How do you tackle the toughest part of college applications: the essays?

As a parent, you may be concerned that your student does not understand the magnitude of this process, much less know how to best approach it. And you may be feeling concerned about your ability as a family to guide them to success. How will your teenager differentiate themselves without drowning in a sea of applicants? 

Their best bet for standing out to admissions officers is through crafting winning college essays! These essays require personal narrative writing which is not often taught in high school. Even great young writers are simply not equipped with the tools necessary to write compelling personal statements and outstanding supplementary essays.

Who do you turn to for Support?

Guidance Counselors are not enough...

WITHOUT PERSONALIZED GUIDANCE THE COLLEGE APPLICATION PROCESS IS A NIGHTMARE

1.

Applying to as many schools as possible to throw spaghetti on the wall and see what sticks is a strategy that only guarantees stress, overwhelm and disappointment. You need to navigate the college list to identify your child’s safety schools, target schools and dream schools.

2.

Having the best grades and highest test scores can't hurt - but a remarkable Personal Statement is necessary to avoid getting lost in a sea of applicants with similar grades and test scores. To make admissions officers feel lucky to have your student in their school, you need to write Supplemental Essays uniquely catered to each school to which they’re applying.

3.

So much of the success of your teenager’s future depends on them making well thought out decisions and completing their application essays on time. They need to build a College Toolkit: a collection of planners and organization tools to ensure they’re writing the best essays possible and have them ready ahead of schedule.

Craft Your Best College Essay!

Hi, Nicole here! I support high school juniors and seniors craft compelling college essays that WOW application readers through personalized private writing coaching.

Get your student accepted into their Best-Fit College!

When I was a high school student applying for college, I knew I needed to lean into the power of storytelling to write a remarkable personal statement. I had to dig deep into myself to identify what made me an amazing candidate for my dream school and share my story with courage, vulnerability and authenticity.

That extra effort I put in worked! I got an early decision admittance into Northwestern University which was my #1 choice and also a Top 10 School! I went on to graduate summa cum laude and with honors and then embarked on my own journey toward storytelling mastery.

Over a decade ago, I launched a live storytelling event called Oral Fixation where I work with amateur writers on crafting juicy and compelling personal stories. A patron of the show asked me to assist her high school senior with his college essays.

When I started working with her son, he didn’t fully see his potential and thought he’d attend a wonderful school for which I could see he was overqualified: Notre Dame. But as we worked together I asked him thought provoking questions that gave him tons of AHA moments that changed the way he saw himself and his future. He ended up getting into his dream school: Dartmouth University!

It felt so good to go through this process with this student and his parents and with Ivy League results. So I kept doing it!

Most students understand how to write a paper, integrate quotes from sources, and analyze works of literature. However, most high schools don’t offer specific coursework dedicated to expressing personal stories on the page. Because of my experience as an actor, director and storyteller, I deeply understand the three-act structure and the trajectory of transformation that defines every great story.

So I blended all of these experiences together to create Your Best Essay as a resource for parents and students to develop essay writing skills and execute them to amazing results that change lives for the better.

IMAGINE GETTING ACCEPTANCE LETTERS from their dream school!
