During our sessions, we will work on several tactics to help students reach their funding goals. - I will help students proofread and coach them through writing stellar essays that will grab the attention of scholarship committees and help them win dollars. - I will coach them in finding viable options analyzing both fit and competition. - I will also help students write and keep a portfolio of essays that can be used to apply for multiple scholarships. What we do during each session will be informed by the student and where they are at in the process.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have helped many students earn scholarship dollars to help pay for college. In the past admissions cycle, some of my students that got scholarships to fully pay for college included students at NYU, OOS U Mich, Williams and Mary and more. (Fun fact - when you earn more scholarship dollars than you have to pay in tuition - you get that money back and can use it for variable/living expenses.)
