We chose to work with Tinnelle because of her deep understanding of working with Learning Disabilities and her outstanding credentials as an educational consultant. Working with Tinnelle has been an absolute game-changer for my nephew’s academic future.
Tinnelle’s personalized career coaching provided my nephew with clarity and confidence about potential career paths and helped him develop a realistic and inspiring plan for the future. She helped him select and apply to the best colleges based on his skills and interests.
Tinnelle took the time to understand his strengths, interests, and goals, and she offered valuable insights into post-secondary education and career opportunities. She also provided excellent guidance on building a strong resume, preparing for college applications, and even improving interview skills. Moreover, this has allowed his PSAT scores to jump 50 points and now he is a more confident learner.
