What sets you apart from other college essay consultants?
We get you. As a mother-daughter duo, we know how you’re feeling — both as the parent and as the student. We’ve been through this process ourselves and are excited to help guide you through yours. With a combined thirty years of teaching experience under our belts, our team has significant expertise in helping students find their writing voice and craft strong essays. Our focus on personal narrative storytelling makes us uniquely situated to help your child complete the most personal part of the college application: the essay section.
Do you offer packages?
Yes — in addition to offering hourly college essay consulting sessions, we also offer multi-session packages to students looking to work with us long-term over the course of the college admissions process. To determine the best fit for your child, get in touch here.
Can you guarantee my child admission into their top school?
Nobody can guarantee admission into any one particular school — there are a variety factors involved in the admissions decisions, including GPA, test scores, extracurriculars, teacher recommendations, and geographic information. However, we’ll work tirelessly with your child to craft strong college application essays — both the personal essay and supplemental essays, if required — to maximize your child’s chances.
