It is possible
Thank you for taking the time to learn about Stone and his needs. Once that connection is built and established, it is possible to help him manage his daily things.
The coach was terrific.
The whole process of being connected to the coach was terrific. Each step was clearly explained, and my coach has been beneficial by helping me to identify my weak points and create methods to take small wins and build upon them. Highly recommend it to neurodivergent those looking to discover ways to improve their lives!
I'll rate this coach with zero stars.
The system's efficiency is determined by who the coach is, not the BBS system itself, as it is described. BBS can match coaches beforehand, but potential clients can't get an accurate idea of the expertise that trainers expert trainers my son has during the summer before going to college. He was with the same coach for the first two weeks of the fall semester. There was no noticeable improvement, and the session reports from the coach were not specific (even when our son had consented to us having access to the BBS), and it was difficult to discern the issues. After only a few sessions, he got a different coach (this time, we understood how to assess better). It was as if it was night and day.
Additionally, the improvement continues to improve. The coach who is second in line deserves five stars. I'll rate this coach with zero stars.
My daughter was at the pre-contemplational stage of seeking help
My daughter was at the pre-contemplational stage of seeking help. The first coach was not very helpful. However, we switched coaches, and the new coach was more engaging and was my daughter at ease; it would have been a great help. I was irritated by the model of subscription they employed and then complained about the cost. However, they were accommodating in listening to me and making things perfect. I believe they're trying to be a good team. I think that working remotely isn't the best option, but it's what we must do right now.
I am convinced I would not be at this stage in my life
It's difficult to explain the positive impact my time beyond Booksmart accurately has had on my personal and academic growth. In contrast to a tutor or an instructor, the method that Beyond Booksmart employs to coach students addresses the root causes that cause an unmotivated student initially. I've experienced that by personal experience, as I've had numerous tutors before coaching; still, none were effective until my coach showed me methods to organize my time, learn effectively and set and achieve goals. While seeing a dramatic improvement in my performance was rewarding, the confidence I built in myself, and my talents went beyond academic success. I am convinced I would not be at this stage in my life at the time I did without the help of book smart.
I'd give it five stars!
I was not involved with the intake. My husband Dave was, but the doctor was very highly impressed. He likes the idea of a report on Michael's improvement. If we can get started and look at the results, I'd give it five stars!
Our teen has worked with an amazing coach
Our teen has worked with a fantastic coach for several years. They have developed a great friendship which has helped our child become more articulate and deal with various issues.
As an adult, I have enjoyed the honesty and clarity of subsequent reports.
They often provide me with the chance to talk about specific issues together with my son in a manner that is clear but not threatening.
An unforgettable experience
Michael at Beyond BookSmart was a great mentor and friend. I had the best high school experience from 2009 to 2011.
His attention to detail and his ability to break down seemingly impossible tasks into manageable chunks taught me so many things about managing my time and how to take on larger projects.
Beyond BookSmart helped me feel confident and competent in handling any challenge I faced in college and the real world. They are a great team to work with!
Amazing experience!
The experience I have had working for Beyond BookSmart has been a truly amazing one. Our trainer was patient enough to "get" my kid; my daughter is often timid around strangers. My daughter has benefitted from using tools and strategies that help her keep organized, plan her time, and start. She currently manages her homework independently and studies with minimal support; however, I appreciate most that she knows when she needs assistance and how to accomplish this! Although it's not a cheap service, I believe it's worth the cost.
