He really knows how to phrase the things you were thinking about but didn't know how to write on paper. This is very critical when writing a college essay because you want it to sound as natural as possible, but at the same time it has to sound logical and appealing to the reader. Mr. E knows exactly how to do this and he is patient throughout the process.

I needed someone to go over my college application essay and supplements. Paul was the perfect person to do so. Not only was he able to respond in a very timely manner, but he was practically a life-saver. Even if something very last minute came up for him to proofread, he would still be able to do it. He is very knowledgeable and gives very good constructive criticism. Overall, my college essay writing process was much smoother with Paul's help.

Mallory tutored my high school senior as she prepared for her SAT's. In just 5 weeks (once a week tutoring session) Mallory was able to enhance my daughters English/writing skills enough to increase her SAT score by 100 points! Mallory also helped in editing my daughters college essay and my daughter has since been accepted to ALL 9 of the colleges she has applied to! Mallory was always very punctual and got right down to teaching.
