Study techniques
At Successful Solutions, we believe:
1.
All students learn differently from one another – education is individual.
3.
Skills like time-management and organization drive success in and out of the classroom.
2.
Manipulatives, models, and technology are tools to maximize understanding.
4.
Every student deserves the opportunity for academic success.

Fall 2025
Registration is open for virtual tutoring only
I have made the extremely difficult decision to shift our offerings for tutoring to online only. Jon and I are preparing to relocate to the Philadelphia area to be close to 2 of our adult children and their families as we await the birth of our 5th grandchild in August. While we will very much miss tutoring in person, time is passing too quickly for us to delay this move any longer.
If you are interested in tutoring via Zoom or Google Meet this fall, let us know. If not, if anything comes up during the school year, we are available. Just contact Successful Solutions by email (kathyells84@gmail.com) or by cell phone (978-595-2590).
We are leaving the door open to the possibility of reopening in-person tutoring in Amesbury and expanding to the Philadelphia area at a later date, but while we relocate and settle ourselves in a new area, virtual tutoring will be available for middle and high school students. Our college essay virtual tutoring will continue as well.
To all of the families we have worked with over these 8+ years, we wish you all well. Keep in touch. We love to hear what our former students are doing.
Best,
Kathy and the Successful Solutions Team
