I thought this was going to be hard to do and he made it seem so easy and my essay turned out great. After my first meeting with him I was very excited about writing my college essay. I love the fact that Robert Pincus is a college professor and that he has personal experience with his students and his own children. Robert brings a fresh perspective to writing and is quick to redirect and ask questions to get more information in perfect detail for the essay. I would highly recommend him!

Emily guided me through the revision process of my writing and helped clarify my drafts for a supplemental college essay. She provided thoughtful feedback and kept prompt communication to meet my deadline. I highly recommend Emily if you need assistance for your college essay.

Angela was very responsive, she made herself available under a tight time pressure, she helped my daughter feel confident in her college essay, she made important grammar corrections as well as structural recommendations to the essay. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help with their college essay. I did not use her for anything else but I feel that she has a lot to offer in this process and will use her again if necessary, thank you Angela!
