My process
I operationalize a student-centered approach (identifying strengths and promoting self-initiation) to tackle key elements of the college process. I assist them with exploring interests, balancing college lists, crafting personal statements, sprucing up activity lists, brainstorming and editing supplemental essays, and reviewing all other application materials. I believe differentiation across all realms of learning is vital to student success. Simply put, what works for one student may not work for another. I also have experience working with students seeking robust academic, social, and emotional support at the college level. With a broad database and personal knowledge of comprehensive learning support programs, I can support students with IEPs as they search and evaluate college-level programming. I design organizational tools that simplify aspects of the college process for students' individual needs. Therefore, a specialty of mine is providing built-in executive functioning support related to goal setting, strategizing, time management, organization, decision-making, problem-solving, and distress management.
