd asked few friends to provide feedback before I reached out to Christin. Despite our best efforts Christin was still able to identify a few grammatical errors, instances of passive voice, as well as confusing tenses in the same paragraph. In addition to her technical acumen, Christin is a really sweet person. She was patient and read through multiple revisions. Her criticisms were so gentle that I didn't even mind them and I'm usually a sensitive person. I was really impressed with how subtle her suggestions were, yet they made a huge difference in how readable my statement was. I'm really glad for her help and would recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their writing.

There is no other service like what Hopkins offers. Our 9 year old son struggles with ADHD,…read moredyslexia and depression. The mindfulness strategies provided by his tutor Cynthia (Northern Colorado) have been absolutely critical in changing his narrative about himself as a person and a student. Our son was in play therapy for two years. He has had 12 sessions with Cynthia, and has made more tangible progress in those 12 sessions than he ever did in play therapy. Cory and Liz have found their niche.

Our 5 and 7 year old have been working with Liz and Corey for about 8 months, and we are amazed by…read moretheir progress. Both boys are on the ASD spectrum, and have been working on focus, anxiety, academics, and fine motor skills. There has been tangible improvement in all areas- both boys use mindfulness strategies at home, school, and in social situations. The mindfulness curriculum resonates and stays with them, and simple phrases and strategies help them cope with challenging situations. Math used to be almost impossible, and is now our 7 year old's best subject, and we are tackling reading next. Their handwriting is also much improved! The boys look forward to tutoring every week! I can't say enough great things about Corey and Liz!

Nita June is amazing! She was instrumental in helping both of our very different sons get into the…read moreperfect schools for each of them. Her balance of structure, communication, and energy made each process as stress-free as possible and with material personal attention and progress throughout. When I refer to stress-free, I'm talking for both my sons and my wife and me! Nita is caring and skilled, and she brought out the best in both of our kids. Her encouragement in the writing process for the many essays at many schools led to more creative and insightful narratives. She's a chameleon for different types of students. Our oldest had more of a sense of where he wanted to go and what he wanted to study but wasn't naturally self-driven to get the work done. So for him, Nita masterfully broke down the assignments to make them achievable, and he never complained about having work to do (still trying to figure out this particular magic myself!). He's now a rising Senior at the University of Washington and love it. Our other son is more self-driven to get work done but had very little sense for what he wanted in a school. Nita supported his research on so many different academic, social, and other fronts to first illuminate questions he should ask on college visits and then narrow down his list based on the information he acquired. Now, he's about to enter his Freshman year at Dartmouth College and is so excited! Throughout the process, Nita was supportive and encouraging yet firm. Outside of my wife and me, she was our boys' biggest cheerleader, celebrating all of their successes as enthusiastically as we did. I highly recommend Nita for anyone who is looking for a truly gifted college counselor.
