One Essay at a Time

“Thank you again and again for your help. I got into 7 colleges and know my essay made the difference!
-- a Lexington (MA) High School student, now attending Tufts University

Getting Started:

If you wish to work with me in person, please call or email to arrange our first meeting. In that first meeting, you can either learn about my services (no charge), or get started (fees begin). FYI--I usually limit student work to 90-minute sessions to eliminate burnout!  (Note, parents are welcome to attend all meetings, but often students work better with me one-on-one!)

If you wish to work with me online, please email to discuss what services you think you might need--help with the topic, reviewing a draft, online edits, short answer help, etc. After we agree to work together, just click on the PayPal button below and pay for your first half or full hour of counsel—and remember to email me your essay if it’s edits we agreed to work on. Note that I reply within 3 days (including weekends/holidays) unless we agree on rush services--$30 extra to have edits in 24 hours, if I am able!

I work quickly so I should be able to accomplish a lot in the time we allot; if you need me to review additional changes you make to your essay later on, you can pay in half-hour allotments. I will never do more work than we agreed to…so no worries that I will send you a bill for overtime!

Among other pointers, I may advise you on ways to:

  • start with the most exciting opening
  • reorganize your essay
  • focus on one theme, while also revealing your best qualities in a way that makes you shine!
    (And if you don’t have a topic, I have multiple “tricks” to pull one out of you!)
