Before working with Ms. Kim, I had no clear direction for my college essay. She helped me discover meaningful topics using simple methods and gave feedback that was clear, actionable and easy to follow.

My essay ended up focusing on a significant personal challenge I had avoided throughout high school and how finally facing it changed my life for the better.

Thanks to Ms. Kim, I was able to express some very personal experiences in a way that felt authentic and impactful. Thanks to her support, I not only wrote an essay I'm extremely proud of, but I also gained acceptance to my top-choice university with a $20k/year scholarship, as well as to Michigan State University, my mother's alma mater.

Ms. Kim's approach to college essay writing made this entire process manageable, insightful and empowering.
