Reviews
Char leverages her years of experience as an educator and her warm approach to encourage my special needs son to understand what his needs are academically, how to self-advocate, and how to plan his work. With her regular, detailed reports I have a clear sense of where he is and where he needs to focus. Char is a lifesaver during this pandemic world of remote learning. What I appreciate the most is that she's not only supporting him but teaching him how to be independent.
