Testimonials

“We are incredibly grateful for the guidance, care, and dedication Mrs. Jarsen brings to her Montessori work. Her deep respect for each child, her patience, and her ability to truly see who they are made a lasting impact on our son. She created a calm, prepared environment where he felt safe, confident, and excited to learn at his own pace over a 3-year period. She was flexible and made adaptations, as necessary, to help our son feel like he could be successful, which greatly boosted his confidence. The growth we witnessed — not just academically, but emotionally and socially — speaks volumes about her commitment and love for Montessori principles and fostering an environment that is safe and encourages children to be curious and wanting to learn more. Mrs. Jarsen was truly a gift to our son’s educational path. Her time with our son left a beautiful imprint on our entire family.”

“We LOVE Lisa!! We have seen SUCH an improvement in our child meeting weekly with Lisa. Our child was struggling to connect the dots for reading and spelling/writing. She is now able to read and write. Lisa also provides us with weekly updates on exactly what she covered in their lesson together. Our daughter is obsessed with going to her tutoring sessions and feels so supported by Lisa. HIGHLY recommend her. She is a wealth of knowledge and support!”

“Lisa Jarsen was my son’s teacher at Montessori for 3 years. She guided him through his 4th, 5th and 6th years with understanding, compassion and a unique ability to encourage him to bring his best work to the surface. Her belief in his competence and creativity birthed some incredible work and deepened his love of learning at a pivotal moment in his development. We’re so thankful for her thoughtful and inspired approach to teaching. She is a gift to students, families, and the field of education.”
