“Admissions officers are really looking for something they can’t learn from other parts of the application, the slice-of-life stories. It’s the authenticity of the kid’s voice that makes an essay stand out.”
Wow Writing Workshop has successfully guided thousands of students from blank pages to memorable and effective college application essays using a simple, intuitive, online program.
As a Wow Certified Essay Coach, after an initial brainstorming session over Zoom, I’ll guide you through the month-long 10-step program that breaks the essay into small, manageable chunks. The system is carefully designed to capture the student’s own voice and story, and to take the stress and anxiety out of the task.
Rate is $700 for one Common Application or personal statement.

“We always said when I was an admissions officer, we want it to be so personal to the student that you couldn’t put anyone else’s name on that essay and have it still be true about that other student.”
One-on-one coaching and project management for students. We’ll begin with information gathering and one or two brainstorming sessions over Zoom, and then we’ll progress through as many drafts as necessary to perfect a compelling and original essay and all supplemental materials for up to three college applications.
Rate is $1,500.
