essay writing
My son is a high school senior applying to colleges this year, and he hasn’t been very motivated to write until his lesson with Gigi. After meeting Gigi, I could see sparks in his eyes. He was genuinely happy to have met someone as cool and inspiring as Gigi! Gigi’s experience and thoughtful coaching have made such a difference. My son told me he wants to continue working with Gigi on his college essay, which is truly amazing to hear. Motivating him to write has always been difficult, but seeing him want to write is life-changing. Thanks to Gigi’s encouraging coaching style for inspiring him and helping him rediscover his passion through writing.

Kind and caring
My tutor was amazing! She really listened to me and tried to understand my story. She read my past essays and made a detailed outline to help me succeed. As an international student, the time differences were never a problem. The lesson times are perfect and flexible, and I felt supported and confident the whole time.

Extremely helpful!
The essays we first submitted to GiGi were nowhere near ready for college applications, and GiGi was extremely helpful. She helped my daughter think through questions to help her narrow her theme and focus. I am so thankful for her help!

An Outstanding Teacher with Unique Skills
GiGi helped our 8th-grade daughter with an essay assignment by teaching her how to make her writing more engaging for the reader. GiGi offered relatable, creative, and thoughtful edits that transformed a basic essay into something special and changed how our daughter approaches writing. She is wonderful! A+++

Attentive and Kind Tutor
GiGi was such a sweet and thoughtful tutor! She was incredibly attentive to all of my questions and the edits I needed. I was so impressed by how quickly she responded—always getting back to me within the same day with her edits. Her patience made the whole process so much smoother, and she even helped me cut down character counts (which is no small feat). I truly appreciated her support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsive, and skilled tutor.
