College App Essays

Do you need help with writing college application essays? A good writing coach can help you to come up with a memorable essay that captures attention. Because stakes are high and time is limited, students often become overwhelmed and suffer from writer’s block. That’s where a college essay writing coach can help with:

  • Brainstorming original and engaging ideas for college essays
  • Narrowing a topic
  • Developing memorable imagery
  • Linking anecdotes to strengths
  • Eliminating trite phrases and stale metaphors
  • Fighting wordiness that weakens writing
  • Developing a strong, active writing style
  • Editing for length
  • Proofing to avoid last-minute errors

My approach is to engage in discussion, have you write a first draft, and then work together over Google docs to help you improve. I help you craft college essays and personal statements that are creative and compelling. Working with a coach also helps you to keep on track and avoid the stress that comes with deadlines.
