Additional Info

Description of Services : Rebecca Field Consulting (RFC)specializes in working with high school and college students with learning differences (LD). RFC also works successfully with students who do not have a LD profile.

RFC helps high school students with the college selection and admission process and works with college students as a College Success and Retention Coach.

RFC's coaching services are individually designed to aid LD students in accessing the supports that they need on a college campus, managing their time effectively, advocating for themselves, and developing independence and self-esteem.

RFC provides a supportive link between the college, the student, and the parent(s). Services are provided in person and via Skype.

RFC aims to help LD and non-LD students discover a great college match and stay there successfully.

Description of Experience : With experience as a middle and high school classroom teacher, a Middle School Director, and the founding Academic Dean at the Julia Morgan School for Girls in Oakland, Rebecca brings years of experience partnering with students and families. She loves helping students and families find the most suitable post secondary plan.

Though she has significant experience working with students who do not struggle academically, Rebecca's work focusing on LD students began in her administrative positions when she started to understand the unique challenges of her LD students.

After leaving Julia Morgan and earning her Certificate in College Admission and Career Planning from UC Berkeley, Rebecca expanded her work to include a focus on the LD student population.

She currently works with high school students helping them to select and apply to appropriate colleges. She also works as a College Success and Retention Coach, helping students already in college stay there successfully.
