Bio
Dr. Maksim Vasilevsky Ed.D.
It is without reservation that I recommended Jessica Belz. Jessica’s is one of those individuals whose work ethic and problem-solving skills make her stand out amongst her colleagues. Jessica is a seasoned professional who fosters a positive learning environment when leading groups of students. Her collaboration with school staff is extraordinary and genuinely in the interest of her students. Since joining our team, she has become essential to supporting not only students, but helping staff members understand how to best support those students who were considered difficult or unapproachable. Most importantly, her work ethic is beyond reproach. She demonstrates her dedication to her students through the toughest situations so that they can overcome obstacles. It is my honor and privilege to have been able to work with Jessica. She would make a remarkable addition to any work environment.
