Testimonials

 

"I know I've told you how much we appreciate everything you have done for us, but I want to say it again.  Gaby is happy and in a wonderful school and it's all thanks to you.  You do more than just your job, you care about your kids and it shows.  Had the application process been left up to me, I'm not sure the results would have been the same.  Gaby's future is up to her, but you have given her the opportunity for a great start."

"When Susan Smith (Bedford Educational Consulting) says, "Oh, don't stress. This process is so much easier then you think. Just keep spending quality time with your wonderful child," she means it, but the reality is that SHE made this process easy and we could not have gotten through this stressful time without her. 

Susan's warm-hearted and understanding manner with young adults (and parents) moves this process along quickly and smoothly. Susan knows completely what it takes to get this job done. And I am forever grateful and continue to spend quality time with my son, as she suggested.

Respectfully,

"I definitely could not have gotten my college applications done without Susan Smith. She helped me put together my essays and get all the information I needed to get the applications done right. She made it easy because she is kind and easy to talk to and she is interested in who you are as a person.

Ms. Smith is not only your college counselor but your friend and someone you would go to and talk things over. She really wants to see you succeed and get into the college that's the right fit for you and she goes out of her way to make sure that happens."

The application process for college can be incredibly daunting; with the help of Susan Smith applying was easier than I could have
imagined.  She was invaluable for my essay writing, even helping me get an “essay based scholarship” at one of the institutions I applied to. She paces the process so well that nothing seems overwhelming.  A time that was so stressful for all of my friends was relatively effortless for me, which was undoubtedly due to her help.

Four years later she is currently helping me apply to graduate schools and I couldn’t be happier.

Both of my children have worked with Susan in the college application process. My children, a boy and a girl, have completely different personalities, aspirations, and needs.  By providing individualized suggestions and strategies, Susan was able to capture the essence of both of our children and explore their individual interests and abilities. Her motivational style and positive humor nurtured them along the very intimidating path of the college application process. As a school social worker I feel uniquely qualified to assess the qualities of professionals working with students. It is without reservation that I recommend Susan’s services.

Susan Smith has ushered my three children through the complicated, confusing and often mind numbing experience of applying to college. She has done it with grace and ease. More importantly, my kids have come home from their sessions with her wearing smiles, not tears.

Our family is a great lab for judging Susan's talent because each of my children are very different from each other in terms of academics, interests and the kinds of colleges where they wanted to apply. She helped place one of our kids in a large university, where she is happy with every aspect of college life; another in a small, demanding liberal arts college, and a third who is in the process of applying to very rigorous universities that match his interest in pre-med, athletics and the arts!

She has helped my children narrow their focus to schools where they will not only thrive academically, but socially as well. She knows many colleges that are excellent choices but not necessarily name brands. She has gently steered them in the right direction but also respects their opinions and desires, as well as my pocketbook. All my kids agree that they could not have gone through the college process as smoothly as they did without her guidance. I certainly would not have been able to.

Susan is the ultimate professional, but she is also a warm hearted, funny person who loves students and takes a serious interest in their success.
