Vanessa F.

1 essay lesson

I told him that I would write down all the bulleted list and send to him to check before I start to write the whole essay. However, he refused to give me any ideas or discuss the essay together. He said to me that he would only read and edit the essay after I finish. He keeps saying that this is ILLEGAL and UNETHICAL! But I told him that my school writing center tutors also do the same thing.

I worked with Brooke to craft my college admission essay recently. She was able to transform my relatively mundane essay into a spectacular narrative. She is full of innovative ideas and exceptional at helping students present their stories in the best way possible. Brooke was very efficient and worked very thoroughly and patiently with me to develop my essay and I'm thankful for her hard work. She's very knowledgeable and talented at what she does.
