Your story!

I really enjoyed meeting with Nikki one on one. We discussed how I could further my career in my chosen field and suggested avenues for doing so that I hadn’t previously thought of. She suggested different local networking groups I could connect and other job related sites to look at. If you’re looking to make a career change or feel dissatisfied in your current position, I highly recommend chatting with Nikki!

It was great meeting with Nikki one on one. She provided me with feedback regarding my resume, tools to help me in my future job search and different networking groups I can connect with in town. I highly recommend her for her professionalism, follow-up and career advice. I am looking forward to working with her in the future.

Nikki asked what I needed help with. Then she asked more great questions for clarity on her part and they led me to think more about my problems I was trying to solve. She gave me great ideas and tools for moving forward. Most importantly, in my opinion, she asked at the end what I learned and what I was going to do different.

Nikki Bruno has been a member of 'Just Show Up' for over a year. As a coach for young people and their families exploring colleges and the admissions process she is a pro! Relatable (students will love her), knowledgeable and likeable are just a few qualities shown to us at our weekly meetings!

I utilized Nikki's Student Coaching Services as an adult planning for a complicated career shift as I transition into my "third act" of life. She's engaging, professional and direct in communicating how to identify the steps necessary to more clearly define and attain my goals. She helped me re-focus my intentions and come up with an actionable plan. Her follow-up is encouraging and motivating; she is affable and relatable. I will use her again as I progress down this new path.

Asking for, and receiving, help is so important these days. Thank you for being here to help our students and families through the often stressful high school years!

What a great way to learn about my habits, reflections, and learning about how to become a stronger human, inside and out. Thank you!

If you're a lowlife college student like me, do not be embarrassed to reach out for help, and do not hesitate to reach out specifically to Nikki Bruno. I have struggled with depression and anxiety for my whole life, but it wasn't until I got my more recent ADHD diagnosis that I considered alternate forms of help besides just therapy. I have talked at length with therapists and psychologists and psychiatrists (useful for their own thing, don't get me wrong), but I was starting to feel ready to just *do* the things I want to do rather than talking about them, and so my psychiatrist recommended a student coach. And well, it's been cheaper than therapy and far more effective! I'm allowed to say that, right? I'm not a medical specialist. Anyway, if this sounds like you, I am actually suggesting you give a consultation meeting a try. It'll still take a little effort on your part, but you'll very quickly be doing specific things to realize your goals (for me it was "not failing all of my classes again" 💖)

Before I started working with Nikki I was extremely disorganized and had low grades. Ever since I started working with Nikki my grades have improved, as well as my organization. I didn’t think I needed student coaching at first and then I realized how much it has helped me improve in total. I highly recommend Nikki.

I highly recommend Nikki and Student Coaching Services. My Son enjoyed working with her throughout the college application process, and was accepted and is thriving at the college of his choice. She is very easy to work with, knowledgeable about the entire process, organized, and sets expectations at the beginning, and every step of the way. More importantly, she knows how to work with students to define their goals, meet deadlines, and get results. She made the application process less stressful and more successful for the student and his parents!

Nikki is not just a phenomenal coach but she does everything with the best intentions and with the main objective to help others. I was really nervous at the beginning of the year about colleges because I thought that I would have trouble getting in. On the other hand, with the help of Nikki I got accepted into 8 out of the 9 colleges that I applied to.-thank you Nikki.

Nikki was great help for me! She helped me from the beginning of the process till the end from selecting the colleges, writing my essays, and more! I felt very comfortable talking about my essays and am glad I chose her for this process!

Nikki was a huge help to my son throughout his college application process: assessing his skills/interests; identifying possible schools; providing feedback on his essays and generally keeping him on track. In the end, he was accepted to all the schools to which he applied. I highly recommend Nikki, her company and its student coaching services.

Nikki is great! After just a few minutes of speaking with her, it was obvious that she goes above and beyond for her clients. If you want a top notch coach for your child, you need to all Nikki.

We contacted Ms. Nikki Bruno requesting her help in preparing our daughter for an interview for an high school admission. Given that it was the first interview ever for my daughter, Ms. Bruno helped her overcome fear and helped focus on her strength. Ms. Bruno was very knowledgeable in this field and helped my daughter in putting together a set of possible discussion points that helped her in the actual interview. I highly recommend her.

Nikki and the team at SCS are fabulous. I would never hesitate to refer any of my loved ones to them. They are incredibly knowledgeable and really have a knack for identifying and understanding different peoples strengths and weaknesses. Every student learns differently and they are great at utilizing the appropriate teaching styles for each individual. Great job as always!

My son has been coached by Nikki from student coaching services for past 2 years since he was 9th grade. The best coach I have come across so far and she always put an individual attention to the student to ensure my son is on top of his extra curricular and academic. Very approachable at any time and she always makes time to fulfill the needs of my requirement. I’m glad that I found her and I’ll be working with her for my daughter too for her school admission.

Really organized and very diligent; communication and problem solving skills are beyond reproach. Highly recommend!

Nikki does a great job helping students with whatever they need. Her feedback on things such as school admission personal statements are superb! Highly recommend.

Working with Nikki and SCS is a pleasure because of how patient and knowledgeable they are. They're great at what they do and I recommend them for anything you need related to succeeding in school and college.
