    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!

    "My daughter’s SAT grades are in and she scored 590 on the Critical Reading section, up from 440 last time. We are THRILLED!!! She is still taking the test in November but the pressure is hopefully off. Again, I want to thank you SO much for all your help! It clearly made a huge difference."

    "Michelle patiently worked with me to improve my SAT and ACT scores. After learning more about how I learn, we decided to focus on improving my reading skills. Her tricks worked! I only took the ACT again, and I did much better. I am also doing better in English!"

    "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!"

    "Honestly, you were perfect for my daughter. You pushed her where I couldn’t, and gave her encouragement when mine didn’t matter. The college essay was key. And while she may have dragged her feet…all of her applications were done and submitted early and in time for early action. I think kids wait too long and don’t concentrate on it early enough, then when the time comes, everyone is scrambling around. We came to you via word of mouth, and continue to pass your name on to others."
