Admissions Essay Coaching
You want to get into a good college but…
You don’t know where to start.
Your life doesn't seem to present much material.
You never learned to write.
Everyone’s “mining their trauma” but you don’t have any.
English isn’t your best subject.
English isn’t your first language.
You feel like you don’t have the skills to write something that stands out.
You have trauma but aren’t sure how or if you should write about it.
Your essay needs to stand out, because your grades are iffy.
Every idea you have is cringe.
You’re getting ideas from AI that you edit and then feed back into an AI detector.
The feedback you get from real people might as well be written by AI.
The feedback you get is too generic or specific or just besides the point.
All your friends seem to be exaggerating in their essays.
The essays you’ve read seem deeply corny.
You’re procrastinating.
You’re trying to get ahead of the game

I got the idea for an essay consulting service from seeing how much my students and their parents suffer during the college application season.
When I learned how much some families were paying writing coaches for the type of feedback their kids were getting, I became even more emboldened.
As an English teacher, I work with student writing every day. In my career, I’ve graded over 20,000 papers. I’ve helped countless kids write essays that have helped usher them towards next phase of their lives, be it Harvard, Chicago City Colleges, Oxford, Northwestern, trade school, or the seminary (all true examples).
Most crucially, I am committed to creatively developing student voice, something that genuinely reflects your child’s individuality and makes you proud.
And I also happen to believe it’s something that families shouldn’t have to pay some an arm and a leg for.
My services are offered on a sliding scale. Rates below are a modest reflection of what I’ve seen charged; however there is also an option for you to pay what you choose.
No reasonable offer will be refused.
