Testimonials
From the dad of a college-planning student who lives on
the west coast of Florida:
Judi,
I just want to drop a note for Barry. He has been a tremendous
help to Sweta on her college applications. No matter when
we call him, including evenings, late at night, or weekends,
he has been responsive and extremely helpful in guiding Sweta’s
application essays. On many occasions he has reviewed material
on the very same day (within hours!) and provided Sweta his
superb feedback. We are also impressed by his skill in understanding
the complex subject matters she writes about as well as suggesting
necessary changes.
From a parent considering a therapeutic placement for his
daughter:
You are a passionate professional, and we appreciate your
efforts while we try to come to grips with what appears to
be the inevitable.
Regards CB
From a parent who lives in the Middle East:
Thank you Thank you Thank you Judi! I thought I wasn't going
to get anyone at the school this early in the morning, and
my son was waiting at the gate in London to leave for Chicago.
He's already been traveling for hours. I don't like this
time difference thing at all LOL!! Thank you again for everything!
You are the most reliable person I have ever met!
From local college-planning parents:
Dear Judi,
Bob and
I could not be more pleased with the results you achieved
for Sari. We came to you during the most stressful time in
Sari’s life where it was necessary for her to really
give her all — and before she started with you, her
confidence was down and she was in shut-down mode. You obviously
turned her around and now she is well on her way in life
to the college of her choice. We cannot thank you enough.
Because
of you, Sari’s brother Max is looking at two
alternate research projects for this summer. One is Shoal's,
sponsored by Cornell, to which he has already been accepted,
and another is Stars, from St. Louis University. Max will
tell you about them at your next meeting together. This would
not have happened without you. In addition, because of your
positive, gentle nudging, he tried out for that special jazz
band group at school and was selected as the solo trumpet
player. He would never have undertaken any of these activities
based on our recommendation; they were only possible because
of you!
From a Miami mom of a college-planning student:
I want to personally thank all of you. Please tell Judi how much we
have appreciated all of the assistance that AJ and I received. All of
you have made our life MUCH easier – especially with all his college
acceptances so far! Thanks again. We wish all of you a very happy holiday
season and a healthy and happy New Year. I will keep you guys informed
as to the remaining applications.
From parents whose son went to an emotional-growth boarding
school:
Dear Judi,
At Thanksgiving, I just wanted to say "Thank You" for
all you did to help us and Josh to get to the point where
he is. He is now in upper school at Carlbrook and loving
every minute of it. His grades are As and Bs with an occasional
high C, now and then. He busts his ass to try to make honor
roll, as part of an agreement Grant made with him. He actually
prioritizes to get his work done on time! He is enjoyable
to talk to and has just started on weekly phone calls. He
is a new person and has actually said he's proud of himself,
for the first time in his life.
On this Thanksgiving my family
has so much to be Thankful for. Josh being at Carlbrook and
accepting Carlbrook is number one!
You deserve the best for
all that you do for families like mine. Thank you!
With eternal love and gratification,
Nancy
From the mom of a student planning to go to boarding-school
after completing a therapeutic boarding school program:
I am waiting to speak to Jason tonight. If he has truly
made his decision about which boarding school to attend after
you were able to present us with so many wonderful options
for him, then I am very happy. His main goal was to be close
to his family (aunts, uncles, cousins) who all live 45 minutes
from Cheshire Academy. Ahh! I can breathe!
Judi, thank u so
much again for all of this- I truly know I have not been
your easiest client, but I have truly been your happiest
thru the last 1½ years! — And
believe me, I know how hard you have worked on Jason’s
behalf.
I can promise you, I will be a lot easier for the
college search!
YOU’RE
THE BEST!
Gratefully,
Marlene
From a local college planning parent:
By the way, speaking of relaxing, that is why Jordan is
coming to you next. Your services offer so much peace
of mind, and for this we will always be grateful.

From the Weiss School:
Dear Judi,
We want to thank you for your excellent presentation to
all our parents last night. We had great feedback from the
audience. The information and insight you imparted about
study skills and helping younger children position themselves
for success in life was invaluable to all of our parents
and teachers. Please keep us apprised of new developments.
