Member, New Jersey Association for College Admission Counseling (NJACAC). I am a professional writer with a New York Times background. I taught writing for 9 years at Drew University in New Jersey. I have become schooled in the intricacies of the college selection and application process, as well as the financial aid labyrinth, and have helped numerous students and parents over the past several years in these challenging and time-consuming areas, making the process less daunting for them....

Steven is an excellent teacher. He is patient, tactful, and creative in his approach to both, a student, and a parent. Steven helped our son with college essays - main essay for college app, as well as supplementary questions for each school. It was a collaboration effort between Steve and our son, where every line and every word was carefully scrutinized, main ideas and thesis closely examined, but at the same time my son never felt pressured into writing something he did not agree with, which was very important. Steve was very flexible in terms of schedule, and responded very quickly to emails. We were very happy with our tutor choice and will recommend Steve to anyone for his work ethics, skills, and attitude. Thank you, Steve!
