Mike communicated every aspect of the tutoring process with us from our time schedule to the details of the ACT and his follow-up was 100%. Mike taught the ACT content clearly, explained the many ways to navigate the test through managing time, etc. He instilled confidence in my daughter that she would not have attained without him. Thank you.”

Elaine E., Parent

“David was wonderful! He was able to meet with our son Max, assess his strengths and weaknesses, and work with him to improve his ACT scores. His score increase was much larger than we were expecting! I can see David’s work with Max carrying over into his classes as well, as he is now getting As in English, while he has never done so before.”

Amanda B., Parent

“Drew is the best tutor out there! He knows and understands the SAT test inside and out and has been able to communicate the best working strategies to help Robert achieve his best score. Drew’s personality is a perfect fit for our shy son too. He is outgoing, enthusiastic and encouraging about Robert’s potential while also being realistic and sincere. Also, he is patient which Robert appreciates the most.”

Karen L., Parent

“Nat Alderman. Nat was excellent. Very accommodating to our schedule. Brian wanted to improve his English SAT score and we only had a few weeks before the next SAT session. Nat focused on the areas that Brian needed help. Nat gave excellent strategies for understanding the readings and taking the test. He also spent part of a session going over a few items in Math. Brian already had an excellent math score, but he hoped to improve it a little if possible.”

Karen A., Parent

“I thought Sahana was a very strong tutor and was able to quickly relate to Katie. Each session she was focused and pushed Katie to work hard and make improvements in all areas of study. She understands the mind of a 17-year-old girl and was able to make each session fun. She was very supportive of Katie and encouraged her to believe in her abilities and helped to increase her confidence.”

Shelley W., Parent

“If every teacher could implement Michael's teaching methods, our schools would produce confident students who achieve to the best of their ability. He assessed Lillian's learning style and tailored her sessions based on that profile. He provided in-depth reports after lessons and promptly sent the homework for the following week. Michael was completely invested in Lillian’s learning and improvement.”

Jeanie O., Parent

“Jonathan was an incredible source of help, support, and encouragement for Clay since the beginning of 2020, throughout a roller-coaster of a process due to COVID.

Many thanks to Susan!”

John Merrill

“Summit’s approach to test prep is informed, thoughtful and principled. Their tutors turn down the temperature on a very stressful part of the college process, helping students keep it in perspective. They keep abreast of trends and changes so students are in the best possible position when they sit for the tests. In this wide field of test prep companies, Summit is a standout!”

Val E., Parent

“As the parent of two twenty-somethings and a high school sophomore, I should feel comfortable about the college admissions and testing process. Not so. I recently attended a free info session on the redesigned SAT hosted by Summit Educational Group. The presentation was informative, relevant and extremely helpful for any parent with a high school student entering the college process. It is especially relevant for those in the class of 2017 who have the option of taking the old and the new SAT. The folks at Summit are on the frontlines–garnering information, vetting it and relaying it back to ensure the success of their students.”

Ann Casella

“It is important for us as educators to understand the changes to the SAT. Brian gave a thoughtful and compressive overview to our faculty. They greatly appreciated the historical background as well as comparative information he provided. They now feel in a much better place to help support students as they counsel them on what college entrance exams they should pursue.”

Dr. John Buckey, Principal

“Michael Dean of the Summit Educational Group, came to our school and delivered a presentation on the new SAT that was comprehensive, very informative and both reassuring and encouraging. He deftly walked us through the background of the SAT and explained in clear language the various changes occurring within the test and the intent behind them. Both parents and students left the presentation with a greater understanding of the new test and expressed that attending was well worth their time. Thank you, Michael. Great Job!”

Edward Sembor

“The “New SAT” presentation delivered by Michael Dean was just what our Guidance Department and Administration needed to help us sort out how the new SAT will impact us and how we should counsel our students. Michael’s detailed knowledge of both the ACT and the SAT – including the upcoming changes to the SAT – allowed him to clarify the choices in front of us in a completely unbiased way. We are in a better place now to make a decision thanks to his help.”

Charlie Drane, Vice Principal

“The simulated “real test” environment for taking practice tests (for free) is a very practical and important feature of signing up with Summit. The office staff is responsive and helpful and the course materials are excellent.”

Lee L.

“Just wanted to let you know that Mark got his ACT scores back and we are beyond thrilled!!! He received a composite score of 32! In English and in Reading he received 33s, in Math a 29, and a 31 in Science! He enjoyed working with Zack and it clearly made a huge difference during his final push to prepare for the test!”

Tracie N., Parent

“My tutor Jono was really encouraging and patient. He helped me a lot and improved my performance in both testing and in school! My confidence was definitely boosted.” Screen reader support enabled.”

Jillian L.

“As is always the case with Summit, we got so much more than we had hoped for when we asked Charlie to speak. His thorough, calm, and detailed presentation put the SAT changes into historical perspective and drilled down to allow parents to understand how the new test will be scored. Most importantly, he confirmed our recommendations, allowing our families to leave the presentation feeling much calmer than when they arrived — always the sign of a successful parent program. We would recommend this presentation to any interested school or organization seeking to inform and calm concerned parents.”

Amy Selinger

“The topic of standardized testing is often the most intimidating and overwhelming aspect of the college process. Charlie [Hearn’s] knowledge on all aspect of these tests is inexhaustible, yet he present only the most relevant information thorough a clear, efficient, and effective message, leaving families both comfortable and confident. He also understands high school student and the pressures they face.”

David Lyons

“The Summit presentation on the New SAT was clear, concise, and honest. All of the questions I had about the new SAT going into the presentation were not only answered, but they were discussed in terms both teacher and student impact which was very helpful.”

Courtney Miller

“What drew me to Summit over other test prep organizations was the ability to do specialized tutoring and to customize programs to meet my students’ needs. Also, Summit continues to work to develop us as educators. We are offered opportunities to learn new skills and get additional training.”

Tonya P.

Terri D.

“I have an incredible amount of autonomy in my teaching. I am able to truly customize every program for each student.”

Plus, I get to work with caring, insightful Summit colleagues who are always willing to brainstorm over any question or problem I pose. I also get to use Summit’s well-written materials to help test-prep students. I feel supported in doing my best.”

Elaine H.

“I love when I hear from students after test results come out, and they are happy with their scores. It’s exciting to see our hard work together pay off in such measurable ways, but also to see the effects that cannot be measured, like increased confidence and decreased test anxiety.”

Michelle H.

“As a Director of College Counseling, I find it reassuring to know that when a family engages Summit, we can rest assured that you and your team will work with this student and his or her parents with the utmost care, concern and professionalism.”

Michael Denning

“There are many “test prep” organizations available, but none that are as appropriate for and focused on the needs of our students as that of Summit Educational Group. Our students and their families benefit from the individualized approach.”
