We really appreciate the accuracy the Woodcock-Johnson IV test provides and the feedback as to how to continue our home schooling on each individual child. Renee had a great disposition and was very helpful. She was excellent, very kind to our kids, and she was great keeping them engaged and guiding them through the test! Her input was very helpful, clear and valuable. We definitively recommend her!

The Woodcock-Johnson IV test was convenient. Renee was polite, friendly and answered all of my questions. During testing she was very welcoming and at ease, allowing my girls to feel comfortable. When going over test scores she was clear and honest and shared her thoughts and insights that I found helpful in our educational goals.

Renee was FANTASTIC. My oldest has ADHD and my middle has major test anxiety. Her way of being and communication style more than met their needs. The toy treats at the end were the cherry on top for them. She was on time, took her time, communicated effectively with the kids and us (parents), went over results thoroughly. Looking forward to scheduling with Renee next year!

Renee was very quick to get back to me and was so helpful answering all of my 1st time homeschool mom questions. She lives close to our home and provided us a lot of available times to take the test. I think this test is extremely valuable and we will be doing it after every school year to make sure that our son stays on track and there aren't areas that we need to provide additional support for. During testing, she put our very nervous son at ease very quickly so he was able to focus on the assessment and really show what he knows. She gave us a lot of information on how the testing would work, how long to estimate it would take, how to report to the state when he took the test, what information the results would provide and the general layout of the test (oral and written parts). She put our son's nerves to rest very quickly, she had a very comfortable testing environment and he really liked working with Renee. The detail reports of the test results and her walking us through them as well as letting us know if we have any additional questions we could reach out to her. She also gave us information on possible co-ops in the area which was very appreciated. We will absolutely be using Renee for our year end testing.
