    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.

    "My daughter enjoyed working with you very much and I liked the way you helped her bring her ideas forth and get them down on paper. She did extremely well getting into every college she applied to except being wait listed at one. We are very proud. Thanks again for all your expertise and professionalism.”

    "My son showed his essay to his English teacher, and the college and career advisor at Middletown High School and both thought it was a well written essay. Overall, my son was very pleased with the ‘bootcamp’ and would recommend it. He felt it was better to have the block of time in order to be able to focus solely on the task, and to have Ms. Sale in the room for assistance and immediate feedback. He loved the fact that when the time came to begin the application process, the essay was something he did not have to worry about doing!"

    “Working with Michelle was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She was extremely attentive and helpful. Michelle was always willing to answer a question or a call. She helped me curate ideas for my personal statement and walked me through numerous supplemental essays. With her, I got into all eight schools I applied to, most with significant scholarship awards. Next year, I will be attending my dream school with a large merit scholarship, and I could not have done it without her.”

    "I started to work with Michelle in the fall of 2011. I initially came to her for SAT practice. Michelle really prepped me for the SAT’s by giving me tips and tricks to get more questions correct, and I felt very knowledgeable of the test after my time with her. In addition, the summer before my senior year, I joined Michelle’s workshop to work on my college application essay. I am really glad I joined her class since I got the essay out of the way and I was able to devote all my focus and time to it. With Michelle’s help, I am extremely satisfied with my essay. Also, Michelle helped me with essay writing for my English class in school. In fact, one essay was entered into a competition–and I won!"
