No-Stress College Application and Essay Coaching
Parent of University of Colorado, Boulder Student
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!

"The teacher established an excellent rapport with her students, and provided a personalized approach in order to individualize writing needs…she worked with the students using her expertise, capitalizing on their strengths and fine tuning the areas that required attention. The results were wonderful, as our son was extremely successful on the reading and writing components of the ACT exam, as well as being prepared for the rigors of college writing."

"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!"

"I learned so much from the teacher. I actually enjoyed the Bootcamp. My mom couldn’t believe I was the first one there in the morning, because classes were at nine o’clock. At first, I really, really wanted to go to the University of Delaware, but then my essay turned out so good that I applied to Maryland—and got in!"

"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!"
