How can we help?

Kim Donellan Educational Services LLC offers a variety of services to help families navigate their child’s education. We work with each family to find the right plan for them. We review a student’s history and background, assess, develop goals, and create specific lessons using the highest level of multisensory, researched-based programs. We help build confidence which drives independence and success, all while fostering the love of learning.

Who do we work with?

Our students range from typical learners, to students with known or suspected learning differences (dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, processing deficits, ASD, 2E, etc.), to advanced learners. We work with students in all grades from kindergarten through high school.

Who are we?

Hi there, I’m Kim!

I began my journey in education at a young age. I have two sisters with disabilities and have always been dedicated to helping others find their passions, develop their strengths, and overcome their challenges. I love seeing students light up with confidence and find joy in learning that creates life-long changes. I began my private practice in 2007 and have grown our team of specialists with different backgrounds in order to support all of our students. We work closely together and collaborate on every student. Every team member has a masters degree and extensive training in a variety of programs to deliver the highest services.

happy clients

My son has been working with Kim for the past 5 years and I continue to be impressed by the progress he has made. Over the years, Kim has adjusted priorities from reading and writing fundamentals in elementary school to more complex study skills applicable to all subjects in middle school. Thanks in large part to her support, his transition to a new academic environment was seamless and he approaches his schoolwork with confidence.

Parent of 7th grader

Kim has transformed our child’s education. Our son has had tremendous anxiety and self-doubt about his academics and eventually became disengaged in school altogether. Through her incredible patience and expertise in understanding nuanced learning differences, our son has the confidence and skills to excel. Over a 2.5 year period he has gone from being a school drop-out to now… a star in his school (with frequent notes from teachers praising his knowledge and ingenuity). We are eternally grateful for Kim.

Parent of 6th grader

My daughter struggled in math ever since we could remember. We did a summer intensive with Kim, and then continued to work with her during the school year. We have never seen her so confident, and her grades have never been higher. It has truly changed her life and we are so grateful.

Parent of 4th grader

Kim worked with me while I was in high school. I was really down on myself and was overwhelmed with the amount of work and how to get started. Kim came up with a plan for me and helped guide me to get back on track. She taught me tools that I use to this day, and I will always be thankful that Kim came into my life. I would not be where I am today without her.
