“Alisha is very patient and supportive! She is genuinely invested in helping me to achieve my best as she guided me through helping me with brainstorming, refining ideas, and revising the writing itself. I appreciated her effort throughout the process and her encouragement all along! Without her, I wouldn’t have gotten into top colleges!”

“If there was only one thing you should keep doing, it’d be getting to know your students like you did with me. You finding out about me and my personality, activities, etc. sometimes made me feel like you know me better than I know myself (LOL) because you came up with really good ideas and things to mention in my essays + your comments on my drafts made me think deeper about what I can change/add to my essays to make them better.”

“I really appreciate the guidance that reflects my own experience and guides me to write things in a more compelling way; moreover, I appreciate that you actively provide detailed and constructive feedback to help refine my essays while keeping my authentic voice intact. It made a huge difference in making my application feel like a true reflection of me.”

“You have no idea how much this means to me, during last 5 years I keep doubt that did I made right decision for my son which let him came to US and study in New York public school. His teachers haven’t been so supportive, also school stressed me all time, especially this application process. But saw the offer from USC , I finally freed me from the thought cage and feel not guilty anymore!

If he use my way , we would had a lot of fight, and he wouldn’t learned so much, and I wouldn’t see he has the ability to solve problems. I’m a mom have so much insecurities and also want everything under control.

I think you gave everything you can do for support us! Especially the finance aid stuff, I don’t know any other will do this for me if I just randomly find anyone online. you just came from nowhere , helped me like the genie of Aladdin's lamp😂!”

“My brainstorming sessions with Matt were the most enjoyable of all. I shared my most genuine thoughts and stories that I have never told anybody before. This process not only reflected my true self in the essays, but made the writing process much quicker and efficient.”

“During my time working with Alisha, I was able to improve my application work drastically. She helped me to stayed organized from start to finish, with everything planned out, which helped me to stay on track with all my work. Then going from my sketchy drafts to the polished final product, Alisha was able to help me express myself in a way I didn’t think I could. She guided me with brilliant suggestions and unique writing techniques that brought my work to a new level. I really enjoyed working with Alisha, and her contributions to my application succession is no doubt significant.”

“Big shoutout to Alisha! Seriously, she broke down how to actually write a personal statement, making it way less intimidating than I thought. I also appreciated her flexibility with my crazy schedule. Couldn’t have survived this application journey without your support. Thank you so much!”

“At first I was so overwhelmed with the amount of essays I had to write for the 20+ colleges on my list, so I found the organization tools especially helpful as they allowed me to have a focused direction for writing. I couldn’t have started the essays as easily I did without your guidance.”
