No-Stress College Application and Essay Coaching

"Just being at a desk with no distractions was very helpful for me, and writing multiple essay topics is good so students are able to switch between ideas."

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.

"Thank you so much for all your help! The experience was great; it streamlined the writing process and was a great environment for brainstorming, I highly recommend it. Taking the course over the summer provides an advantage as well as a sense of relief that you don’t need to worry about school work and college essays simultaneously."

"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."

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!
