“When our son was formally diagnosed with ADHD in 6th grade, teachers had been quick to suggest medication, but no one until Apple has given me an understanding of how my son processes information, what his strengths are, and where his deficits lie.
Apple not only identified what she believes are the impediments to his flourishing, but also a framework for improving his thought processes. In implementing her plan, we’ve found Apple to be an outstanding one-on-one educator, even virtually. ”
“We consulted with Apple about whether to start homeschooling our son. She listened to all of the factors we were weighing and reflected them back to us in a way that helped us see the situation with new clarity and perspective.
The consultation was a turning point that allowed us to make the decision that was right for our family. We left feeling confident about our next steps, and we continue to be grateful for the guidance Apple provided.”
