Exceptional, meticulous, dedicated, and most importantly, supportive
We have a high-school senior who is applying to nine top-ranked colleges. From our very first consultation with Jon, we knew that he would be the perfect writing coach. He has been extremely effective in helping our son organize and catalyze his essays while simultaneously keeping him on-track and focused. Words cannot describe how satisfied I am with the quality of the essays Jon has helped my son produce. I am incredibly thankful that we found him and would recommend his writing sessions with flying colors. Thank you, Jon!

Dedicated, detail oriented, & accommodating!
Dedicated, detail oriented, & accommodating! I am technically a mature student from the U.S who decided to go back to school and Jonathan worked with me on my personal essay, cv, as well as the application process over the course of a few months. He helped me navigate the application process for a university in South Africa which I am happy to say I now attend! He was meticulous in the work we did together and always made me feel heard and understood when it came to how I wanted to be perceived as an academic. When it finally came down to handing in all my materials I felt very confident in that they were the best possible quality thanks to Jonathan’s assistance. I would highly recommend him as a tutor for a student of any age.

Great Lessons and teacher
Jonathon does a great job of extracting your stories to best address the prompts on essays. He also did a phenomenal job of providing valuable feed back and making the language of my essays very coherent and readable. These are honestly some of the best essays I have written, very concise yet powerful essays that pack a lot of information into a strict word count. Jonathan was a great teacher and taught me some life long lessons in essay writing. I’m a better writer now because of him.

Exceeded My Expectations Greatly
Jonathan is one of the most well rounded tutors I know. I asked Jon to help me write transfer essays to schools such as Penn and Villanova and they were more than fantastic. He exceeded my expectations greatly and I am so appreciative for all the work he helped me accomplish. I have a very busy schedule and Jonathan was always willing to work with me timing wise which I can not thank him enough for. If you need a tutor to help you with college decisions or applications, THIS is the man you are looking for! I felt very confident handing in my final essays and transfer applications, all thanks to Jonathan!

Effective and professional, a great experience!
We worked on my graduate school application essays. Not only was he very aware of the kinds of responses different prompts were looking at, he also has effective ways of helping me to find my unique perspective and voice for each essay. He was great with turnaround as the deadline approached. He was professional and accommodating at the same time. I had to reschedule a session once, and he was very understanding.

Very Understanding and Hardworking
I'm a freshman in college applying to try to transfer into a couple of universities. Mr. K. helped me work through my essays from thinking of ideas to finalizing edits. I truly felt as if every single one of our classes worked very efficiently and we got so much done so quickly! I hope my applications go well, and I'm confident my essays won't be a problem!
