Educational Consulting Services

Under the leadership of Brad Hoffman and Faya Hoffman — a husband-and-wife team and both Board Certified Educational Planners (Educational Consultants) and Learning Specialists — My Learning Springboard is a boutique multidisciplinary educational consulting firm and learning concierge® service offering a wide range of educational consulting services at every level from nursery through college. These services include: 1) school planning and college counseling, 2) academic tutoring and executive function coaching, and 3) test preparation. Our school planning and placement expertise includes both day schools and boarding schools across mainstream, specialized, and therapeutic settings as well as virtual schools and homeschooling.

We partner with each family to provide an integrated and meaningful experience, which often includes collaboration with school faculty and related service professionals. Through our unique structure and individualized approach, we offer a wide range of services to students, families, and schools. We see learning as a lifelong journey and our goal is to help students of all ages enjoy the ride, build confidence, and achieve success.

In addition to their years of classroom teaching experience and consultation with both families and schools, Brad Hoffman and Faya Hoffman are both Professional Members of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA) with specialty designations in the mainstream (day and boarding schools), specialized (learning disabilities), and therapeutic placements. They are also members of The Association of Boarding Schools (TABS), Small Boarding Schools Association (SBSA), The Enrollment Management Association (formerly SSATB), the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), the National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs (NATSAP), the Association of Educational Therapists (AET), the Learning Disabilities Association of America (LDA), and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).
