About Yang


Bio

Hi, I'm Yang, a student at Cornell University majoring in Biology. Having recently gone through the college application process myself, I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to translate your experiences and identity into a compelling essay. I was accepted to Cornell after crafting applications that drew on my unique background as an Asian American, a researcher, and a community volunteer, and I'm excited to help other students do the same.

Hi, I'm Yang, a student at Cornell University majoring in Biology. Having recently gone through the college application process myself, I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to translate your experiences and identity into a compelling essay. I was accepted to Cornell after crafting applications that drew on my unique background as an Asian American, a researcher, and a community volunteer, and I'm excited to help other students do the same.

My approach to essay tutoring is rooted in storytelling. The best college essays don't just list accomplishments; they reveal who you are. Whether you're working on your Common App personal statement or school-specific supplementals, I'll guide you from brainstorming all the way through final edits, ensuring every word reflects the real you.

I'm detail-oriented, patient, and deeply committed to helping each student feel confident throughout what can be a stressful process. My goal is simple: to make sure your application sounds like you at your best. I'd love to help you tell your story. Feel free to reach out!

College Counseling

College Counseling

Whether it be creating the perfect college list or writing an activities list that captures the attention of admissions officers, I've been through the process and understand what it takes to make an application stand out. Going through the admissions process myself, I've been admitted to multiple universities, including Cornell, UVA, and Emory, and I've also helped others gain admission to elite institutions. I am excited to help you craft your very own personal narrative, and my extensive experience navigating college admissions has given me the abilities to help you along your journey in making a successful college application.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I've worked with high school seniors navigating their college applications, streamlining their thoughts into narratives that help them stand out in front of college admission officers. From word flow to content structure, every piece needs to come together to form a cohesive and impactful essay that brings the students' words to life on paper. I know this is a stressful journey, and my goal is to make sure you feel supported throughout the process.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I know how overwhelming the college application process can feel, especially when you are trying to turn years of experiences, activities, and goals into one strong essay. As a Cornell student who has gone through the admissions process myself, I understand how important it is to create an application that feels personal, organized, and genuine. I love helping students brainstorm meaningful story ideas, shape their essays into clear narratives, and make sure their own voice comes through. My goal is to make the process feel less stressful while helping each student build essays that truly reflect who they are.
