"Newman helped me develop a mindset to find positivity in all situations, allowing me to focus on strengths when interacting with my kiddos at work to help build them up. They also do not lie when they say they’re preparing you for grad school, which I’m incredibly grateful for as the perseverance I learned during my coursework has made grad school much easier."
