That’s not all
Each package is like an essay workshop, where your child gets all the essay tips they need to succeed. Here’s how the process works.
Step 1
First, your child has a get-to-know-you discussion with professional essay coach Stacey Lichter. Parents can choose to be present for this conversation, or not. The initial conversation helps your child explore their passions and strengths and determine how they fit in with their dream school. The writing process can begin with brainstorming essay topics, or jumping right into reviewing drafts and discussing essay writing strategies, all while keeping deadlines and due dates on the radar.
Step 2
Once we build a strong base, your child receives a series of customized coaching sessions to help them craft effective essays. As the working relationship between us becomes more comfortable, we will discuss your child’s goals, dreams, and determine which schools will be the best fit to help those dreams come to fruition through a series of carefully selected matching strategies.
Step 3
Finally, we ensure your child is on track to meet application deadlines. The last leg of the essay package focuses on the finer details, such as making sure each essay highlights the aspects of your child that are most important to each admissions committee. The perfect application has a through-line that provides a complete picture of the applicant within the given word count.
Writing college application essays doesn’t have to be stressful. We’ll guide you through it step by step.
