Untapped Success Stories

Malarie’s journey:

Malarie has always found school challenging. Since high school, she’s struggled to juggle her classes and complete her assignments on time.

When Malarie and her mentor, Emiko, started working together, they focused on organizing her assignments and improving her time management skills. Emiko introduced various methods to help Malarie manage her time better, like the Pomodoro method, time blocking, and avoiding multitasking. They spent time reflecting on her study habits to find what worked best for her. As Malarie began college, they continued to work on time management, emphasizing the importance of structuring her day and taking care of herself.

With Emiko’s support, Malarie has made significant progress in managing her academic responsibilities and prioritizing her well-being. Their ongoing partnership is helping Malarie navigate the challenges of college life. Together, Malarie and Emiko are laying the groundwork for a successful academic journey marked by growth and achievement.

In the past few years, my child has developed time management skills, completed their homework and studies on time, and become more organized. I would recommend Untapped to anyone without hesitation! They are well worth the time and expense! It has been a life-changing experience for my child to be a part of Untapped.”

Jessica Whitehall

Parent

“Our son has been meeting with his Untapped mentor for two school years now. We have seen really great progress in his ability to plan, prepare and actually complete his homework. He enjoys meeting with his mentor and having someone outside for accountability reduces the fights at home too. It is a great program and has been invaluable for our son.”

Janelle Hahn

Parent

“Both our high school and college-aged children have worked with coaches from Untapped Learning to support their special needs – one has executive function challenges and the other severe anxiety. In both cases, they were paired with coaches who were a great match to help work through their challenges, and both have made significant improvement in their coursework. I highly recommend Untapped Learning for academic support of both high school and college students!”

Kristen DeBeer

“Over the years, Untapped has helped two of my children better manage their school experience by boosting their executive function skills and confidence. I so appreciate the mentoring – it helps tremendously to have someone else other than me tracking things on the school front. Bonus, the kids enjoy going.”
