GBA lifetime of benefits gained The executive function coaching that both our sons received from Beyond BookSmart literally changed their lives for the better. Not only did the coaching help them navigate academic and organizational challenges during their middle/high school years, it supported them in college and helped to develop skill sets for the working world and in life overall! We can't say enough about the team and the caring approach that benefited our sons. The investment in executive function coaching with BBS was invaluable. Years later, we still see it paying off, and the team is still just a phone call away if we ever need it.

GBMy coaching coordinator was kind, empathetic, and was a good listener My coaching coordinator was patient, kind, and responsive to my needs. Laura listened, summarized and made sure I was on board which what she understood my needs were. She had experience in listening and assisting one who was still unclear about the assistance he was seeking. I would recommend her to others.

GBMy son is an especially difficult case My son is an especially difficult case. Marjorie is very dedicated and has persevered keeping the long term goals in mind. She created a rapport that allows him to open up to her more than he has to anyone else. She genuinely cares.

GBMy Granddaughter Loved Her Coach My granddaughter loved her coach and learned so much from her and, in the beginning, we saw really nice improvement. She learned lots of strategies to get started with her homework and school projects; since she was a procrastinator, this was extremely valuable. Along with the other Executive Function strategies, she was doing her homework in a timely fashion and managing her time much better. Then Covid came, school fell apart because vitual learning happened so poorly and she stopped applying what she learned. The coach always stayed connected with us by sending information on what they had worked on and what was expected from my granddaughter. She also texted my granddaughter weekly to check that she was following through. We really couldn't ask for more.

GBIt's Been A Good Piece of A Complicated Story Our YA child has been working with a wonderful coach for several years. They have established a valuable, trusting relationship, that has really helped our child articulate and face numerous challenges. As a parent, I have appreciated the candor and clarity of the subsequent reports. Often they have provided me with an opportunity to explore certain questions with my child in a way that is direct but not adversarial.
