Selective coaching for
serious writers.
I work with a small number of students each year on college admissions essays, application strategy, and standardized test preparation. If you're looking for thoughtful, rigorous guidance — not a content mill — you're in the right place.
What I offer.
Personal statement and supplemental essays. From first brainstorm to final draft.
For students applying to multiple selective schools. Essay sequencing, narrative positioning, revision.
Reading comprehension, grammar, rhetoric. Strategy and pacing.
How I work.
I teach students to think more clearly and write more precisely. That means honest feedback, careful revision, and a process that respects the student's own voice. No templates, no ghostwriting, no shortcuts.
"Clarity is the highest form of style."
- Clear, personalized instruction
- Careful attention to student voice
- High standards without pressure
- Professional communication
