My son was failing in public school and when I took him home to homeschool him, I wasn't having much luck either. It's only with Miss Jeanie at Finding Strengths that my son was able to catch up with the rest of his peers. She not only got him to learn what he hadn't been able to, but she's taught him life skills that I didn't think he could learn. Things like time management and flexibility. Things he had trouble with because of his disabilities. He is succeeding so much more then I ever thought possible and it's all due to Miss Jeanie.

I like Ryan because he is relatable. He is a good teacher but switches things up because he is still a young adult. I think hes able to teach me because hes still in touch with modern games and music. I find it fun even to learn from because its nice to be able to relate to a teaching figure. --- Kieran
