Karen was super helpful for my son in providing excellent feedback and advise to my son on his College Application Essay. She gave him a lot of confidence, she listens carefully and would find the right words to put the ideas in writing. I am scheduling next sessions for the supplemental essays. Thank you Karen!

My daughter and I have been meeting with Karen for over 4 months writing college essays. She is extremely knowledgeable, meticulous, and supportive. We met Karen for the first time and knew that she was the perfect match. Her personality is calming, yet so much fun. Karen is great with time management of tasks to help her students manage all the various aspects as writing essays, along with the other college requirements. We have recommended her to many of our family members and friends. And the best part is that my daughter?s writing skills have improved from all that she has learned from Karen. We cannot imagine the college application process and essay writing without her. The guidance that she provides is simply top ranked.

Karen was such an asset! She helped my daughter with her college personal statement...starting with brainstorming and ending with the final edit. We couldn't have been happier! She was motivating, encouraging, and extremely knowledgeable. A+ experience and we will definitely reach out to Karen again for any future needs!

I had Karen help me with proofreading my personal statement for law school and she was immensely helpful. She takes the time to read and understand your essay and her client. Working with her gave me so much confidence in myself and my work. She is easy to talk to and insightful. You can tell she wants the best for her students and she is there to cheer you on.

I know my daughter Can sometimes be difficult, but Karen made her feel very comfortable. She was very engaging and inspirational, so was very helpful. We will continue working with her weekly.

My daughter was having a hard time organizing a large senior project, I found Karen by a google search and her credentials were exactly what my daughter needed. We were able to get a same day session and Karen was able to spend 1.5 hours with my daughter that evening. She helped tremendously, she was prepared by asking for the project information and also what my daughter had completed to date prior to the session so she was prepared to help right away. My daughter was very pleased and felt so much better after her session with Karen. I highly recommend her!
- Jessica S. from Rochester, MI
I was nearing the deadline to apply to a college, and Karen was so kind to fit me into her busy schedule the same day. She is very experienced and knowledgeable, thoroughly reviewing my essays before submission. She details every step of the way and does not settle for second best but ensures that each aspect is as perfect as possible, securing the greatest chances for admission. Excellent tutor!

Karen clearly articulated to me what was needed to develop a powerful personal statement. Her edits were insightful and helpful. Her advice was incredibly encouraging and she helped me feel confident about my writing, when going into it I was very nervous as it's been years since I've been in school. I highly recommend working with her!

Karen truly goes above and beyond. Karen has been and continues to be a great tutor that I'd definitely recommend. She exceeded expectations. According to my daughter, Karen is always patient and has improved her writing skill and the joy of writing. She's asking for more time with Karen. As a mom, I couldn't ask for more. Thank you!

Karen was quick to respond and rapidly assisted with editing, composition, and grammar for an article I was preparing to submit for publication. It was a pleasure to work with her as we stayed on-point and focused for the entirety of the session. Thanks again!

Karen is helping our daughter with her college applications. Karen is knowledgeable, meticulous, well-experienced, detail-oriented, and a wonderful tutor. Apart from the guidance on application formalities, she engages her students in a very thoughtful way so that kids operate in an anxiety-free mode, and she motivates kids to keep their self-esteem high during this stressful process. We are lucky to have her on our daughter's side.
