Educational Support, Tailored to Every Learner

At Sunshine Learning, we provide personalized educational support and admissions guidance for students from Pre-K through 12th grade while helping families navigate the private school admissions process with confidence. Our team works closely with students to build confidence, organization, executive functioning skills, and strong academic habits that support long-term success both inside and outside the classroom.

We partner with families every step of the way, whether that means preparing for school admissions, strengthening foundational academic skills, supporting learning differences, or helping students grow into capable, confident learners. As Sunshine Learning continues to grow, we are expanding our support through Ascent, our new and evolving college admissions division, designed to guide high school students and families through the college application process.

Our Families Love Us

"I am thrilled with my son’s progress in developing his communication skills. Ashley was able to assess his needs and find the tutors that work well with his personality. I highly recommend Ashley and will continue to work with her and her team."

"He is SO so so excited! He is begging for another tutoring time! Good problem to have! Seriously, they both called me in their room at 9pm last night begging for more tutoring time and talking about how much they loveeeee tutoring. HUGE change from this time last year! Thanks to you!!!"

"We've sure enjoyed our sessions with Ms. Kathleen. My daughter asks about her multiple times a week, and literally runs to the car when she arrives. She is punctual, professional, and very obviously truly cares about her progress and her as a little cute human. She can tell!"
