About Us
We have worked with over 10,000 students throughout the last 10 years teaching them how to use metacognition to enhance their studying and improve their grades. By exercising mindfulness, reducing test anxiety, and harnessing motivation, our students are able to achieve goals they previously thought were unattainable. Our greatest achievement is when we have earned enough trust from our students to go from instructors to family.
