    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.

    Michelle worked with my son, and I can honestly say he wrote the best essay of his entire 12 years of school with her help. He got into his top-choice colleges as well, and most importantly, he came away from the process feeling confident and proud of his work.  Michelle has a gift, not just for writing, but for connecting with students and helping them find their authentic voice. I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone navigating the college admissions process.

    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!

    "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!"

    "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."
