Kristi jumped in and helped our family when no one else believed in us and what we were trying to do. She has been such a gift to our entire family and I can’t thank her enough for all she has done. I only wish we would have developed our relationship sooner so my kids did struggled for as long as they did.

After 4 years of struggling with reading, she got my oldest to grade level with 8 months of intensive instruction blended with the most thoughtful and caring approach possible. Yes, she taught him to read - more importantly, she taught him to trust and believe in himself. He now talks about college regularly because of all she has done for him and his confidence has returned and he knows if he fails, it is only a temporary set back.

We also had her work with our middle kid. When a new school (that is a top tier school in our state) evaluated him, they couldn’t believe how advanced he was and it is 100% the work that he has done with Mrs Holl. He was starting to resist school and when she entered his life, his love of learning expanded and opened immensely.

I have no idea what my children will become and I want them to chase their dreams. Before Mrs Holl entered their life, we were not on that path regardless of the parenting. After Mrs Holl, we are on that path. She has given them both so much - personalization, belief and the gift of literacy. They both LOVE her and we are forever grateful of everything she has done for our family. My children struggling in school has been a huge challenge for our family, Mrs Holl listened, helped and guided all of us into a better future. There is truly no better investment for your child’s future in my opinion than lessons with Mrs Holl of they are struggling or need a boost.
