I'm a teacher, learning specialist and writing specialist with nearly three decades of experience working with high school and college students. I'm also a Mom to two daughters and a freelance editor. Helping students brainstorm, craft and revise their essays for college applications is one of my favorite roles.

This summer I am working with students on an individual basis. My times are flexible and I am happy to meet at the Helen Kate or Swarthmore Library.
Cost: $200
What you get: Three in-person sessions plus as many revisions via email/google docs as necessary to complete a polished Common App essay. You will also generate some good ideas and starters for your supplemental essays.
