Crafting Compelling Essays
Your child's essay is a pivotal component of the admissions process for day schools, boarding schools, and colleges. This is a unique opportunity for them to showcase their individuality and narrative.
Our seasoned writing coaches will work closely with your child to craft a compelling essay that stands out. We simplify the writing process, alleviating any anxiety students may have about voice, storytelling, and structure. If your child is ready to put pen to paper, let us guide them!
Interview Success Strategies
For applicants to day schools, boarding schools, and colleges, the admissions interview can be a source of anxiety. However, understanding the interview's purpose can significantly reduce apprehension. Simply put, this conversation is designed to help the admissions team get to know the candidate and determine the right fit for both parties.
We believe in proactive preparation. Our one-on-one coaching sessions equip your child with a toolkit of ideas and talking points, empowering them to present their best selves during the interview.
Mentorship That Matters
As children move from childhood into the teen years, they benefit from the nurturing counsel of a seasoned mentor. We work with students as they advance through the middle and high school years to provide on-going and age-appropriate coaching with a focus on:
Navigating Middle to high school transitions
Managing School transfers
Enhancing Executive Functioning Skills
Fostering Self-Advocacy
Developing Character and Resilience
Providing Social and Emotional Support
