Through my experience working with these students I have come to appreciate their cognitive development differences and repetitive nature.

Jeannette is doing a great job with our daughter, Caleigh. She, Cal, looks forward to seeing her and Jeannette is building a rapport with her that provides Caleigh with confidence in addition to her support with her studies. Caleigh likes knowing she has her to ask questions and be somewhat more independent from her parents in studying. Thank you!
