Literally owe my life to her help

At first, I was so confused about how to write my supplemental essays for my college applications. However, Tara made sure to help me along the way and even went as far as researching the school to find additional information for the "Why this school" essays. She is extremely knowledgable and makes sure to not waste time on trivial things. She was able to help me with 4 essays in one lesson once.

Amazing tutor!

I was struggling with my personal essay, and was 4 days away from my deadline for college applications. Tara did a phenomenal job in helping me completely rewrite my essay and edit it in 2.5 hours. I cannot stress enough that she is very different from all other tutors that I've worked with in the past. Tara knows exactly how to make your personal essay stand out to admissions officers from her experience in interviewing them, which can be a very powerful insight. Tara is the best tutor I've ever worked with, and I cannot thank her enough.

College essay help

She did a very good job at helping me know what colleges look for and how to write an essay that sticks out to admissions officers. Her brainstorming exercises were also very insightful and helped me expand on ideas about what to write about. I plan on booking again

Excellent Tutor ! Highly Recommend !

Tara helped my senior son with his college application from brainstorming of ideas to making sure his deadlines were met. Her methodological approach from writing the essay to final content was very impressive. He had a total of 5 lessons and he always spoke very highly of her. She definitely took my anxiety away, and I would highly recommend her!

Admission Essay Tutor of the Year!

As an older college student, it is not always easy finding a tutor or editor that you are able to gel with. Tara is an exceptional tutor for admission essays. The rapport that she built with me throughout our sessions was incredible! I felt like I was jumping through flaming hoops with the help of Tara's magical editing skills. I remembered showing my college English professor an essay that Tara and I had previously worked on. He said, "John, this essay is beautiful." The essay was so compelling that he started crying! Yes you heard that right! The essay resonated not only with him but with me as well. With Tara's help, I was able to transform a somewhat generic essay to an authentic masterpiece that I can't stop reading. I knew I had found the right person to work with! Along the way, she has also helped me gain a deeper appreciation for creative writing -- something I hope to continue pursuing at my new university. Before I started working with her, I was reluctant to put trust into someone who would be looking over my essays -- having had a few unpleasant experiences in the past. She is kind, polite, and was super understanding of my busy schedule. I learned and gained so much confidence in my writing skills after working with her. Couldn't have asked for anyone better to work with. Thank you Tara!
