    "Going into the application process, I looked at my essay questions with disbelief, confusion and stress–I could not understand how they could possibly get done not only on time, but well. My mom told me she had scheduled an appointment with a woman who helps out applicants, and I was a bit hesitant at first. When we first saw her, I knew it was going to be good–she was friendly and cheery, but 'laid down the law' when I needed it. I don’t know what I would have done without her help!"

    My daughter and I set a goal to have all college/Common App essays completed by the end of the summer leading into senior year. Getting a kid to sit down, focus, and put the time and energy into writing thoughtful essays during the summer is no easy task, but Michelle helped set a timeline and it likely wouldn’t have happened without her support! Together they stuck to the deadlines they set, brainstormed, and created multiple essays I know my daughter felt very proud of. Michelle knows her audience and is engaging, fun, yet also tough when necessary. I will be recommending her to friends with rising seniors and highly recommend her to all of you checking out her website. Thank you, Michelle!

    Michelle related to my rising senior in a way that made him actually want to express himself in an essay. During a really stressful time, Michelle earned his trust, tapped into his strengths and brought some much-needed humor.

    "We are very pleased that our son was accepted to almost all the schools he applied to and we are thrilled that he will be attending SUNY Binghamton in September. We could not be happier. We believe we owe it in no small part to the essay Ms. Sale helped Jonathan to write. He is a very bright kid with great ideas. I hired Ms. Sale to help Jonathan because I thought he needed some help in “tightening” his thoughts to produce a competitive essay. I could not help him because I do not know what colleges look for in their essay… but we all know they do look at them! I strongly recommend that other parents consider working with Ms. Sale for their college-bound students. We certainly got our money’s worth!"
