Who We Are
Our Philosophy
Successful Learning supports students in their quest for academic and communicative success. We design our services to meet each students' strengths, needs and learning style. Our services include: speech therapy addressing expressive language, auditory comprehension, speech production and social language skills as well as executive functioning coaching, and tutoring in writing and reading comprehension. Math tutoring has been accessible in the past but is currently unavailable. As experts in language and writing, we are also positioned to facilitate the college essay process. While services are currently being provided online, Successful Learning's in-person services were formerly based in Sharon, MA. We are familiar with local area schools and able to collaborate with educational professionals to provide more comprehensive services for our clients.
It is our belief that with a combination of hard work, motivation, and the right support, all children can be successful and feel good about learning.
