No-Stress College Application and Essay Coaching

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.

"My daughter will be attending her first choice for college this fall. I will see you in a year or so for my younger child."

"I was extremely satisfied with the College Application Essay workshop. I applied to eight schools, including Binghamton, James Madison, Penn State, and UMass (Amherst). I was admitted to every school except Binghamton, where I was waitlisted. I really believe that I got into the majority of these schools because of my [unique] essay. Thank you so much for your help and I will definitely recommend you."

"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!"

"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!"
