Your Common App essay needs to be compelling and smooth, yet authentic. How to achieve this? Let me guide you to crafting a powerhouse essay. The Common App is even more important now that the SAT is not being considered on applications as frequently. This 650-word limit can seem like too much, and yet not enough! I have extensive experience in helping students meet the criteria with success. I get it--it can be daunting to even begin these essays, because the stakes feel so enormous. ... Read more

- Bloomfield , Connecticut ( 06002 )
- 10 miles
A person has to want to learn. When there is nothing but confusion about a concept or operation, and failure has been a part of the instruction, a student is more likely to succeed in understanding if they have formulated a question about what they don't know.

It makes the instruction on their terms and provides enthusiasm about solving a problem of their own creation. It is especial... Read more
