I do not believe in flattening a student's voice into generic admissions language. The goal is not to manufacture a persona. The goal is to help students think clearly, write honestly, and present themselves well.
That means direct feedback, thoughtful revision, and a process built around quality rather than churn.
- Clear, personalized instruction
- Careful attention to student voice
- High standards without pressure
- Professional communication
