Amanda Broaddus has true “brain smith” skills. She has worked with our child over the last few years, educationally hammering, honing, and tempering gently, yet firmly. Amanda has a unique way of patiently sharpening our “piece of iron” into a confident learner, bit by bit, bending and shaping without breaking. With his development as an individual being her primary focus, she is a master at finding and filling the learning gaps. The results have been remarkable! ~ Ann & Chad Harrison
My son was struggling in several different areas, including speech, writing, and reading. He has been working with Mrs. Amanda for several months now and we have seen great improvement in every single area. He is even reading chapter books on his own, which he has never done before. My son tells me how much of a difference the therapy has made. We are so thankful for Mrs. Amanda and we highly recommend her.
“We found Amanda while looking for options to help my daughter with reading struggles related to suspected dyslexia. We have been working with her for 2 1/2 years and it has made such a difference in my daughter’s ability and confidence! Amanda is very knowledgeable and gifted in her area of expertise and it shows through the way she teaches and encourages her students!”
Our daughter has significant learning disabilities and emotional issues. We were struggling to help her improve her academic skills. We were so blessed when we connected with Amanda Broaddus. She has been such a help to our daughter. Amanda was able to identify our daughter’s difficulties and tailor a program that meets her needs. Amanda has also guided us in how we can best follow up with our daughter to reinforce the weekly sessions. Amanda has worked with us through our many educational transitions: public school, homeschool, and private Christian school. Under Amanda’s program we have seen our daughter improve her academic skills, in some cases, several grade levels within a year. We highly recommend her services for those who have children with learning differences.
Amanda has worked with two of our children, with very different needs. She has been extremely helpful in advancing their academic skills. I highly respect her approach, and her skills and knowledge are exceptional. ~ the Saylors
