"I want to express my sincere appreciation to you for your commitment to providing thorough and useful technical assistance to Futures and Options. Both our internship and pre-internship programs are benefiting from our working sessions with you. To date, we have re-designed our Supervisor Evaluations, our internship program’s pre-tests and post-tests and added individual student evaluations for each workshop in the pre-internship program. We are looking forward to continuing to receive this assistance and working with you."

Patricia Machir, Executive Director, Futures and Options

"I have had the pleasure and honor to benefit from Abby's wisdom and expertise in the field of Youth Development. Abby is brilliant in her ability to guide organizations towards more meaningful programming for our youth. Each and every workshop and/or meeting I have attended where Abby was leading discussion proved to take all participants outside the box to find lasting solutions. She is dedicated in a way that inspires us all to be better."

Kyra Popiel, Manager of Special Projects, The Town Hall

"I have been working at the Brooklyn Museum since 2006 and each year work with Abby to receive technical assistance in conjunction with the teens programs I oversee there. During our technical assistance sessions, after listening closely to my programmatic concerns, Abby works with me in dialogue to create action plans that are doable and realistic for implementation and that improve the quality of my educational programs for teens. Abby offers concrete and tested solutions that are catered to my programmatic needs and goals. Abby is respectful of my expertise and experience which makes working with her satisfying and enjoyable."

Cheri Ehrlich, Senior Educator, Brooklyn Museum

"Abby Remer facilitates a dynamic workshop entitled "Workforce Ready," that is currently an integral part of our summer internship orientation. A sample list of "Workforce Ready" activities includes "Making a First Impression," "Dress for Success", "Time Management," and "Preparing for the Unexpected."

Abby's "Workforce Ready Workshop" provides an opportunity for the interns to role play, ask questions, and participate in teambuilding exercises. Because of Abby's energizing, interactive, and hands-on approach, the students are thoroughly educated as well as engaged.

One of the highlights of the "Workforce Ready Workshop" is the "Bad Email" exercise. With this activity, Abby provides the interns with a sample email. The email has 20 errors, and the interns must try and spot the errors. Once again, this activity is fun and engaging for the interns, yet provides the interns with essential tips on how to prepare for the workplace.

As a result of the students participating in the "Workforce Ready Workshop," the Apollo staff noticed the interns' positive telephone manners, time management skills, and overall polished appearance. Most important, the interns exhibit positive office decorum throughout the entire 6-week internship program.

In closing, I highly recommend Abby Remer for any and all opportunities relating to youth development, college planning, and teambuilding. I have had the pleasure of utilizing Abby and her workshops with overwhelming success. The services of Abby Remer would be a tremendous asset to your program."

Michelle Cox, Education Manager, Apollo Theater
