“The staff has been so caring, so knowledgeable and so helpful in helping my son, Connor, deal with his auditory processing challenges…we’ve seen a 180-degree change in so many areas…Connor’s confidence and self-esteem improved dramatically and our home environment has become so much more peaceful. Even Connor has recommended it to others.”

“Chanel is happier at school with her friends. She gets up on time and gets ready on her own. She even gets her clothes out on her own! I am very happy with the improvement and to see how happy and energetic she is when she leaves school.”

“Thank you for offering such a program for kids and adults. I wanted to take the time to thank you and your staff for helping make my son, Andrew succeed in school. He has become more confident and has been excelling at school this year! I rarely have to help him with his homework. I had to help just about every night in previous years. He has told me numerous times about how school is so much easier for him. He also, mentioned that he doesn’t feel the need to get up from his desk anymore. He has been getting mostly straight “A’s” and 1 “B”! The grades before consisted mostly of “C’, D’s and F’s”. I just can’t believe how much your program has really helped him! See the below email that his teacher sent to me that really shows his improvements.”

“After I came to Pathfinders I noticed that I started paying better attention in school. I have an easier time remembering what my teachers are saying. My grades have improved in Spanish and Math. I have become more active and I spend less time watching TV or playing video games. It’s easier to wake up in the morning and I have more energy during the day. I’m better able to remember things that I have read. My mom even noticed that my backpack is neater and more organized!”

“Brenda Lana and her team have been wonderful… We had Kyle tested several times to find answers as to why he was struggling in school. The only recommendations we got was that Kyle needed more time on tests, or to have his questions read out loud, but no one had any recommendations on how to fix his issues. It wasn’t until Pathfinders that someone finally put together a plan that actually made a difference. Kyle is doing much better in school and his confidence has really improved.”

“I’m glad I came to Pathfinders because school is easier; I understand and see things better. My homework goes faster, and I don’t need as much help with it now. I fight less with my sister and the music puts me in better moods. In class, I ask more questions because I feel more confident. Learning to visualize helps me remember dates and my friends’ addresses, and when I read I see pictures. My writing makes more sense to other people. I would tell someone else when it’s hard sometimes, to keep practicing and keep trying because it’s worth it.”
-Emily R., 8th Grader
“I highly recommend Pathfinders to any parent who is struggling to find help for their child. My perspective on Pathfinders is informed by years of therapy that my daughter, who has extensive developmental delays, has endured. We have seen both the good and the bad over the years as we have struggled to navigate the industry of professionals who clamor for our dollars and who claim to have the answers and the help my daughter needs. That is why, to us, Pathfinders stands out as a truly exceptional place. My daughter, who is easily frustrated and often feels defeated, is consistently challenged at Pathfinders to perform tasks that press directly on her weaknesses. Yet she is thriving there because of the encouragement, patience, gentleness, and cheerfulness that permeates every interaction my daughter has with her therapists. The staff is extremely professional, competent and knowledgeable. And while many people can lay claim to knowledge, it has been my experience that very few can apply that knowledge in a way that excites and supports insecure kids who have so often been made to feel that they don’t measure up. Pathfinders focuses on motivating and nurturing my daughter and then measuring the tangible results of their efforts. I am very pleased with my daughter’s rapid progress and am extremely grateful to have found Pathfinders Learning.”

“I can say without a doubt the Pathfinder program was 100% worth doing for our son. Going into Jr. High, I knew that he needed something to improve his reading, lessen his anxiety, improve his retention of school material, and improve his confidence in the classroom. Through the Pathfinders Learning Center, he was able to achieve those goals. He now believes he can do anything in school that he works towards, he is reading with ease and is proud of that; he no longer is exhibiting signs of anxiety towards schoolwork or the workload. He has gained a confidence with his schoolwork that he did not have prior to the program. The staff at Pathfinders was phenomenal. He always looked forward to seeing his trainer and she brought out the best in him while they worked through the program together. I believe this was a life-changing program for our son.
