He addressed all of my worries. Mr Kevin is an incredibly knowledgeable and efficient tutor - he helped me transform my blunt, and disorganized essay into one that successfully describes the student in the best way possible! In a way, that I myself, ironically, couldn’t have. Not only did he give me substantial feedback on my essay, but he told me where to improve, and helped me refine the structure of my essay, making it flow much better than it use to.

Razi has helped form my scrapbook essay ideas into college essay masterclasses. I won’t lie: sometimes his extended comments weren't very pleasant. For one of my Brown essays, I went through five weeks of meetings before finally having my final draft. Even though it was a terrible experience to keep revising and editing, I was proud of the work I did, shown in an essay that helped adequately demonstrate my interest in the school.

Prior to the tutoring session, Danny requested a copy of my son's essay so that he could get a sense of his writing and decide on how to best proceed. That worked out very well because he was able to jump right into the essay. Not only is Danny is a great writer, but he is able to teach well. My son's essay lacked focus so Danny helped him stay on topic and gave him guidance for future writings. He also encouraged my son by pointing out the strengths in the essay.
