Jason Robinovitz, the Chief Operating Officer of Score Academy, oversees each Center’s day-to-day operations, ensuring the delivery of top quality educational support and guidance services to client families. As team leader for our staff of more than 75 tutors, educational consultants, directors, and bookkeepers, Jason is in charge of strategic decision-making, including best practice policies, customer service, staffing, training, marketing, systems, and technology.

Jason is also involved in educational consulting services for college, boarding school, and law school clients. Meeting with students, Jason specializes in directing pre-law and future law-school students toward the extracurricular activities that will help position them for success. Skillfully guiding them through the application and essay process, Jason helps students distinguish themselves from the rest of the applicant pool. He also works with families seeking therapeutic placements for their children, identifying the “best fit” schools and programs for them and interfacing with these schools and programs to ensure successful placements.

As an active member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, the National Association for College Admission Counseling, and the Secondary School Admission Test Board, Jason is part of a professional network of admission directors, educators, psychologists and other educational consultants.

Jason graduated from the University of Denver with a BSBA in Finance and concentrations in Real Estate and Leadership. Three years later, he graduated from Emory University School of Law with a concentration in business and corporate law. Jason practiced medical malpractice law for five years before joining Score Academy. He is a member of the Florida Bar.

Jason is the son of Judi Robinovitz, founding owner of Score Academy.

Natalina Maiorino is the Controller for all Score Academy locations. She has over 25 years experience in the accounting field, having worked in the transportation, law, and construction industries. But working at Score has been her most challenging and rewarding by far. She has applied her expertise to streamlining procedures and processes, and to identifying cost reductions that ensure optimal operations at each Score center.

When, Score Academy adopted LearnSpeed (LS), a web-based educational service software application, Natalina became the go-to person. Much to her credit, the software developers at LearnSpeed have come to rely on Natalina for incisive critique and suggestions “from the trenches.” A truly sweet, symbiotic relationship.  Score Chief Operating Officer Jason considers Nat his right-hand woman in all matters pertaining to the comprehensive software tool. She also assists Jason with general Operations, Human Resources, management training, and, of course LearnSpeed training for new tutors and teachers: she’s the LS Guru!

Natalina is a first-generation Canadian of Italian descent. She grew up speaking Italian at home, English in school, and French (Québécois) around her neighborhood. Score’s polyglot has a smile that brightens the hallways wherever you find her! Natalina relocated with her husband to the Sunshine State from chilly Canada and has never looked back. She loves wearing open toed shoes year round, having left windshield scraping behind, north of the border. Now, it’s the salt life near the beach, in view of the ocean.

Our Nat holds a Bachelor Degree in Accounting from FAU, and a Master’s Degree in Business Administration from Western Governors University.

LeAnn Elder is the Head of School in our Boca Raton location. She is a licensed architect with an extensive educational background – a B.S. from The University of Virginia and a Master's in Architecture from Harvard University. She studied abroad in Vicenza, Italy, while at UVA. At both UVA and Harvard, LeAnn was chosen for a variety of Teaching Assistantships, including a unique opportunity to teach an architecture program to middle school girls. As a result, she went on to design and teach a summer architecture program for high school students while attending Harvard. Her passion for teaching led to community service projects, which included introducing inner-city children to architecture with the help of the Baltimore City Arts Council. Since arriving in Florida, she has taught at FAU, and has passed her Florida teaching exams for all middle school subjects, high school math, technology, and health.

As an architect, LeAnn designed a house that was featured in a magazine (an extraordinary, contemporary design, one into which the Robinovitz family could easily move!) and has worked for firms in both Maryland and Florida. Her background in architecture accounts for her attention to detail and ability to make certain that disparate pieces come together to form a unified whole, no matter what the scale.

Beyond her own lifelong commitment to education and extracurricular activities, including her current interests in playing the piano and lifting weights, she is a mother of two who loves mentoring her own children. They love to learn, play the piano and swim competitively on a swim team. Motherhood for LeAnn brought a shift of emphasis from the computer-dominated world of architecture to those qualities that touched on what she was truly passionate about – education and children.

LeAnn came to Score Academy with an enthusiasm to succeed and a strong belief in our mission. She was originally hired as the Center Director and Head of School but after 4 years of extraordinary success and growth, she now concentrates solely on Score Academy. She is extremely passionate about our school and leads all of our full-time enrolled students and part-time course for credit students. LeAnn’s position as Head of School has allowed her to fully optimize her strong and enthusiastic commitment to growing and further developing Score Academy and helping to reach as many students as possible. LeAnn oversees all of our professional teaching staff, working collaboratively with our parents, students, and teachers to ensure top-quality educational and support services for our students and their families.

Robin attended Vanderbilt University's Peabody College of Education, receiving undergraduate and graduate degrees there. She then moved to New York City and began teaching at a 6-12 school in the South Bronx. After 3 years, she came to her senses and moved back to Florida, where, since 2006, she has worked in the Palm Beach County public schools as a teacher, professional development and curriculum specialist, and school administrator. She has dedicated her life's work to identifying students’ strengths, and utilizing community-based and school resources to meet their needs and help them find a pathway to success. She has worked with every grade level, from 4-year-old VPK children to high school graduates; from students and families in need of safety and security first, to the top students at Suncoast High School. From each experience Robin learned that the one-size-fits-all model does not meet current student needs in today’s global economy.

