HOW WE WORK
As professional educators, we care deeply about the success and self-confidence of our students, and we believe that working one-on-one is the best way to achieve desired results. This complex process can be emotionally overwhelming so we break it down into manageable tasks while providing expert strategic advice and encouragement. Our results and testimonials speak for themselves.
Please set up a no-obligation phone or Zoom meeting to share your student's college goals and get to know us more.

College Advising
We help parents and students navigate the college preparation and admission process, ensuring that the best, and most appropriate, academic, extracurricular, and social-emotional learning decisions are made. We meet students' needs, whether it is a four-year roadmap, essay instruction, or individual coaching.
The key to a successful process is having a supportive, encouraging, relationship and providing a clear outline of the expectations, which includes comprehensive management of the admission process, year-by-year, and timeline management and deadlines of standardized testing, college applications, and financial aid applications.
