Testimonials

Our family is so thankful for The Successful Student! When one of our children was recognized to have a reading-based difficulty, Mrs. Overhiser met with us and worked with us to get my child the help she needs.

I have met Sean [Mattie] to help me with TOEFL exam. He is really a great tutor. He was so patient and was able to determine my weakness areas. Also, Sean gave me a couple of tips which helped me to improve my test-taking skills.

ELL Student

The Successful Student came into our lives at the perfect time.  Mrs. Overhiser is the ‘quintessential’ teacher – intelligently prepared, caring, generous and patient. My son has not only learned, but prospers and fully enjoys learning under her guidance.

Parent of a High School Senior

I used to really dislike having to read and write for school, but over the course of the year I ended up getting very excited for class and whatever new thing we were going to do. I am incredibly blessed to have found a tutor so kind and encouraging and so genuinely excited about what she had to show us.

High School Junior (English Class)

Haverhill, MA

Mark [Clements] takes the time to explain concepts in a way that makes sense. So many pieces fall into place in any session with Mark. He knows the material and takes the time to both listen to the student, and then rephrase anything that might not yet be clear.

College Accounting Student

Mrs. O took my least favorite subject and made it my favorite! She challenges me to be a better student, and I am thankful for influence!

High School Sophomore

I can’t say enough about the level of professionalism, kindness, and dedication my son received at The Successful Student. They were strategic in finding what worked best for my son’s individual needs, which not only helped him with his school work, but, more importantly, helped his self-esteem. I highly recommend this program. Every child deserves this kind of care and attention.
