“I just really appreciate how much you saw me and understood me as a person. You were able to bring out my best essay writing so that the colleges could see me too. I liked meeting online, because we could both edit the document. You created homework for me to complete in between our sessions, which forced me to get more specific, and have more clarity in my writing. The process was very well paced, and I got in everywhere I applied. I loved working with you!” - Tallulah, Mills College

Not only did Eve help her prepare for tests, but she's no longer in tears. That alone is the best part.” - Lisa, Public Relations Executive

“My child doesn't have an instruction booklet. Thank you for taking the time to get to know my son, rather than using a formula in working with him. I'm happy to find someone like you who understands that differences make the world go around. You gave him the tools he needed to develop a stronger work ethic, and then stepped back so he could motivate himself.” - Carolyn, Healthcare Industry
“Eve Chosak has worked with our children for over four years as a tutor, academic coach, and mentor. We began a serious look into academic tutoring when one of our children was diagnosed with learning challenges; mainly attention deficit disorder related to math, writing, reading, and retention. This was uncovered by a neuropsychologist, who conducted a comprehensive evaluation and candidly disclosed that a supportive academic tutoring professional would be needed in order to ensure continued success with academics. Eve has served that role above and beyond our expectations and I would recommend her services.” - Greg, Financial Services, President
“Eve helped me get better grades in every subject and learn better ways of studying. I have A’s and B’s now instead of C’s. The best part was getting my homework and book reports done early.” - Rachel, age 10
"I wanted to express my appreciation. I am certain that your direction and voice made a difference for our son, probably even more than he realizes. Thanks again!" - Richard, Parent
“Thanks, Eve! Our child has really been benefitting from working with you!” - Jennifer, Controller
"This has worked out really well for us. Besides the good grades and being more organized, it's so nice to remove myself from the grind because our son doesn't push back with you. He is accountable to you. It just works more smoothly. When you only have your kid for a couple more years, a better relationship really matters. The sessions were productive and the time management was helpful. Working ahead was really great." - Jane, Parent
"I just want to say first and foremost, thank you! Our son hasn't been this engaged or receptive to academic coaching and working in between sessions, since middle school, when he had the opportunity to work with his instructional support teacher from his elementary school days, as his tutor. So whatever and however you are engaging him - it is working. Second, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your detailed and thoughtful notes. They are incredibly helpful!"
- Lisa, Relationship Administration Manager, Vice President, Bank of America

“I hadn't written an essay in twenty-five years, and I was feeling overwhelmed. Eve was extremely sensitive and supportive in helping me organize my thoughts and feel more confident.” - Erin, Returning Student and Parent
“You have an ability to understand my son's thinking process and be flexible with the way his brain works. You were able to fill in the gaps with systems he needed to put into place to be successful. Prior to your coaching, my son struggled. He had three majors, random professional paths, and failing college grades. You asked very directive questions to help him arrive at what he wanted to do. Within a short period of time, he got clear on what he wanted to professionalize and what he wanted to keep as a hobby. You gave my son concrete, actionable items dealing with academics, professional development, and time management, A year later, he's working, doing well in college, planning for his doctorate, and making financial plans to fund his entire education.” - Kyle, Parent.
“I'm grateful to have you on our son's team! Your approach has been very effective both tangibly and intangibly. Not only have his grades improved, but he's also much less stressed about his school work.” - Mark, Software Developer
