Write Like a Pro: College Edition

1-on-1 sessions to support your teen

Living in a technology-focused environment, you understandably wish your child to excel in STEM fields. However, even STEM-focused seniors must write multiple essays to showcase their talents to college admissions committees. 

As a veteran Bay Area English teacher, I effectively guide all types of applicants through the essay writing process. My students have been admitted into UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, the University of San Francisco, and many other top universities.

  • I would like to thank you for taking time and showing patience to tutor, coach and motivate my son especially in his senior year. I am glad to tell you that he is graduating with a 4.0 GPA, and at this time, he is committed to UC Riverside for the microbiology program. He also earned the multilingual pin, which officially fulfills his language requirements (English and foreign) for his undergraduate degree. He got admitted to his school's Hall of Fame for speech and debate. In the past few weeks he has also been granted admission to five universities for which he had been on the waiting list.
