"[My son] really struggled with 10th grade and was pessimistic about his ability to succeed with a challenging case load. His coach did not give up and really helped him push through resistance to attending tutoring, trying new study habits, and speaking with teachers. It's still tough but I see him making progress and the accountability with his coach helps me to sleep easy at night."
“We love [our son's coach] and she has been amazing when it comes to helping him build a homework and study routine. This week, [he] had three big tests. Together, they came up with a study ahead plan for the weekend and nights prior to each exam. It was SO helpful to have that daily checklist when he sat down to study. I love that she sends me a copy, too. With two tests today, [he] was still excited about going to school!"
"After my daughter's diagnosis of dyslexia in 5th grade and 2 years of OG tutoring, we realized she needed more academic support in all academic areas. For the past 3 years, she has steadily grown in time management, study skills, teacher communication, and CONFIDENCE!!! She enjoys school and feels good about herself (and our relationship has improved significantly)."
"Caroline and her team of academic coaches are absolutely amazing. My daughter thrived academically in school with Megan Buck's expertise on how to support a young woman who has ADD and dyscalculia.
You will be 100% happy with Empower Academic Coaching. They are simply the best!"
"They have helped our high achieving high school students learn essential organizational skills like time management for balancing a rigorous course load and demanding extracurriculars, and how to work smarter, not just harder. They've been a great sounding board for our students during stressful times and have been flexible in the services they've provided, always meeting our students' needs."
"[Caroline] was incredibly responsive and supportive of my son during the college application process. She was able to pull out his best writing and highlight that he had more than he thought in terms of involvement and experiences. He applied to 17 schools and was admitted to 16 of them. In addition, he received about $80,000 in academic scholarships. He's now in college at his top choice school and on the Dean's list."
"Working with Empower Academic Coaching has been a fantastic experience for my child. We have have been a client with them for six years and I have seen tremendous growth in my child. Her coach is terrific and has been a great support for my child as she navigates high school."
"Empower Academic Coaching has been transformative for our daughter! Caroline has drastically improved my daughter's overall academic confidence by strengthening her organizational skills and study habits, which has resulted in her feeling less overwhelmed and more in control of her academic life. Can’t recommend Caroline highly enough, she has been a lifesaver!"
"I have been with Empower for five years, my senior year of high school all the way to my senior year of college. [Caroline] has been an incredibly valuable resource for me through my educational career. I've been able to learn how to establish routines, make a schedule (and stick to it!), and have learned ways to study that work for me. I could not recommend Empower Academic Coaching more!"
"It has been so nice to have someone knowledgeable checking in with my children each week and helping them to get organized and plan for all of the assignments and activities on the horizon. While all of this has been very helpful, it also helps my husband's and my relationship with our teens because we are comfortable backing off a bit and trusting that they are getting their things done."
"My child's experience with Empower Academic Coaching was great. Jess was an incredible mentor that connected immediately with my student. She provided a blueprint for my child to follow and reinforced positive behaviors. During the two years of participating in the program, my child's confidence and ability to own their actions improved. The coaching skills Jess provided will be with my child for the rest of their life."
"Empower is truly committed to helping young people survive and thrive. Caroline provided calm and sage advice as we negotiated the challenges of an education system that does not easily accommodate young people who do not fit the standard mold. They provided tireless, flexible and enthusiastic support and advocacy for our teen daughter over the course of two years, truly "seeing" her spirit and talents."
"My daughter has been with Empower Academic Coaching for 5 years. They have grown with her to address her changing needs and my daughter feels so comfortable with her coach that there is never complaining that she has tutor that day. We have also done an ADHD class for parents that was very helpful."
"Like a lot of young adults entering higher education, my son struggled at the beginning of his college career. Coach Jess stepped in and completely turned him around. She helped him get on track and stay on track by giving him tools to help him manage his time and assignments He went from almost giving up to making Dean's List second semester while still enjoying his college experience."
"Our son always receives Caroline's full commitment, her respect and empathy as she teaches him about accountability and meeting her expectations. Thanks to Caroline, our son is successfully completing his assignments, is prepared for tests, and, also importantly, is learning about his strengths and weaknesses. She is extremely professional, sensitive, and caring. Working and interacting with Caroline is always a pleasure."
"As a student with autism and ADHD, Empower has helped me so much throughout my high school experience, and now with the process of submitting my college applications. I love my coach, and consider her to be someone I can truly count on whenever I need her. I’ve learned so much from my coach, such as how to build a good schedule, studying techniques, how to properly interview with a college, and so much more."
"Caroline is the best. She has been invaluable to my son in helping him navigate high school academics and now, currently, with the college application process. Not only has she been an outstanding (knowledgeable, dedicated, and compassionate) academic coach to Eli but also a tremendous support to me, as a parent. Having Caroline in Eli’s corner has afforded me a peace of mind I wouldn’t have otherwise had."
