My primary focus is helping university applicants with strategizing, planning, and revising their application essays.

*Putting Your Mind At Ease*
The college application process can be immensely daunting, for students and parents alike. If you work with me, I will:
(a) break the workload down into achievable pieces;
(b) support you as you tackle the challenges of each essay; and
(c) help you make meaningful progress every session.
Our first meeting will identify themes for the personal statement; by our third meeting, we'll have a draft and a comprehensive action plan.
*Matriculations at Top-Tier Universities*
Each year I provide full-service support to seven or eight rising seniors, as well as to transfer and graduate-school applicants. Over the past five years students I’ve assisted have matriculated at:
- Amherst
- BU (Kilachand)
- Brown
- CalTech

Education and Qualifications
school: | Yale + Tufts |
certified: | |
Over the past twenty-five years, I’ve taught at leading schools. I acquired my zest for writing at Yale, where I graduated with highest honors, in the top five percent. I subsequently earned a master's degree in education from Tufts. In addition to classroom teaching, I’ve been a Teacher Consultant for the National Writing Project and served for five years as a Mentor for the Fulbright Commission, a renowned non-profit established by international treaty. This coming spring I will complete my Certificate in Writing with UC Berkeley Extension.
A veteran classroom teacher, I have led courses for teachers with the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I am also a seasoned debate coach with a highly successful squad.
