Tara is wonderful!
She has been a HUGE help for our son who struggles with writing. She’s extremely thorough making sure we’re covering all writing prompts for all the different colleges that my son wants to apply to and guiding him through the writing process. Today, my son said to me “I don’t even know what I would have done without Tara’s help and my writing is so much better because of her” after their lesson. So glad we found her! :)

I highly recommend Tara
I was extremely lucky to find Tara to help my brother with his college application essays. She worked with him in applying to private universities and UCs. The process can be very overwhelming for applicants and her guidance eased down the process. My brother wrote the starting drafts and she focused in brainstorming, editing and refining the ideas of the essays. Saying that Tara was an immense help would fall short for the quality of work that she provided. She has a gift for writing, storytelling and clarifying ideas. The help that she provided allowed my brother’s essays to shine among the strongest applicants. Tara’s help enabled him to receive a full ride scholarship to a top 5 university in the nation. To say the least, we are forever thankful for her help and would consider anyone receiving her help extremely lucky. Thank you Tara!

Knowledgeable Tutor!
Tara has helped me patiently with writing an application into Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. During the induction ceremony in front of hundreds of students in the auditorium my story was chosen by the Dean to read aloud to all of the students. I was very proud.

Fantastic tutor!
Tara helped me so much with my college essay in only one hour. She helped me structure the essay while still feeling like it was my voice. I feel much more capable of writing this now -- I would highly recommend!

Tara gave my son some great ideas.
We had hired a college counselor but I could tell my son wasn’t getting what he needed from her. We found Tara here on Wyzant and in the first lesson she already gave him some great suggestions and he is feeling better about his essays.

Change of perspective
Until you find someone that really knows what you need to do, you will waste money and time. With Tara, she helped my son hone in on his strengths and guide him with feedback to building out a top notch essay (yes we will keep working with her). If you take education and entry into higher end colleges seriously, you will be very happy to have someone like Tara help your daughter/son.

A truly outstanding tutor for college essays!
Tara seems to be the ideal tutor for my daughter. She seems to be a deep listener, making sure that she understood the challenge my daughter was facing, her goals, the progress she made so far, etc. Then she seemed to offer excellent advice to help my daughter through a number of essay-writing challenges with great patience and thoughfulness.
