“Dr. P has a real depth and breadth of knowledge and experience in the field of college admissions. Her presentations, articles, and newsletters have helped me to be a better resource for my students!”
“My children just attended one of Dr. P’s workshops at our local public library. They learned a lot through the role play part of the workshop. I would definitely have them take one of her classes again.”
“Dr. P is a fantastic resource! Her knowledge base seems endless, and she knows how to break it down into terminology all ages can understand! Her presentations are always well received at my library.”
