Testimonials
At Conscious Tutoring, progress isn’t just measured in scores and grades — it’s felt in confidence, connection, and a child’s renewed belief in themselves.
Again and again, families tell us the same thing:
“I feel smart again.”Â
That feeling — safety first, growth second — is the heart of everything we do.
Measurable Progress, Thoughtfully Tracked

Growing Focus & Motivation
“Paxton has been seeing Mrs. Lane for two months now and has thrived under her tutoring. Her dynamic approach of one-on-one and group time has helped Paxton’s focus and drive. Working alongside other children has helped him solve problems, build confidence, and learn from others.”
— Dana Stone, Parent
Confidence That Extends Beyond the Page
 “I appreciate Christina’s ability to gently nudge my 11-year-old son into more challenging reading material and writing exercises using step-by-step, concrete skills that build upon each other.
Her genuine belief in him has been invaluable in strengthening his academic confidence — for both fun and not-so-fun work.”
— Caroline Gebhardt, LPC, RYT
 Parent Voices
Parents often come to us feeling worried, unsure, or burned out from trying to help on their own. What they discover instead is relief — and hope.
“My son has been very reluctant to get tutoring help. Being at home, having friends in the sessions, and focusing for only 45 minutes made this a perfect fit.
His reading pace and progress have amazed me. He seems more confident in general — which is everything.”
-Â Erica M.
“Knowing you were there to push him, listen to him, help him, care for him — all the things — was such a comfort.
Middle school is weird, wonderful, and hard, and it really does take a village.
I’m so thankful you’re part of ours.”
— Courtney Fitzgerald
“My son was so proud when he finished his first book-club book.
He even asked to re-enroll so he could keep meeting with the same group of boys.
I can’t remember the last time he finished a chapter book at home.”
— Spring 2023 Parent
“When kids feel supported relationally, they believe in themselves — and Christina does this beautifully.”
— Caroline Gebhardt, LPC, RYT
 Student Voices
Students often come in nervous — and stay because they feel seen.
“I was surprised I made real friends. Some of us even play games online between classes.”
— Grade 8 Student
“I was nervous about reading and writing in a group, but it’s been good for me.
I didn’t know I could write as much as I do now.”
— Grade 8 Student
“I thought tutoring would be boring, but it’s better with other kids my age.”
— Grade 6 Student
“I like that I can do the sessions at home. We start with a game, and that gets me in the mood to do the rest. My grades are better — and I can tell it’s working.”
— Grade 9 Student
“Ms. Christina is God-sent. My son has really progressed — to the point that it brings me to tears.
He was diagnosed with dyslexia, and she has helped so much. She’s genuine, patient, and truly cares.”
— Lavette Jenkins
“Christina is a human-growth magician. Our family has followed her work for years, and Conscious Tutoring has been a perfect fit at every stage of our children’s development.”
— Jean-Jacques Credi
“She connects with all kids — even the hard-to-reach ones — and makes them feel seen and understood.
That safety allows kids to grow academically and personally.”
— Katie Garrison
