TESTIMONIALS
In their own words.
Both my daughter Ellie and my son Aaron have been taking your courses since your very first session, and they truly enjoy them. They always find your classes fun, inspiring, and useful. I actually had my 7th-grade daughter, Ellie, join the high school course registration Q&A session on her own last Saturday, and it gave her a lot to think about in a very good way. Like many parents, I sometimes feel it can be hard for us to guide our kids in a way that really clicks. But when older students share their own experiences and advice with younger kids, it works so naturally and so well. Even though Ellie is still a little unsure about exactly what she wants to do, I can already see that she is starting to think more seriously about her own path, her interests, and the steps she may need to take. That is such a meaningful thing. I really appreciate the time, care, and thoughtfulness you both put into this work. It is wonderful that students like you are here to guide and encourage younger kids. You are not only helpful teachers, but also such great role models for them. As a parent, I truly appreciate all the long-term effort you put into helping younger students and families feel more confident and better prepared. It really makes a difference.

We have been attending EdVenture's High School/College Admissions and Course Selection Help for Freshmen Workshops hosted by Anushka and Krishay. As a parent, I found Anushka and Krishay’s ability to simplify the complex world of high school and college prep incredibly valuable. They present information in a way that resonates with both students and parents alike, providing us with much needed clarity and a clear roadmap for the high school years. Their patience and genuine passion for student success shine through in every session. I wish both of them great success in their future endeavors

As a parent of two middle schoolers, EdVenture has filled a gap many families face when navigating the high school process and preparing for future careers. The workshops were very informative in breaking down course planning, extracurricular activities, and much more. My children have enjoyed the career workshops which have helped them discover their interests and identify fields they are interested in pursuing.

As an incoming freshman family with minimal understanding of the high school system, my family is in awe of the perspective and guidance EdVenture provided. Both Anushka and Krishay show the utmost professionalism and dedication to helping the community. As time was running out and there was still a steady stream of participations, they extended their outreach. They conduct an additional session the next day to accommodate students or parents who may still have questions. My family came out of the session equipped with the information to make appropriate course selection You have done an excellent job! Above all, you have made an impact to your community. Thank you for the initiative and outreach. Greatly appreciate the guidance and insight!

Anushka and Krishay are doing a fantastic service for the student community by hosting such thoughtful and helpful sessions for incoming freshman students. They covered so many important topics, including course selection, navigating high school challenges, staying organized for success, and learning how to manage stress and channel energy effectively instead of feeling overwhelmed. My daughter found the session extremely valuable. She was able to ask many detailed questions, and both Anushka and Krishay shared insightful, practical advice from their own experiences. She came away with a much better understanding of what to expect in high school and truly appreciated their guidance and encouragement. Keep up the wonderful work, and continue organizing more events like these to support and inspire students in the community!

Joining EdVenture in 2024, I have learned so much about the high school process but also skills that have helped me succeed as I enter high school. Mainly, the Public Speaking workshop prepared me for my high school’s speech and debate team and even pass interviews for summer programs. Beyond that, I am more prepared than most other students when it comes to planning my high school path, choosing classes, activities, competitions, and more because of the guidance and mentorship offered through EdVenture. I am incredibly grateful to the students who created and continue to run EdVenture