Robin is a wife and mother of two. Parenting has given Robin an even deeper understanding of how important her role is as Head of School. When it comes to serving her families, no request is too small, no worry too insignificant – if it matters to you, it matters to Robin. She believes that it’s an honor and a privilege to be entrusted with your child's well-being and educational success every day. She treats every child as her own. Robin is excited to be at Score Academy and working with the unique and special students and families of the Palm Beach Gardens area. 

Maggie Alexander, Head of School for our Wellington location, discovered the power of individualized education while tutoring undergraduate students at George Washington University. Maggie conveys her goals for education this way: “In order to be successful in college or any profession, it’s essential that a student learn to articulate thoughts in writing and in speech."

Maggie spent several years as Academic Director and College Counselor at an area tutoring service, where she also tutored students in the humanities, social sciences, and writing. She has worked in admissions and financial aid at a liberal arts college in Massachusetts, and served as Wellesley College’s assistant squash coach. 

Maggie focuses on holistic student assessment – what type of individualized academic program will work best for student and family? With her ability to recognize each student’s personal learning style and distinct academic aspirations, Maggie takes pride in providing an environment conducive to reaching academic goals. For college-bound students, she’s intent on helping to find best-match schools. The most rewarding aspect of her job is having students share with her their success stories.

As a former Division I athlete and team captain, Maggie takes a particular interest in serving student-athletes. She has extensive experience advising students who are trying to balance academics, athletics, and other activities. In addition to developing customized educational solutions for student-athletes, Maggie also has experience providing academic support for students with learning challenges.

Maggie is well prepared to serve the annual influx of students who arrive during the Winter Equestrian Festival. A life-long equestrian, she understands from personal experience how to integrate high-level competition in the ring with achievement of academic goals.

Maggie holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in sociology, both from George Washington University, as well as a certificate in college counseling from UCLA.

Come to our Wellington center and be greeted at the door by one of Maggie’s four “wellness officers” (they’re canines!). She supports and advocates dog rescue and animal humane associations. Maggie’s other interests include competing on the national show jumping circuit, traveling the world, Texas hold’em, cooking, and following college and professional sports. Counselor, educator, athlete, and humanitarian, Maggie provides unexcelled direction to our Wellington learning center and school. 

As Head of School for Score Academy's Broward County locations, Lauren helps ensure your child’s success: discussing in depth your student's needs, creating and overseeing an appropriate support plan, and carefully matching your child to the best possible tutor/teacher based on learning style and personality. Lauren works collaboratively with students, parents, and classroom teachers to ensure top-quality service to our client families. She is dedicated to helping students gain the confidence they need to maximize their potential both in school and on admission tests ranging from the SSAT, SAT, and ACT to the LSAT, GRE, GMAT, and MCAT.

Lauren brings with her a passion for education and years of experience in tutoring students of all ages. After graduating from Yale with a B.A. in History, she moved to New York City where she spent seven years teaching students one-on-one through a boutique tutoring agency. Lauren took pride in being able to shape curriculum and adapt teaching styles to suit each individual student’s needs – and, in fact, developed expertise in teaching students with learning disabilities. She successfully prepared students for the SAT/PSAT, ACT, SAT Subject Tests, and SSAT, and tutored in several academic subjects. She also worked with students to fine-tune their college application essays. As a graduate of Deerfield Academy, a prestigious New England boarding school, Lauren has also become an invaluable resource for advising families about the boarding school experience.

It’s not only parents and students with whom Lauren interacts. She meets with college counselors, high school administrators, and BRACE advisors to create referral relationships based on the success of our work with students and schools. Lauren adds her voice to our staff of seasoned speakers who provide informative educational presentations at high school college fairs, PTA/PTO meetings, and other community events. On a broader scale, she communicates our array of networked services to students far beyond Florida and the U.S.

After moving to Florida with her husband (a native Floridian), Lauren worked in marketing and communications for a technology start-up involved in online education. While there, she learned how to juggle the many tasks necessary to make a start-up successful. She was responsible for the daily communications with current and prospective clients, and led a small team in developing marketing campaigns. Lauren brings this essential skill-set back to her original passion, education.

Today, Lauren firmly believes in the importance of tutoring and one-on-one educational services for students seeking to reach their full potential in school and beyond. With her remarkable range of education experience, Lauren is thrilled to serve as an advocate for both students and parents at Score Academy's Broward County locations.

Lauren lives with her husband in Fort Lauderdale. A self-proclaimed foodie, Lauren enjoys exploring new restaurants, although she is still a novice in her own kitchen!

Jury Robinovitz, the Chief Wellness Officer for all the Score Academy locations, is responsible for spreading love and wellbeing to all. Jury is a Whippet/Labrador mix that was rescued by Jason from Miami Pet Rescue in May 2009. Before joining the family, Jury spent her time tied to a tree, fostering families of ticks and fleas. She is now tick and flea free and spends her days traveling from Center to Center with Jason, playing with all the kids and licking anyone who shows her affection.
