Marilyn has helped my son develop more cohesive college application essays. At times when he is stuck with an essay, she helps him by asking questions which would unlock his flow of writing. She is flexible, prompt and very efficient with the time that is billed. I am very happy with the help my son got from Marilyn and highly recommend her.

With so many different schools, essays, and guidelines, Marilyn was extremely helpful in keeping track of deadlines and helping me plan ahead. Marilyn was always easy to reach through email, text message, and SMS and was willing to work together on any platform (even remotely through Google Docs). I'd recommend Marilyn to anybody looking for direction through the difficult college application process.
