Helping Families

Working with families for success

Families are often under huge pressures and stress in our current world. The core strength of the family is threatened by invaders like professional busyness, pressures of academic competition, social media influences and many other potential attackers on the sanctuary of the family. The education of multiple children in a family is a huge undertaking for parents. Keeping abreast of students’ academic performance by helping align and prioritize accountability for assignment completion and exam preparation is key in establishing an organized plan for success. Setting targets for students and holding them accountable for making those targets and reflecting on the reasons for which targets aren’t reached are important steps in empowering students to plot success toward consistent performance.

Westbrook is often assigned large mandates by families to comprehensively steward the children’s education. Communication with teachers, tracking assignment and exam dates, empowering students to be accountable for preparation and planning and most importantly…providing expert professionals to support students of all abilities in all subject areas are just some of the mandates Westbrook assumes when supporting a student. We develop long standing rapport with families as they travel through the stages of their children’s educational development, beginning in elementary and continuing into post-secondary support. This relieves stress and pressures on parents as they assign education related responsibilities to Westbrook, freeing them up to spend time with the children engaging in more relaxing activities.
