My son has done so well with Karen, and he is able to manage his ADHD and excel at school. She is on top of everything, and she does everything before I have a chance. Takes so much pressure off me and it allows him to get the education he needs, at the pace he needs. She is an amazing teacher, and I don’t know where we would be without her.

MB Success Virtual Academy has been a wonderful fit for my son. He is in the 7th grade and needed extra support in several subjects. The academy’s virtual learning environment—with interactive classes, tutoring, and personalized mentorship—has helped him make meaningful progress. His grades have improved, and we’ve also seen a noticeable change in his attitude toward learning and his ability to stay focused. He’s more confident and engaged, and I’m grateful for the support he’s received. I highly recommend MB Success Virtual Academy to families looking for a flexible, supportive learning option.

Mrs. Karen provided exceptional tutoring for my son. We went for math and she quickly discovered he actually was struggling with read and comprehension. Not only did she help him in math but in other areas that he was deficient in taking him all the way back to the basics. Highly recommend!

This program for period of instructions works well. It provides a structured way for my son, who requires a more one-on-one approach, to attain his HS diploma. My son is able to work on his courses from home with the teacher to complete a very self-paced academic curriculum. He will finish and complete his schooling on time and move on to his next set of goals.

MB Success Virtual Homeschool is an amazing school, especially for children with ADHD. It provides a supportive learning environment that helps students navigate their studies, understand lessons at their own pace, and build confidence in their learning journey.

Our son has ADHD and has struggled with his quizzes, tests, and writing assignments for several years. He was always left feeling frustrated. We tried to work with our son's teachers and put other supports in place with no luck. We were so lucky to find Coach Karen when we did! She's a true treasure!! We have been working with her for almost a year, allowing us to form an excellent working relationship - she is easy to talk to, understanding, and patient. During this time, Coach Karen has helped our son improve his comprehension and writing, including his note-taking skills; math has advanced about two grade levels. Grades have continued to improve throughout the year between 4th and 5th grade to the point it's almost straight A's and prompted an invitation to participate in math club at school. This provided a new confidence that he didn't have before. Coach Karen has also coached us on ADHD approaches/practices to help address situations with our son at home or school. In addition to providing a better understanding of how an ADHD mind works and how to incentivize him best to keep him on top with his school work and other tasks. Our son is in a much better place now; he always looks forward to learning new things during his tutoring sessions with Coach Karen! We are extremely thankful for all she has helped our son with and happy to continue working with her. We highly recommend Coach Karen!

Ms. Karen is a wonderful tutor! My son was struggling in 2nd grade. Homework was a battle of wills and it felt like my son could not get his test scores to show how much he actually knew. He was easily frustrated and starting to get very discouraged. Ms. Karen started with reading and giving him tools to focus. By the end of the year, he was slightly above grade level and we've started working on math too. My son always finishes the session feeling positive and I feel armed with games/strategies/help for the rest of the week. I couldn't be more grateful for Ms. Karen and I would highly recommend her!

My 11 year old not only was going into the sixth grade but transferred to private school. After a few weeks we definitely could tell this was going to be a huge adjustment. It was apparent that he did not know how to study and had horrible organization skills. We hired Ms. Karen to mainly help our son in these two areas. Just after a couple of weeks we saw great improvements and his grades are getting better and better. We highly recommend Ms. Karen. Our son really took to her the first day they met and she has transformed our homework life.

Karen M. is not only a master of student assessment and educational techniques; she has also mastered the skill of patience, attentiveness, and confidence building. Her skill set allows her to recognize the student’s strengths and use them in study practices. She is able to explain why a particular study habit does not work well for the particular student and find what works. She was always punctual. The communication with me, about my child, was great. Her knowledge of the 504 plan was an added bonus. She kept me on schedule with email reminders. She was on top of her paper work and schedule. The biggest Kudos I can give her is that my daughter looked forward to her tutoring sessions with Ms. Karen; and, I loved seeing my daughter excited about learning.
