GBGreat Intake It was a very informative intake session. Lauren introduced us to the program and answered all our questions. She spoke to Bennett individually for 15 minutes and he is really on board and ready to get started. Looking forward to learning ways to help Bennett be more successful at home, at school, and in his extracurricular activities.

GBAppreciating BBS coaching We signed on for coaching from Beyond Book Smart this year for our daughter who is in 10th grade. She looks forward to her sessions, has a positive rapport with her coach, and appreciates the strategies she offers. Forearmed with these tools and mindsets, my daughter has decided to sign on for honors and AP courses next year. Junior year at high school is stressful enough, but the capacity to curb distractions and manage one's assignments and goals is a huge asset, well worth the price.

GBCoaches are Best-in-Class I've worked with 3 coaches and they've all been fantastic. BeyondBookSmart seems to hire only best-in-class professionals from therapists to executives. The WorkSpace is a perfect setting to hold myself accountable without needing to ask a colleague. It's reliable and private.

GBYes, try it. I have had two of my kids use Beyond Booksmart within the last few years. The staff and EF coaches are responsive and caring. BBS was an integral part of my daughter learning to work through her challenges. With her coach's perspective in the mix we were able to see the situation more broadly. My daughter changed from the prep school she was in to a voc tech. She is now a high school junior, an honors student, takes AP English and last summer did a two week precollege program at Harvard University. A long way from wondering if she was going to have to repeat eigth grade. My son is in college and was having executive functioning challenges. He's only been using the program for a few weeks, but seem to be getting something out of it as well. In his case he was not enthusiastic about his first match from our initial interview. BBS worked with us to find another match that he's much more responsive to.
