Is your student struggling academically or lacking motivation? Are they challenged by overwhelm, social pressures, time management, or balancing commitments?
Nurturing and personalized coaching for adolescents and teens is essential today. Guiding students to recognize their unique strengths and encouraging self-development is a gift with significant responsibility. I take this learning path, for your child, very seriously. I focus on improving executive functioning, empowerment, and life skills for each student using the Meta Learning DeStress method.
At Pink and Blue Place, learning and coaching is individualized, customized, and tailored to the whole student. Students are involved in creating their action plan which fosters self-worth and the ability to thrive. Additionally, a collaborative approach to learning accommodates diverse learning styles and addresses individual challenges. A student’s mind is open to learning when they are feeling whole emotionally, physically, or mentally.
Moving beyond traditional teaching and tutoring encourages optimal learning for my students. With consistency, this approach has resulted in significant improvements for my students, ranging from 30% to 190%.
As a lifelong learner myself, I continue to learn every day to best meet the needs of all learners. I am disciplined in multiple science-based reading and writing instructions and systematic and explicit phonics instruction. I have extensive experience differentiating lessons for individual student needs.
Somewhere in our life, we receive a spark of motivation. We align to a purpose. We learn to acknowledge our daily self, our personal strengths and abilities. Sometimes, we need a little more help from a kind mentor to believe and set achievable goals. As a Wholistic Learning Success Coach, it is a privilege to guide a student towards their own spark, ignite a flame within them, and customize learning - empowering students while holistically acknowledging their needs, challenges, and viewpoints.

I set your child up with the winning Mind-Set, needed Skill-Set, customized Action-Set, and personalized Tool-Set.
I understand that one size doesn't fit all, and all my plans are tailored to each child's uniqueness.
I coach struggling students, unmotivated learners, and those who hate schoolwork.
Unlike traditional methods that focus on weaknesses, we harness your child's strengths and their potential.

The solution I offer is based in relationship learning, and it’s key to discuss our expectations and determine if we are a match and are motivated to work with each other.

We will meet and discuss your current situation and your child’s past and recent experience with learning. Based on your child's needs and your goals, I will present to you a custom solution tailored to your child's needs.

Based on our conversation, you will learn why your child is struggling to learn, and the exact steps needed to improve your child’s motivation, performance and how we can work together as a team.

"Ms. Sequino is more than just an educator—she is a mentor, advocate, and unwavering supporter of her students. She went above and beyond for our son, dedicating personal time to understand his learning challenges and foster his growth. Her ability to connect with parents, guide us through the school system, and ensure our child received the support he needed was invaluable.
She never labels students by their difficulties but instead empowers them to see challenges as opportunities for growth. Her classroom philosophy, embodied by the ‘I Can’t’ box and the mantra ‘I Can Always Try to Do My Best,’ helped our son build confidence and resilience.
Ms. Sequino’s deep commitment to her students' well-being and success is unmatched. She patiently guided our son, who has ADHD, with understanding and respect, never diminishing his spirit. Her expertise in navigating IEPs ensured he received the services he deserved.
We highly recommend Ms. Sequino as a Learning Coach and educator who brings both compassion and excellence to her work."
