Rebecca Field Consulting

"Rebecca Field was terrific at helping our son figure out what kind of college experience he really wanted.  She sat down with us and went through all the options, helped with personal statements, worked with us on choosing what public universities would be a good fit, and made up an extensive list of private colleges. Rebecca knows a lot about the disability resources at the various places Noah applied. She always answered our questions promptly and worked with us to keep within our budget. She has been a pleasure to work with, and as a testimonial to her good work, our son has been admitted to seven universities and colleges so far.  We couldn’t be more pleased."

Leslie, 12th Grade Parent

"Rebecca Field is an excellent advisor with multiple assets. During our sessions together, she gave me good advice and guidance in handing my transition from high school to college.  She also helped me build up good habits like organizing my time.  In addition, she also aided me in preparation for getting a job, especially with interviewing skills and how to look for one from different sources."

Alvyn, Freshman at Diablo Valley College

"Rebecca Field is an amazing college advisor, I truly could not have asked for better support and guidance. She was always extremely responsive and virtually available 24 hours a day to my questions and requests. Rebecca tirelessly advised me with the application process, and spent hours helping me one-on-one with my essays. I am impressed with her knowledge of the subject matter, and if she didn’t know the answer to my question, she was quick to research the topic. Rebecca Field’s dedication and genuine concern was invaluable while going through the strenuous process of applying to college!"

"If you are concerned about helping your student transition from high school to college, you’re in the right place!  Rebecca Field, Ed.M. is knowledgeable, caring, and truly dedicated to each student.  She has a passion for helping students with learning disabilities learn the tools required for success in the college environment, including:  choosing a college, testing, the application process, note taking, organization, time management, and more.  She goes out of her way to research every available resource at the colleges that interest your student to prepare for a smooth transition.

 

At the beginning of the school year, my students were considerably nervous about the college transition.  If I brought up the word “college,” the students would tense up.  However, throughout that school year, I watched these students blossom.  Their nervousness turned into excitement for the future!  By the end of the year, every student would come and talk to me about college – telling me how Ms. Field had found some colleges that they wanted to visit.  They would tell me when they finished their college applications, or when they received their acceptance letters, or what jobs they planned to apply for.  Rebecca’s enthusiasm is contagious!  I wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca Field, Ed.M."

"Before we started meeting, I had no idea about what the word "college" meant.  I didn't know how or what to do.  After our first meeting I became so much more enthusiastic and motivated!"
