"Danielle, we wanted to show you that he wrote a whole page basically by himself. He initiated it, thought of what to write all by himself, and got upset when I tried to help him with things to think of to write. He has progressed since before summer and we are so proud of him! Thank you for all you do. We see how you have a great rapport with him and he is learning from you. We think you are so amazing and we are glad to have found you!"

“I’m writing to share an interaction I had with my son earlier today. I told him he would be taking another practice test this upcoming Saturday and he replied that he is looking forward to it because he actually enjoys preparing for the exam! This blew me away because he cried and cried the first time he took the practice exam.This leads me to feel so grateful for your services! To make something so potentially dry into something fun is quite a feat. Kudos to Taylor and your organization!”

“From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for everything, Danielle. You have been such a life saver for my son and really a vital person on his college journey. He has enjoyed his sessions with you and you taught him so much more than math. You gave him so much confidence and lifted his spirits when he faced some real lows. You will always have a special place in our hearts and we can’t thank you enough. I’m sure next semester he will be needing help and will reach out! Thank you! ”

“I am so grateful to be part of the La Jolla Learning works community now more than ever. Just knowing that my child is guaranteed a set amount of individualized and high-quality work time takes so much pressure off the overall home learning experience. It gives both parent and child some valuable breathing room, and reduces the amount of nagging and stress in our daily routine. The switch from in-person to virtual tutoring was an easy one to make, and both my child and I agree that the content and quality remains consistent. The tutoring sessions have come to be a reliable and reassuring constant for us both during this time of great disruption.”

“Lily LOVED Bree today. This is a great match. Thanks. Lily thinks she didn’t get the math sheet for homework. It wasn’t mandatory and she can get it Thur. She was very excited to show me the algebra she learned, and then she couldn’t locate it. This is the FiRST time that I have seen her get excited over math! Congrats ”

Since beginning Structured Literacy tutoring with Danielle at La Jolla Learning, our daughter's reading skills have improved tremendously. In the six months since she began tutoring, our daughter's reading skills have improved every single month, and her teacher says she's very close to reading at grade level now. She is also a much more confident reader and student, and she's even beginning to read on her own for fun. Our daughter has worked with reading tutors before, but the specialized support and structured literacy program at La Jolla Learning has clicked for her in a way that nothing else has. We're tremendously grateful for the care, attention, and support that Danielle has provided for our daughter, and we couldn't be happier with our experience at La Jolla Learning!

“I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much we appreciate all that La Jolla Learning is providing for our darling Granddaughter. She has already gained so much by working with her instructor, who is such a perfect match for her talents and tutoring needs. She has greatly increased her confidence and academic understanding by interacting with him, and it’s clear that he has his own unique gifts in communicating with her and quickly ascertaining her tutoring priorities. We are gratified to find her increased confidence transferring into other aspects of her young life, both academic and social. Finally, we are privileged to read the session reports and are excited to see how she continues to develop in so many areas. Again, our thanks to the La Jolla Learning staff and especially to her instructor – a real gem!”

“Breann makes Owen want to attend tutoring. I am not even sure how this happens but he goes out of his way to miss things even to make sure he can work with her. I appreciate her willingness to find books that interest him and for taking him on as the quirky kid he is.”

Could you please pass on our news to Marlene? We are so incredibly thankful for her. We will miss seeing her weekly. She has blessed our hearts deeply. We wish her and her family so much love and blessing.”

La Jolla Learning has been an invaluable resource for the families I advocate for. They’re dedicated to understanding each child’s unique learning profile and provide tailored services in tutoring, educational therapy, and executive functioning skills. They go above and beyond by reviewing reports to create an individualized curriculum and in finding a good match with the tutor based on the students’ needs. The Mind Print evaluation reports have been monumental, providing insights into the students’ learning profile, benefiting not just the student and family, but the teachers working with the student.
