Testimonials

Irene F.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Sarah tutor our son from 7th through 12th grade at Canterbury School in Fort Myers. Over those six years, she provided not only consistent academic support, but also mentorship and encouragement. Her ability to explain complex concepts with clarity and patience made a tremendous difference in his confidence and performance, especially during the high school years. She is professional, reliable, and deeply committed to her students/growth— both in and out of the classroom. We are truly grateful for the impact she had on our son’s education and highly recommend her to any family looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate educator.

Sarah has been the single most important factor in my son's education.  She helped him get orgranized, worked with him on test prep and most importantly in understanding the material put before him.  Sarah took the time to understand how his brain worked, and met him where he was at, not where the models say he should be.  She is so much more than an educator.. she's a cheerleader, advocate and mentor.  She not only helped my son feel confident in the work he was doing, she helped me understand him.. My son did not learn material like most students, but she found a way to make it all click.  He is now in his third year of college on a baseball scholarship, in large part, thanks to her efforts and knowledge.

We had a wonderful experience with Waypath. Tutoring for my son made a noticeable difference in both his school performance and his confidence as a rising first grader. The tutors are highly experienced, fully engaged, and very supportive throughout each session. They took the time to understand his needs and made learning enjoyable for him. We are so happy with the results and truly grateful for the progress he’s made. Highly recommend!

WayPath has been so beneficial for my son!
His test scores have significantly improved and he no longer has test anxiety. He now has the skills and motivation to be a much better student and feels totally prepared when going in for testing.
Liz and Brooke have given my son the strategies, confidence and a game plan to achieve his best results. He actually looks forward to his weekly visits! The one on one sessions are definitely worth the price.
We have tried the “name brand” tutoring services at a ridiculous cost and no progress.
These valuable lessons will definitely be helpful into his college years.
WayPath provides a constant feed of communication to keep the parents and the students up to date on their learning status. Wish I would have hired them sooner! Don’t wait, call Sarah today!

WayPath academics has been a God send! My daughter was struggling with math, study skills and preparing for her exams.

Sarah and her team are absolutely amazing. I was blessed to work with Sarah and witness the impact she has on students. From organization to executive functioning coaching, Sarah is truly a master at her craft, but more importantly, she genuinely cares and it shows in everything she does. She takes immense pride in her work and has built a team that truly reflects her values and level of excellence. She excels in every area and goes above and beyond for the students and families she supports. My kids love her and her team! Highly recommend!

Where do I begin? Sarah was a beacon of hope at a time where I was feeling desperate due to lack of resources for children with dyslexia. She is a WEALTH of knowledge and an excellent tutor. She not only understands the academic needs of children with learning differences but also the emotional needs. There were times when my son would get overwhelmed with emotions and she was a safe space for him to express his frustrations and anger. She is kind, caring and truly just wants the best for the children that she tutors. My son made leaps and bounds both academically and emotionally after tutoring with her. I cannot say enough good things about her. My support for Sarah cannot be overstated. If your child is struggling with dyslexia do not hesitate to reach out to Sarah, it will be the best decision that you can possibly make.

Brooke and Sarah are amazing. They have gone above and beyond in helping my son get his grades and test scores where we need them to be. I am a very unorganized parent with many businesses and I can’t keep up. Thank god for Waypath. I at least know my child is on the right path.

Who we are

At WayPath Academics, we recognize that school — and growing up — can be challenging in today’s fast-paced world. Many students feel overwhelmed by mental health pressures, constant distractions, and a lack of personal attention. That’s why we go beyond traditional tutoring. Our mission is to create a supportive, compassionate environment where students can discover their authentic voice, develop problem-solving skills, and build the confidence to navigate obstacles with resilience and grace.

We combine targeted academic support with metacognitive strategies like goal-setting, self-reflection, and progress evaluation to empower students to take ownership of their learning. While subject-specific tutoring is important, we believe that nurturing a child’s ability to think critically and advocate for themselves is what truly unlocks lifelong success.

WayPath Academics is proud to offer specialized support for students with dyslexia and ADHD, using evidence-based programs like Wilson Reading to help learners connect with language in ways that make sense to their brains. It’s our greatest joy to watch a student light up with excitement — whether it’s a breakthrough in reading or a moment of hard-earned understanding after a struggle.

We understand that successful educational journeys involve not just the child but the whole family. We work closely with families to foster realistic expectations, healthy support systems, and a community rooted in encouragement, not pressure. At WayPath Academics, we are committed to building strong, trusting relationships and providing the tools, guidance, and hope that help every learner thrive.
