TESTIMONIALS
"Ann has a gift for connecting with kids, inspiring them, and ultimately giving them the confidence and skills to succeed and reach their own personal best. She not only provides both our kids with the tools and motivation to flourish, but also provides us weekly feedback and guidance so that we can be more effective parents in supporting their academic success."

"Not only does my son seem vested in his sessions, he leaves more energized than when he went in. Ann’s skill and instinct allow her to build practical individualized weekly plans that focus not only on improving EF skills, but also on upping grades and making the work load more manageable vs. overwhelming. Achievement Academics’ approach to integrating goals with respect to skill building, grade improvement, and confidence building is the secret sauce."

"As a student with dyslexia taking upper level courses while playing a varsity sport, our son presents a number of challenges. Ann has taught him how to research, take notes, read for important information, study for tests and break bigger assignments down into smaller less daunting tasks. But most importantly, Ann has helped our son recognize his strengths and gain confidence as a student."

"Ann helped my daughter with the whole college application process, but was especially helpful with the writing of her essays. Ann did a beautiful job of being warm and approachable but also challenging and encouraging my daughter in her writing. Ann really softened the stress of the college application process for all of us - I could step out of the way, knowing she was counseling my daughter through."

"My entire writing process, from essay structure to revisions, was developed. Mrs. Fox made the writing process fun and enjoyable while helping me strengthen specific skills. From brainstorming to final drafts, every aspect of my writing process was enhanced during my lessons."

"My son was diagnosed with ADHD in 10th grade. He had always done well in school and was eager to learn, but by 10th grade he had become distracted, disorganized, anxious, and overwhelmed. Ann was able to assess his strengths and weaknesses and identify ways to prioritize the help that my son needed. Her positive attitude and approach allowed her to connect with my son immediately. He had to work hard, but he truly enjoyed his sessions with Ann, and he could immediately see the difference she made in terms of planning in his academic routine."

"Ann has worked with my daughter for the last two years, and the results have been amazing! Ann organized her with calendars and study habits so that her time studying is more efficient. As a parent, I always appreciate the weekly email communication with Ann to get an insight into my daughter's academics as well as social life and challenges. I trust Ann explicitly and so does my daughter, she is a truly talented and genuine human being and teacher."

"Ann worked with my daughter when she was a junior in high school to help her with several large projects, assignments, and the heavy workload of junior year. Ann was fantastic at helping her level-set herself so that she did not become overwhelmed or anxious due to the pressure and stress of junior year and the college search process."
