No-Stress College Application and Essay Coaching

"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!"

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.

"I was extremely nervous to begin my personal essay. From the second I began brainstorming with Michelle, I felt comfortable and actually wanted to work on my essay. Whenever I felt stuck, Michelle helped in a way that pushed me to figure it out myself, while never letting me feel like I was in this alone. With her constant support and friendly energy, I was able to write an essay I am proud of and get into the business school of my dreams, the Ross School at the University of Michigan."

"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.”

Michelle has been phenomenal to work with. I am applying to medical schools for the 2025 application cycle and with her help I have crafted well-thought-out responses to every secondary application that I have received. Where Michelle really shines is after you work with her for a month or two and you really get to know each other. After that, it feels more like a friendship. Her writing style is fantastic and as long as you can provide enough information, she can help you craft an incredibly strong response to anything. Michelle truly cares about her clients and this is shown when she goes above and beyond for them. I can text her at any time at a reasonable hour and I can expect a response within the next 30 minutes. She is willing to sit down and review work almost any day and I cant wait to see where I get into with her help!
