process & results
What you should expect from me:
• Expert writing, editing, and idea generation
• Constructive critiques
• Individualized attention, not the one-size-fits-all approach of most web-based services
• Quick turnarounds
• Professionalism and honesty
• Help lowering the stress of applying to college
What you should not expect from me:
• A guarantee that you will be admitted to your top-choice college
• That I will write your essays for you
How the process works:
During an initial (free) consultation, I meet with the student, with or without a parent. This allows us to see if working together makes sense. I will discuss how I work, and what I expect of students. I will find out students' interests, where they hope to apply, and what their grades and test scores are so far. We can discuss which services might be most appropriate given a student's own writing ability and how far along in the application process he or she is. I will provide references from past clients and examples of my work in the form of "before" and "after" essays. If a personal meeting isn't possible, we can do this initial consultation over the phone or via video chat.
