Our 5 and 7 year old have been working with Liz and Corey for about 8 months, and we are amazed by their progress. Both boys are on the ASD spectrum, and have been working on focus, anxiety, academics, and fine motor skills. There has been tangible improvement in all areas- both boys use mindfulness strategies at home, school, and in social situations. The mindfulness curriculum resonates and stays with them, and simple phrases and strategies help them cope with challenging situations. Math used to be almost impossible, and is now our 7 year old's best subject, and we are tackling reading next. Their handwriting is also much improved! The boys look forward to tutoring every week! I can't say enough great things about Corey and Liz!
Education
Compassion - Respect - Skill
Corey and Liz Hopkins have a vested interest in the success of our son which for us is priceless. Whether it's mindfulness with Corey or tutoring with Liz together they collaborate and develop an individualized and targeted plan that ensures growth. They carry out the plan with compassion, respect and skill. Because Corey and Liz have taken the time to really understand our son and the challenges he faces they are invaluable when it comes to advocating for him at school. Corey and Liz are a win win!!

A Lifesaver in time of crisis!
Hopkins Education Services was a lifesaver in a time of crisis! Our middle schooler son, who is very high functioning on the spectrum, was struggling in school. He put a lot of pressure on himself to get good grades, but because of his autism and his concrete thinking, it took longer for him to process the material. The school demands were too great. He shut down and refused to go to school, altogether. Corey's approach to learning, using mindfulness, has worked miracles. Our son is back in school full time (we changed schools) and has the tools to do well. We continue to use Corey for tutoring as he has a unique insight into how kids on the spectrum learn.

Insightful Tutors
Corey is very professional and brings much insight to both his tutoring approach and in sharing how we as parents can be helpful and a part of the learning process. It's been very helpful to our own children's growth and we've seen much improvement in a short period of time. Also our kids truly enjoy their time spent with Corey - they feel he's made them more confident in their learning ability and their school work challenges.
