Parent
Testimonials
| “Dr.
Jones is a bridge for parents to their children’s success as students
and a support to the family. She
gives me guidance on how to be more supportive of and productive with my
children and insights that have helped my relationship with both of them.
Meanwhile, she has sparked an interest in my 12-year-old son for
school and made him a more curious student.” |

“In
working with Dr. Jones, I learned why my child was having tantrums, which
used to make me feel that I had no control whatsoever.
I thought my son was simply behaving badly because he did not get
what he wanted. Now that I
know what to do, I feel as though I have the keys to a better life with my
child. Parenthood
is sometimes a list of "shoulds": you should put him to
bed at the right time, you should make sure he doesn’t eat too
much candy, you should not let him watch so much television, etc.
After Dr. Jones’ coaching, I feel that parenthood is something exciting
and inspiring...a job I really look forward to doing well.” |

| “The best part of what Dr. Jones teaches is that it can be applied to MANY things, not just the topic at hand. Dr. Jones is a phenomenal speaker. She is charismatic, energetic, and obviously loves what she does. She knows how to engage the audience, and there is never a dull moment! Her material is always relevant and typically includes things that moms can't find in a book.” |
| Laura D., small business owner, mother of a 2-year-old |
| “Dr.
Jones was described to me by another parent as ‘a brilliant person who
gets quickly to the heart of the problem and gets results in a short
period of time,’ and that is what I found to be true.
Dr. Jones saw my son’s true potential, nurtured him and built up
his self-esteem. She showed Joaquin how to structure his studies and motivated
him to adopt a healthier attitude towards school.
She taught Joaquin the pleasure of learning, and that stimulated
changes in him.” |
| Laura S., psychiatrist, mother of two children, ages 12 and 17 |
| “Dr.
Jones’ approach works well because she puts herself in the child’s
shoes and makes the experience intellectually stimulating from the
child’s point of view. The
after-effect is that my 3-year-old daughter becomes more responsive to
activities that I try at home. Dr.
Jones’ creativity and ability to engage children with everyday objects
are absolutely astonishing.” |
| Ellen B., medical doctor, mother of a 3-year-old |
| “Because
of Dr. Jones, my 12-year-old son, Sam, has a newfound interest and
maturity as a student. Dr. Jones was able to engage Sam and unearth
a student I did not know existed. Learning specialists concentrated
on Sam’s difficulties and used their findings to lower expectations.
Dr. Jones, on the contrary, removed the barrier completely.
I cannot think of a better person for my children to spend time
with.” |
