ESSAY COACHING
COLLEGE ESSAY COACHING: COMMON APP ESSAY PACKAGE
This package is designed for the student who desires one-on-one support in crafting a compelling 650-word Common Application essay.
I meet with a student for 60 or 90 minutes in person or over Zoom, 1-3 times per week, until their Common App essay is complete. The student receives access to college essay-writing resources such as tips and tricks, activity sheets, and graphic organizers, and supportive communication and guidance via email and text between Zoom meetings, as desired.
**Please contact me to schedule a clarity call, during which we will discuss your student's goals and needs.**
- Because the final weeks before a college application due date can require an increase in the number and length of sessions for all of my clients, time is more precious! I will request an accelerated service fee for coaching that begins within eight weeks prior to either the student's earliest self-imposed application deadline or the earliest official college application deadline -- whichever situation applies.

COLLEGE ESSAY COACHING AND PRIVATE SCHOOL ESSAY COACHING - HYBRID
This service includes a combination of live coaching via Zoom or in-person sessions and remote editing. For example, you may decide that after a face-to-face brainstorming session, you are ready to delve into draft-writing on your own. At that point, we would switch our method to fully remote essay editing.
Pricing will vary depending on the details of our hybrid coaching relationship.
